People complaing about Summertime Saga is very strange i mean he release's all his game builds completly free soon as right? certainly it has been an very long time since last release, an very long time but he is one of the best Developers i've seem out there.
This is the result of two things: Frustration and Blue Balled Syndrome.
The frustration comes from this update that was big being sidelined by the Patreon thing. Not only that, they went YOLO on doing 4 teachers at once (as patrons requested) and fulfilling that while also redoing the story for Patreon. Not only that, you have a story redux among a lot of other things.
Blue balls comes from the fact that saves don't carry over, so this is the closest to a fresh restart in 4 months.
In that 4 month period, with nothing to do, people start focusing on the means of production which goes back to the Patreon stuff, which goes into the new coders, which goes into everything else besides the game because there's no new story or anything else.
Now, right at the time of release, DC is stopping this right at the edge of climax. Every person is basically feeling BBS until 15 comes out to give them something new to talk about.
You have no idea how much the same stuff circled around in the main thread...
