Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5258] [Kompas Productions]

[Username7]

They done a Code restructure not too long ago, to reduce the mess it had during the years, now if its a mess again its their fault, if i recall was Main coder and they hired a freelance to help recode most of the critical parts of game aswell some other things.

He could hire someone else to help, but at this point he wont, to not make any work conflict that can lead to delay of the tech update, but also he doesnt hire anyone else cause the money reduced from Feb 2022 to Feb 2023, which was a significant lose, you might say that makes no difference but it does, money drops = quality and development goes down.

Yes they did rework some of the code throughout 2018 and 2019 but that was mostly QOL on front end and only on the parts of the game they were actively working on at the time, Dogeek the coder back then did end up just saying fuck it and did a ton of stuff that needed to be done but wasn't getting voted on in his spare time which btw is the only reason the game has save compatibility. The real issues with the code are all on the back end the very foundations the game was built on and all they really did for that was slap a bunch of bandaids on it hope for the best and call it a day.
TLDR: Yes they fixed up some of the code but it was all about making the game look and play better not making it more stable or easier work on.

he has to give something to patreons otherwise they will start to think twice before investing, same goes for batch of animations, its to reduce heat.

It's a fine wallpaper.
And at least we know that The Dev is not abandoned the game.

Does this mean not-mom will be updated with the tech update (no more 2 frame animations) or just some scene ?

God, I hope it's a full overhaul. It was always jarring to see her story shift from the new to old artwork as you play it. Hell, that peeping scene when she's on the bed has practically been untouched since, what, v.01?

I'm guessing it just means the wallpaper will be used in her story, maybe all of her art (except scenes) will get updated now that they're reposing everything anyways, that would make sense, don't know if this is confirmed tho.

It does make sense. That would be a lot of work.

That would be the best case, though I still kinda doubt she'll get all of her sprites replaced right now. But given that this handjob scene would be somewhere down the line in her actualy story... who knows.

It seems like we'll get some additional cut scenes (like Debbie and Diane will almost certainly a new introduction, as it seems) and it looks like they'll replace some old sprites, too.

Only one wallpaper!?
Even this new type of content is drying up

Presumably this just means that all current storylines which include lower quality art will be redrawn to a higher standard and released as a part of the quality of life update. I don’t think this was a part of the original pitch for the update but here we go… I’d rather see the changes done sooner rather than later but it has been two years in development…

Back when Main Story Part 1 was in development I saw on a stream him drawing her pregnant and that got me hoping she would get a revamp but nope.
