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

[Vidal the king of Pervert]

That's not a flaw, it's intended dude. Can't make a decent Kubrick Stare with thin eyebrows. You know what's a Kubrick Stare right ? A shot where the character stares at the audience with a forward tilt. It implies that the character in question is pissed or fucking instable and the person he's looking is really screwed. Massive eyebrows make the stare looks deeper and eviler.

Mila:

she never had money to go to the disco so she picked a wimp music from a soap opera that helped her deal when her father was beating up her mother because her mother used the booze money to buy drugs!

and Nami...

because Nami always as to make it weird and Nami being Nami as no clue what the youngsters enjoy and therefore picks a totally out of tune song! and then she smashes it by getting a bunch of rich kids to sing a song of rebellion!

Remind please. Is this the same game that still has no content?

yes

[Templar Knight]

Remind please. Is this the same game that still has no content?

this is one of the best games here on this site, where each character has a unique personality and the girls are graphically well done, in addition to having a constructive story. If you want a game with a story you've come to the right place, now if you want a soft porn that has a nasty third-rate plot story and jump right into the sex scene, it's come to the wrong place.

tldr:
After 4 full months: ~680 renders and 2 cinematics
Remains: ~1000 renders and ~4 cinematics

Pretty much proof the game won't ever be completed, at the current speed we are lucky to get 1 full chapter a year and there are 26 chapters left to do.

If cinematics are taking the majority of the time then I'd rather Ocean released the chapters without them and add them for the final release if it will speed up the process. We won't be missing much since all the story is told through the renders.

Ya, quite honestly, if he really wants to do cinematics, I'd love to see shorter ones showing two characters having a detailed kiss, or once sex is involved having detailed animations / cinematics to underscore certain romantic positions and feelings of the act etc. versus longer ones with trees, hair blowing, etc. I mean I understand the desire to show longer cinematics for stage-setting and storytelling advantages, don't get me wrong it's all great and he's very good at it, but if those animations cause significant queuing on the rendering rigs (or just in his workflow if they are taking a ton of dev time) that they push releases out weeks or months then, IMO, they are not worth it given the types of timeframes we're looking at...as noted, a ~30 chapter target length and we're getting a half chapter once every 4-6 months or thereabouts...

And this isn't meant to crap on Ocean or anything like that, many of us are on his Patreon because we like his work enough to get our wallets out to support him, but just literally praying at this point for faster release times and I, for one, would be perfectly happy if additional animations were added into the game at a later point when maybe he gets to the Dr Pinkcake milestone of having what is seemingly a dedicated rendering farm with like 8-10 GPUs. Ultimately it's Ocean's call, and I hope he's able to find a way to speed things along.

 

[Freki.g]

Premised, like many, I appreciated this project but I criticize it for the release times.
Regarding the latter point, this dev has two started projects that have been going on for a long (very long) time, in this regard ask yourself a question: why work on two projects if you have difficulty following one ?
I think, everyone will be able to express their good and satisfying answer but, those who like me observe an unjustified slowness of development have little to complain about, they just have to withdraw the support and maybe something will change.

The Dev decided to go this way. If it's good for him or not, he have to find out himself. His other game is another story with the full remake style because he wasn't happy anymore with the old style. Because of the complete Drama with two Games i've decided that i wont take the Risk for Supporting him because of the fear that he'll burnout at some point. Love Summer's Gone, Wiab is .... well, ok. But too much Risk that we will never see an ending.

The mystery around Sasha bugs me and it doesn't help that itll probably take years before we unravel that mystery for obvious reasons but I just wanna know, is she Summer? I mean there's no doubt that she must have some kind of connection to her. But is she Summer?, it would make sense and honestly I hope she does turn out to be Summer because this game already has so many girls I don't even know who all are LIs, some are obvious like Bella, Nami, Mila and Victoria but this game definitely don't need more female characters or LIs and having summer appear later in a game where players have been focusing on the girls that are already in the game is a stupid move cause at that point who gives a fuck about Summer right? , the titled character. So I do hope we get some more Sasha content in the next few updates and she turns out to be Summer, maybe something happend that caused her to lose her memory, got a new identity, she has a battle scar on her face so she must've been through some kind of traumatic event like maybe being abducted or something?.. Fuck I'm just running wild with my own nonsense but I do hope Sasha is Summer.

No, Sasha isn't Summer. It was already said back in the Day. Summer's Gone

But she is a Mysterious Cutie.

It is confirmed that Sasha is not Summer

Dude !...If she was summer MC would recognize her in a heartbeat , like this one...

Also it has been cleared a few times already.

If he ever were to meet Summer again he would jump out of his seat and then pinch his penis....maybe not.

 

[AngelsAfterDark]

Man that's disappointing if you guys are saying it's confirmed that Sasha is not Summer.. Now her mysterious background bugs me even more who the fuck is she? why did MC recognize her for a brief moment when he first saw her, why does she have the other half of Nami's earing and then there's the smiley eraser which im sure Vic got from Sasha. but Now it leaves the question, will Summer ever be in the game I mean she is the titled character so surely she should be.. Or is she just used as a catalyst to drive the narrative and it's more like Chasing Amy(for those who watched the movie)

Wasn't there a topic or theory a while back here about the relation between Sasha and Nami?
More in depth and what i can remember of it was pretty solid. Can't find it again though

I do think Sasha has some issues with the MC but also got inner struggles about it.
For example when you train at the gym she does "save" your fall and hurting herself but for the rest try to keep her distance from you.

 

[Boehser Onkel]

I guess the problem is not so much the hardware, but the large number of details in each chapter. Ocean makes approximately 200 images per month. If desired, one chapter can fit into 800 images. In this case, we will get 3 chapters per year, and with new hardware, maybe even 4. But for this he need to abandon long scenes of basketball matches with 400 images and board games.

who needs that dnd and basketball stuff ?

I haven't been in this forum alot since I played the game a while back so I don't remember that particular discussion but if Sasha and Nami are related(if that is what the theory implied) then that would make her related to MC as well.. But wait is MC and Nami actually related or is that only with the incest patch?

Yeah she avoids MC like hell but I'm sure she was the one who told Robin to go after MC when he freaked out after he saw Vics smiley eraser and as you mentioned she broke MCs fall in the gym hurting herself in the process. she feels like a machine to be honest but surely she must care about MC in some shape or form.
