Lovely game btw DrPinkcake

episode 3 was legendary...please don't acting lessons me now :P

Ok, I'm sorry I read it in a different way. Sarcasm doesn't work in written form. :) Yes, RTX technology is being embraced in rendering by the big render engines. At the moment the new software have a 25% speed increase using this technology and with future improvements they estimate it to go up to 100% faster.

@DrPinkCake This software is amazing. I've always wondered how you make these incredibly realistic ray-tracing. Just out of curiosity, aren't there optimisations using Nvidia's RTX cards that can do this kind of thing much faster?

That was my sense of humor with regards to gaming. I really didn't mean it that way.

A 5 second animation includes 150 frames @30fps. I render each frame for maximum 2 hours to achieve my quality. That's 300 hours = 12.5 days for one animation. My last update had 99 animations. If you think this sounds unfeasible, you should educate yourself about game development with DAZ3D. It's very insulting to insinuate that I'm lying.

Don't pretend a PC crammed with GPUs will only be used for animations!

quick thought. Would semester be more appropriate than season? Love the game...

Okay, thats very interesting. Even on easy i have to slow down the Game with Cheat Engine to have a chance. On hardmode the symbols only blink and bam ive got the hit.

Discovered this game over the weekend, played it thinking it would just be some nice sexy fun...ended up so engrossed in the story that I got a bit of mini-mid-life crisis depression missing my college years. Can't wait for the next episode!

Perhaps on hard, you only get one or two tries instead of just being able to do it until again and again until you force the win

DrPinkCake

It's an interesting suggestion. I find brawler at hard easy, too. I'm going to think about how it could be designed to be more unforgiving.

I love sage's hair but I agree with you about Maya

BadLuckTobby

I'm wondering if in episode 4 we could add an extra hard to brawler? I found that after a little bit of practice, I'm talking 5 mins, you could beat hard without ever going to the store. After that, it just gets easier and easier until its barely a challenge at all. I don't know what the reward would perhaps some more money? Idk just found hard wasnt that hard.

Just saw Maya with a ponytail, waaaaaaaaay better :D

Great game, its a lot of fun to play but am i the only one wondering about the hair styles of the ladies? They were so much better in Acting Lessons :O esp. Sage and Maya look like they went to a 70's hairdresser :D Still, nothing really to complain, love your games :)

DrPinkCake

:) Yeah, she hasn't won a special poll yet. Neither have Maya, Quinn and Camila. That poll is one of my favorites.

hope for sage special renders in episode 4. Looking forward to episode 4 after that cliffhanger.

DrPinkCake

It should be supplied with the binary.

The best way is to support his work and boost confidence.

Thanks for easy mode in brawler, finally I won!

how can we access the dev changelog for the game on a mac? i saw it on a walkthrough

If your really doing this game all by yourself man,im gonna say your a beast/your a monster your a legend man,i dont know how its possible but i guess it is.And i wish you all the best in your future updates and games ima keep following your work.

Messè

I agree. Brawler is perfect now. Also how seamlessly the fight scenes are from the Action Phase.

RockyDoc79

Great characters, great story, really superb writing and action. I'm enjoying DIK completely.

Streetmagik

Game is great. Best I've played in this genre. Your character writing is on point! It's impossible to not become invested in the different characters. Can't wait for the next chapter. The end of 3 left my jaw on the floor!!

This game is so awesome I had to play it over from the beginning for both DIK and CHICK paths....Both MCs skills are at max at the beginning of 3.1. Keep the Brawler the way it is......im loving it.
