The release dates for Episode 7 - True Colors are as follows:

+$25 tiers: Friday, April 23

+$10 tiers: Monday, April 26

$5 tier: Friday, May 7 (Patch only. Requires v0.6.0 or v0.6.1.)

DIKs! The wait is almost over!

Beta testing has yielded great results and helped the episode get more polished than it was.

There are still some kinks to work out, and after that, there's the general preparation for release left on my end; but today, I'm feeling confident that I can deliver on this release date.

If you plan to play the game on the release day, I advise you to download the full game before release and then download the smaller patch during release day.

This will get you playing the game faster as servers will be stressed during this time.

The estimated download size for v0.7.0 is 14.5 GB for the full game and 4.1 GB for the patch.

I've tried my best only to include what's necessary for the patch, and, as always, my content is compressed and lossless.

You can only patch versions v0.6.0 and v0.6.1 from my Patreon page. As always, the Patreon version isn't compatible with Steam.

If you're unsure about how to patch the game, you can save yourself the headache and download the full game at release.

I hope you will enjoy this release, and a thank you to all for sticking with me through the development.

Your patience and the trust you put in me make me stay focused and healthy.

This project is only possible because of your support.

Let the countdown begin!

Love

Dr PinkCake

You are the best DPC! Can't wait to play episode 7 and everything else in the future🔥 Much love and keep up the good work❤️

Fareed

You're the best!

Xan

YES

SB Rogue

4.1GB just for the patch! Oh My Lanta. This is going to be fucking awesome.

Nighteyes

*canceling weekend plans for next week* Legit question, is there an expected time for the release? (preferably with timezone so us Europeans can figure out when it is :) )

Andres Reyes

Looks like time to take a couple of days off work next week. Woooo!!!

Drousin

I was literally just thinking about when you announce this, I’m so hyped congrats bro

Echo CT-1409

Every main girl but Maya in the picture, she was also absent in the previews too...

Qayen

I really don't get why so many in the community dislike her lol, she's my fav main girl alongside Sage, they're both tied behind Quinn for my overall fav xD

Qayen

whoa 4.1 GB for a single patch? Damn, can't wait! Thanks for all your hard work again DPC!

Echo CT-1409

She's not my favourite but I don't hate her.

Gray

lets hope I can patch the game im always terrible at these things. If not I don't mind downloading the full game and playing from the beginning. Thanks for the amazing news.

hisstoryman

I know there is light at the end of the tunnel, for my MC it's probably a diesel engine.

Jayden

Like this if your jizz is ready for the following Friday

John Lyon

For me it's her resting bitch face that puts me off, don't hate her but not interested either.

Jamison

So I guess the whole Maya father thing is a massive thing, since Maya isn't even in the banner.

Fyrtue

He's doing the steam releases in season blocks. Season 1 was chapters 1-4 so the next steam release won't be until after chapter 8 at the earliest I believe.

Hamish

Cant wait to start another playthrough and see the new stuff!

Ivan

Oh my god, i wait such a long time

captain_click_track

It’s the final countdown!!!! BA DA DO DO! BA DA DO DO DO! BA DA- crap. Gotta pay royalties now. 😖

ChickenPham

Can't wait, its my early day at work to so I'm so happy 👏

Grim Reaper

FINALLY!!!!! THE BEST DOCTOR EVER IN THE WORLD....

DrPinkCake

You don't have to worry about losing any saves whether you choose to patch or download the full game. Patching just makes the download size smaller but you will end up with the same files after you copy-paste the patch content into v0.6.0 or v0.6.1. If you want patch instructions, check the current release thread for information on it.

T'Gran

You're doing the Lord's work, Doc!

Rebelyon

Praise the Pink!

AngelousDraven

looking forward to playing it just finished Episode 6 keep up all the great work.

Ryo

DR.PINK!!! Thank you! EDIT : Sry I meant DR. Forgive me!

Pete Miller

He didn't go to porn game medical school to just be called "Mr.". XD

Ryo

LOL woops I meant Dr!!! XD

Mellee

keep it up doccccccccccccccccccc and yo that bella picture makes me wonder hahahahahahah

Fonzy

Excited to play it :) looking forward to it :) Keep up the good work.

The Exception

Probably, because this is way better than "Cyberpunk 2077" if you ask me.

Gn753

Yes! YES!!

