VN Ren'Py Summer's Gone [S1 Steam + DLC] [Oceanlab]

[Mortarion]

Oh, my animations are not clunky- they are butter smooth.

It's more about what is in those animations that challenges me. Pushing Daz to its limit. (And I love a challenge.)

I don't want to produce 30 frame loops and that's why my lewd animations are also like mini-cinematics.
The one in WiAB with Miru is made out of 19 separate animations- that include more advanced thingies like clothes that get stripped off, skin that reacts to touch, and in general a very cinematic ambiance.


The Steam release is planned but the game is not in a proper state to be released there yet. The plan is to release it there with Chapter 4.5.

How will you handle, or better to say bypass the ban of any adult gameson steam in germany? To be honest, the last time i have tried to find some games of this kind on steam was a while ago - but i was not able to even find BaDik on steam cause of this borderline retarded restrictions our goverment has pulled off. Are there any diffrences if you are a dev or a simple consumer that give the possiblity to release the game on steam

story is of importance, and SG is one of my fav early games for sure, yet if the sex scenes arent implemented well (and i dont care personally much about animations), what is the point in calling it adult/porn game at first place?

Sir, Ocean has emphasized that SG is a story-driven VN with adult element, not a quick-to-fap porn game.

Eh, you should probably reread what Ducky said there

That Frohn was pregnant right? I can't remember. I thought it might be Maja and Victoria's parents. They're dead, so this would be before that. Of course, that would place WIAB like 20 years before SG. Which, on the other hand, could explain the theory that Aya(shit... I forgot Bella's bff's name. is it Aya?) is related to Miru. Its been 20 years, people from her clan came over in WIAB and settled down, made an outpost in the US.

Miru and Ayua have the same way of talking. Miru would remark something and put white man at the end of it. Ayua does the same thing with Jeffrey saying fight me black man... It could be nothing but they seem similar in that way so I was thinking they might be related

Actually that wasn't exactly the fault of our retarted government , nor were there any law changes.
Government wanted a better age verification for steam, u know better than the are u over 18 ? ''yes'', cause
protection of minors...Steam/Valves answer was no and geo blocked all adult only games

Currently the case is in the EU-court, millions in fines, probably mass action lawsuit against Valve etc.
Geo-blockling like Steam does is not legal as per EU law, they are not allowed to geo block regional inside the EU economic area...well we will see what comes out of it.

Well there are ways to bypass the geoblocking, but there is/can be a risk that ur account get's dusted.
As a dev it shouldn't be a problem to publish the game, it will simply not be accessible in germany thats all.

that is bullshit! as another EU citizen not in Germany i can clearly state that is not a problem in other countries! neither southern or eastern Europe as problems with porn games!

you are talking like southern Europeans or British blaming the Eu for shit your own government is making/DOES!

Dude what are u talking about ?
I don't blame the EU for anything, if anything i blame Steam, because they don't want to implement a simple age verification system, the lack of that is the problem in germany, not the porn.
As it can easily lead to other games which are 16/18+ rated to fall under the same block.

And the thing is currently at the EU-court, because of geoblocking regional (like only certain countrys) inside the EU isn't allowed, that has nothing to do with games or porn thought, but with laws about trade regulations inside the EU zone.

 

[Gladheim]

Can you please leave the offtopic out of this? the mods are going to come.

 

[LuckyLara]

Oh Gawd no. Two games are the max I will ever do at the same time.

And when WiAB or SG finishes, I will not start the next one until the other one is done.

And with the move to Blender after Season 1, there is a realistic chance of me being able to hire a highly-skilled 3D artist to actually help me with the games.
Provided I can pay him.




Might be just half an update but that Mofo still has almost 1000 still renders + 2-3k animation frames. (And imo an increased quality.)

I probably should have made them even smaller.



WiAB and SG are having a race at the moment.

WiAB takes longer due to the lewd animations and my inexperience with them. (Lots of trial and error because I am pushing my personal limits.)

But whatever game finishes first, gets to be released first. The other game, even if finished, has to wait two weeks so that I have enough time for bug fixing the first one.





And yes, Mister Vakarian.

The last Dev log was the last one before the actual release.

I genuinely LOVE both of your novels, truth be told, SG slightly more then WIAB, but both of them are A+ for me, and i will support you whenever i can, if it gets on Steam.

I didnt quite understand the last quote, does it means the last update is final for SG or?

 

[Gh0st_Harambe]

man we are here for the stories! if the lewd animations are clunky who cares? AL has shitty sex scenes it was still a hit!

As for SG once you finish the 1st 4 chapters launch it on steam! that should net you some proper visibility and some needed resources!

Do as DPC did and reach out to people like MXR plays and others with huge audiences and if just 1% of their audience sees your work that is still 10.000 people paying you 20 bucks on steam(minus the Bethesda cut)!

i have many ideas but i keep it short, hope it helps!

Like the dev of College Kings did also, he released the first act for free in Steam, and that help him to get more support on patreon.

 

[Rumplepuss]

But then so should Sonya.

I say we make them mud-hand-wrestle for it.

I don't think angels approve of violence no matter how much such contests appeal to creatures of clay such as we. Each girl is worthy of coronation and I suggest a bi-seasonal timeshare as per the crown, decided by writing the names of the four seasons on four slips of paper, putting them into a hat, and allowing each lady to draw two slips, randomly, allowing fate to determine during which seasons each may wear the crown and rule unopposed as Queen.

Somebody draw up a treaty directly! No need for physical confrontation, let alone full frontal nudity, as far as the feminine gender goes at this stage of proceedings gentlemen. No need to thank me for the diplomacy, guys, or for saving your eyes from being forced to feast upon naked female perfection better than mortal man deserves. I'm working gratis and there'll be no charge.

You're perfectly welcome!

just stumbled across this game. so short question. it says v3.0 final. is it like "final" final, meaning theres not coming more and the game is complete, or is it v3.0 final, as in there'll be a version 3.1+ eventually?

Final version of Chapter 3, there is plenty more to come.

There was a dev log posted about two week ago:

Oceanlab (the dev) also posts in this thread, so search for his posts for some more insights into development.

I didn't get something. This 3 chapter is the final of the game?

Two posts up...

 

[Mahakmar]

once we get to the point of complete its complete , version 0.1 final/any version means its just that part one , various versions means various bonus scenes, i will at this point try a game then put it into a notepad wait 6+ months before i try, its early acess all over again
