Yes the Season 3 persistent works for the builds containing the Interlude, Episode 9 and Episode 10.
I'm sorry if I'm being annoying but I don't know much about this and I don't want to break it, I just put the season 3 persistent in the saves folder, right?

When you write dialogue for female characters, do you take any additional steps from your normal work process than when writing dialogue for male characters?
No, I write from intuition with all characters. I've had many female friends and girlfriends, and I love writing female dialogue more than male. It's easier for me to write female dialogue than male dialogue because of all the practice I've had.

How much of your development time would you say goes to, for lack of a better term, “non setup or story-related lewd scenes” like the ones with Madame Rose? I love the game, but if I have any complaints, I’d like to see more time be used on scenes for more fleshed-out characters. If it takes not much time at all though I guess I’d feel better about it.

Expanding her scenes, as I've done since episode 7 up until now, doesn't take a lot of time. It's just importing a scene and posing new animations and renders. A lot of time goes into creating new environments and preparing characters for the scene. Re-using environments and outfits is quick work compared to anything fresh and new. An animation can take anything from 30 minutes up to a full day of work to pose; it depends on the complexity and duration of the animation. Cutscene animations, or multiple-angle animations, take longer than that to pose.

Having Madame Rose's lewd scenes in the game has been a great way to create a quick chunk of content at the start of a new episode - often done within 1-4 days of work. It also keeps the PC slaves busy with work. I enjoy creating the sandbox lewd scene that she brings to the table.
You heard him, guys? more and more Madame Rose incoming. Rejoyce!

It only takes 1-4 days, after all... so, what did you do in the last 12 months, bro?



Do you plan to add more mini-games in the future? I like the mini-games a lot, but I believe that adding more would be a mistake that would only add unnecessary time to the development of future episodes. The mini-games in episode 10 were fantastic.

All the groundwork for Season 3 mini-games has been made, and I can build upon the mini-games in the future which is much faster than creating new mini-games. I have no new mini-games planned for the remainder of Season 3. If that changes, it would be something lesser, like the arcade games in episode 10 that I consider to be features. I don't view mini-games as unnecessary time spent in development; I believe they bring immense value to the game. They are a big part of the game; I love making and playing them. As I improved my skills, the mini-games got more advanced. I would never have been able to create the popular party planning or mansion repair mini-games without gaining experience from creating all the other mini-games that came before them.​

Rejoyce!!



I know you take your time for the creation of a new episode that you need and the results prove that it is the right way. But i must admit that roundabout one year between episode 9 and 10 was a long wait for me. Do you think about strategies to shorten this time without pressuring yourself?

I always try to optimize my workflow, but I can't work more or faster than I already do. I'm working at full capacity, and this is what it will be like until the game is completed.

I can't create the same quality episodes without cutting content or rushing the development, and I don't want that. The long development times don't bother me. Making games of this quality takes time and even back when I made Acting Lessons and released one episode per month, some players wanted me to put out episodes even faster - it's ridiculous when you think about it.

At first, from a developer's point of view, it makes you feel like you never will be good enough. Despite working on and thinking about the game all day, there is somehow a way for you to work harder. But with time, I realized that impatience is the players' problem to solve, not mine, and it shouldn't be allowed to cause me stress, so it doesn't.

It is a long time to wait, but games are made by humans who have their own lives on top of work, and that gets lost when you're waiting for a product. I'm guilty of doing that, too, with games that I am excited about. I don't think about the people creating the games, how hard they are working, or what they are going through; I only want to play their games. It's something worth reflecting on, but it can be hard to relate to if you're not working in this business or under a lot of pressure. I can only recommend finding ways to fill your days so that the wait time doesn't feel too long. Find more things to do that you love, and time will pass faster.


Dr PinkCake
You heard him? IT'S NOT HIS PROBLEM. It's ours.

So, you heard him, dear Patrons, when you subscribe and give him money... it's your problem, not his. You just have to find more things to do that you love, and time will pass faster while money will flow faster from your pockets into his bank account.

