Ren'Py Abandoned Summertime Saga [v0.20.16 Pre-tech] [Kompas Productions]

[Omnikuken]

Pro tip : use cheat mode, hit Tab, skip everything, do the routes you want/need. Game is done within 1-2 hours. No whining, no crying, no fake threats. Wait 2-3 months for the next build, redo earlier steps, new build is done in less than 1 hour. Repeat ad nauseam

If i ever get a hold of a time machine one of the first things im doing is going into the future taking the completed version of summertime saga with the 1000 hours of content it most likely has putting that bitch On a usb and posting it here

Snap-cut to a Twilight Zone style ending where you realize the future doesn't use USB any more.

Counter question: When will there be no more wars in the world?

Proper story's supposed to start at the beginning...

Ain't so simple with this one...

summertime saga is a good but not great game, and the only publicly reason for not being great is that the project manager/all around manger(Darkcookie) has only done his job as a Art/Designer and has fallen victim to the greatest trap of the indie creator, and that is the failure to do project part of management, if Darkcookie somehow managed to spend a little less than 4 months on a update with 4 scenes and is about to do it again there is no excuse, granted i don't know how long it takes to make a scene. But for a man that make a average of 50k(now 65k) a month, NO and I mean 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. The fact that the number one adult creator and the 4th rank on all of patreon doesn't know how to manage is money is laughable and ridiculous. (PS this is a response to the past year of terrible pages on F95 that have made me question my faith in humanity) View attachment 722976 View attachment 722977

I don't know why they have so many Patreons, actually. It's not that good. Just compare NTL with Treasure of Nadia and its other games, every time it improves its work more and more. 2 update for month with 3-4 scenes.
And looks like much more complex game than summertime.

1) Length of time on the internet

2) Hand drawn vs 3D modeling

3) Installed fanbase of one vs the other has grown exponentially

And I just finished watching the last of the Treasures of Nadia... You can't compare them on the grounds of NTL. Especially since that's been gone out of SS for months to years now.

Can anybody please explain to me why people want complete saves anyway? I mean, they download the game, but they want somebody else play it for them.

Or do they want the cookie jar unlocked? This is something a complete save cannot do either.

I don't understand.

No one but people who love to obsessively grind constantly want to start over from the same point for over 20 consecutive times.Let me skip the shit iv'e done or just make save compatibility a thing

Saves are compatible, mostly. And they provide a save.

I've been playing this for a couple of hours now, and it's pretty damn good. But I'm sort of baffled by the artwork. It's both fantastic and really offputting at the same time. I wonder why all the faces are so unattractive. Why does everyone have their FACE on the right side of their head? I just quickly opened up a screenshot in gimp and moved a couple of the faces to be more human-like and suddenly the characters looked a LOT better. Now, many of the characters in this game are drawn to be regular looking, which is great, but that every character (except the lead) has their face misaligned on their head is a weird choice to me.

Also, I wish not EVERY woman had giant boobs. Just a couple of characters with a, b and c-cups would be nice..

Missy, Mia, Eve, Ms. Okita, Josephine and Ms. Ross all fit into a/b/c cups do you not think? I think Liu will soon fit into that category as well.

yea dont get me wrong the models in all of NLT's games are great but its just something about 2d hand drawn games that make it feel more unique lol

Eve, June, Lopez, Martinez, Mia, Missy, Ronda, Ms Bisette, Ms Okia, Ms Ross, Grace, and Josephine all have small to medium size breasts. I feel like there are more with smaller breasts than larger, the smaller ones just get less attention because they're secondary characters or haven't got a route or route update in years.

Wait, NLT was a part of SS production?
Sorry I don't understand the last part that's why I asked

Well, you will get used to it. I was not a fan of the art at the beginning, but I find it quite good looking now

And as others pointed out, not every girl has huge boobs.

NLT is the benchmark when it comes to erotic game devs.

NLT is the benchmark when it comes to erotic game devs.

NLT does everything right, but I do wish at times that he'd spend a bit more time on developing a few more characters and on "game features" in general. I can live with items popping up because it's convinient and all the other "shortcuts" he takes, but in the end you basically get like ~40% of the scenes because you find/take item X (Paricia/Jessia) or because you get them as booty calls. That's bascially what DC did in Jenny's old story and I'm personally not the biggest fan of that.

I mean, it's nice for porn games to get the scenes in without having to care about anything else, but I'm quite happy that DC stopped it. Having said that, Treasure of Nadia is certainly a huge step up for the genre in general.

But yeah, NLT is very focussed on getting his releases out. I personally woudn't be surprised if the game is actually close to being done internally by now.

 

[srksrk 68]

And? Does anybody care to enlighten the rest of us who or what NLT might be?
