If the Dev is watching this forum

If they are, they aren't telling anyone and they aren't giving any indication in their work that they care about what is said in this thread. They haven't communicated on this site since 2021, posting only 10 times in this thread from 2018 to 2021.

maybe someone with the knowledge to mod renpy games could add it

Have you looked at the mods link in the OP just below the download links for the game...

Naughty Tribute mod, from the List of Features spoiler:


Also, you could possibly use UnRen to force enable rollback:


But you should follow the warnings about using or enabling rollback in Summertime Saga. The code is already unstable and is lucky to work as it is (hence one of the major reasons why the tech update has been underway for 2 years, 9 months - 26mb of code/script that is tenuously held together is being recoded to be more stable, etc). Using rollback may fuck your gameplay even worse than not having it to begin with. YMMV, User Beware.

if you are going to argue that Dark Cookie (who does all the writing and art) is not the one taking at least 95% of the profits while tossing crumbs to the rest of the "development team" aka nobodies like discord managers and sound guys (SS doesn't even have fucking sound lmao), you may be the most dishonest person on f95.

Since you want to continue to go off-topic - I moved my response the off-topic thread. See ya there.

This game is good and has a lot of good things in it and really like it. But the last year has been very disappointing with content and updates, I only see small updates about progress and wallpapers, but nothing comes out right to the players.

I was hoping for a big update for either Christmas or New Year but nothing happened.

 

[Senigata]

Look at the dev of Light of my life, Naughty Road. His updates take a long time as well. Last update was well over a year, and despite that, it's a much friendlier comment section.

Because the guy actually takes the time to treat you as a human being. It's why I donate to him. A bit of respect goes a very long way, unlike this dev, who could not give a shit, and actively lied to his customers.

Isn't that the game where the chicks all look like goblins, which spawned the term gobbo for Daz games over on 4chan?

 

[Count Morado]

even if what ever they have made so far buggy as hell at least give us soemthing to tie us over like come on,if they releasded even a fraction of the update ill take it.

They did that with 6 pre-updates from April 2021 to October 2022.
People complained about how little it was. People complained it was only making the tech update take even longer. People complained their favorite waifus weren't getting the pre-update content. People complained. Period.

See a trend?

Remember that the tech update that they are working on is not expected to have any new lewd content. So, even if they could/would do a partial tech update release - that means even more additional time to make sure the code only affects what they want it to affect and not something else not yet updated, more additional time to play test each partial release to see if it is working properly for any changes up to that date, means that some posed characters won't be posed properly (either against the new 16:9 display backgrounds or face on the heads or arms on the bodies or in comparison to other character(s) that might me in that scene). And you'd still have no new lewds - the current game you can download on this site and on the developer's website for free is the lewds you can expect in the next update. Might as well just play the current if you need lewds that much.

And won't happen for months, or longer. Even then - again - the next update is the tech update that they are working on and is not expected to have any new lewd content.

Gobbo came first, and got applied to them - but yes, that kind of comment in that game thread will get a commenter booted.

Also it's 2024. 4chan is so 2005.

That's how you spot the anons in here, and I assure you some of the /aco/ dudes are very much members of this board despite shitting on it 24/7, too.

That's def very true, that and it only takes a few bad thread actors to ruin it for everyone else. Definitely the case here.

I can't believe people are still arguing more money donated on Patreon HAS to mean more resources put into the game.
Like you can force someone to turn their hobby into a full time job by throwing money at them

True - though, to be clear without dismissing your comment, this is DC's full-time job and has been so for years. Currently, he has on contract a writer, a coder, several posers, plus support roles.

Number of tasks to be done, according to DarkCookie:

Apr 21: 147 - 000 = 147
Jan 22: 273 - 173 = 100
Jan 23: 551 - 441 = 110
Jan 24: 658 - 514 = 144

If people here wouldn't complain about the lack of updates, this thread would probably only be 1000 pages long.

It's getting ridiculous slowly but surely.

I really think people that comments this type of stuff never had a real job.
Lets say after taxes, patreon shares, licenses he gets 55.000. He could not pay the team that currently has a full time wage with that money.

is good that he doesn't feel pressured to work for other people (good for him. truly )

but the concept of a "patron of the arts" is not "we give you money to not produce results and live free".
is funding to see that promising talent doesn't go to waste without finishing anything.

Think Leonardo Da Vinci. his patreons included the Cesare Borgia, the Medici family and others. a lot of his works were commissions under the patronage of those people.

by definition a Patron is a customer. in this case a paying customer.
there is a big difference with Patronage vs Charity. both give money a person. but one is expected results.

lastly. why do you call all the people here "freeloaders"? are you sure people here are just unhappy about paying and not seeing results for almost a decade? you know... a lot are probably ex patreons. you know... the people that payed so this thing got started.
high and mighty attitude toward others, that you think are freeloaders is not good for your case.

I'll answer this here - and the rest in off-topic, since your entire post is completely off-topic:
I am not being high and mighty - I said "fellow freeloaders" including myself in the group. Please read that again. I'm a fucking freeloader and I've said that time and again on this site. I'm being honest. You should too.

See you in off-topic.

We are, by and large, freeloaders here, so he's correct to call us that. The few patrons on here don't change the vast majority of mainly lurkers who have an account to download games for free.
Thems the facts.

>update: new arms
its so over

 

[dirgetka]

Do I look like I care about whatever it is supposed to be when they're still selling it as piecemeal? Anyone who defends that is the reason why modern gaming is utter dogshit and absolutely has no ground to stand on to bitch about DC here.

No need to be a bitch about it
