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

"About time" more in line with it took her ~4-5 polls to win

Can we stop acting like Judith is some kind of hero for not being a bitch to the MC? Mia is very nice to the MC too, so is Missy. In the case of Missy it's made abundantly clear she likes MC, but her social circle keeps her from being friends with him. Ronda simply isn't in the MC's social circle, and June is nice to the MC as well once you start talking to her. Roxxy, Becca, the Latinas (who are more or less neutral outside of when you're fucking one of their moms) and Annie are the only ones who are actually mean to the MC, the rest are all friendly. Fact of the matter is that Judith is the weak willed girl who gets bullied, it's part of her character design, which will factor into her storyline when she finally gets her update. In the meantime lionizing her character does no one any good.

I relate to Mia deeply as a character, but Judith and Eve are really the only ones who accept protag as is but Eve doesnt think he cant accept her so she is kinda wishy washy about it for a bit. Missy goes along with Becca and Roxxy like a coward. I also dont like Mia's cowardice in dealing with her mom about protag. As I said, I had my own Helen and would have told my own mom to go fuck herself if she didnt like my gf..... but that happens at times with relatable characters...

Fact of the matter is... Judith is left behind. Even her mom runs the doughnut shop and seems aloof to her. Eve has Odette and her sister who bails her out without second thought (I really wish I could have refunded her bail to sis. would have been a nice option tbh.) She trips over herself to help you. Borrow my spare glasses? A book? Anything? Done. Little complaint.

So... will I continue to approve of her as an adorable character? Absolutely. Preferences are just that. She apparently loses every user poll badly and has zero support from Patrons..... if posts above are to be believed... so dont worry about one non-patron loudly saying how she is a good character... she is.

Hope you are having a wonderful evening.

Odd usage of "about time" considering Rhonda's update likely isn't going to be posted until February of next year.

Are you serious?

 

[tyknjinq]

who say about judith ?
if year 2020 = 0.19 eve & 0.20 main story,
then year 2021 = 0.21 ronda & 0.22 annie,
maybe, just maybe, year 2022 = 0.23 judith & 0.24 dark-side school/ prom

By listening to quite a few of his streams the most probable version seems to be: DC worked for about 10 years in the US animation industry (he mentioned Blue Sky Studios once, maybe someone knows more?) and ended up in a somewhat elevated position. He grew tired of that and it sounds like he never wants to go back to that kind of work. So I think it's somewhat understandable that he doesn't want to end up in that same position of leading and coordinating a team of animators again in his own project.

By now it's seems pretty clear that he wants to draw his own game on his own, unless maybe the perfect partner comes around, and I think people should accept that. After all, it's not like he actively promises to hire more people etc. so it should be really easy for people to simply adjust their pledge on patreon according to what they think the game they are getting is worth. I mean, the size of the team hasn't really changed for years now, so it's not like people don't know what they are getting and can act surprised that it's not growing...

Oh ok did not know that, it just sucks that we have to wait the next 10 years for this to be finished:/

This game competes with Dating My Daughter and SuperPowered in the number of years in development. And probably will win because the ending is not even expected in the near future

Are you really comparing those games with Summertime Saga? Seriously?

Only by development time. Although Dating My Daughter is not a bad but terribly drawn out game.

We still have to get 20.5, which is only about half ready now. (~45%, according to the progress tracker)
I still don't think it'll take 'til February to get 0.21, though.

And Omnikuken was right ion his interpretation of the "about time" I used.

 

[j4yj4m]

Well, time passes quickly. If we add another ~3 months for the whole of 0.20.5, they'll be starting to work on 0.21 in october and given that character updates usually take 4 to 5 months february seems fair.

I have no idea what DC plans were, but spending a whole year on the main story and Consuela probably wasn't the best choice.

Just came here to say this is my absolute fave game. I binge played it in a weekend, and maybe I'll come back here in 2 years to do that again lol. I'm just grateful that all of this wonderful content came for free.

Hope you guys are doing well in these trying times.

Dunno if I am doing something wrong but the shower part is always bugged.

At first I played it normal without the headstart. I got till the shower point of questline which should put Debbie in there but it's always Jennie. The Mc even mentions that Debbie is in there but nope, - you can't advance. It get's completly bugged.

Restarted it and just streamlined the Debby route with the cheats,(edit headstart) - The first shower scene did now work but the second needed one got bugged again with Jenny in there again everytime when actually Debby should in there...

Tbh a wasted ~4 hours of gameplay. It a buggy mess with triggers overlapping all the time. The Aunt and Roxxy got also bugged in my first playtrough and I didn't even bother to try them in the second.

 

[Omnikuken]

Fascinating, wasting 4 hours on 1 quest that takes 5 mins when you skip days until the shower gets the right girl inside. Also, saving mid-dialog/anywhere not the town map, MC's room is a new trend in failing to read basic Patreon release page

Bedding roxxy was sooo satisfying thank you my dudes for making this game i have learned so much about myself which isnt necessarily a good thing but still. My only fear is will impregnating everyone have bad consequences? i mean i think the mc is alpha enough to give love to everyone we need a harem route at the end.

My only fear is will impregnating everyone have bad consequences? i mean i think the mc is alpha enough to give love to everyone we need a harem route at the end.

The current compromise is that there won't be any consequence to pregnancies at all. You'll get their specific dialog and the hospital/daycare stuff and after some time everything turns back as to nothing ever happened. So it's neither a bad consequence nor a real harem.

The only features which may introduce some consequences when it comes to relationships are the dating system and the prom, which will come at some point.

agreed, he really should have made the rhonda update now instead and i'm not saying that just because i like rhonda