Phillip

Excellent news, so I’m guessing by the timeline for this release we won’t be seeing the walkthrough for episode 7 until June at the earliest?

Brian West

Bella’s looking awfully sus here...

Ardor

Awesome! It's finally the weekend and now I have something to look forward to for next weekend. So stoked about this update and ready to jump back into it.

Furrow

Should be a good timeline anyway - Gives time to run through all the various playthroughs/save games and try to find things on your own - normally just need the walkthrough to catch the couple things I somehow miss.

Pyrforos

Well i got 4 saves all ready and waiting. Great story and artwork mate, came for the tits, stayed for the story..... and Isabella's ass.

Michael Newton

I have the Steam version. How long after a Patreon release do we Steamheads get it? Thanks..

Bobscratch

And I can almost guarantee it will be less buggy.

Alpha Protagonist

Well i turn 39 on that day so increasing my pledge to 25$. Thanks for the great story Dr PinkCake. Also will be hungover the next morning.

The Exception

Well, it's gonna take a while. It's not like it happens before ep. 8, wich is about 4 months from now, so... Try to stay patient, I guess..? Or you can become a patron, cause it's cool and helpful for DrPInkCake, wich is cool and helpful for everyone here in return of course)

Mitsuru

Sorry to say, but for adult VN, patreon or subscribestar are really the best options. Unless you fancy japanese anime girls.

Michael Newton

I am a Patron but got on board only after finding DIK and downloading from Steam..

Mitsuru

Well if you are subscriber , i suggest that you download the game again( from patreon) .But, you probably gonna have to start from scratch, because i don't think your steam saves are compatible with the patreon version.

Dave Davidson

@michael Newton same here, I bought it on Steam, then became a Patreon after finding the Steam version was only up to episode 4 while the one here was up to 6. I'd rather support the dev directly anyway, and there are extras here like the renders and walkthroughs.

Michael Newton

I am the king of new games. Up to 300 with FO4. So I could just download DIK from here and delete my file in Steam without conflict?

Thor von Fiddle

I think you may be reading too much into this. If DPC compiled a promo banner with Tybalt, Rusty, Chad, and Magnar instead of the girls what would that imply?

Jamison

it's a copy & paste operation in the /game directory. Overwrite all.

The Exception

You don't even need to delete anything. I have both, it's fine.

Jamison

Just thinking outload. I try to find patterns in occurrences, and develop assumptions (and see how those assumptions play out in time) with stories I get interested in. You would have to admit that seeing Josy living in the HOT house now, Maya (probably) still in her dorm might cause some tension, thusly create a small schism, which could develop into a larger one throughout the course of the game. I'll be curious how the story unfolds in time.

DrPinkCake

There's no ETA for a Steam release. You can't patch the Steam version and the saves are treated as two different games. You don't have to worry about keeping both versions as long as you don't actively try to modify the games with code and/or saves.

Jamison

usually it's a couple weeks after the last tier gets the patch, so 3rd or last week of May...probably

Bunduru

OMG YES!!!!

Giedrius

Finally, we can get beck to our second life's. :D and don't worry DOC it's worth waiting you give us awesome experience. :)

GH0STD3LTA

I love the excitement from this community, I’m hyped af!!

GolamZ

Salute!

Waiter

Just upgraded my membership because I can't wait extra 3 days XD

Lau Kong Chee

Great work, I really enjoy your game. Each character had a good depth and background. Game play are fun and story are kept interesting throughout all the season. Most games I'd probably played once and not bother finding out other paths I missed but definitely will try to unlock all the scenes and story.

Oleg Daev

I'm excited really, but I'm waiting for the Steam full release 😄

BananaMan

Then you're going to have to wait until a while after Episode 8 is out

anthony curtis

Weirdly I am more excited for this episode than I am for RE8 and ME trilogy. I cannot wait to play it :D

AfterLife

The first, longest week of this year. Second one going to be the week before EP8 release. Have a long rest on the next weekend Doc!

Alexandre Desrochers

Noob question, but where do you put the patch to add it to the game? :) im new here, btw it is one of my favorite game 👌👌 thx drpink for everything you've done for us 😁

DrPinkCake

You can check the current release for v0.6.1 for patch information. It's the same but with a different patch.

