Status update
This update is meant to communicate what I've been working on since release and what I will do for the next couple of weeks.
First off, thanks a lot to the Patreon & Discord community for reporting bugs and sending me feedback; it's been really helpful.
Season 1 is now available to the +$5 tiers until February 7. After February 7, Season 1 will be available in the $10 tier, due to the Steam release.
Speaking of the Steam release, I've been busy working on it. I'm expecting to push the final release build to Steamworks in the next week or two.
I will be picking the winners of the Steam key lottery before the release, so make sure you enter the lottery here, if you want to participate.
The walkthrough for Season 1 will be released this weekend to the +$15 tiers.
The President tier orders will also be released this weekend to the +$75 tiers.
I've started pre-production on Episode 5 (Season 2) and my PCs have been rendering animations for just about two weeks now.
I will soon start the polls for Episode 5. There are some exciting polls coming up.
February is going to be a very busy time for me and I will do my best to post interesting content and keep you updated on the progress.
Have a nice weekend

Did the walkthrough get released over the weekend? If not I understand, just seeing if I missed it.
Never mind....I found it lol
Can't wait to play it on steam
Thanks for the update DrPinkCake 💗
I love how you keep us updated on what's going on, makes supporting you so so much easier lol. BELLA WITH SUNGLASSES PLS
Good luck with the steam release DPC. Season 1 is awesome! Thank god you and philly came along to raise the bar! Can we expect a similar animation quality in ep 4 throughout season 2?
Animating is one of my favorite things to do so I will keep on trying to improve and come up with new stuff.
I'm happy all this worked out so well for you! Btw is the humongous size of the last update what you're going for from now on or was that an exception? Personally I rather wait longer for bigger episodes
I'm happy to hear you liked the big episode, considering the long wait for it. Episode 4 needed to be this big due to the three main branches and because I decided to fit in Saturday in the game to get a good ending to Season 1. The size of the future episodes will vary. So far it's been been bigger and bigger with each episode. That can obviously not continue forever. My aim is to fit in a good amount of content for most characters and find natural breakpoints for each episode. I want the players to get at least 1-2 hours of playtime per playthrough each episode. That is what decides the episode length.
You're amazing. Thanks for doing this game. I think this is the only Western VN that is up to the quality writing of some Japanese VNs. Currently waiting for the walkthrough to replay the game from the beggining.
Can't wait for the next installment. Thanks mate.
I have a question, if a comment 3 times on the post of the lottery i'm gonna get 3 keys or just 1? It's for the number of comments or for user that comment?
Don't worry, I will extract user names and select randomly from that. Only one entry per person will count.
Tell us, after working full time on your game? happy to release when you want?
I'm very happy with the current workflow, yes. I see it like Netflix sees their content producers, they don't limit content to fit in ads or anything else. They get to put everything they want in their series/movies which sometimes causes odd durations of episodes etc. Pure artistic freedom. I will continue to work this way.
Sounds great, the last update was really good! You say that Season 1 will only be available to $5 until Feb 7th, is that temporary for the Steam release?
Appreciate the update! Keep up the good work! I'm dyin' to play the new episode!
This game is just amazing, great work :)
Keep up the great work DrPinkCake! Love season 1 very much!
Keep up the good work, DrPink. Can't wait for the Steam release!
Thanks for the update Pink,looking forward to the Steam release!