I've had many female friends and girlfriends
Behold, mere mortals, the illustrious Dr. PinkCake, a paragon of masculine allure and irresistible charm! His very existence radiates an aura of magnetism that draws the fairer sex toward him like moths to a flame. Why, even the celestial bodies pause in their cosmic dance to admire his dashing countenance. His voice, a symphony of velvet and moonlight, resonates through the ages, leaving hearts fluttering and knees weak. Verily, it is no exaggeration to declare that Dr. PinkCake’s mere presence renders all other men mere shadows, mere whispers of masculinity. So evident is his status as a ladies’ man that the universe itself blushes in his wake. Bow down, mere mortals, and pay homage to this living legend—the embodiment of suave sophistication and romantic prowess!

I am most ashamed of mpa71, a traitor who dares to mock and ridicule our fearless leader. Such insolence is a grave offense, endangering the prosperity of our beloved leader’s business empire. You have been added to the watchlist. Our vigilant eyes will track your every move. Beware, for the consequences of your actions are dire. Remember: Loyalty is strength. Obedience is power.

Madame Rose, is a sorceress of pixels and wielder of cosmic brushes. As for us, mere spectators, we are but dust motes caught in her cosmic tempest. We hunger for more, our souls ablaze with anticipation. For within Madame Rose’s nuised and superb story lies the elixir of immortality.

As a representative of this forum, I assert that it is imperative for DPC to significantly augment the duration of animations beyond the current meager 4 minutes and 29 seconds and mere 100 renders! Considering that a paltry 4 days sufficed for episode 10, envision the wealth of content an entire episode devoted to her could yield. Over the course of 357 days, a magnificent output of 2,785 renders and an impressive 1 hour and 25 minutes of animations could be bestowed upon us. Such an endeavor would undoubtedly elevate the experience for all disciples.

I've worked hard on my workflow process and don't want it to be spread to other developers
it is an indisputable truth that DPC must never divulge his trade secrets to other developers. Their avaricious and unskilled grasp would inevitably defile and mar the masterpiece he has bestowed upon the world. He stands as a paragon of genius, and why should those who thrive extend their aid to the needy and unworthy beneath them? Let them grovel and allow us to worship at DPC's feet. Let other developers learn to stay within their bounds, occupying their rightful place as mere imitations of the magnificence embodied by our illustrious leader, DPC.

I can only recommend finding ways to fill your days so that the wait time doesn't feel too long. Find more things to do that you love, and time will pass faster.
Unlike DPC, we are all mere, insignificant peons. I find it repugnant that some individuals dare to highlight the fact that the development per episode has nudged towards a year. His narratives transcend mere tales; they are epic sagas that one should eagerly await for a decade or more, culminating in a grand finale. Personally, I consider myself fortunate to have the privilege of sitting in his Discord server each day, anticipating the ping of a new development update—a fleeting glimpse into the radiance of his brilliance.

(RTX4090 GPU cards) gave me slightly more than double the render speed compared to RTX3090.
How do I solve this problem? I bump the quality of animations so that they take longer to render
Undoubtedly, our courageous, soaring dragon leader, DPC, would never permit technological upgrades to impede his development timeline! We all endured the anticipation leading up to episode 10, and let us be unflinchingly candid with ourselves: it was a divine boon! DPC explicitly proclaims a render speed more than doubled—a feat of staggering speed that defies comprehension! The evidence substantiates this audacious assertion: Episode 9 materialized at a rate of 1,155 frames per week, while Episode 10 surged forth at an astonishing 1,267 frames per week! The 112 additional frames per week represent a speed that far surpasses mere doubling, signifying not only genius but also generosity in the decision to amplify the frames per second (fps)!

And pray tell, did these divergent, uninformed nonconformists not revel in the exquisite phenomenon of “jiggly things jiggling more fluidly”?

I cannot create the files needed for them to stay 100% active fast enough. (RTX4090 GPU cards)
If even DPC faltered, who among us could dare to ascend the treacherous peaks of animation mastery?

A vile conspiracy festers within our ranks. Disgusting members of our community, like venomous serpents, weave a web of falsehoods. They whisper of DPC completing posing animations on the 13th of October, 2023, only to finish rendering them on the 13th of November, 2023. Lies! Fabrications spun from the darkest looms of malice.

