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

[Olsens.M]

The game will probably be reworked the entire while it's being developed, as Summer's hardware ceiling and drawing ability increases and the game continues to rise in terms of graphics quality. Personally I wouldn't mind a bit of consistency myself, but I'm not about to say no to quality renders.

oceanlab's priorities are messed up. As much as i like WIAB and SG i dont understand the need to whatever he does regarding "new cgs new animatics new storyline" i prefer rather the og. He should focus onl on the story developement . he is confused himsef. by the time WIAB and SG will be done my grandkids will be playing the full version. Oceanlab stop screwing around and focus on the main story.

will they be playing the full version? are you sure? I am a lil disappointed and I agree when you say he is lost. If he is trying to find perfection he will never find it and he won't move from his standing point. I was ok with WIAB even with those old ugly renders, then he stopped. Started remaking both, and is now remaking again and he already decided to change the only character I loved in this game.

It is hard to support some VN's devs sometimes, feels like wasting money.

I think he could keep going and finish it. Later on, he could do a remake if he wanted to. I started playing the other game Wiab. then he suddenly stopped. to remake it. From what I have seen, I will never see the end of that game. SO that is a lot disappointing. If he is looking for perfection he will never move from his standing point.

I supported him in the early days, then I came to the conclusion that he would never have finished, the only time he posted on Patreon was to say he needed new hardware, I think the last I checked he had a couple of 3090s and an A6000, I bet he's still on the begging wagon, saying he needs another upgrade of some sort.

this has always been the problems with games ... reworks ... or so called remakes .. of different chapters or versions of a game ... people get used to things being a certain way ... females for example .. we get used to the way they look ... act ... etc ..... then ... for some odd reason the dev(s) always want to do reworks to renders or conversations .... which makes us as players scratch our heads in confusion as to why they did that .... when the game was perfectly fine as it was ..... but as said a million times ... thats dev(s) for ya ..... well enough said by me ... i'm planning on waiting awhile for maybe versions 6 or 7 .... by then the game might not be about summer at all .... as to guess about her and what happened to her .... who the fuck knows at this point i don't think the dev(s) know either ... laters people ....

you might be on to something lol
i dont think the dev has this story figured out, probably the reason updates take so long

 

[gene/eous/lyneous]

hahaha that basketball shot scene cracked me up (mc throws a backwards overhead hoop shot only for it to rebound) especially given the motivational build up leading to it lol

Damn, then I'm the easiest of the whole bunch. With zero monetary sites under this pseudonym the only hardware upgrades I require is a new handle of Crown every couple of weeks. Where the hell did I go wrong?

It does and it just changes the way you adress Nami/Nojiko or the way Maja and Victoria refer to each other.

That is incorrect. The story isn't a problem at all. AFAIK it's written up to some point of Season 2 I think.
The final version took so long because of the rework of the remaining part of Chapter 1 and its highly performance-demanding renders in the college. Plenty of people in one place, the background, etc. DAZ is not made for scenes like this and Ocean's two GPUs - while very powerful - just couldn't catch up.
The beta version took so long mainly due to the cinematics in Ch 4 and the tabletop session - similar circumstances. That's about it. Overwhelming visual quality and the passion given into this project is taking its toll.
Allegedly next update shouldn't take that long, Ocean is aiming for one more release this year.

It doesn't hurt to check the dev's development logs which are regularly posted here for us to read, you know? He also explains there why the rework was necessary.

Same exact progression here. Now I'm watching for some sign that he gets his poop in a group and I'll think about downloading an update and rejoining. Frustrating because that original first chapter was pretty awesome.

That's because it's being overhauled and sanitized for Steam, a.k.a. the next money grab. I know this for fact since I was the one who combed through over a thousand diffs that were mostly taking out a single period "." or changing thing's like "gook" to "Japanese", etc. It all combines to make a more "Snowflake" chapter version than the raw feeling of the original (imo of course). All references to ethnic and homosexuality (spewed by Coach Stahl for example) were all run through a sanitation process to (I guess) insure no one's "feelings" would get hurt. It certainly lessens the impact of raw emotion (debatable, I get it).

I'm not trying to ruffle anyone's feathers by this... but that's the real world that many refuse to see due to their heads being either stuck in the ground like an ostrich or up their asses so far they'll never see daylight.... again imho.

So the world's slowest sellout is on? Why are half the people in the thread sniffing corks? Connoisseurs of unfappable woke drama? Couldn't they just watch prime time on a major network? Much better framerate.

Atleast the protagonist is good looking for once - personal opinion.

yeah no shit cause the dev for some reason made him look like an actor on the CW channel, it's so bad.

I'll be perfectly honest regarding my opinion and share it. I'm not calling anyone a sellout but I do know that these "remakes" are not entire due to expansion of artistic vision and the search for "perfection". There's only one true reason to sanitize a body of work merely to suit a particular distribution platform... and it's not for product exposure. It's for profit.

That's not me saying it's right or wrong, but that is the reality nonetheless. It's very hard for me to not view these types of "decisions" as merely the whoring off of one's original intent of independent freedom of expression only to be routed squarely back to conformance and compliance.

That's my personal take for whatever it's worth. Likely not much to many but so be it. I didn't get to retire in my early 40's due to being naive, that's for fucking certain.

 

[Sancho1969]

Meh, I reckon due to the buildup so far that the introduction to actual lewds are going to be produced imminently. There's just no way around it as one can only remake/refabricate a few intro chapters for so long before monetary contributors start to bail in volume. I haven't raised the white flag yet by any stretch (obviously, I spend a ton of personal time producing modded content code for it). I am disappointed by the literary sanitation though. I really didn't see it coming to the extreme it was taken. But that's just me.

 

[Trojaner]

Why people are crying now bout "Writing" ... I mean everyone knows that 99% of the Peops can't read anyway, so why give a fuck bout it. And the writing is not as bad as 99% other titles ya find here, still one of the best here. Not just a: "Hi, Let's Fuck until we are complete Braindead."

Not to forget: Who gives a Fuck bout Sex, except the Skip-Text-Wanking Babys here.
