Its not really an engine "update" its more a restructuring of the entire code base. The code DC wrote before the "update" was most likely a big pile of spaghetti code. Spaghetti code is exactly what your imagining a huge fuckin mess and it gets really hard to deal with it the bigger the project gets.

The reason its taking so long is really up in the air at this point. From my experience re structuring the whole code base is a pain in the ass and can take quite a while.

Think about it like building a house. You need to have a blueprint of what your making, you need to know what material your going to need, how much of it, where to find it and how to get it where it needs to be. Your gonna need clean the lot and compact the ground, put in a foundation and all that. What DC did before was just grab all he could an through it together. Since hes an artist it was basically a really good looking house with a shitty infrastructure.
I think your analogy would be a lot better if this was actually an in-depth or complex game. Renpy is ridiculously easy to use, and StS is basically a visual novel with some map screens and a couple minigames. People definitely can (and do) make some impressive things with Renpy, but this isn't one of them. Any halfway decent programmer could remake StS in its entirety in like 2 months tops, and that would be starting from scratch.

I think that DC and/or his team are just talking about this tech update and restructuring as another way to essentially stall out having to make actually meaningful progression to the game, but I also think a lot of people here know that already as well.

Source: I've made a game in Renpy that was similar to this kind of sandbox. It's really not hard.

Friend, taking into account your comment and that it has nothing to do with the other, I have also always liked or been fascinated by the idea of creating a game or visual novel but to be honest I am average when it comes to computers and zero in programming but I do long to one day make a game (not necessarily porn, but if I would do it too there is no problem with that) anyway, as you say you have already made one, do you think or could you tell me the bases to be able to make my own content or where I can see or guide me to do it or maybe it is not for people like me ??? I appreciate your attention brother.

I don't get it. This game have so much advantage, game play and fine arts, and the time. Even the story is simple yet intriguing.
One day it just stop, like suspended, no clear statement or whatsoever from the devs ???
They could have just give the game a conclusion, or The end of ep 1 .... Why remake ? why rework ?

Keep getting stuck where the cop is parked outside of the house and cant get back in or do anything story wise really. Am I missing something?

Is this the point in the story where you're encouraged to go out and explore? If so, you can fast forward the time and head back inside. I remember this being in the last update and tbh, I didn't understand it either.

Can someone please explain it to me? Should I stay on the pre Tech Update or download the new version as people mentioning content being removed?

I waited for 2 months for nothing, I'm sorry to say, but this game was the best game before the tech update, but now he's just milking people for money, 2 years for the tech update, and now he doesn't even have the courage to let it go in one go and move on to update the rest of the characters, because of this I don't support him anymore,

the funny part is that he is probably not even drawing these scenes anymore.
What's not funny is people spreading missinformations like you. He streams multiple times per week and he draws in them.
You can be disappointed because of him but spreading Bullshit is a asshole move.

the summertime saga Lora model from Civitai (which can be used by anyone) can prompt Summertime Saga images that look exactly like dookie's artstyle.
No, Ai Images are soulless Pictures and ugly.