DrPinkCake

Yeah, I bet, but for me, the week will fly as I work with the preparations and all. And when release comes, it's the busiest time for me with helping players with any issues and whatnot. I'll squeeze in a rest sometime after that. :)

Jason Fuesting

So... long post, tangentially related to the game... and that tangent starts with me sitting here on the music menu, listening to a handful of specific tracks because, oddly enough, they merge well when I'm in a thinking mood. Odd, really, listening to the soundtrack of a pr0n game, for the sake of thinking about things that aren't pr0n related. Still, point being, my father has spent all but three days of the last three weeks in the hospital with what they're calling cluster migraines (not cluster headaches), and wild swings in blood pressure that has caused multiple strokes. He was released last week but ended up going right back a few hours later thanks to me catching that his BP had spiked. He could've died, probably would've died if I hadn't been there. My mom figured it was aftermath from the hospital stuff, not its return. And so... I've become really contemplative the last few days. We're not out of the woods yet, after all, even if things have been better. There are a lot of things you think you know, or you'd think you'd seen enough to get it at a gut-level. Things like the ephemeral nature of life, how nothing is permanent. Dr. PinkCake has a few tracks on here that really seem to reinforce thinking about that shit for me. There are huge number of things spinning around in my head right now, not all of them healthy, none of them fun, and I haven't been able to disentangle any of them to deal with them at all. I guess there's a few things I can say though. Tell your loved ones you love them. You never know when your last opportunity to speak to a person will be and you'll spend the rest of your life regretting the words you should've said but didn't. And... I know, since we're all here because we shared only a single point, a desire to see an adult game that didn't suck get made, then there's a *WIDE* variety of opinions and beliefs represented here. I can't help but be happy that people have been respectful, or at the very least I've missed those moments when people haven't been. This place is like a minuscule island of sanity for me sometimes, given how utterly crazy everyone on every side seems to have become lately, which is, itself, kinda crazy when you think about it. Anyway, I don't care how much we might disagree if we met in real life, I hope folks here stay safe and can find a place where they can be happy... and I hope we can find a way to stop being assholes to each other in the bigger world we're all averting our eyes from when we're playing this game... because if we can't... well... tell your loved ones you love them while you can.

OriginalKJak

So glad to see this today! Thanks so much for all your hard work, Doc. I cannot wait to see what you've done in Episode 7!

fwy1991

I cannot wait to see Episode 7!

Eren

I can't wait to see episode 7

gk22

hope there will be a lewd scene with Lily. My fav girl.

Jonez Lee

I'm hoping we get something with h Heather, y'all

Phillip

OMG that would be so awesome, she really does need a dick slap!!!

Xan

Man oh man

Alexander Pires

Just a quick question DPC, Im guessing the Walk through will be coming within the next couple of weeks? Anyways, thanks for all the amazing work I cant wait to play on the 23rd Have great one!

Ruthless

it might there is no date on it im thinking it might take longer this time around. I think there are more paths in this episode than others kinda like ep4

IamaStone

Agreed been wanting that

DrPinkCake

I haven't started working on the walkthrough, and there's no date or ETA for it. Managing the release and any bugs take priority for me.

Pablo Prieto Rodriguez

So, I can only afford to pay 1$ per month, will I have access to the patch? Thanks anyway, the game is really nice.

Lectiuss

Minimum tier for the download of the patch is 5$ and you need to already have patreon version of the game in order to patch it, steam version is separate version and CANNOT be patched Edit: with tier 10$ you can download the patreon version of BaDIK so that you can keep it on the drive to apply the patch when new episode releases

rogghuggcogg

hey quick question what files to i need too replace too install the newest patch?

Lectiuss

you'll have precise instructions together with all the needed files in a winrar/7zip patch archive. If I remember correctly (it's been a while..) you just copy the files from the patch archive to BaDIK game folder and overwrite everything. It's very easy to do. (correct me if I misremember..)

Reboot

I didn't think I'd find a post this touching on this forum, to be honest. I feel for you and have been through things like that too so I can relate. I hope everything turns out to be ok. Take care of yourself, too. You said your thoughts are not healthy, and that's understandable. I just hope they do get better, though, and you don't let yourself drown in those thoughts. I have hope, since the rest of your message shows positivity towards this community and the world. I wish everybody thought like that, and that those who do, like myself, would talk about it more. Let's be nice to each other, even if we don't always agree or understand each other. I hope you have time to play this game this week-end, or do anything else you like to distract you a little. I sincerely hope you and your family get better. Take care.

