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

[dark0s]

I saw this game get updated and decided to check out the changelog out of curiosity. I laughed out loud. Let me write it how I read it in my mind:
"Hey guys, here's the update you've been waiting for. That's right, we have developed new source code for a game that absolutely did not require us doing so. Still, it's been such a gargantuan task that we HAD TO TAKE OUT 95% OF THE GAME OUT OF THE GAME. That's right. But don't worry, we (pinky) promise we will release PARTS OF THE GAME THAT ALREADY WERE PART OF THE GAME every 2 FUCKING MONTHS. Maybe. Please sub to my patreon because, well, aren't we just doing the swellest of jobs over here?"

I legit couldn't stop laughing for a full minute. Whatever this tech update was supposed to be, I could have never imagined for it to be so fucking comedic. Unreal.

Nail in the coffin? This mo********ker been dead and molested for 2 years.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen. Let the poor fu**er rest.

anyone with a functional frontal lobe (50% of the people on this website) would've seen that this is another "never-ever" about two years ago. The real joke of it all are the pay piggies that shilled out MILLIONS for this game, only to get this in return. Surely that patreon money is just coming from people who forgot to unsubscribe right? Right?

This thread needs mod review *badly*.

Is version 21 good? No. It's buggy, poorly laid (and thought) out and needed more time in the oven before public release which is damning in and of itself.

If you have the pre-tech release/s should you play the latest up date? No. It's lacking in scenes and the scenes that are here are largely the same in quality as the ones you've already played (and don't have things like x-ray, although there are some small Quality of Life updates such as if you've "spun the wheel and won" you won't "spin the wheel again").

Does darkcookies care about f95? No. Why would they? This is, at the end of the day, a piracy forum. Don't like it, tell someone who cares.

We don't need 1500+ pages of whinging about how DC is "milking" their community. It doesn't serve any purpose. It's just keeping this thread active at a time when, frankly, an inactive page is going to show *far more* than an active cesspool.
Let the people who are going to go dumpster diving go dumpster diving and get help with their hepatitis infection from previous dumpster divers.

I PATCH 20.0.12 break the trashgame
Oddly enough,kompas prod looks a lot like Aorta from the secret reloaded who does remake after remake of the same things over and over again, and the secret is still secret

 

[rspkers]

The fact that this guy made millions of dollars off coomers huffing on copium is amazing. Millions of dollars. Let that sink in. You all deserve it for giving him money this late into the scam. It's like people who form parasocial relationships with their onlyfans porn addiction and think the girl they give thousands of dollars to is somehow their girlfriend. Except instead of a woman, it's some dude drawing 2D tiddies and drip feeding them to you while he sits on his yacht. Even now there are still people defending this guy, hoping that someday they'll get their content. Lmao. Unbelievable that he still has as many patreons as he does. I am so fucking jealous of this con artist.

Some forgot most likely. But others you swear the sun sines and sets in this devs ass, dunno why. If they have hope beyond hope, this torpedoed ship will again set sail. More power to them, it ain't my money.

 

[snapfizz]

Apparently, the new engine drop or whatever the fk he's doing. Only took 90% of what was already in the game out. So tizzies are in abundance.

Oh my bad, I forgot. Pinky promise every 2 months or whenever you'll be updated on supposed progress. Sweet deal eh?

there hasnt been a real update in like 2 years. now theyre promising content drops every 2 months and youre mad?

I ain't mad. Because I ain't payin. I'm here for the show and color commentary.

 

[leo_grouch]

Imagine if any of the sheepreons have actually supported DC for eight years only to have this at the end of the eighth. Paying for that time, then for it to actually go backwards after such a long milking, and then being told you have to wait another year to go back to the point the game was 3 years ago with pretty much nothing new as to story, truly the definition of gullible.

I might be able to understand it all if it were a better game but... Summertime Saga? Just cause it was huge once doesn't make it worth $40,000 a month now.

 

[Ataman87]

I wonder where is flowerboy to defend DC

That just makes me think of the "weekly updates" from WVM.

I'm here only to read the thread ^^

Even a shorter game like Last Hope was more engaging. Monochrome Fantasy is a a fun and good RPG. I bought them on Steam and I'm positive neither wasn't no 40,000 a month for years to make.

We don't need 1500+ pages of whinging about how DC is "milking" their community. It doesn't serve any purpose.

Yes, yes we do. First of all, this is a forum. First post is the topic, all the rest is discussion related to it. If the topic happens to be such that it generates 1500+ pages of whining, then so be it. Moderation is needed when people start whining about other things.

Secondly, even though you label this as a piracy forum, occasionally people see something they like so much that they really do want to support it financially. I myself try to avoid spending money beforehand, but I do buy finished products. If those 1500+ (not sure where you got that number, but it sounds great) pages of whining can keep even one person from throwing any money into this dumpster fire, then those pages are sorely needed.

 

[Reiyayru]

To be fair, it's not new content but all the content they removed in this update being put back in after it's been updated in the new engine.

 

[AnnoyedMexican]

My sides are in orbit, I saw the game show up in the update feed earlier and thought it was troll... but this release is for real an official thing.

DC has managed to outdo Star Citizen, at least they have multiple parts of the "game" going nowhere.

Since the tech update was announced I could have learned to code and redo every artwork in the game in my artstyle (I avg 8-ish hours per artwork) and would have gotten as far as this demo is and I don't even know a thing about Ren'py

 

[DoubleCheekedUp]

finally, a fucking update

 

[\\_Tremolo_//]

Tech update... Well never mind, you still died dude, at least for me
