Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5258] [Kompas Productions]

[Nullx54]

He's not doing it himself. He has a coder hired. He also has art posers, writer and a few other staff. His coding back in the beginning of development and hiring various people with various ways of coding over the years is the reason why the code is FUBAR now and needed fixed.

Either they are useless or they are deliberately slowing down work until the DC and co. need more subs. I've had enough experience with coding to know that coders and programmers do overplay the complexity of coding at times to milk people. So far as I can tell, DC has been consistent with his steams on Picarto, meaning that he is still active and should have made sure that other people have the ball rolling in their court but nada, just radio silence. Reminds me of the problems that Spooky Milk Life has, too much art and too inept or lazy programmers to keep pace with the art.

So I have said this before. Getting total Simbro vibes from this game
As a refresher. Simbro was this cool little flash game with a simple design and decent story.
The dev dies in a car accident and someone tried to string people along for months. Ironically it still has more paid subs than some active games on this site.

We are at a year out+ and nothing to show for it. This game would have to end up being better than biggest game release ever to make up for the pent up frustration of the cucks.. I mean subs to this game.

Such a sad end to a good game

Fucking hell, I am way behind the news on this one. Simbro was good game, long overdue RIP to the dev.

Maybe you should share your stated knowledge and suspicions with DC in the next Picarto stream for his consideration.

If it's malicious intent of the coder, then there's little we can do about it. Only peeps on his Discord or something can get close enough to call it out, I suppose.

And frankly, I don't intent to get involved. Besides, if DC and co. Actually cared they would have released the content sooner or at least give the minor tech fixes with a few scenes along the way to keep people occupied while they work on the main update.

You're exactly describing the 6 pre-tech updates that that they released for the first year and a half of the work on the tech update.

Seeing as more people have downloaded STS than have played six of the seven current GTA titles (and perhaps, even more than GTA V)... perhaps.*
*Note, the "perhaps" is a tongue-in-cheek reply for those who think I'm being serious about the comparison between STS and GTA 6. That said, it is true that STS has had more downloads than any single GTA title had units sold, except for maybe GTA V (maybe). From

, there have been over 70 million downloads of STS (66 million of those downloads from android users). 30 million of those downloads since the start of the tech update. Again, that's just from one site.

GTA V has sold 185M copies. SS doesn't even come close, especially considering its a free, lightweight smut game that can be basically played on anything.

I get you're not being completely serious but even then its wild to entertain the idea that there's a chance STS has more downloads than GTA V sold copies.

Please get your facts out of this thread. This is an emotions based discussion.

Yes, GTA V sold 185 million copies. On one website alone, STS has over 70 million downloads. One single website out of how many? Those 70 million downloads far out numbers any single other GTA release except for GTA V. However, perhaps if all downloads were counted... maybe. And I emphasized maybe several times in my post.

I never said they were the same kind of entertainment. But yes, because it is a free, lightweight smut game that can be basically played on anything - it means it is more accessible for more people to play. It is not unfathomable to think that STS over its 7+ years to have had more downloads across dozens (hundreds?) of sites to choose from than GTA V had unit sales.

And nothing has come in a year, most dev release content anywhere between 2 weeks to 3-4 months tops. There are some that have gone longer without releasing content but those have made sure to not squander their good will and actually show the progress they are making.

You just keep moving the goal posts and bringing up hypotheticals. Enjoy your day.

It's not only more accessible for people to play but the numbers work differently. A copy sold is a copy sold. SS gets downloaded again and again by a lot of the same users because of updates and other reasons.

But regardless of that I doubt other websites contribute enough downloads to even come close to the 70M of the main site. Even if I were outrageously generous and doubled the 70M to 140M it still would need 45M to reach GTA V.

So yeah it's quite unfathomable lmao

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....
When Admins finaly add Aboned tag? 0_0

Aboned? Never.
Abandoned? After 30 April 2024, if it is reported.
But it changes nothing except adding a bit of HTML code.

Nope, just stating facts while you had to resort to slanderous personal attacks because of a desperate need for attention and a thin skin.

It reminds me of those old windows installers moving backwards at a certain point.

That could have been better worded, as soon as the bugs/issues are added the track bar will have to take a step backwards instead of forwards.
Unless there are no bugs/issues

I would give this ON HOLD status instead of ABANDONED.

 

[Count Morado]

I would give this ON HOLD status instead of ABANDONED.

Only applied if the developer makes it known that the development is on hold. Also, if it had been requested last month or earlier, then the abandoned tag could have been applied sooner than it would, currently. On Hold moves to abandoned after 6 months of no update. However, if it were requested between now and 30 April 2024 it would actually extend the time for waiting until applying the abandoned tag.

Again, neither tag does anything to change what is actually occurring with the development. DC will still do what DC do. What F95 do doesn't change what DC do. Also, people will still download and play the game. People who want to, will still subscribe. People have been subscribing for the past year without any update, already. People will still come in here and complain. People will still come in here and wax nostalgic. People will still come in here and troll. Hell, it would probably bring out more trolls in the coming short term (as we have seen by example with comments about the dev team reconfiguring the progress chart).

Unless there are no bugs/issues
