Other user say last update took 9 months, so which one is correct ?

The "Summertime Saga" tech update went horrible it's a year in the making already, but at least Darkcookie has thrown out a few updates in the meantime for damage reduction the next one will be in february, to play the devil's advocate here for DC he have three children, streams daily, provides a very detailed progress bar and his drawings are top notch plus "STS" have the best animations when it comes to handdrawn h games however DarkCookie is dawdling that's for sure because if you look at the Roxxy update which was released (if i remember correct) 3 years ago, it took him only 2 months but had more content & especially h scenes than any other update since than which get's released every quarter.

There are also positive examples, e.g. JamLiz who releases an update of "SexNote" bi monthly or Eroniverse also needs this period of time for "Confined With Godesses", BreadManGames also delivers "Demon Deals" quickly and that shows where there is a will there is a way.
It might have taken a bit more time then 6 months i dont really pay attention to that since the devs do progress reports, drop teases, etc...

SS tech update its taking too much time because alot of content to be remade is Art wise and DC the only Artist, He has a life outside making the game, but with him we know he actually works daily on the game (there is people like icstor that people thought he was working for months and to know he had been for 4 months without a damn thing for the game and worse taking the money for free) but the good thing he releasing content with little patches so people dont get angry and to avoid hate, but soon it will end the tech patch and we will the content again.

Holy shit bros, we've officially reached 6 months without an update! Your patreon bucks at work!
Do you mean, game release update, or status (AKA text) update?

No irony intended, just curious, would you be okay if the Patreon had status updates explaining what has been finished and what's left to do, or only if you got actual game releases?

If an update for a game is going to take it's time, then it would be nice if the devs could let everyone know the progress they've made so far. The main frustration that I have is that it's been so long and (as far as i've seen) the devs haven't done anything of the sort.

I have a question
Use this code:blacklotus to unlock DX is not for new content is for cheats, and when minigames will appear it will give u the chance to either cheat (u dont play it) or u play the minigame, aswell Dx cheat has couple features when u open menu (inventory) go left and u will see the features of the cheats.


If i remember they made some changes with the game so older save version's wont work, but since u have the cheats now u can pretty much skip the grind and minigames which makes easier to get our progress back.
But I have a question, this cheat, work in the android version? I tried and don't change anything

Hello y'all,

Since we've had so many questions considering the release date and the overall progression of this update, I thought that I'd make a detailed post about it. So here's what's already done:

- Completely updated all avatar sprites for Amy + a lot of new ones
- Added new avatar sprites for Melissa and Sunny + updated a lot of old ones
- Added lots of overworld animations for Amy, Melissa and Sunny
- Added some new avatar sprites for various other characters
- Added some new avatar sprites for various other characters
- 3 old cutscene images updated to new ones
- Gave “suburbs” map a complete overhaul
- Completely updated Monster Castle’s graphics
- Completely updated Monster Castle’s levels
- Added a new map called “garage”
- Updated both of the ''xmas cabin'' maps

Now, I've also re-written and scripted about 40-50% of Amy's and Melissas old content, but it's a pretty hefty job as it requires to write all the code again in a new non-legacy form factor, make sure that everything stays connected and add new options to it (Since Amy and Melissa will be around in all 3 times of day now). I've also already added some new events in between as I want to make the story progressions slower and the erotica more gradual.

I still need to finish all that stuff and add more events as I go. I also want to add some other things that you can do in suburbs. This is very important as it'll bring the game closer to the point that it's going to look like in 1.0.
Brakus is working on a big terrain system overhaul that'll make the game feel more polished once implemented fully.

Also last but not least, we'll make the notorious "easy mode", which is not that difficult but we just need to remember to edit all the events it's going to affect, and hopefully not break anything! (We always do though!)

Also, for weekly news & updates, remember to follow our ! It's our main platform for that stuff.

Thank you!

If I were the dev, after a long time with no published game updates, and having to choose between continuing the Amy & Melissa stories or doing "housekeeping" stuff like fixing sprites, rewriting dialogues etc, I think I'd do the continuing of stories first and leave the housekeeping update as something minor that's released (relatively) shortly after that. "Picking your battles" is what I'm trying to say.

Because what'll happen is that there's been a long time between updates and then this new update will not continue the story, leaving his patrons stuck in the same place story wise.

I'm set then, I got the farm. Thanks exi.

did someone have save file?
and get all scene?
I think the game seriously need a Mega Jump, at least for minigames like capturing the mouses and for getting the key to leave the Dungeon, or just the Cheat that gives you the ability to "quit trying" for the git gudders like me to enjoy the game aswell
