Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.6705] [Kompas Productions]

[OmegaZero21]

Read my post again : he doesn't care about the $, so why would he charge 20$+ for a free game you can get everywhere else ? Aside the braindead required, it makes no sense at all. And, again in my post, IF he ever does it (like when the game is finished), it won't be anywhere before ~10 years. But then it'd still be free everywhere else, so no reason to put it on Steam.

Other games that double/triple dip income can do whatever they want, doesn't need to make sense too

Ya do realize there's free games on steam as well so that whole point is MOOT.

You could always ask the developer directly Monday through Friday when he is streaming on Picarto. This would answer your question and you would get it straight from the source, rather than the hearsay and conjecture of anyone on this site.

Or if you don't want to go ask directly, use the search box for "steam" and find that your question has already been answered quite a few times in here (shocking! almost 7000 posts and a few of them are repeats?! almost as if that was what the search option was made for /sarc ) -- seems j4yj4m has had the most consistent rsponses:

For those who don't want to reread all of these posts.
As far as I recall it, DC doesn't want to "sell" the game (so we'd be talking about a free release) and he certainly doesn't want any additional work and/or interference by steam. Having Patreon setting limits is bad enough...

So it's not like DC seems to be against it per se, he just doesn't seem to bother.

Then again, the added reach would very likely benefit the game finincially in the mid- to long run...

Snip

His mentality souds similar to Dwarf Fortress devs

Honestly wouldn't be any interference by Steam Patreon is most likely the ones to have the most interference.

Dude, you can let it go. It's not happening, even if it makes no sense (to you)

I remade a lot of the in game sprites using Stable Diffusion. Is this something anyone else would be interested in seeing released as a full mod?

It was not the easiest thing because of the layered image system the game uses where images are stitched together, but i think the end result is alright.

Man, it looks incredible, but the alpha blending is indeed bad, but its easy to fix it.
They look like characters from porn manhwas... its very good.

why would he want to sell the game on steam when he is making 60K a month doing nothing. if tried to sell it on steam they would want him to finish the game or they would take it down. steam doesn't like milkers on their platform.

Could go down the route of Telltale games? Release episodes to really milk the consumers! (please don't do this)

Speculation is pointless, nothing is going to change. He will still make a boat load of money, even if it is trending downwards. Obviously, this change hasn't seemed to affect his choices; he hasn't added staff, changed his distribution/funding scheme, or his choice to keep adding on to the modernization update. He is not going to work ahead on Rhona, albeit some art. You can wring your hands all you want, it isn't going to change. Let me repeat, not going to change.

Edit: This isn't so much a reply to the last comment as to being a general reply to all you starry-eyed dreamers out there. Just to clarify.

7 Days to Die has been in EA for nearly a decade now. I don't think Steam gives a shit if you finish your game.

its true that they are going to rewrite helen and mia route so u can get both ?

i really hope they do; it would be nice to have both and not choose between them.

Ish, they will remake her route in 3+ years when she wins a poll. And the "choice" will either get nuked or let you get both in the same run. But it's pretty far off and the split path debate isn't ending soon, so anything goes till then

 

[Monroe88]

just out of curiosity, are there any plans for the MC to romance any of the male characters.

Only Kevin so far. You could argue about Erik's 3some being semi-gay, but that's meh at best, and possibly removed once he gets his remake

 

[j4yj4m]

Plans can always change, but as far as I recall, they don't want MC to be locked of the prom by these choices.

As there's Yumi connected to their story, too, you'd probably get one branch where it's mainly about Helen, the nun and a scene or so for Mia (as some kind of naughty friends with benefits end or so) and one where Harold gets back with Helen and as such MC gets together with Mia and there's the possibility to romance Yumi.

But we'll only know once they actually release it. DC tends to change his mind on these things at times.

I know you didn't ask, but there will be people who assume that "get both" means the possibility of threesome/groupsex with Helen and Mia at the same time. They should remember that for as long as Summertime Saga is promoted on Patreon and Patreon's Community Guidelines nixes incest, mother and daughter characters won't be together in sex scenes.

[GonFreecss405]

Is their more planned content or is the majority of it done? Ive played through every route and im wondering if we will get new scenes and quests, new characters and new story quests
