There are a bunch of threads asking for games with a small-dicked protagonist or SPH content. They get 4 or 5 responses with a few links and sympathetic responses lamenting the lack of such content, so I created an SPH patch for Summertime Saga. I figure Anon was about 12" before, so I reduced him to about 3". There's already a hairy mod, so why not a small cock mod?
Hundreds of lines of dialog and diary entries have been changed to replace all references to Anon's absurdly large penis with references to his micropenis, and to acknowledge his (mostly unacknowledged) premature ejaculation issues and add new PE content. Anon is also more likely to get an erection when he observes women naked, watching porn, or masturbating. Besides SPH and PE, I sprinkled in a touch of CEI and sissification. I extended some scenes, added a new achievement, and added a lot of SPH content for Jenny -- particularly if you choose the submissive route. This was no simple Find and Replace job. I had to make each change make sense in context, and had to make significant dialog changes to explain why everyone in town is eager to jump on Anon's micropenis. There are changes to almost all of the 1571 .rpy script files, as well as some of the .txt and .json files, to make it so that the change is more than an afterthought -- the fact that Anon is not hung is as integral to the patch as being hung is to the original game. It's taken a couple of weeks and been a labor of lust.
I hope that some of my changes will be incorporated into the main game. I corrected dozens of spelling and punctuation errors (apparently the authors don't know the difference between "ravage" and "ravish"), increased the wait time on longer bits of dialog during sex scenes, and added a few facial expression transitions to match the dialog. Basically, I fixed anything that was broken while I was in the neighborhood. I also added a few lines of dialog for Grace, Eve, and Anon to more realistically and sensitively respond to her coming out if the trans option is chosen. It's a small change, but I feel that it's important for trans characters to be more than just a gimmick. Eve deserves her new content.
With regard to graphics, the newer scenes make use of overlays, so it's trivial to redraw Anon's penis and it gets seamlessly drawn over the images of his body/clothing. Only a few dozen images had to be altered to update multiple scenes with multiple women. Older scenes didn't use overlays, so there are hundreds of images specific to a single scene where I have to shrink his penis and then -- hopefully -- find a similar image of his clothing/body to fill in the hole that his megacock used to cover.
I'm currently doing a final playthrough of the game and fixing every scene in which he has a megacock instead of a micropenis, but it's an 80/20 rule situation -- you get 80% of your result from 20% of your effort. Fixing each remaining scene is potentially an hour of work, and I only have a few hours per day to work on it. Before I devote another couple of weeks to finishing what I've started, I've finally decided to ask if anyone will even want to use this patch when it's done. It's obvious that developers believe that a majority of supporters want a protagonist with an absurdly large penis, but I know from the many request threads that some people want the opposite. This is one of my favorite games, and I wanted to get this patch done before the next version comes out. If no one else is ever going to play it, I won't rush and I'll maintain the project for myself.
