Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.4468] [Kompas Productions]

[Tenmocho]

This game needs to speed up some how this dev has made the most cash from his game then any other dev i seen on this site

lets see if i can break this down to as simple as i can. All of that money isnt his because he has hired workers. See it takes time to get the coding done(even more so than other games because of bad coding by someone previously working on the game so basically double the work adding new content and fixing old ones) , to get the animation done, to get the posing and art done, to test the game, find bugs, go back and then fix those bugs, not to mention potential delays because of the state the world is in, not to mention he has a new born child to tend to. Its not as simple to just literally "speed up some how". Quality takes time. If you prefer quantity with overused assets from Daz3D and the same 5 reskinned animations over and over again be my guest. But this guy has to build everything from the ground up

Well it has been almost 2 months since the last update so I guess it's time to start the complaining about the development speed.

its about that time lol

 

[ayreon]

I loved this game, excellent, congratulations to the developers.

I have have heard that the acual reason this goes so slow and he spends 4 months on a update is bec he draws evrything himself he gets 50 k plus a month and 200 k plus for four months of work for that amount of cash you should be able to hire people and go faster but ofcourse if you decide to still do allot of stuff yourself then at that pase my grandkids might be able to play the finished game and i dont hate the dev or the game but its been some years i like to see this dev make other games some day

People have been whining on that same thing for the last ~3 years. Guess what : he keeps gaining Patrons and his $/month never went down for those 3 years. Either people are beyond dumb and really need to be stripped of any $-throwing ability online OR they need to stop trying to change how DC works and just wait for the game. Whether you pay or not won't change anything : game will still take 2-3+ months and your pledge won't make it faster, nor will it incite him to hire 489256706895 more dudes to speed things up. Whine Patreon is a flawed scamlord magnet instead, it would be a better use of your time

The thing is, his patrons (you know the people who actually pay for the game) voted for this. He made a poll asking if people wanted smaller and more frequent updates, or bigger updates, and people voted for the bigger updates knowing they would take more time.

They also voted against widescreen support

 

[Badjourasmix]

Yeah but DC is working on it anyway, it's just not gonna be implemented now. My point is the ones complaining are almost always non patrons the people that pay for the game know what he is doing and are ok with it.

^ All girls will get preg someday. He needs to redo most of the game anyway, adding preg sex while remaking them won't be too much hassle

After being on a Discord mod team for a Patreon game almost 3 years, we came to the conclusion that : "the less you pay, the more you whine". Applies to every Patreon game so far

 

[Badjourasmix]

I mean if you only count sex scenes I guess you could call them small. But I think most people haven't realized yet, that it's only a four man team working on the game and unlike most games on this forum, he isn't using assets from other games. All you see on the screen when you play it, is created by them. Every item, background, sex scene and minigame is handdrawn. All of that takes a lot of time.

I'm just playin this for the first time now and Iv'e finished with Eve and her sister already.... I dont want to read into this to spoil the rest for me but can someone tell me there's more with them 3?

Remember, there can't be incest in the game, so if they are sisters there can't be a sex scene with the two of them at the same time.

why would he speed up and finish the game when he recieves money for being slow? people keep donating to devs who are slow on purpose, if he finished the game tomorrow nobody would be donating him anymore

Check the cookie jar if you missed anything, if it's not in there, it's not in the game

Fascinating

 

[Irrelevantoldguy]

mom pregnancy still waiting on that....

FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING HOLY!!! Please allow Debbie to get pregnant!

 

[Omnikuken]

^ She will, when people vote for her update/remake. Like every girl ever in the game

 

[Ranma]

Momma gotta have her babies!

They also voted against widescreen support

They voted against it because it would have delayed new content. How whiny would people around here be if they only got one update over the course of a year because of the HD update?

 

[Omnikuken]

^ They'd whine the same. We'd just have to cringe through for longer

^ They'd whine the same. We'd just have to cringe through for longer

We're on the internet, people always find reasons to whine.

If DarkCookie released bi-weekly updates containing 20 new scenes each you'd still get people crying about stuff like:
"how come my favourite character only got 5 new scenes and a character I don't care about got 6? with the amount of money he makes he should be able to make 10 new scenes for every character!!111"

I would expect way louder and more petulant whining with only one update worth of content in a calendar year.