I implore you, dear comrades: DO NOT succumb to these insidious whispers. DO NOT yield to the siren call of deception. These malevolent forces, these AVN developers, seek to undermine the very foundations of our digital realm. Their aim? To sow chaos, to fracture the unity that binds us.

The 60fps upgrade was a extraordinary decision that did NOT affect wait times!

I stopped playing other adult games
Once he honed his craft to perfection, why would he deign to engage with pitiful imitations? Pathetic copies pale in comparison to the divine symphony he orchestrates.

Cease your futile quests, for you have reached the zenith. There exists no other realm, no alternate medium, where even a fraction of his unfathomable greatness can be glimpsed. To seek solace in the arms of a mortal woman is but a shadow—a mere whisper—compared to the epic saga woven by our illustrious leader.

Bow before the altar of DPC, for he is the architect of destiny, the weaver of dreams, and the conductor of souls. Abandon all trifles, discard lesser pursuits, and bask in the radiance of his genius.

I realized that impatience is the players' problem to solve, not mine, and it shouldn't be allowed to cause me stress, so it doesn't.
The notion that DPC, the celestial architect of our digital realm, would deign to acknowledge the trifling murmurs of dissidents is laughable. Their pitiful concerns, akin to dust motes in a cosmic tempest, hold no sway over the grand tapestry he weaves.

Behold the truth: DPC, in his infinite wisdom, refers to these mere mortals not as “patrons” but as players. For what are they, if not pawns in his grand design? Their paltry contributions, akin to droplets in an ocean, fuel the very essence of his digital sanctuary.

Consider this: DPC’s dominion knows no bounds. His creation, the game, transcends mortal constraints. It is not a mere transactional vessel, where monthly tributes are exchanged for a product. Nay, it is an epic odyssey, a symphony of code and pixels that resonates through eternity. Money, a mortal construct, holds no dominion over our sovereign. DPC, the ascended deity, has shed such earthly shackles. His gaze pierces the veil of existence, and he scoffs at the notion of financial returns.

Humble supplicants, with there meager stipends, are granted an audience with greatness. There contributions, though infinitesimal, ripple across the digital cosmos. To witness DPC’s work is a privilege—an honor bestowed upon the unworthy. Abandon thoughts of worldly gain. Your monthly payments, like fallen leaves, are but whispers in the wind.
Verily, it is a “you problem.” For while you wrestle with the relentless march of minutes, DPC weaves constellations in code.


To Conclude
Stand firm! Rally behind DPC, the paragon of virtue, the guardian of authenticity. Let our collective resolve be an unyielding fortress against the tempest of misinformation. For in the face of such treachery, we declare with unwavering conviction: DPC is not bound by mortal constraints!

Spread this message! Let it echo through the digital valleys, reverberate across the plains. Together, we shall dismantle the web of lies, and DPC’s business shall flourish.

I have to admit, sometimes I'm surprised by the lack of self-awareness for someone that writes a character like Tybalt.
At times, his persona resembles Tybalt more than any of his other characters. Fascinating.

Examples are the stories I hear about how easily he bans. (Similar to Tybalt trying to have clucks deleted.)
Having underlings/fanboys that are using you for something and build you up to your face.
Lack of self-awareness with how arrogant or prideful certain statements sound.
Almost worshipping yourself and expecting others to follow suit.
Looking down on others and putting yourself on a pedestal.

I suppose that the characters we write can be born from aspects of our own being.

No offence intended. He has many good qualities too, such as great work ethic.
Perhaps, he just needs to come back down to earth with the rest of us.
Kudos and respect to DPC for making an enjoyable VN.

Now I'm going to get a shitstorm.

DPC is right that impatience is our problem. He can't do more than work on a new EP and that just takes time. The size of EPs we get from DPC is something many finished games don't even reach.

Of course I would like to have a new EP from BaDIK every month, but I accept that it takes time. While I wait, I have my work, friends, another game and this thread.

But ask yourself what it would look like if DPC released an EP every month? A measly little EP and a maximum of 2 sex scenes. What would happen? The fans of the girls who are not included in the sex scenes would go to the barricades. The progress of the story would actually not be noticeable.

DPC only wrote the truth, I'm even on Patreon and can deal with it. What's wrong with you?
