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

[kimjongew]

Where did you get the 56k from? I've ever only read 43k (14k patreons) and scamming should be almost impossible since he started charing up front.

9,865 patrons x $1= $9,865, 5,171 patrons x $5= $25,855, 1,061 patrons x $10= $10,610, 512 patrons x $20= $10,240. The breakdown is listed under the reward tiers.

9865+25855+10610+10240= $56,570, while overview shows $43,139. That's a $13,431 or 23.7% difference or $161,172 a year.

I'm not accusing DC of anything, but wondering if Patreon really skims that much off of their content creators. I mean, that's more than a doctorate makes in a year. Imagine if that $161,172 isn't going to DC or the game development?

Is cheat mode not working properly for anyone else? I get the money but can't skip minigames.

I can skip minigames to this Version.

it happens sometimes,its some bullshit patreon does from time to time,happened the same with gabe last year,during almost 2 months,she was losing something beetween 3 to 8 k of money becuz of that

It's certainly true that he has other projects in mind but I still can't really see him to stop working on SS as long as it isn't finished and as long as people support it sufficiently.

Else I'm not really sure if the scope got that much bigger than it was a year ago, it's just getting more apparent now. One can of course argue that he always wanted too much but on the other hand there aren't that many characters which he really should have left out. Maybe June, the Latinas, Cpt Terry, Roz, one or two teachers, Missy or Becca and some other minor characters but that's not really enough to save a lot of time - likely a couple of months at best.

If it takes a month a piece for each one of those characters, that's 7 months alone, not to mention implementing pregnancies, which was said to be for nearly all the women in the game, and finishing the main story. That sounds like it's probably gonna take more than a couple of months given what we've seen so far.

He needs to get that fixed then. I'd be pissed if I were DC or his patrons. That's a lot of money that could go towards the game, more developers or even his kids. That's enough to put both his kids through college when they grow up.

Edit: I sent him a PM with the breakdown and mentioned it might be an error. Hope it's not and he isn't getting royally screwed.

Ok we know its buggy we get it.. it usually is right on the release.. you complain when you wait for it you complain after its out is there no pleasing some of you?

is the roxy story worth all that time.. im sure some will say yes and some no.. my opinion is at least its complete and alot of content...the whole school thing to me is broken now.. the teachers dont interact well with each other and the story is jumbled...opinion here so leave it be... the interactions with debbie are kind of a back story now, the loss of relationship has a lot to do with it, same for jenny.. just doesnt fit anymore now that they are not related.. now when i say doesnt fit im not talking she inst worth doing im saying the story doesnt fit...

after mc kicks dexters ass dialogue still reflects deXter thinks hes the badASS.. when in fact hes now the mc's bitch

eve is ok
judith is ok
id like anna developed.. the yoga thing could be cool
nun needs to be done
redo mia and her mom... story and sex are just meh...

and for the love of god remove aqua.. was nice for halloween but kinda lame the rest of the year

just my thoughts random as they are

Tatiana is a cosplayer & YT personality when she isn't working at the hobby store in the mall.

Does the real person know about this game? I'm not sure it would be a good idea to have a real person - using their (animated) likeness and actual YT channel name - featured in a porn game without their consent. A passing mention is one thing, but I'm honestly kinda surprised that Patreon hasn't kiboshed that.

 

[mattius77]

My preferred order (based on criteria important to me and me alone) would be: Jane (librarian), Anna, Grace, Yumi, Iwanka, Sara, Micoe (nurse). Then give each existing conquest one new h-scene, and call it a day.

Then do a spin-off game where all you do is plow Helen and Mrs J.

 

[kimjongew]

Yeah so according to their site: They take 35 cents on the pledge in addition to the 2.9% fee. That nowhere adds up to the discrepancy which means he's getting massively screwed I think.

 

[Ungawa]

Its also possible they are just doing the meth. If it was in his pocket, the whole scene also makes sense.

Not really. You go and check it out and they're actually looking at the cash.

Then again Roxxy knows a LOT about what's going down in the trailer park...

I'm beginning to call shenanigans on this being buggy, but I believe there's a natural flow to the story if you do the teachers first, then students (Roxxy for now), then Diane, then Jenny and Debbie.

For teachers, the longest is Okita so start there and you'll get to the others in a very similar fashion. For Roxxy, her story makes sense to merge with Bissette and combine the two while Dewitt seems to be the place that Eve is going to get more content based around her singing.

I won't say much on Jenny since that's how I feel on it similarly, but at least with this, you can see how the stories fit together.

I'd really like if they did a monster town or something for Aqua just to give her more to do. As it stands, she's just... There...

To be perfectly honest, I'd completely forgotten that character is meant to be based off a real person.
No idea if they're aware of their appearance in the game or not, but I suppose at this point it would fall into that legal grey area of is consent actually needed or is the in-game character just a parody of the real person? If it's the latter, there would be a strong legal argument for not really needing to get consent since the person being parodied is a public figure.

I think they also (recently?) started charging creators for the credit card processing fees.

This isn't really parody, though, so I don't think fair use applies.

Fair use is a judicial defense. Likeness on a Z-list celebrity really doesn't apply similar to how GTA being sued by Lindsay Lohan is ridiculous and laughed out of court.

 

[lcp]

There isn't a notification for the sister's webcam and her diary is is not available even though I'm somewhat far into the game. Does anyone know if this is a bug? I used the incest patch.

Its happening later than in previous versions. Just keep on going with debby. I don't know how well the incest patch is working though.

 

[Snakebitten531]

Im at the car dealership trying to get the moms car repaired and the game keeps crashing after i convince the chick there, even tried loadin my save with an unmodded version (no incest) and it still did the same thing

 

[jak1165]

Mayor Rump is a parody I'm pretty sure.

Fair use and all that

 

[skywilson]

The game is rolling back. Like i already get the password for okitas room and after the 3rd task she will ask for it again. Others are also like that debbie still want to buy a fish but that event is finished already.

Cap'n Terry does NOT get the respect he deserves. God-tier wingman.
