Resetting (News about E13 and E14)
🕑 Added 2024-08-29 19:53:27 +0000 UTCHey guys, I hope you've all been well.
We've been struggling over here but we're finally nearing the end of that.
Technical issues that stemmed from the packaging issue and chaos afterward were persistent, they ballooned into many other issues. There have also been some life issues that popped up but we've been figuring all of it out. I lost my head for a bit but everything is going to work out. I'll go into more detail about the hardships we've faced after these updates are out where I can talk about things without running into any spoiler issues or anything like that.
Due to the issues and just where my head is at, we're going to be releasing everything in an admittedly silly way. Let me explain a bit...
After all of this is out, we intend on updating scene-by-scene. So as we finish a scene it will be uploaded as an official release. (We'll still have smaller betas for medium/large scenes)
To help bridge the gap between this large release and future plans and for the main reason which is to help ease my mind, we're going to be doing what I should have done a long time ago and we'll be releasing everything one scene at a time. It's not the ideal way of doing this at all, but we're way past ideal already. I want to be a part of the releases and this way is just the easiest on me right now.
These releases will be quick and available to all tiers and former patrons (via discord) at the same time.
Spoiler alert! Skip ahead to the next underlined text if you don't want to see some context on the scenes that will be uploaded!
E13 has 7 scenes remaining. There are already 4 existing scenes in the game for E13.
Here are the names and relative size for the remaining scenes in E13.
Large = 250-400 renders, Medium = 100-249 renders, Small = 1-99 renders
Scene 5 - Spunishment (Large)
Scene 6 - Autographs (Small)
Scene 7 - Daliah Intro (Large)
Scene 8 - Bull Beginnings (Medium)
Scene 9 - Resort (Medium)
Scene 10 - Jasmine Date (Medium)
Scene 11 - Flight Home (Small)
Spoiler alert is over!
These releases will begin happening early tomorrow morning.
Due to some of the issues we've faced and solutions we've found, E13 has grown in size a little more. It's now close to 1200 renders.
These scenes will be uploaded by the end of August (There is an issue with two animations in the Jasmine scene but they should be fixed in time. I am willing to soft-launch it without those animations and add them later if need be), as soon as all of these are out we'll begin the process of uploading E14. Though we're still working on some scenes in E14 so those uploads will not be as frequent but we'll have them out as soon as possible. Everything in E14 should be up by relatively early in Sept.
Like I mentioned, we're aware that this way of doing things is silly and you can of course wait for everything to be uploaded to play it all at once.
As it stands right now it's just the easiest way for me to get these scenes out to you guys as quickly as we can without me losing it.
That's all I have to share for today, once again I am so sorry for how long everything has taken.
I do hope you guys will enjoy everything we've been working on. I'm excited to get this ugly chapter behind us and move forward into something much less messy and frustrating.
As always thank you guys so much for everything.
♥
EDIT:
The more I sit on it the more I realize the scene by scene was a dumb idea that if I was going to do I needed to start way earlier on. No reason to spam them out at this point, that doesn't really help anything right now. But as I've already set the expectation in the discord of up to the Daliah scene being released today (The 30th) I'm sticking to that. That will be up later today.
So there will be a release later tonight of about 800 renders, then tomorrow another release of about 500 renders. Episode 14 will still be released scene by scene through the early parts of September.

Come on Ty we all know as long as he has fanboys that continue to kiss his ass and tell him how amazing he is and what great work he's doing this will continue cause hell he can keep teasing a release then lie and fake a sorry and they'll keep paying him. Shit he could still make 8 grand a month or 96k a year it's a joke really i'll pay a dollar a month to just watch this train wreck of a game it's almost a game in itself with what excuse will he use this time and can we guess it before he writes it lmao
Aj Whitacre
if i remember he made close to 30 grand for June and July and there was no releases so he has fanboys that pay him to tell them there'll be a game and then turn around couple weeks later and say sorry i fucked up no game until this time then repeat the excuse and apology, and they tell him what great work he's doing and keep it up its insane really luckily i saw this after the basketball debacle and lowered my tier to lowest paying one like usd 1.00 its worth it to experience the train wreck he created
Ty Johnson
There's stalls there's lies, there's a bs fake excuse about packaging which you don't even need to know that much about computers let alone programming, to know that was one of the biggest bs out your butt to date. If you've really got it, release Eq3/E14 now. It's the only thing that could possibly redeem yourself. Otherwise keep lying and see your revenue dwindle til its gone
Nik
Yeah we are getting trolled here
nicolaj
At this point i have fully given up on you ever releasing anything ever again, its clear to me you just string people along for as long as possible because you most likely make a lot of money on this game and want to keep it that way. Instead of taking your game serious and building up your patreon your focus is, whats my next lie gonna be? how do i victimize myself?
DeadMan
Unpause and don't cause yourself any financial issues. The game is causing enough stress, don't add to it. I'll be on this in the morning, it's been a long day, I'm old and tired. Try to take a breath and relax ASAP.
andy roberto pech valdez
No va a llegar hoy porque crees que ya empezó con los cambios de que ya no va a soltar, ahora que solo una parte y así, siempre así empieza cuando no tiene listo nada
Aj Whitacre
I'm getting this deep sense of deja vu here like this scene has happened before..... oh wait it has happened for the last 7 months here we go again with the different reasons it's not out. everyone just believe it when you see it pinned on the top of the page otherwise its going to just frustrate and piss some off
Alfredo de Jesus Leon
Va haber o no va haber actualización hoy? Solo dinos eso por favor se honesto.
Braindrop
Another notice, things are still coming but will be pretty deep into the night. Furthermore, I no longer intend on unpausing pledges for the month. Me trying to do that was wrong and I feel guilty about it especially after breaking the promise over it. I can't pause for the rest of the year but I don't intend on unpausing until all of E14 is out as well.

