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

Precisely this. I get that pregnancy is a kink for some people, but it's a really difficult thing to put in a game like this because you either show the consequences of it which means creating more content or you don't, and DC seems to have gone with the latter which actually turns out to be the worst option.

The fact that your kids just get sent off to daycare and are then forgotten about as you proceed to have more babies with both different women and the same women just takes this game to an even greater level of crazy. Personally, I would have preferred if only a select few women got pregnant and that these had very specific consequences that would be explored. For example, getting Jenny pregnant would expose your relationship with her causing some drama between the her, the MC, and their Mom. As this is not something she would have wanted, she could wrestle with keeping the baby and getting an abortion, then if she has the baby she wrestles with keeping it or putting it up for adoption. If in either scenario she keeps the baby, then the MC doesn't get to have sex with her anymore because she won't let him after getting her pregnant, but if she doesn't keep the baby, then her and the MC will have sex again but she'll be on birth control and he'll always have to wear a condom.

If the game had these sorts of storylines post-pregnancy then at least there would be some sort of consequences for the MC constantly nutting inside all these women instead of just tossing the kids into daycare and forgetting they exist. Other characters with consequential pregnancies could be Debbie, Diane, Mia, Ronda, Roxxy, and Crystal, and every other woman is either on the pill or can't have kids.

I like that DC is letting the player knock-up every girl and I'd honestly be miffed if that changed. I think it flows well with the tone of the game. He's working with what he has to satisfy a fetish people like and have asked for and I appreciate that. Though I get what people don't like about it, I still think its a good start to content that may get its own update down the pipeline.

I also don't think pregnancy requires a heavy story investment or changes to explain/expand its consequences since the game is set in a fixed amount of time and has a lighter tone. The goals of the game are to save up money for college, solve your dad's murder, and find a prom date. The consequence of pregnancy can and should be simple and based around the goals of the game.

would be fun if thats whats killed him. there is no big mafia conspiracy he died because roz pussy was too much to handle for his weak heart rip

I concur.

 

[Trapezio]

So wait... does she not use the Sybian anymore? Is there no scene for anal? None of those other toys in the adult store can be used? Is this really it!?

4 months and a half...

- Synbian scene: REMOVED

- Night scene in bed: REMOVED (atm)


Nonetheless, some people still praising them here - and reminding us - anytime - how ungrateful we are towards DC (aka The Man Who Never Fails).

Why is it telling me
I can't use saves from previous versions
When I am using the saves form the same version?
Talk about a major bug.

Exactly this. I made a similar comment in my review of the game where I think the appeal of pregnancy kink is good not just in knocking the women up, but seeing the consequences and impacts on relationships. Jenny being pregnant (and getting caught banging the MC by Debbie and Diane) could've created a lot of interesting storylines over the women figuring out if a harem is what they want, being mad at the MC, and dealing with the social/biological consequences of having kids.

Watching the family (and the other women of the MC's harem) talking about balancing their own lives/kids/having more kids with the MC is hot. Erasing the kids via daycare is not.

Could you elaborate on this more?
Specifically how being able to impregnate "every girl" flows well with the tone of the game.

*I realise it's optional, and even the fertilisation mini-game can be "cheated" one way or another to ensure "first time" impregnation or none at all.

I also don't think pregnancy requires a heavy story investment or changes to explain/expand its consequences since the game is set in a fixed amount of time and has a lighter tone. The goals of the game are to save up money for college, solve your dad's murder, and find a prom date. The consequence of pregnancy can and should be simple and based around the goals of the game.

I'd wholeheartedly agree with this part on its own, if the pregnancies didn't progress beyond a certain point and no children were born, but they do and sprogs do appear.
The game doesn't really have a time-limit for things to happen and be done. It's more sandbox with linear character stories/plotlines. The exception though is with Jenny so far, where we're given choices in how to handle some situations.

Yes, it does.
It's a bit odd at times due to the characters placing emphasis on the familial relations during conversations and during some sex scenes, but it does work.

 

[j4yj4m]

You wil miss the break-free scene of the camshow if Jenny is dominant. And as far as I see, there is no possibility to make her more submissive once her story is complete.

Yes, but it's just a variant of a scene that exists for everybody. Sure, there's a small difference but it's not like one would miss a full final scene like with Mia/Helen or Mrs. Johnson/June. I think that's actually a pretty fair compromise and he should indeed make quite a few more of those. First it actually moves the game a bit closer to be the Dating Sim/VN it claims to be and secondly it's little work for quite a bit of additional playtime. During the last two years DC pretty much got rid of those "cheap" means to increase content but it may indeed not be the worst idea to increase the replay value for those who like it.