Waiter

Quick question: What is the standard time of the release date? Is it the pacific time zone?

DrPinkCake

No release time specified. It will drop when I'm ready to post it.

Merky

I'm wondering if it will release once midnight hits anyone knows??

Waiter

Unlikely. DPC didn't specifically choose the time, but he plans to release it on the mentioned date.

Jamison

ep 5 released about 6am CST (U.S.), and ep 6 released about 7am CST. If those two eps can be any indication.

Robert Wolfe

Ok am I the only one that can’t find the suit in episode 6???

xGamblex

I love this game so much, for the story and for the adult content, it actually feels like you are inside the game, you are drawn into it. HAVING SAID THAT, I would love a longer and more passionate scene with Isabelle, the teasing is just not enough. Love the game.

jakethesnake3333

Well that's just sort of the dynamic there with her so yeah. Without saying much more, it's by design (I'm assuming.) I'm betting though in EP 7, we're getting more xD.

The Exception

Um... yeah? :D Dude, check the wardrobe in the room with some moon globe)

xGamblex

Yes indeed, without giving away spoilers, I think its about time, their dynamic went further

xGamblex

Yes, b ut have you seen her husband? *no spoilers* but, hey, she wants it the same way he does, so well see.

gk22

well said

Xan

Yes

2026-09-05 14:00 How long is this Episode going to be I wonder I hope long.
2021-04-22 23:44

Xan

Biggest update yet, so I’d say longer than any other previous one

Jayden

how big

RedZer

its says 4.1 GB in the post so prob take 1-2 hours with all routes

Jamison

@Xan You also have to take into account the multiple paths for the main girls. DPC has to create scenes for Sage, Josy/Maya, Jill and Bella. Granted there will most likely be a lot of scenes that overlap, but as the game progresses, so do the paths as well as the ep size.

Robert Wolfe

I'm just waiting to see that patch link now!!!

Jamison

you'll be waiting for sometime

Christian

so uh.. change of topic but anyone else waiting for the new episode of FATWS also while we wait for ep.7 ? lmao

Con Pantazidis

In all seriousness, I cant wait to see more of what Tremolo and Derek get up to

RealDAP

Don

Shoutout to all my Oceania bros, almost the 24th.

Gause

Rodriguez

it hasnt come out yet and all of us have been awake all night waiting in suspense. dear god help me im so tired.

Lectiuss

You dont have to worry about the saves, those are stored in different location than the game itself

AfterLife

He gonna add a guide as usual how to install the new patch.

Dr.Evil666

Starting another pot of coffee. Come on patch.

Jayden

WhiteWolf619

Give the poor guy a chance he probably just got up and he has to upload it that can take a bit of time lol.

Geralt of Ashkelon

This reminds me of when I waited until 3 AM for Cyberpunk to be available.

Chris Cat

He usually posts about 3 hours earlier than this is all...

And

Is it out?

Shane

Anybody know why my folder extraction is sometimes insanely, excruciatingly slow and other times fast as hell? I'm confused.

Jayden

So you Sadie you left Van Der Linde gang to play BAD nicee! ;)

Ivan

Kristof_E

The updated graphics looks amazing. Thanks for a well made episode. So begins the wait for the next one.

gk22

DPC, what time can we expect the 10 $ tier release tomorrow?

hisstoryman

Love the new banner pic. Great renders and love the lighting.

Mahnkopf

Hey I'm in Australia and was wondering what time this will be releasing for us? Thanks.

Jet_Pilot

i think its about 4am our time, oh im an aussie too

Drab Drab

We need to wait , its only the 10 $ plus

DrPinkCake

It's live now for the $10 tier! Enjoy!

DrPinkCake

It's live now for the $10 tier! Enjoy!

JasonG

I think in future updates there should be a "Doctor's Choice" where DPC picks a girl for a small special render set in additional to the polled ones. This would help balance out the numbers a bit and might lead to great renders of girls who never/ would never get picked in the polls.

AfterLife

A few of them definitely needs some attention. +1

Luksa

Does anyone has problem with upgrading to 15$ tear, using credit card. Never had issue, but today for past 10 hours, I'm getting payment declined. :(

Andy Lockhart

Excellent as always! Can't wait for the next Episode.
