Status update Episode 7
Added 2021-01-22 12:46:52 +0000 UTC
This week I've been writing dialogue and coding phone and free roam content.
I haven't posed many static renders, but I did pose all animations for one lewd scene, and they are currently rendering.
There are 13 animations in the queue, and 173 animations are completed. The duration of the completed animations, so far, is 12 min 15 s; roughly 3.5 minutes longer than episode 6.
I have 2 Β½ planned lewd scenes left to pose for, so I will likely overshoot last week's estimate a bit. 200-230 animations total for episode 7 is the new estimation.
Next week, I will continue to write the story and code.
I'm making good progress, but there's a lot left to do under the hood despite the high render and animation count.
So, let me try to paint a picture of the current state of the code for you.
The update's main file has ~7100 lines of code; it can be compared to episode 6 with ~11100.
The free roam code of episode 7 has ~6300 lines; it can be compared to episode 6 with ~5200.
I've mapped out most events in the update, and I have ~30 scenes (normal scenes and including any free roam events and/or hangouts) left to write and pose art for.
The episode will likely be bigger than episode 6 when I'm finished.
The reason updates are getting bigger is that I don't want to cut any story content to fit a deadline.
I'm not counting the lines of code written for the new feature I revealed a few weeks ago (I won't spoil what it is if you chose not to read that update), but content-wise, it has ~600 GUI elements (Rendered and/or photoshopped) and 73 script files.
I hope this gave you a slightly better understanding of what's going on when I say that I'm writing/coding.
In poll news, Titty sucking and Groping/Squeezing won the recent poll for animation types. They will get featured in a lewd scene in episode 7.
Have a nice weekend

2021-01-25 13:12:18 +0000 UTCAbsolutely have to agree, so easy to connect with every character and the story is phenomenal. Actually had to sit down for a bit following the end of the current update. Plus the music is absolutely killer, best music in a game I've heard in a long long time.

2021-01-24 00:47:44 +0000 UTCGod damn if you didn't get me playing D&D with your game. Definitely my favorite part of the game so far! Hope to see of the D&D scenes soon!
2021-01-23 19:51:36 +0000 UTCEvery day I am waiting for the new episode)
2021-01-23 17:57:51 +0000 UTCThanks for the update DrPinkCake π€
Jill Valentine
2021-01-23 16:59:45 +0000 UTCRespects from here! What distincts the BADIK from the rest is the realist storyline, individually constructed characters and the slow built storytelling - and that is an absolut compliment. Suspension builds slowly, and A player must patiently wait the reward. Top work Mr. PC!!

2021-01-23 16:20:42 +0000 UTCPatch as usual, and I don't see any future event that would prevent patches for the game duration. Even if the changes were retroactive, patching is usually possible thanks to the modularity of RenPy. With every patch, you always get updated code for any bug fix/change to Episodes 1-current episode.

2021-01-23 06:56:10 +0000 UTCHi DPC - considering the new feature(s) being included as part of the next update, will we still be getting a patch version for EP 7? Or will it require downloading the entire game?

2021-01-22 20:37:50 +0000 UTCThat entire scene from him going to their "date" drunk to going back to her place is hilarious. I played it again just the other night myself, and damn I love this game.
2021-01-22 19:47:27 +0000 UTCDont worry about a release date i would rather wait and have no cut content then get it sooner but have stuff cut out

2021-01-22 16:21:40 +0000 UTCQuality of your story is indeed more important than the deadline. Thanks for the update Dr PinkCake !
2021-01-22 16:07:08 +0000 UTCAwesome work, DPC!! Keep it up.

Sadie Adler
2021-01-22 15:25:45 +0000 UTCI'm 100% agree. Even though lewd scenes are a +, the story is so well written and told that lewd scenes have, in my opinion, become just a bonus. Keep up the good work and take your time for good quality ππ

2021-01-22 15:21:15 +0000 UTCHer name is Quinn and I agree she was very vulnerable in episode 6. I hope we see more of that side of her in future updates.

2021-01-22 14:24:48 +0000 UTCStarted a new game a few days ago. I forgot how funny the game is, especially the drunk scene at you-know-who's house. Keep up the great work.
BoxerB
2021-01-22 14:17:44 +0000 UTCHonestly you can skip the lewd stuff at this point because the story in itself is absolutely fantastic. It's honestly been a while since I've been extremely captivated by a story.
