Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5605] [Kompas Productions]

[D2K]

Don't care about the abandoned tag because it changes nothing, but the fact right after that dropped some people have asap started to shit on a (bad) coder for a 3+X(?) years delay as only reason is just amusing. Some users who code for a living already posted multiple times here they could have literally made everything from scratch. It doesn't fix the fact DC has 0 management skills and his actual coder/coders have no idea about their own job.

they tried to explain why the coding was taking so long by pointing to 10000+ images, like placeholders didn't exist. on top of having an existing working model showing you how things were intended to look and flow. they had many advantages to recreate/refactor the code, but they deemed 3 years to do it too little, when it took just about that much to even get it to the original state.

Yessssss abandoned
Well
Where is the update?

 

[zwere]

Summertime Saga probably has more shit in than a game of this engine should have. Like mini games

A pathetic excuse for minigames*
They are so bad, even when they're not completely broken, that the game would be better off without em.

I won't defend his dog shit project management. He ignored the tech debt until it blew up in his face, He sat back and paid people to do work without ever checking to see if they were doing it in a way that wouldn't blow up in his face. He made this bed now he must lie in it.

a bed made out of dollar bills. he had no incentive to check what the coder was doing as long as the money came in and i doubt he's going to take any damage from it. i think someone said STS made more money during the tech update phase then it did while he was doing updates. it's just a huge flaw with the patreon system.

still the dude has some nerve to call his patreons impatient on stream

Oh, I agree. Never was a big fan. Or the stats for that matter. The latter reminded me too much of the old dating sim flash games.

Sandbox is also eh in my book. If you want to make a sandbox game use another engine. Ren'py is more for heading from scene to scene with a couple of variables. You know, the stuff EvaKiss makes.

Well, he hasn't beaten the master yet. Crowchild(HTH2) is still milking his patreons since like 15 years(2008-today). It could be a similar case on the long way.

Where's that fucking flower guy shilling the game like crazy on this thread now?

"Ermm actually the abandoned tag do not matter for DC, it won't impact him in any way "

Few hours before getting the tag we got an announcement from DC himself talking about some testing and release.

Who's laughing now?

Well, technically it's just part of DC's monthly summary, which is usually released at the end of the month. I'm not saying this means anything, but it seems like some people seem to get a bit ahead of themselves... in case some will be disappointed when nothing changes afterwards.

do a 360 and walk away.

If they do a 360 they’ll just spin in place and continue to walk forward . You mean do a 180 if you want someone to turn around and leave .

If you have been to the recent streams, DC's discord and Patreon posts (where DC actually interacts) they were complaining more than usual lately and IMO that is the main reason why DC is putting another pre-tech update. He could care less about this pirate site, he has interacted here no more than 10 times in all of the thread's existence.

If you actually think he is putting another pre-tech update just so this thread gets the "abandoned" tag removed please let me get some of what you're smoking.

I'm right here.

DC doesn't care about an abandoned flag.

If he did, he would have dropped something BEFORE it got slapped on the thread...

Like j4yj4m mentioned the other day, all he had to do was add one new scene to he current game anytime in the past 18 months to avoid the flag. An Easter special, or anything, like he had done with the 7 pre-tech updated until Oct 31. It didn't even need to be more than a few still images and it would have sufficed.

That ya all think you changed anything continues to show how cloudyheaded some of ya all are.

He's been putting out reports at the end of the month for the past year.

DC don't give a shit about this site . He will start working when his money flow starts to dry up . Unfortunately i don't see that happening any time soon. Just proves that the World is not a fair place. People with disposable income (who actually has the funds to support a scammer on monthly basis) are so stupid.

and him releasing the announcement of a partial tech update on THE SAME EXACT DAY the game qualifies for the abandoned tag is a complete coincidence right? everything is right there infront of you and yet you still choose to cope.

Why do it NOW after the tag was put in place instead of anytime in the past 18 months to avoid the tag? He is doing it for the constant complains in Discord, Patreon and Picarto.

DC could've literally put a single scene or an easter special in the last 18 months in order to avoid the tag here. He doesn't care, he never interacts here.

The game has enough traction and fame all around the internet that he doesn't need F95 anymore, it's the biggest VN Porn Game in the entire internet, if you search for any adult VN game it will take you less than 2 minutes to find Summertime Saga, there's SS videos in PH with millions of views.

 

[googletrad]

Will DC announce a pre-update to the pre-tech update?

he didn't care for the complaints enough to release anything 17,16,15 or 14 months in? he only started to care enough to announce anything exactly 18 months in?

"DARKCOOKIE DOENST CARE ABOUT F95,THE PATREONS ARE SUPER ANGRY ABOUT HIS SHADY TACTICS SO HE HAS TO RELEASE CONTENT"
I fucking love this is the actual defense for this whole shitshow
Just admit he cares about F95,it makes him look better

Dude hasn't commented here since 3 years ago, I don't defend him, he is incompetent and did not estimate nor handled the tech update how it should have been handled.

If you really think he cares more about the complains on a Pirate Site where 95% of people complaining don't give him any kind of revenue instead of the thousands of patreons, Discord members and Picarto viewers where he actually interacts and stays you are coping.

I am not defending him, where did you see this as a defense? All I'm saying is that the tag changes nothing in DC's mind nor has anything to do with the yet another pre-update to be released.

If you'd like to stay in Cloud 9 and think that DC is scrambling through his PC and putting out a pre-tech update because of a tag here, please go ahead and think that.

It's just damage control, it really is not hard to see or understand.

Also this site, as many mentioned, is the hub to find adult games. You're foolish if you think it has no impact what so ever on his earnings, this is not a small indie website.
