All this bullshit just to make the game widescreen. The moment I saw the tech update win in poll I knew it would take wayyy too long
"weeks"......hahahaI wonder how many weeks it took/has to take for them to "rewire" all those incredibly fun minigames DC keeps adding for no reason
It's not just widescreen.All this bullshit just to make the game widescreen. The moment I saw the tech update win in poll I knew it would take wayyy too long
Tens of thousands of backers vs. maybe a few dozen people complaining itt.DC just posted an update on patreon about a creator milestone award they got.
"We're grateful for the amazing community, the love and continuous support from our fans."
Thought it was funny given how divisive this game is on this thread.
I thought it was a pretty funny joke.It's not like it hasn't happened at least twice before (see #15 in my FAQ above). Also, it really isn't unusual in projects for that to happen - even actually having to go back and redo work already marked as complete. Thirdly, as Chaos_Alfa states - progress, in this case, isn't actually going backwards... it just will look like it, based upon the percentage because they are going to try to better define how much each of the remaining tasks contribute to completing the tech update - rather than all tasks having the same percentage, no matter what amount of work is involved. Finally, if you are a subscriber - you can stop at any time, if you haven't already. If you're not, like me, you are scammed out of nothing.
Now to wait and watch the further posts of others who will come in to whine/bitch/moan/complain that they won't be getting their rocks off for free anytime soon. Even though many posts in this thread have repeatedly reasoned they shouldn't expect anything earlier than Spring 2024 - if not much later.
Can you blame them? The actual information is behind a paywall.That is because nobody reads these threads, they go on the Kompas website, look at the progress-bar, see that it has gone backwards since the last time they checked and they come here to release their coomer rage.
I only came here because I happened to catch the status-update as it dropped and I wanted to see coomers be angry and the hamster-wheel of cope spin in the supporters brains.
This Ren'py game has received north of one million dollars since the tech-update was announced 2 years and 7 months ago, either this DarkCookie guy is an incompetent fool incapable of managing a development team, or he is pretending to be one in-order to keep the checks coming in - either way, fuck this game.
I'm guessing the whole giant, multicoloured head thing is supposed to represent the big and colourful imagination of a succesful Patreon creator? I'd like to see what higher earning Creators got. Does it scale with earnings? Like, I'm picturing the no. 1 creator gets a head that's like 10 times the size and fills the entire room.this "award" looks weird af.. I mean, how it's related to patreon or DC himself?
I honestly think it kinda fits with what's Patreon is about. At least it's something very individual/handmade by someone who is partly funded through patreon and not something you'd mix up with any other milestone or "award" out there. While Youtube's play buttons are certainly more practical, this is kinda uniqe.this "award" looks weird af.. I mean, how it's related to patreon or DC himself?
That thing costs maybe around 500-600$ (the fuck I'd pay so much for that) and the package seems very cheap.I'm guessing the whole giant, multicoloured head thing is supposed to represent the big and colourful imagination of a succesful Patreon creator?

Apparently it's in the shape of patreon logo.. so yeah..I honestly think it kinda fits with what's Patreon is about.

Here I'm only doing what was left because one I don't see the point of stuff that's done even after it's split up and rebalanced it's still done. Two that's about another 20 screenshots I'd have to take and I don't feel like doing that.To get on topic. Can anybody share the detailed tracker as it is now/was somewhat recently? I'd be quite interested to compare what's changed afterwards.
Good Lord, how do they still have so much to do? They still have to re-wire:Here I'm only doing what was left because one I don't see the point of stuff that's done even after it's split up and rebalanced it's still done.

Edit: I'll be interested to see what this does to posing, I've been trying to track that based off dev statements as seen here

They are essentially remaking the game so expect 5-6 years of development including 1 to 2 years of milking. 2 years has passed so we have 4 more years to go.Good Lord, how do they still have so much to do? They still have to re-wire:
- Every teacher other than Bissette
- Everyone in Eve's story
- Everyone in the main story
- Everyone in Mia's story
- Everyone in Erik's story
- Roxxy
- Diane
That's like 80% of the game's storylines. Have they really spent the entirety of the last year just to get Debbie and Jenny done? And they haven't even finished posing Debbie or Jenny! What was the "easy material" that they knocked out at the beginning? The interface? It's a fucking Ren'Py game!
I'm really hoping that I've read things wrong and things will be re-organized to show that something is at least done on those tasks, otherwise this game has easily another year in the oven.
At this point it really does seem like DC should actually give some kind of estimate of how much time it's gonna take, or at least a ball park. If all of those routes move at approximately the same speed as Jenny and Debbie's routes, we're looking at literally several years from now before this tech update is done.Good Lord, how do they still have so much to do?
