Status update Episode 8
While my PCs are working on the animation queue, I've spent this week producing static renders and designed free-roam environments.
I completed a bit more than half of the art for this particular free-roam event, so I expect to finish it next week.
After that, I will continue to pose static renders of normal scenes. I don't have an accurate estimation of this progress. I did play the episode for a bit the other day, and I could play ~1.5 hours without any gaps in missing art.
I estimate what's left in the animation queue to be the equivalent of 6000-8000 frames.
I've gotten many questions regarding the Steam version of Season 2, and I aim to work on it full-time around the Patreon release of episode 8 before starting any work on Season 3. There will be more information about it in the not too distant future.
Have a nice weekend

Will you be doing seasons like Semesters? Or is it just a few in game weeks at a time?
i wonder when will it be released?
I have had perpetual blue balls since the first little hint of Bella becoming the star of one of your top notch animated scenes (truly in this game in regards to renders and animated scenes I have spent a lot of time, more time than I care to admit, trying to find a better or even equal yours) I mean that would have been enough to get me but then you go and make the game actually fun (sometimes I just get on there to play the fighting mini game lol and the storylines worth investing in. You should seriously consider hiring help and expanding your studio to the level of multiple games developing at once because I realised when I went back and played your first one after I liked being a dik so much that you were just as good at then just didn’t have the time or equipment to get so detailed and creative. Anyway looking forward to the release in the morning Wish I could donate more
DrP has said he does not intend to ever hire extra staff. Reason for it is because he is a perfectionist and would be looking over their shoulder(s) constantly and nitpicking every little detail. I think he should do a hostile takeover of EA as a whole and fire every one of those morons that give EA such a horrible reputation. I'm happy though with him just going as he has been. Might burn him out to take on too much, like multiple game at once.
I can honestly say this game is one I keep coming back too - keep plugging away, I enjoy just slapping the nerds in the fighting game!
Picked this up last week and I've laughed a lot. Great work Doc. Hate to ask a few repetitive questions but I don't know that I can find it among all the posts and comments. Any eta on episode 8? Any hint as to how many chapters there will be? Great work on Acting Lessons, too. Fun game
Usually a few months between episode releases and the last episode was released at the start of May. I'm hoping for an August release but more realstically september or October TBH
When I first found this game, I was for the sex scene, but as the game progressed, I was fascinated by the plot. You are a great game maker.
by the way i first find it on the steam maybe next season steam will faster? best wish good luck
Thanks for the update.
Speaking of Steam, now that they’ve announced their Steam Deck handheld device, you’ll be able to take BaDIK (and all your other games) around with you…so an update on that version would be great…
You can just install "Windows" on Steam Deck and play Patreon version.
:Give_Bella:
wow we dont mind the wait but it sounds like you could use more staff to help you out. looking forward the next release.
Waiting almost patiently in anticipation Doc :)
Love you Dr <3
YES!!! with the confirmation of season 3, I foresee continued blueballing from Jill in ep 8. I love the long tease. For real though, I excited for what's to come. Awesome work Dr.
cant wait for it to be done i am def excited
Eagerly waiting ♥
Is there any differences between Patreon version and Steam version? I mean like, storywise, or animationwise etc?
no it's the same game. Only diffrence is patreon version gives you each episode on its release while Steam packs 4 episodes together and gives you a season. But the gameplay experience is exactly the same in both versions.
Thanks for the update!
thx mate!
What they all said! ^^^ This is one of the best games I've come across and am excited to see what comes next!
Thanks, Pink!
Just know that there will be season 3 makes me happy😆😆😆
Can't wait to play, the ending to episode 7 was so much of an attention hook that the wait for 8 is difficult lol.
