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

[Count Morado]

The sad part is so many people asked about the fucking incest patch that you can't even point them to the search function anymore cause you get 50 pages of results when you try...

If they set their search results to "most recent first" in their account preferences, their searches would be more effective and efficient. But that seems to be asking a lot.

Fair point, didn't even think of that.
My search is still set to relevance cause I'm only really using it for thread titles but I'll have to keep that in mind.

You know there's a dedicated functionality to search thread titles only regardless of sort order, right?

Obviously, but on default sorting you get lots of results with mods for the game, or fan threads, or "looking for games like X" before the actual game thread in my experience.

Let me get this straight. The dev spent their time making a new source code and it only has 1st school day, new locations, Debbie content and Jenny's content? Instead of using the time to add the locations into the already fine game? Waste of time if you ask me.

next update will be released 1 month after F95 gives it the abandoned tag again.

The previous pages didn't tell you as much?

It’s wild that DC hasn’t slapped him with a copyright infringement/reported this to Patreon yet.

Based on the current state of things, his fan-animations look like they are full of OCs. What's there to copyright?

porn "parodies" are protected.
if they were NOT protected this game would be shut down for using the likeness of various people without their permission.
also much of the porn industry would likewise get shutdown for copyright infringement.

They are not protected. That is the common misconception.

There is no such thing as "protection" against copyright infringement cases. There are affirmative defenses which can be made in a legal setting - but if an IP holder decides to make a claim of infringement, simply saying "its a porn parody" does not stop the action. It still requires legal decisions which a respondent would need to show that their work transforms the original in such a way that it does not infringe on the rights of the IP holder (parody, education, or similar possible defense). That requires legal counsel, discovery, depositions, and the like should the IP decide to take the respondent through the full steps should the respondent fail to cease and desist in their actions.

Most respondents cannot afford legal counsel and all the fees that go with defending their claims and typically cease their work when challenged by IP holders.

Im sure dildorog and Darkcookie have some sort of deal,is not like dildorog is costing DC money,the cultists are still paying for the eternal party of wallpapers and shitty updates.

 

[PayneToTheMax]

Didn't he actually do some animation work for previous builds of the game anyway?

That's basically as much of a go ahead anyone will ever get.

Yes.

> Anyone can sue you, even if they lose.

Protected does not mean "nobody can sue". it means "you will win the lawsuit".
Nobody dares to sue porn parodies thus far. because losing a case is costly. (as you can be held liable for the lawyer costs of the defendant)

Someone should really do their own version on this game and add the incest back, the artstyle of the faces is the only thing this dude has. someone just copy the art and make a new game, pls.

I guess that’s true kek.

(as you can be held liable for the lawyer costs of the defendant)

Again, a common misconception. It depends upon the jurisdiction. For example, in the USA each party is held responsible for their own case and attorney costs. If an IP holder wins a case, they can request in their claim for compensation of attorney fees and the like - or if it is determined by arbitration or mediation, it could be part of the agreement between the parties. A respondent must file a countersuit or subsequent action in order to attempt to receive funds for such compensation. As such, it would need for the respondent to show that the original claim by the IP holder was frivolous, or similar.

That would be something which is actionable for DC to claim IP infringement. DC has held at least one other developer accountable.
