Another week flew by. My PCs have been rendering a mix of animations and static renders and I have been writing a lot of dialogue.
The layout of the Episode is coming together and I can already tell it will be a big one, mostly due to the branches you probably have predicted based on Episode 3.
I don't have any details to share about the Episode at the moment, but I'm moving forward at a steady pace. I'm hoping to post the first preview of Episode 4 sometime next week.

2019-09-01 19:29:44 +0000 UTC View PostToday, Being A DIK Episodes 1-3 were released for +$5 tiers. The patched version works well and the corrections I've made since its release have been typos. The next version of the game will be v0.4.0 including Episode 4.
If you check my front page you will notice that it's called Season 1. In case you missed that information, this means that I'm splitting the game into a new binary starting Season 2. This makes the game easier to download and the name "Season" doesn't imply anything el...
2019-08-30 07:18:47 +0000 UTC View PostThank you all for the support and great feedback after Episode 3 release. For those of you who had the chance to play it, I hope you enjoyed it!
The $5 tier hasn't had the chance to play it yet, so I will keep my posts spoiler free until they do (Friday 30th August).
This week has been all about dealing with the aftermath of the Episode 3 release.
I'm very happy with the overall result, but I did release a patch to take care of the intermittent crashes players of low end PCs...
2019-08-23 10:24:21 +0000 UTC View PostHi!
I need your help.
I've been getting reports about crashes/memory leaks, but most of the reports come from players of illegal/modified versions of my game, which makes it really hard for me to know if there is a problem on my end. These issues weren't found during beta testing (with 8 players).
I wanted to make sure that my patrons aren't experiencing any of these reported issues.
Please answer this survey truthfully and if you faced any issues during the update leave a c...
2019-08-19 14:11:37 +0000 UTC View PostI've noticed several reports of crashing/memory leaks/gallery issues/save games not working.
The problems you're having are due to using unofficial mods with the game.
Those mods likely affect your persistent file in a way that's not compatible with my recent build, that in turn will mess with every saved game or new game you start.
I can't help you with bugs that are due to this problem because I did not create those mods.
One user fixed it by reinsta...

Wow... I'm speechless.
2000 wonderful supporters! I have no clue how it happened, it went so fast during the last stretch, but this is a monumental day for me.
I'm so blessed to have your support. I have ordered an animation PC as a reward for reaching the milestone, as promised, and that makes me very excited!
To be able to add longer/more animations to each episode is something I really want to do.

2019-08-12 20:11:56 +0000 UTC View PostI'm back at my IRL job after my vacation. This week I've focused on polishing Episode 3 and pre-production of Episode 4.
I'll keep this update short because there's really only one thing you need to know...

2019-08-09 13:09:02 +0000 UTC View PostFirst off, a warm welcome to all new patrons, I really appreciate your support!
I loved the week that just passed, it was very different and frankly overwhelming. I had to work a bit on the Steam release of Acting Lessons that I'm very happy with.
And I had a lot of time to polish Being a DIK. I have done crazy amounts of work on just about everything in the game.
You will find it very different in terms of design and I have never been this satisfied with the look of the gam...
2019-08-02 11:42:05 +0000 UTC View PostI had a super productive week. Working one week full-time like this was amazing for me and for the game.
The current status of the development is very exciting!
I have finished almost every coding task and posed almost all static renders left for the episode. I have 6 animations left to pose and, in total, 14 left to render.
What this means is that there are some posing, beta testing, proof reading and waiting time left before I can release the Episode.
I have tried to...

Acting Lessons is released on Steam next Friday, July 26!
I have 100 Steam Keys that I will give to patrons who are supporting me.
Since there's no way for me to do this in a fair way I have decided to hold a lottery for them.
On Wednesday, I will randomly choose 100 patrons, who have commented on this post, to receive one Steam Key each for Acting Lessons.
Just two more days and I'm fully back from my vacation, meaning I have two whole weeks to work full-time on game development. I have recharged my batteries, but I did work pretty much this week.
I have posed a lot of static renders and only a few scenes remain to be posed. Two scenes are missing some dialogue.
I have about 5-8 more animations to pose and render. The current animation queue has ~15 animations left to render.
I've done several coding tasks and there are ~10 le...
