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

[Omnikuken]

I really do love this game and I hope nothing but the best for it but, almost 4 months of no update and you're making 72k+ a month on patreon. Next update is hopefully a hefty one.

I'll concede you that 3.5 months is indeed almost 4, the rest isn't worth mentionning. Or maybe : next update is batch #2 > 5-6 new scenes/angles to already finished girls routes (that you probably won't bother go check who anyway). Then after that is the tech build > 100% code-related and nothing lewd (aside the 2 batch we got in-between, and maybe a 3rd if DC feels like it). You'll then have to wait another 4-5 months for R(o)nda's update, which hopefully won't fulfill your hunger for lewds and you'll come back crying DC made almost 500k since you posted this quote .......

Of that 280k you estimate since the last update, how much money are you out?

If we go by the last guesstimate that dudes pay around 3.30$ a month, he's around ~14$-15$ max. That's taking into account he actually pays for something he has no interest in and isn't just coming here to moan DC made more $ in a month than he'll do in a year. A lot of "ifs" and speculation, for a dude with 3 posts in almost a year

Eve's redesign almost completely changed her looks. And gave her a thigh gap.
People were just fine with how she was. Saying "Nope, you can't have cute Eve anymore" was kinda harsh.

I am partial to the newer Eve myself!

I remember in Patreon's status update ,there wili be a poll this week.

DC just said

When will the "Tech Update" be released?
What we have to decide shortly on a potential 3rd batch of scenes for you guys while you wait for the Tech Update to be done. If we so, it will have very little dialogue and simply be new angles to existing scenes.
Poll?
I will be posting a poll to see what type of content you prefer in our updates this coming week. Something that will help us narrow down the things you enjoy in our releases.

I'm waiting for the new poll.

 

[McSlut]

what will the poll be about? the patreon post is pretty vague about it's contents. personally i'm hoping he just goes straight to rhonda, the last batch of scenes was nice but i don't need a third one especially if it's really just new angles. if it was new scenes with some dialogue (like most new stuff from the first batch) i could get convinced otherwise if he puts grace and becca back on the poll again

And that's perfectly fine. I just preferred previous Eve.

 

[Sgrodolo]

When do you feel like the new update will be released? March?

You duders need to be a bit more vague on "next update" : next update is batch 2 by the end of the month-ish, then next update is tech build whenever DC feels like it, then next update is R(h)onda about 4-5 months later. So which 1 of those 3 were you talking about ?

 

[Bingoogus]

And that's perfectly fine. I just preferred previous Eve.

I'm curious how she looked, is there an archive of some kind?

j4yj4m posted them somewhere in the thread. Search for his posts/ask him, you might get lucky

This 'party' scene with Iwanka and the treehouse scene before it is the most irritating and cringiest shit i've ever been subject to. Is it like, really old content that's on the list for revamping? Erik is the most tedious cringefest, so much so i actually want to punch is fucking head in and his mother is suddenly a complete jewish mother stereotype? I feel like this scene is massively out of date or a deliberate satirical piece that i just happen to not gel with on any level.

No, that's actually new content which is about ~1 year old and it's going to stay. It's prettty save to say that the jewish stereotype will be expanded fruther once Erik/Mrs. Johnson/June get their actual update.

As for Eve, I posted her old and new sprites over here.

For real?... That was by far the absolute worst shit i have ever had to endure and the guys making the game think that was good content? I am not exaggerating when i say i wanted to stab Erik about 20 different times throughout both scenes, i just finished the party one and let out a small cheer for it finally being over... and that's the newer content? Wtf did it replace, i can't imagine how this rotten garbage could be an improvement over what came before it, especially since these two scenes are the only two so far i've had any issue with at all, i've been absolutely loving this game and am down to just the main story content and Mia's route left to do so i'm pretty sure i have a good gauge at the average quality of the content in this game and those 2 scenes where so unbelievably far below that average i can't even grasp how the fuck that shit passed the approval process.

Cheers for the link

They're new for the main route (Wanka's scenes) and don't replace anything. You do seem scarred though, might wanna see a doctor over scenes from a pron game making you cringe so much

Scarred, not so much, confused more than anything. I've been on a lovely train ride across the open country only to have had it derail down the side of a mountain and yet everyone else seems to be like "this is fine, not sure what your complaining about, this wreckage good".

As mentioned, it didn't replace anything. As general rule of thumb for the development, everything that was made before 0.15 will be reworked significantly, the 0.15 and 0.16 content will be reworked/amended a bit and everthing that happened from 0.17 onwards is basically supposed to stay as it is, while small changes are of course possible.

That basically means that Erik's, Mia's and Debbie's routes need a complete overhaul (which will include changes to their stories), the teachers and Roxxy will get a small touchup and the rest is meant to stay as it is, with small additions here and there.

i think there are many people who think that the main story has been kinda lackluster including the iwanka part. i have no desire to replay the main story again even though i think liu and maria are pretty decent

I really loved the Consuela story line i wish we could get update on her .. Same goes with Mrs. Johnson . Ivanka stuff was such let down.

 

[BigBoiMarkus]

game is really great and wish to see more updates more frequently but so far. its a amazing game

 

[srksrk 68]

Not that it matters or that I care, but I like the new content very much. Of course that won't change a thing cause haters gonna hate anyway.

 

[miewski]

The game needs a lot more Iwanka content, how does she usually do in polls?
