You do know the "A" stands for "Adult" right? I mean I know there's that manga bullshit that is for violence, but meh to that. People come here for the ones with sex scenes. Manga and such can go on like Imatotaldork.com or whatever.
If we can meh whatever displeases us, it's going to be easy.
Meh to whatever you think, dude.

Cartoons are for children. An ending without sex, unless a "you lose" ending is a 1 star, only because 0 or -999999999999999999 stars isn't possible. If it's like that the "no sexual content" tag would be appropriate so people know to avoid like the plague (though maybe that expression should be dropped given what we saw from the public 3-4 years ago...)

Ok, Now I know you are trolling. No one can score that low on the Wechsler scale.

Really, 140s is low? By what measure? I just don't like things that are boring, and that stuff is BORING.
Well, I am sorry if my game isn't up to your standard but I don't intend to change anything to fit your tastes. If you find it that boring, I trust you not to waste your time playing it. I do believe that there is a place for a story. If you simply want a good fap, Summer Scent really isn't for you. Please, don't torture yourself with it anymore.

Question - I played yesterday (started) - today game won't start?
Even after the classic PC reboot and not opening any other program.
Any suggestions?

(other Renpy games work and everything else on the PC is working too)

Dev Update #246


7d3de10b-d3c2-4ddc-8e5e-50c45718038e-740x0.jpg




Some good. Some bad.

The week has been pretty slow. There has been progress on one side and kind of a setback on another side. Let's start with the good.



Steam!

I finally validated the tax and KYC process and I am now a Steamwork partner. That was a stressful adventure. As I live in a quite rural area, my address doesn't even show on Google Maps and I always have issues when filling up that w-8ben form. This time was no different. The KYC thing was another kind of problem. My ID has apparently expired and my driver's license is 28 years old. But it has been sorted out and I'm now ready for the next step. I'll start working on the app itself next week.



Day 6 Scene 28

It's written and cut, ready to be posed. It's 5378 words long and I planned 179 shots to go with it. I hoped to start posing it before the end of this week but I was delayed.



Daz 4.22

I updated my software. And this is where we talk about the bad stuff.

Daz 4.22 comes with a lot of great stuff, like volumetric shaders and improved loading times. However, it also comes with a huge caveat: ghost lights do not behave like they used to in the previous versions. And that's a huge issue for me as 90 % of my lighting comes from ghost lights. I knew I would have to rework the light in all my sets but I had reasonable hopes that it would work. So I spent about two days trying to adapt my usual setup for 4.22 and I got some decent results but with some significant differences. And these differences are very visible, especially in the day scenes. This is a huge issue as I don't plan to reshoot the rework or Day 6. So I'm not sure what to do. For the coming update, I will continue working with Daz 4.16. But not upgrading to a newer version of Daz isn't viable in the long term. I will most likely try to upgrade my hardware next year, and Daz 4.16 will probably be unable to render on an RTX 5090. I won't have a choice then. I will be forced to make the jump. And I don't like that idea.



The quick sum up :

  • Day 6 Part 5 will contain 2 new scenes: scenes 28 and 29.
  • Day 6 Part 5 will contain 1 reworked scene: Day 2, scene 2.
  • 5378 words of new content so far.
  • 179 shots are planned.
  • I'm currently writing scene 28.

All these paths just ruin this game for me. So much missed content requiring far to many playthroughs and far to easy to miss things without a guide.
Yeah, games with content is the worst. I don't get either why the devs didn't realize we all just want dia shows so we can skip everything and just watch the lewd stuff. It's like the devs thinks we could just watch some porn on one of the trillions of free porn sites. But noooo.... they just have to torture us with something like a choice based story. They even put effort in making a game which gives us countless different content. One could believe they want us players to have something like a long time motivation to have fun more than one time. Pahaha... rookies...

I know. Because of too much idiots I have to use a disclaimer: this was sarcasm.

:p I understand having a lot of content is generally a good thing. I have a hard time with things like replaying games or re-watching movies. I get bored going over the same things again even if there is new stuff in it.

That is true - even when there actually is sex content - going through all the paths to see a little different with the vast majority the same over and over is a bit much. I can't imagine a dev being able to make paths that are completely different. Plus going through all the early boring parts (the early part is boring in just about every adult game) again.

Bravo for the developer, he's one of my top five.eventually a little guide to find your way in all these paths!!? and the top for me a French translation file to better grasp some finesses of the game (traduction .deepl.com) ;)

Dev Update #247


7dd5bfb9-1748-4dd1-a799-8e5652eabaf7-740x0.jpg




The week was pretty poor productively speaking.



Day 6 Scene 28.

I started posing the scene but as you can see on the Trello board, I didn't progress much. As always, the first shot of a sequence takes quite some time to pose. It's about initializing the starting conditions of a whole series of images. You have to place and fully pose every character, set up the props, check the lights... These are the foundations upon which the entire set rests. Given the extensive loading times I have to deal with, I really don't want to make a mistake there.

You can also note that I spent some time on "additional material". Scene 28 starts with the team watching TV and I needed something to display on the screen. I had to decide on a very simple story fitting my needs, create a couple of characters and environments, and pose a handful of shots. It took quite some time for just 4 shots but I don't really have a choice. I don't want to use "external material" anymore and I need the screen to tell a precise story as it will play a role in the discussion.

I now have all the material I need for the next 80 shots or so. I should be able to progress faster.



Steam.

I really underestimated the work required to properly set up a store page on Steam. There are many images and text to produce. I thought about producing some new and specific artwork for what Steam names "capsules" (Basically: the banners and the buttons.) but I will finally use the title screen I use at the moment. It works most of the time. It's a bit more complicated with vertical capsules but I think it works.

The real problem is in the text. At that point, I feel like I'm kind of decent when it's about writing fiction but I'm dogshit weak when it comes to promotional stuff and marketing language. There is a ton of text required and everything I wrote so far smells like complete and utter crap. And I'm supposed to seduce the eventual Steam player with that text. I'm doomed.

I hope to be done with both the store page and the initial build of the game and set everything for validation before the end of this month.

I have to confess that I am kind of terrified to make a mistake that would ruin everything. If Summer Scent isn't successful on Steam, things are going to get difficult for me very quickly.



The quick sum up :

  • Day 6 Part 5 will contain 2 new scenes: scenes 28 and 29.
  • Day 6 Part 5 will contain 1 reworked scene: Day 2, scene 2.
  • 5378 words of new content so far.
  • 180 shots are planned, 7 are posed.
  • I'm currently writing scene 28.
