Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5091] [Kompas Productions]

[Domdeyso]

Unfortunatly it is a remake uptdate. When i play on 16/9 remake : i've only seen a few "redrawned" Arts this and there. We need to wait, probably 2 or 3 updates for new contents. (come back in 2 or 8 years for a finished product!! hehe)
You can watch dev's picaro stream to see the speed of Dark Cookies. (He is a nice, great, and honest guy!!!) But, also : the master of MILK <3

Thanks

Yeah I'm not reading all that shit. But I'm pretty sure you aren't allowed to leave the house without a helmet and a chaperone.

You're not reading it, or you can't?

In the last stream, DC was showing a whole new UI to the viewers and it should tell you that he's still unsure as to the final direction his game is going.

IMHO, this entire game is a way for him to play with, and to test ideas to implement, as well as him taking the time to go back and improve areas where it's needed (art/story/coding). I know that there are going to be a lot of varying opinions on that, seeing as some just want the old art, and then just push forward until completion.

Unfortunately, that's not going to happen. So, for anyone that prefers that idea? Best to jump ship, because this games finish date is going to be a long time from now.

Some people either don't know, or don't remember that the game itself was originally just him goofing around to see if he could even make one, by learning renpy on his own. The art was sloppy and rushed by his own admission, and for a lot of the early streams, they were just a reason for him to drink and draw, where some of the streams had very little to do with the game at all.

He brought on others when he started getting support by backers, and a lot of them enjoyed watching the streams, as much as they did playing the game. It's one of the reasons why people won't stop supporting him, no matter how many people on a pirate site tell them to do so.

In short, he's not milking anything, he just has zero plans to finish it on anyone else's schedule but his own.

And he'd also be the type of person to drag it out even further, just to spite anyone who tells him to hurry up. Remember that.

Here's the clip (I decided to pull it from the VOD when I read your post). Note his vision of 100, 200, 300 total characters in the game. There is no plan to end the development of this game at any foreseeable time.

I included captions (ai created) for those who can read and kept the audio available for those who cannot (low res because of 10MB limit for attachments on F95, also audio is a bit muddied).

Since you just mentioned it, was the rap minigame even still a thing in the pre-tech version of the game. Or was that removed together with the friendship between Eve and the rappers?
I honestly don't remember.

Had to check and yeah it's still in there.


The only option I have is "nevermind". I don't have an older save. So idk if it's reserved for when you're trying to win over Eve or you just max it out and can't do it anymore.

Honestly the most unrealistic part of the game. Big titty cow and vampire waifus? ok. Fighting underwater monster to get some mermaid puss? fair. Winning a rap battle against (not) Wiz Khalifa? No fucking chance.

Any kind hero to share a save file pretty please ?

If you are surprise about his age …
1st : college depend on country. In my college, I was 9 to 13. I think it's something like US "secondary"
2nd : I was ahead in my studies, I too was 16 when I started university (your "college" here).

But, well, never mind. This game really disappointed me when it came older

In what country do they use college to refer to age 9 to 13?

In some EU countries the system is different
College -> middle school (11-15)
Lyceum -> high school (15-18)

And if I remember University is an all around term for post-secondary. Everything is university apart from some being called "school of ____" which is usually reserved for art degrees and whatnot.

There's a link to the save file request thread in the first post of this thread - just below the download links:

Are you wanting a save file or do you just want to see all the CGs in the Cookie Jar gallery?

