Bella kinda looks like mc's...do you guys also think the same as me?? Can it be something like bella is mc's mother?? And she didn't die when mc born...she left for some reason??
I'll try to make the theory a little shorter and it will surprise you.

Isabella said in EP5 college review that she left friends behind.

It has not been clarified yet how Isabella met Jill. Maybe the picture is the answer. And here it comes!

The girl to Lynette's right is either the Madame or maybe even Sage's mother. I don't really want to commit myself there. She's wearing the same necklace we saw on Isabella. A parting gift? The pattern and color of the dress, has also been the same, as a bedspread of Maya. Isabella looks at Maya very questioningly in EP7 and Sage is right next to her.

I'm going to name Stephen Burke, because of the girl to the left of Lynette. You guys are about to think I'm crazy. That's Jade according to my theory. It gets better. Jade is a Royce and not the mother Tybalt. Now you know how Burke and Tybalt got into the better circles. Jade also mentioned in EP3 if Stephen still loves Isabella. Childhood sweethearts? The connection is made. But I'll go one better. Josy is the daughter of Lana. There is a clue to this. When the MC takes the dildo helmet first at the beginning of Hell Week, some DIK says it looks like a unicorn. Unicorns are rare. Then in EP6, when Josy and Maya are on the phone wishing the MC a happy birthday, Josy is wearing a t-shirt with a unicorn on it. Who is the unicorn now? Maybe it's both of them. It doesn't matter if Lana is alive or not. (by the way, Maya wears a red shirt with a bear on it. It also says that she loves bears. In EP6 the MC said to Tommy that maybe he is a bear too). But why should Jade be a Royce now? Look at the clothes from the link and the screenshot. It is strange that Josy is wearing black and high heeled shoes like Jade on the same day. The size difference between Josy and Sage is almost the same when compared to the Lynette picture. Jill's concert is also in preparation, which she may also give in honor of Lana. So the anniversary of Lana's death is not too far away. Didn't Jill once say that she didn't know the circumstances of Lana's death?

I don't need to write anything about Lynette, do I?

Is there any discussion done on new teacher that will replace cathy? She was teaching two subjects. So 1 or 2 new characters.

I don't think Cathe is going away, or at least not so soon. carrying on the relationship (let's say at least one sexual scene) with her has already cost us Maya and Josy and eventually Bella, 3LIs... it seems to me that an award is deserved

otherwise either a new character (also some recycling from Swyper) or Bella as a substitute teacher

Most likely Bella, the classes being taught are fairly remedial so could be taught by anyone and I feel it would be a mistake for DPC to create a new character at this stage (so far he's only introduced 3 active teachers plus 1 who's retired)

It may also be the case that we never need to have a new teacher since Cathy will presumably work until her replacement is hired and, given the amount of time which has passed in Eps 1 through 7 and that a max of 16-20 Eps are planned, the story may end before that story arc needs to be resolved.

I think Rusty giving her flowers at the end of episodes means we will not see her on campus again.

I hope the green font doesn't hurt your eyes.:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
No worries there, the green was actually much easier to read, thank you. What you actually wrote started to hurt my brain, though. You really need to stop taking all those drugs, man. They're messing you up. ;)

I don't know, man. I think it'd be capital humor if the retired teacher came back to fill in for a few weeks. Imagine the look on poor Derek's face when he sees her again.

I demand the return of Sage's long hair!

I'd very much like the long hair if the render quality were improved. The strings of hair on the top of her head looked awful (like 20 year old graphics awful). I think that was why DPC opted to go with the new style, i.e. more up-to-date gen hair asset. He noticed how poor the quality was and wanted something better for one of his showcase main LI girls. Compare that old style to the vastly improved hair strands on Sage's new hair or how natural Jill's long hair looks (even back in ep. 1) and it's night and day.

Bella easily has the ability, but it doesn't make much sense to me that she would have time, unless someone else takes over at the library.

I agree with you though, I don't see another teacher character coming in, unless it's a male teacher just to take the lessons and not be any part of a future plot.

Bella is a teacher, only there is no course at the moment, so a solution can be found for that.

KRJ!

She needs to start learning sometime, right?

Ive not touched the game in a long time and not played the last couple of updates (waiting till game is complete in all honesty) but was my old prediction regarding affinity correct? As in girls ended up locked to certain routes such as Sage/Quinn exclusive to determined Dik players and Jill/Bella the Chick fanboys (leaving the other two for more neutral players?).

IIRC only Quinn and the Josy+Maya triangle have affinity requirements, the rest you're merely 'locked out' of specific actions, but not relationships.

For the better part of this week, I wrote code and performed quality assurance for the episode by playtesting and polishing art, code, and dialogue.

I have now added music and sound effects for most of the episode, and I still need a few more songs for specific scenes.

I started working on a big coding task that I have hinted about in the past, and today it's a good time to share some details on it.

Because the game is getting pretty big, and Ren'Py is getting pushed to its limits in some areas, I want to make a new binary for Season 3.

What this means is that after you have completed episode 8, and thus Season 2, you will save your game in a menu and continue your game using another .exe/.app file.

Making a new binary has the added benefit that the initial episodes for Season 3 will have a smaller download size, and you shouldn't have to redownload Season 1 and 2 every update.

If you're getting confused by this, think of this as the same game, only sliced into another part.

Season 1 and 2 will be one separate download. And Season 3 and onward will be another download.

From a developer's standpoint, there are some challenges with this task. My goals are to make this system simple to use for all of you, robust in transferring saves, and functional for both Steam and Patreon. While I'm at it, I also want to trim some fat stored in the save files.

I have both the knowledge and strategy to do all of this, but it will take more time to implement and test it thoroughly as the game has thousands of variables that I want to control and double-check. I have already made good progress on this during this week.

Next week I will continue writing the remaining scenes and pose more static renders.

Have a nice weekend

Dr PinkCake
Oh God now he decided to make a save import system a la Mass Effect Trilogy...:oops::oops::oops:

Seems like a unnecessary resource and time consumer to me. Damn DPC seems forever trapped in a big is better cycle with this game. Always adding new minigames or mechanics with every update.

Starting to believe a november release is a possibility...