Is there any kind of console (or other kind of) cheat that would allow me to unlock all scenes in the entire cookie jar?

 

[Super Galactus]

Just what i though,having children really should affect their relationship instead of keep pretending the child never exist,for me pregnancies make the connection that the girls belong to MC after he impregnated them,whch is any mean they willing to raise the baby just for MC as they love him so much..After Jenny update,the pregnancies become a joke..Sister still a bitch even after she get impregnated by MC,only see him as brother,and sex friend..Sadly for us,Diane and Jenny story will stay like this,

Depends. I know some people that just get off on the idea of knocking up but not thw pregnancy in itself.

Asset reworks

Starting in 0.18.5, we are going to get rid of some art assets of the game, in an effort to make the game translatable, as well as to lighten the workload (ever so slightly) on DC, and make the game's size smaller. So, in 0.18.5, Location unlock popups will be done in code, instead of having dedicated art assets, and items should follow through quite quickly.
As soon as renpy 7.2 is stable enough, and doesn't cause issues with android builds, we will move to that new version of the engine, which will provide a new image manipulator object : im.Blur(). This will allow use to create blurred assets dynamically, instead of having dedicated assets, all in an effort to once again lighten the workload on DC, and making the game smaller. We take pride in having an optimized game, given that so many developpers out there don't take the time to address these issues.

Lmao. More delays and excuses ahead. Why Is it so hard to do that after the game is finished? Most of the players don't care about this and are STARVING for new content, But you need to milk that sweet patron tit don't you?

Talk about a major bug.

I don't think that's a bug. Consider it an announcement that always appears like a reminder. It's easier to code it to always be there rather than look for game saves.

 

[NotYourBiznes]

How do I unlock the scene where Diane is being milked and fucked at the same time?

 

[Trogdor The Burninator]

Last time i played this game was 2 years ego. I downloaded the latest version and i'm incredibly disappointed!
The 3 gigaenormus complains about the development of this game are:

1) USELESS PREGNACY: Why? i ask... if the devolopers of the game are not in this kind of fetish why adding it? If you get your sister or your aunt pregnant the game pause the story for that character. No h-scene, no further development of the story, u cannot even see your sister naked during this time. And the lamest thing is during the pregnancy they act as it is a very important issue even after the birth with the newborn in theyr arms it look like a new development, but after a couple of days the baby disappear and no one talks about it again... just lazy writing.

2)THE ART IS GETTING WORSE: I said it. It's look like all the characters are addicted to some kind of "aging drugs", some expressions are ugly and even the art in general look less "clean" and more "opaque".

3)FAKE REWORKS: Except for the Mother, the reworks for the sister ad the aunt are just... english isn't my language so i cannot come with a better word... just... just BULLSHIT (there it is). They added little to nothing to the story, no new interaction, 1 or 2 new h-scene, longer paths to arrive at same resoults and 1, just 1, interaction between them (mother-aunt). Worst of all they reworked the allready existing h-scene or deleted some of them. We all love quality in our fap sessions, but even more quantity.

In the end i think the developers take too much time to uptade way too little... they are buying time.
And judging by the amounts of Patreon they have, theyr time cost a shit ton of money!

Sorry for the long post and the broken inglisc.

 

[Dank Quixote]

All of my quests with the teachers are stuck. I talk to Miss Ross and she asks me to get magazines. The quest doesn't progress, when I talk to her she gives me the task over and over. I talk to Miss Dewitt and she says I have to find other students for the talent show. Same thing here. The quest doesn't update and when I talk to her she gives me the same conversation/task again. I talk to Miss Bissette after school to inform her that Roxxy will take the exam. The next day there is no exam she just tells me to talk to her after school and I get the same conversation again.

Annoying and gamebreaking


Edit: It's worse. Apparently Diane's quest is stuck now too. I'm beginning to think that everything is stuck.

Edit 2: Weird bug. It was not possible to make any progress on any save. Restarting the game fixed it.

She does take a giant butt plug during her second cam show, which was far better than watching her sit on a double dildo vibrator when you saw nothing.

18.5 was announced before 18 actually came out.

 

[j4yj4m]

DC just confirmed that the bed scene will be back (as one would expect after playing the update). A good example to take everything he says on stream with a grain of salt for one reason or the other. Then again, they certainly changed the context a lot so the argument that was made is still valid.

Any idea what the other 2 could be? Jenny's diary mentions the beach but I have no clue what the third option could be, now that we already had that cinema scene.