If all you want is to see all the CGs in the gallery: Click on the WiFi symbol of the in-game phone several times to access the cheat settings for unlocking the gallery 100%. To learn more: see my FAQ in 80,603

The Save Request Thread's has no latest updated saves at this moment it seems.
Not sure about the Wi-Fi Icon this might be just on my side, but after pressing the symbol several times the gallery doesn't seem to unlock, maybe I'm doing something wrong?

when I asked what country, it was because I was trying to figure out if it was english or not.
AFAIK post brexit there are no longer english speaking countries in the EU.
So, I am still wondering what language uses "college" for middle school.

some quick checks on common languages shows that in french "collège" is listed as the translation for middle school. and "université" is listed as the translation for college.
but... this is just different languages using similar sounding words to have different meanings

Learning it as a foreign language in school, and having it as your country's main language, are two completely different things.
In france they speak french, everything is in french. English is used only for interacting with tourists

Might as well add to this off-topic excursion:

Both Ireland and Malta are members of the EU and list English as an official language of their countries. (edit: 98% and 88% fluency)

Yes, your finding of "collège" is apt - and your excuse about different languages using homonyms for different meanings is not - at least not in this case. Because, if you had continued your research, you would have found that the English word is a descendent of the French word around the 14th century which comes directly from the Latin "collegium."

Also, in the mid-nineteenth century, Brits started using the term "college" in the naming of large public schools and institutions of secondary education (particularly private schools) --- as seen with King's College School, Magdalen College School, Cardiff Sixth Form College, Queen Ethelburga's College, and more.

Being descended from latin is irrelevant.
Right now those are different words in different languages with different definitions.

The original argument (which I am arguing against) is that the game, in its english version, uses the word "college". And that this word can also mean middle school.
However, this word is used in an english sentence. Meaning it is using the english word and thus the english definition.
Not the latin word, not the french word, not the german word, nor any other latin based language.

In fact, borrowing words and then altering them is the most common reason for having homonyms in different languages with different definitions.
Because those are different languages

I was trying to investigate if there really exists an ENGLISH dialect where people use the ENGLISH word college in an ENGLISH sentence to indicate a middle school.
So far all I found is that in french they use a very similar (but not exactly the same, there is an epee symbol) to indicate a middle school. but you wouldn't expect such a random placement of french word within an english sentence in an english game. and as such there is no ambiguity about what this game means by the term college. (it means place where adults go to learn after graduating from K12 education)

im not saying that the main language isnt whatever is native to that country, im simply saying that the presence of foreign language (english in this scenario) doesnt suddenly cease to exist because of politics, millions of europeans speak english at least to some degree and that will have a knock-on effect in wider society and culture, many languages have changed in the last 100 or so years to become more anglicised, adopting english words or english-sounding words in place of the "correct" words. much of my family is native italian and they do this. its not like these algicided words will suddenly revert back to the correct native terms now that brexit has happened, they have simply embedded themselves within the country's (or local area's) vernacular and culture, its simply just part of life in a globalised world and a world with heavy american and english influence.

Languages change from exposure to each other. Yes.
But I explain the point I was getting to here:

this is the reason half of the english language has words which seem similar to french or germanic languages. because english is LITERALLY the result of those languages (and some others) slowly integrating with one another over millenia. for example the words for "cow" and "beef" are different because the poor workers in the 12th century who looked after the cows called them cows but the rich french aristocrats who had just invaded the country called the meat "boeuf" which eventually got simplified to "beef", whereas most other languages call the meat and the animal of original the same thing or something similar to one another (if im remembering correctly)

interesting. I do enjoy a good etymology factoid.

as for the answer to this, as a native english speaker living in england i have never heard of this happening though it wouldnt surprise me if somewhere people did call middle school "college". but generally the school system is described as:
"primary school" - ages 5 -> 11
"secondary school" (sometimes "high school") - ages 11 -> 16
and then you go onto EITHER:
"sixth form" (just 2 additional years of high school with different qualifications at the end)
OR:
"college" (same additional 2 years but standalone i.e. no high school on within the same campus/teaching environment etc, and "sixth form" equivalent qualifications at the end

(sixth form and college are equivalent to one another, just different environments. sixth form is more like high school, college is kind of half way between high school and university)

THEN:
"university" where you get undergraduate degrees and above so usually 18+

but there are THOUSANDS of dialects and subtle differences across the country so i wouldnt be surprised at all if the names vary to literally anything across the different parts of the country
