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

[trippleK]

I wonder if we can get DC 100k $ per month, would he be any faster with his updates...

I wonder if everything would be better if people like you didn't exist.

 

[Dostojevski]

what scenes are you on ab out being removed? i played back then but cant really remember it well? not trying to start an arguement, more curious and hoping for a refresher

There was reverse cowgirl costume scene where MC holds Diannes tits while sitting. Twas the best scene ever. I had to find that version so i can replay the scene. Sadly i lost it again. I'm not even sure what exact version was it. I'm positive it was last aveavable just before Diannes story was reworked though.

 

[ogor12]

What rework means in this case? Colors changed or something more? Is it worth playing again from scratch? I guess new and reworked scenes are from mom and sister route only?

 

[m63og]

i cant find walkthrow for this jenny this update .. can any one help me and tell me what replay have it ? or just copy it for me plz

 

[exirock]

Does anyone know when approximately DC want to release v0.18.5?

0.18.5 will be release in 3 or 4 weeks (or more) since the animations are taking 1 week each (total of 3 animations) which is BS that can be done way less time and the bugs fixes cause i have encounter a bunch of them +30

Posters like you do not seem to value your time and money if you think that disliking progress at this stage is impatient.

Stop making excuses for the dev, he is not your friend, he produces a faulty product and the product should be treated as such.

Nice assumption. I give him $2 a month or $24 a year. It's a pittance to help him continue working on the game. I imagine that most of the people pissing and moaning like they are haven't dropped a dime on the game.

Yes, the product is faulty. I just said he's working on fixing it. You need to set your emotion aside and use logical thinking. Adding new content to a faulty project just makes it more faulty.

 

[alwaysforget666]

So, we waited months for 5-6 animations? damn...

 

[macadam]

The game is unplayable in its current state, i can't even pass through the first day. Well.. I guess i'll have to wait for a patch then..

same for me, once i reach the bed, it crash :/

0.18.5 will be release in 3 or 4 weeks (or more) since the animations are taking 1 week each (total of 3 animations) which is BS that can be done way less time and the bugs fixes cause i have encounter a bunch of them +30

Thanks for the info! Alright, will return here after one month or later...

I wasn't able to play that much but it's basically as with Diane. If you know her story and enjoy all those small changes and new nuances, which are indeed everywhere, it seems to be a nice update. If you just want to rush through dialogs, don't reallly care about details and want to have a ton of new scenes, it's not. But that has basically always been the case.

 

[crushmanga]

To be honest, I really enjoyed that update, even if it seems little, but I really appreciate Jenny's remodeling, it's way better than before, specially playing every update makes the player go through the whole story a few times, which makes me get sick of the same scenes and characters more and more. so, a remake is a nice refreshment. looking forward for future updates. I thought I'd help by giving my feedback as well since I only post questions if I ever post. oh and Debbie looks awesome now, too bad you only get to see her new model in a very few occasions.

Perhaps you are correct, but it helps if you assume that they do so you do not have this misshapen view on how to handle criticism when you call it all pissing and moaning. Being this defensive is not a healthy relationship with a product

I am thinking logically, I value my time and money, we aren't on the same wavelength if you think that the last decent update being over a year ago is a small issue and that possible internal issues are an acceptable excuses.

6 months for one character's few scenes? Shut up and take my money!
I understand that it can be bugs after release, it's completely normal. But really, all this time for only this content?

For the money he earns I understand that this is his full job. If I work with the same time progress, I would finish web site landing pages on years.
Well, most likely I would be fired on a few weeks with this kind of progression.

Totally true.
Did you just see the amount of cash they get every month ? Almost 50k $ dudes !
Make a simple calculation...

3 members for art team : 1 chief and 2 assistants (5000$ + 5000 + 5000) = 15k $
3 members for coding team : 1 for pure coding, 1 for coding & posing and 1 for coding & bug fixing (5000 x3) =15k $
1 webmaster : 5000 $
1 writer : 5000 $

Differents costs of production : 5-10k$

Why 5000 for salary ? Because it's more simple for understanding the situation : with 5000 $ for salary, every month, you can have a comfortable life (not luxuous of course, but simply comfortable) and it can be your daily professionnal activity.

And, what do we have ? NOTHING except a mere release in six fuc**** months ???
One advice my friends, do like me and cancel your patreon subscription to this project. They think you’re idiots and cash cows...

 

[Ungawa]

Wasn't what I was expecting after 5 months. But, you get what u get atleast. I don't support his patreon so I can't really say shit.

It sure ain't stopped a truckload of mofos around here...

 

[alwaysforget666]

Thanks for the info! Alright, will return here after one month or later...

most likely in a few months my dude

 

[PatreonTed]

There was literally nothing new, damn shame really, damn shame.

You literally need to look up the meaning of literally, because you are totally wrong. While the Jenny storyline is similar, there's been a ton of rewrites, and a ton of art that is new or changed.

The problem here is that you see the game as a product : DC is not selling the game, you guys are DONATING money to him and the game is totally free, no one is forcing you to give him your money. Plus, I don't see how he makes you lose your time since you're not devoting a second to this project.

 

[j4yj4m]

While I respect your argument, it's such a moot point. Sums like 12 to 25 bucks a year are less than an hourly wage for most. That's nothing anybody should care about, let alone complain about it for hours, days or weeks, as some seem to do.
If you aren't happy it's totally fine to cancel your pledge, but complaining this much because one spends a couple of bucks (if any) and get's a less than one expected is indeed quite strange. It's like complaining for days that the last movie you watched or the last 2 cocktails you had weren't good. It's fine if that's your opinion but in the end nobody will really care about it for more than 5 minutes.

 

[Jonboy80]

Perhaps you are correct, but it helps if you assume that they do so you do not have this misshapen view on how to handle criticism when you call it all pissing and moaning. That's way to defensive.

I don't mind critism if it's constructive. But most of it comes off more as uneducated raging. Comments such as "Six months and THIS is all we get?!" shows me that 1. They don't know how to count as it's been five months and 2. They don't understand what it actually takes to develop a game. They think it's simple without offering anything that is actually helpful.

The last large update was a year ago, yes. So what? It doesn't mean it was the last decent update. Diane's was fine but not large. I value my time and money as well. But guess what? My time, between updates, is spent on other things. Various video games, hobbies, jobs, etc. My life doesn't revolve around the development of a porno-game. Two dollars out of my monthly income isn't something I place much value on.

Also, it's not possible internal issues. Have you taken a dive into the inner workings of the game? It's a bit of a mess, to be honest. I haven't downloaded the latest update to really compare code to 17.5 or 16 as I'm waiting for the first few hotfixes but I'm willing to bet it looks a bit better now than it did.

Thank You. So for the new and reworked content I should replay aunts route(and mom/sis because they are required to do so iirc)?
