Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5003] [Kompas Productions]

[itsyeboii]

Holy shit just slap this game with the [Abandoned] tag and be done with it. 2+ years waiting for this update. It's over. Accept it.

How is it over? We got pre-tech updates while waiting and DC streams consistently. I get being annoyed and dissatisfied at waiting so damn long for an update that won't bring any new content(?), even speculating on DC being slow/unbothered on purpose because it stretches out his revenue stream is something I completely get.

But saying it's abandoned and telling other people to accept that, while you have zero grounds to make that claim is fucking stupid.

Everyone has made their point clear
Why was it not listened to ?

Best thread on this site. An everlasting war of people complaining about the tech update and DC dick riders trying to shame them for not spending money on a project they lost faith in. The best part though is the genuine discussion in between. This chat is a cafeteria food war and some are just sitting and discussing their meal in peace while shit hits the fan.

You can also let it go and focus on what is important to you
It just rarely happens here Have a good day

If her update only consists of redone scenes then the development cycle should be shorter as well, so dissatisfied people don't have as much of a reason to be angry.

That's true, though creating the scenes will likely take the majority of DC's time and adding a few bits and bobs here and there wouldn't matter that much. One would hope...

... although I do think he's smart enough to give some juicy new content for a while now after the shitshow of a tech-update is done.

We should get 3 big story updates, once the tech update is done, so I think he'll create enough leeway to start some unpoluar stuff again. I hope we'll get Mia, Debbie and Roxxy for 0.25/26/27 - at least to me, that would make the most sense.

I don't really care about any character in this game apart from the mother.

amen

amen

If people don't understand now that nothing will change
find something else instead of hoping
Life goes on with me or without me

I've been getting this error a lot when I try to save lately. I am running one mod, naughty tribute. Any thoughts?

My only thought on this is: put it in spoiler tags so it doesn't clog up the forum as much. Other than that I can't help you.Best of luck!

You're right, Jennie benefitted from her remake way more than Debbie would because of her shitty story, that's why I think Debbie's remake will focus solely on redoing her scenes. If her update only consists of redone scenes then the development cycle should be shorter as well, so dissatisfied people don't have as much of a reason to be angry.

But like you said, it's an update that needs to be done for the betterment of the game, just like the tech-update. It's also not like DC ever cared about fan reception, although I do think he's smart enough to give some juicy new content for a while now after the shitshow of a tech-update is done. It'll take a minute before Debbie gets her update but I'm fine w that.

I've thought on some of the changes to the lewd scenes that might make them better. I love the idea of the scene of the MC and Debbie in the kitchen but the execution isn't great IMO. I was thinking changing the angle so that Debbie faces the dining room door to keep a lookout for Jenny. I was thinking that when you get to the fastest speed, her left breast falls out of the robe and swings over the side of the counter (similar to the Iwanka scene).

The scene with Debbie on the couch needs the breast sucking added back in for the final version and made less goofy looking.

I think the scene with Debbie on the washer should be changed to her grinding rather than bouncing.

The change angle on the scene with Debbie in her bed in the day and with the MC in his bed at night have so much potential, but they're both the exact same and terrible.

Would love for the BJ scene in the car to have the MC peal back Debbie's robe to expose her breast during her going down on him.

Just a few thoughts on changes I think would be good. Anyone got any other thoughts they'd like to share?

Yes, this whole "making sure Jenny doesn't find out" thing is actually something they could elaborate a little bit more. It would add a little bit of extra suspense to her story and I'd think people would like it.

And yes, in my opinion they should make the effort to improve her scenes, simply because I'd say that Debbie's story is probably one of the most played in the game. I don't have any evidence backing this up, but I'd simply guess that a lot of people will play her story along playing the main story and others. Given that a lot of her content happens in MC's house, it's much more likely that people will continue her story, even if they are technically focussing on somebody else and don't like her thaaat much in the first place.

Is it possible while he had down time for the tech update (while the other team members worked on their part) Dc drew extra stuff to help speed up later updates? Kind of like preloading the art so to speak?

I heard from Mayor Rump that Darkcookie is surrounded by other cookies...
One of them is called Grumpy Cookie and is posting on this forum under the suspicious name of Omnikuken...

Reports on my death have been greatly exaggerated. Also, no need for suspicions : it's a known fact I'm a payed shill and make more $/month than most dudes around here, changing names and all

 

[GhostFaceGuy]

Guys, does anyone have news regarding tech update? According to the site it progresses is 2 percents since September. Is it correct information?

You have everything we have - most everything about the update is posted on the /news page of the Summertime Saga website. Posts that are for patreon subscribers only are normally copy/pasted here in this thread, as well.

Given that they always add additional content/tasks while they are working, the overall percentage seems pretty much meaningless. They completed 15 posing tasks, but at the same time added 15 new ones. As nobody is going to compare the numbers in detail, it basically looks like close to no work is happening.

DC has always been rather bad at promoting his game...

 

[whereislotion]

Was there any rumors about this game coming to steam? As an early access game of course

 

[j4yj4m]

In short, no. DC always said that he wants to provide the game for free and given that steam may even require some changes and additional work, there don't seem to be any plans.