Hello BD, Thank you for your update on the release schedule. I'm glad to see you're doing better. I look forward to playing the update. Be safe my friend.
Aj Whitacre
well lets just see what happens
Jay Weaver
well unfortunately for us both im loyal to a fault so im gonna stick around faults n all...alot of ppl wouldnt even bother to add what the troubles are as much as u have n i really respect that so yea u aint getting rid of me
Jonatan
I dont know men, at this point of waiting so log if you are TOTALLY confident about the release tomorrow just release all tomorrow. There is absolute no sense of split the update in 2 consecutive days and its just more work for you. Again, just if you are 100% sure that update comes tomorrow, if not there will be another shit storm. Anyway, its your product and you supposedly to know what is better for it.

The more I sit on it the more I realize the scene by scene was a dumb idea that if I was going to do I needed to start way earlier on.

i would rather wait for a full update then scene by scene which make no sense , it's like a story cut into pieces, i dont mind the wait but not a scene by scene , it is like a mood killer for me TBH.
AlphaXNeganFWVM😈
F por Jazmin yo tambiem quiero ver un escena con esa morena sabrosa 🔥
AlphaXNeganFWVM😈
So in short it is better to wait for everything to come out and then we can play everything in a row.¿? I don't really care just please don't leave us without content this time BD and I hope you read us and take some of our opinions as reconstructive criticism. 🔥💁
Bad Llama
Honestly, I don’t care how you do it, just please do it. The worst part about all this is giving us dates. Then have them lapse. Give an excuse. More dates. Lapse. And repeat.
Lordsnow22
most likely January 2025

De nuevo nada de sexo con Jasmine? Vengo pidiendolo desde hace mucho y nomás no pasa,el protagonista ya se acostó con todas menos con Jasmine 😭
treasure whitney
i will not be rescinding my pledge at all i am a loyal patron on here and always will be BD i love the work you have done from the first download to now and i will be here even when you eventually finish the game fully and stay when you update for a new game if you so wish to do so
Greens93
Yeah that is silly as fuck, but hell i'll take it at this point or we most likely have to wait another 2-3 months if not more. But considering it will be released like that it would probably be better playing it via Gamecore or something cause zipping those files every time it releases will be a headache.
Englen
lol, its absolutely beyond pathetic at this point, should be ashamed of yourself.
Jonatan
What the actual fuck
Aj Whitacre
oh trust me i knew what he was all about after the basketball debacle why i pay a dollar its shocking all the great work good to hear from you bullshit some people leave on here its sad and pathetic really oh and i guess so much for the episodes being released whether you want them released or not, looks like your still in control of the releases and all this cluster fuck is because of you BD you just couldn't step aside and allow it to be released nope you had to do all this bullshit just to ease your mind damn your the biggest snowflake I've ever met one dollar is all your worth to pay a month from now on
Ty Johnson
Well he showed that over the last year, but I called it, he didn't have E13 & 14 done like he claimed, that's why he can't refute it or release it. A scene at a time, that's pathetic. There is no technical issue that would require that. He is just getting a free ride from fans while doing no work.
Aj Whitacre
such fucking horseshit so its scene by scene now when we we're all told it was complete episodes, damn dude you cant even keep your lies straight its this way cause you haven't done shit like you told us you were you've fallen so far its now a joke but keep listening to the fanboys that blow you while telling you how amazing your doing and what great work it is bullshit this has become a full blown joke oh what happen to the pledges will be paused until 2025 you've finally shown everyone you cant be trusted on anything you write or say your now a proven liar
Snedden
yea supposably the rest of 13 will slowly release over the next few days then I am guessing we wont see 14 until mid to late next month
MrWiki
Scene by scene? Thats crazy and dumb, I think this is just going to make things worse but what can i do then just wait right? I will be waiting for episodes to come out not scenes ffs.
Ty Johnson
Ffs, there's no such thing as a packaging issue. Either you've never been able to release before, or you could release now, it's just that you can't because the content you promised to be done 3 months ago, is so far behind you can't even do 1/4th of it as an initial release. There are numerous ways to package data these days that I'd love to hear how in the world it could possibly affect releasing the data, especially in causing scene by scene releases. You're so full of shit man. Just be real. Should've stayed gone until you had everything done you promised was already done months ago. Ohhh there it is, you need pledges back on after the fake dramatic I'll cancel them the rest of the year, that no-one believed. Again it's your show, you have the right to go as fast or slow as you want. You just don't have the right to lie to us like idiots and the problem as you're trying to describe it, does not exist.

Wohooow
JrK
I'm looking forward to everything you have been working on and can't wait to play it thanks for all your hard work bro
Nic
Now that the delay is coming to an end I'm keen to step up a few tiers. Please open that option up. Maybe after E13 goes out?
Florida Man
Awesome! I’m excited and can’t wait for this update!
Nic
Hey BD! Nice to hear from you. Sorry to hear about the troubles. Nevertheless, I'm really looking forward to E13 and E14, but I can wait.
Seb Ball
So for Episode 13 will you be releasing it scene by scene or is that after this chapter
Tyler Clark

morgbabanza

Ashbringer
