Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.6440] [Kompas Productions]

[kimjongew]

DC just annonced that we'll have a "trap option" because people don't seem to want a trap. Which means that Eve, Ronda and others are still on the table to be the trap but those who don't like that story will likely be able to have "her" as a girl, even though the story seems to be less good in that case.

He already drew Eve naked and she was all girl. I hope she ends up staying that way, because I'd rather not have one of the only two body types I like (Eve and Mia) having a poor update. We've got a town full of DD women, give one of them a big D as well.

In all honesty, I'd really like to see some super happy fun time with the librarian. I remember my first playthrough of this game (ver .11 or so), meeting her and being like hello there, and then nothing for like a year. ha

Well, he said we'll get two options in the trap's case. I'd guess you'll be able to choose at the start of your game if you want it or not. Depending on that she'll appear as girl or as trap in your game and the story will be slightly different. So given he's said that it could again be "everybody" except Mia and Roxxy. And at least to me it didn't sound like he was trolling because that was the first thing he said when he was asked what the changed because of popular demand.

finished the Roxxy arc, and now gotta ask...
am I the only one that read Clyde's (Cletus') dialogue in the voice of Larry the Cable Guy??
and if you hadn't ... you will now

While I am pro this option, it just seems like DC is gonna add more and more work to SS that extends how long it will take to finish the darn thing. I am not accusing him of milking shit, but am I crazy in thinking the scope of the game just keeps expanding in various ways? Multiple pregnancies, daycares, car stuff, buying houses, more "games", etc, on top of all the characters already in the game which are currently unfinished. I know he spoke of the trap long ago, but but at this point it almost seems more logical to simply drop the thing then try and add even more to the game when it's nowhere near close to being done and updates seemingly take quarters of the year to accomplish.

It's called feature bloat

This relates to a problem I had with the teachers though. Sure I got to fuck them, but I had to put a lot of work in for a paltry number for H scenes related to them and no connection to the MC. It's fine if they're just fuck buddies or whatever, but the game should reflect more how much they want to get pounded by the MC, like it did with Roxxy or stuff like that.

He needs to focus on 'single' character routes each update, because when he does, we get great shit like Roxxy

Well, he said Diane's update will be a little smaller and should be faster than Roxxy's. It's certainly true that he's going to need a lot of time to finish the game but I don't really see a problem with that right now. Patreon numbers look good, people like the story and the content, so there isn't really a reason to not bring more content as long as his patreons are going along. At least until now the release times correlate with the content of the update so it's not like he's slacking off.

In the end most of things he's implementing/planning now are meant to actually finish the stories of those characters who aren't finished at the moment.

Edit: He just said that 0.16.1 is likely to come within the next few hours.

Well crap, that likely means that if it's Eve, she'll get like one scene like Mia. Ah well, can't get everything in life lol

As to your more recent post, I don't think he really wants to continue indefinitely anyways. He's expressed that he wants to do another game and that he's already planning some stuff out. Problem is that the scope of the game just keeps getting out of hand it seems. Not that I'm complaining since I love the content he puts out.

Guys we are getting 1000 pages, wow

 

[gozer007]

As a longtime lurker of this forum (and player of the game, of course) I must thank the many fine folks who post all of the helpful tips, bugfixes and other valuable info for people to read. You all are awesome and vastly under appreciated! I have learned many things here, but the most important ones are...1) READ before asking stupid (aka redundant) questions! and 2) If you are patient you will be rewarded, either with answers or with (eventually) a bug-free version of the game. Cheers!

I just asked on stream for the bugfixed version. The answer I got was, "It's being worked on at the moment. It takes time to find the reason for a certain bug. Have patience" I think it will take a few more days, but it will come soon.

Update: DC says end of stream he will probably release the hotfix tonight. \o/

IIRC: She was originally supposed to be the cam girl in the game, hence the hidden camera in the side room of the library. Think that when Jenny was made a camgirl they scrapped that idea for her.
My money is on her eventually becoming the Trap everyone keeps speculating about.

That would be awesome.

When is the update whre all the bugs are gome?

 

[jak1165]

The bugs are annoying but Roxxys quest is bug free and that's what matters

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.

Well, DC always said that it's one of the schoolgirls, so we'll have to see if he changed his mind on that.

That would be awesome.

there still 2 other slots to connect your pc to,remember?the other camgirls could be anyone...

I decided to start a new game again to try and play storylines in a certain order to try and avoid bugs.I focused on the teachers first and finishing that storyline but it ended up "locking" a majority of storylines and key scenes wont trigger like the roxxy shooting mini game,mia getting tattoed,sister route and mom route lawn mower chore.

 

[markymark12]

So in love with this new update! Finally got to play it today and Roxxy's story is definitely well put together. This worth really worth the wait

well,Diane only interacts with Debbie(aside the MC,she doesnt get along well with Jenny as you can see on the dinner dialogue),so aside Annie's parents her possibilities of extra contents are few,unless DC use this update to try to make her more "sociable",but most of her content is already on the game which kinda justifies Diane update not being that big(same thing should be possible to happen on Jenny update)but we can only wait and see to how things will develop,since even being smaller than Roxxy's update Diane update will still put new dynamics on the game,which will be more trouble to the coders than to DC,but as i said before,we will need to wait and see....
