Your whining is not gonna change anything , and here is public forum not your personal blog or something
stop crying , go get a job so you won't fail both important part in your life , at least you earn some money.

We already saw tons of crying message like this over the past 4 years ,people still don't learn.

If you got some constructive advice which could accelerate game making , contact the develop team directly, they will like it very much ; and your emotional crap is nonsense to all of us , so you could just save it , maybe post it on your personal blog will be more appropriate , at least not on the public space.

2nd place is 3D asset swap, rofl. So much for "original art".

At least 1st place if the ungodly good What a Legend. Bit sad Summertime only took 3rd place, anything less than a tied 1st place with Legend looks like a sell-off from the judges

There was no way SS would be higher rated than WAL. DC puts a lot of effort into his work but the two people from WAL play in an even higher league.^^'

You are talking about Lain's mod, which has not been updated to the latest version (and probably never will).

Naughty Tribute Mod provides an improved phone hint system which closes the gaps the original one has (some routes only showed "No hints for this quest" or were not visible at all), plus some other features like character miniatures on town map so that you see where everybody is. Also it provides an external internet link to the original walkthrough for user convenience.

I was thinking the same. But you have to distinguish between normal posing and animations. The "normal" character posing during dialogs in What a Legend is the best I've ever seen, with independently moving arms, hands, eyes, lips, faces etc. I cannot imagine the effort this takes to get it all right. But I think that animations in Summertime Saga are better still.

What a Legend is still in a very early stage and has quite some potential, but I fear updates already begin to come slower the more complicated things get.

The good thing about What a Legend in that regard is, that they've more or less committed to one level of art/animation quality right away and we almost certainly won't see this huge change from "very basic/almost sloppy"to "quite well done" as we've had it here. Sure, there'll some feature/cut scene creep but it shouldn't be as noticeable.

So I guess there's hope that it's going to be quite a bit more constant, as long as they can keep the coding/posing/implementation/testing running. Given that both Chestnut and DC seem to draw more or less fulltime on these projects, I'd expect the content "per time unit" to be roughly the same. Having said that, it seems like the Magicnuts and Chestnut are a little more effective right now and don't spend as much time on luxuries as does DC.

Next to the short public one in the post above mine, there's a version for patrons which includes the overall progress. It hasn't been posted for quite a while here though, but you may find an older version somewhere.

You mean like taking some of that money and hiring more people?! Their 5 man team just isn't cutting in, but they don't want to hear that. Hell give srksrk68 a job, integrate the Naughty Tribute mod into the official game, then have'em do coding and bug fixes. That alone will greatly polish the game, and speed up the development.

Yes and no. Ultimately every 2D game is limited by the artist, in this case DC, who is already drawing full time. Adding more people in other positions may (greatly) improve the process and refine the game, but it won't speed up the development as a whole.
In other words, if DC needs another 3 years to draw the art for the game, the game will be done in 3 years plus the time it takes to prepare the final release and it won't matter whether they hire more coders, posers or so.

Hiring more artists on the other hand is a completely different matter and would require DC to change his own role from being the one who is drawing his game to being the one who mainly supervises/instructs other artists. And that's a step no 2D weg here has really managed until now. It looks like DC doesn't want to take it and for example Magicnuts/Chestnut seem at least sceptical about it, too.

Legend and Summertime winning pretty high was a given, what's more concerning was those slobs put a 3D asset-swap in 2nd place in "original art" category. It being above Summer is also questionnable :unsure:
