Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5091] [Kompas Productions]

[iooooodr]

How to win the internet :

1- Come out crying DC makes too much $/month and he blows at managing
2- Post graphs showing his $/month and Patron counts are only going up for the last 4 years
3- Get countered hard and pointed out that his argument is invalid (posting images that counter your own point is bad)
4- Come back pretty mad throwing issy fits and threats
5- ???????
6- Profit

1- never say he make too much money and ever say that people have a right to pay him????,and if you read it at all you would know what i was talking about, a project manager(that he is because he is the lead) job is to set deadlines and make things ship his most common complaint are no deadlines and ungodly update times.

2- the images strengthen my point???

no reason that any bottleneck in production could not be fixed in a matter of weeks and even if he doesn't have enough cash for ever one more staff member(for the company he should own???) it would maybe only take him 2.5k/5k monthly for 30k/60k a year and that assume that all other staff menmber make over 80k a year and still have enough for a 40k emergency fund

3- had somebody lie about my arguing with bad logic

He must be really an epic trashlord if his $/month and Patron counts never went down in the ~4 years he's been making Summertime. Either that or the people splurging $ at him are dumber than rocks, ~4 years of dumb rocks ....

Side note : those top 3 Patreons feel WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY more trash tier than DC. Over 158k for podcasts ? #1 dude makes psycological videos ? Guess my 2nd point for why DC's $/month never goes down is answered right there

4- come back to find somebody making me a straw man and didn't actually respond only use downright copy paste arguments,I said that if i had to clap back it would be a slaughter

5- go to sleep

6-found two people talkin like reasonable adults about a games they like(i guess profit)

I don't think you are right here, though. The game never had any deadlines and those who pay know that. Instead you get a very transparent development process and you can see/write to DC almost daily, in case you want to.
In the end it'll always be a compromise anyway. If you set a deadline and miss it, as many devs do, people complain, if you set a deadline and take shortcuts ingame to meet it and push out content (like for example NLT does) it may impact the quality of the game, etc.

In short, somebody will always complain.

Can you guys stop being NPCs? It has been the same dialogue tree for the last 2 or 3 years. Don't you guys get tired of arguing about the same stuff?

Ok, first time posting but have a question, loving the game, well thought out and great script, but I can't finish Jennys path, I think I'm close to the end but it tells me to check her diary for ideas on how to make her warm to me but there's nothing in there. I'm seeing the glitch where pages 20 and 21 are the same so I think I'm missing the last page, I've checked through the previous comments but can't find a fix, has anyone else come across this?

A ton of people enjoy Chapo, which fills a barren market for commentary on the left end of politics. They have a massive fanbase. I honestly wonder how they match up to Rogan's numbers....... Looks like 3 things with big fanbases..... and then SS.

Chapo just went through a ban on Reddit so people just noticed its existence. And I mean, Reddit banned like 40+ Chapo related subs with thousands of people for being against cops and brutality.

So them moving to Patreon is par for the course to show their support when they are in effect in a digital migration.

Though I'm still wondering why people are doing Mental Masturbation exercises over SS numbers. 4 Years and some things just don't change.

What are we, a bunch of filthy pirates, supposed to do? Yell at him to make his art faster? Tell him to make the new patch with less content?

And so, more people jerk themselves off on the internet, fuming at adult niche game makers wishing they had that money during a pandemic. I'd rather do something a little more exciting...

No. I've finally got accustomed to random teenagers with spiky blue hair barging into my apartment to look in my drawers. I don't want to have to adapt to something new all over again.

Glitch aside, MC will go and say he should go to the shop and buy her something. You then go to the gift shop on 2nd floor and buy her a necklace. Check the walkthrough on main page (not here) if you're still stuck.

is there a walkthrough mod???

 

[srksrk 68]

is there a walkthrough mod???

Lain's mod used to be, but no longer has the walkthrough I think.

My mod (see signature) fixes the To-Do list in MC's phone, and adds other useful things like character icons on the map so that you know where everybody is, and much more. Also, it includes the link to the official walkthrough, but you don't need the mod to access that.

I keep wanting to play this (again) but then realise the Ronda update is next and kinda wanna wait for that.
Two years? Two years. See you then.

"biggest update yet" only have 2 sex scenes and takes 5 months

Every single update is "Biggest super mega hyper ultra largest update in the history of mankind" and after 5 months we always get few scenes, and sometimes its so poorly tested that there are not working scenes in cookie jar.

Have you forgotten that everything is hand-drawn? That accounts for the majority of time.
If the game breaks for you, it's because you're TRYING to make it break.
Also, take it for granted that unless told otherwise, older saves WILL break the game or cause it crash on load.

It's true that there were bugs like that in the release versions. But they almost all got fixed in the x.1 bugfix versions that followed soon after.

hey und hallo ich bin jz schon recht lange darbei und ich würde mich freuen wenn es eine deutsche version rauskommen könnte

DC finishes the art long before the coding is finished for virtually every single update. Hand-drawn art is not holding up the development of this game at all.

i think the dev is trying to get the game translated into various laguages

The code tasks also include bug testing which take a lot of time.

He won't hire another coder. He might swap him around like he did with pandadude and dogeek though. And coding is the last step in the dev cycle. Either learn to cringe and wait or go to Patreon/Discord, splurge insane $ at DC and force him to hire some more dev dudes.
