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

[vks017]

No, it is assumed that it is read. It has only been shown that account created by the developer logs in at regular intervals (and has done so for the 6 years the account has existed - but almost never interacts in any thread). There is no listing of activity ("Last Seen: XXX minutes/days/whatever ago viewing XYZ thread"). It may be a slight difference - but it is a very distinct one.

You are right in the point you are making. We can do no more than assume for the dev.

I was actually talking about Patron subscribers, a few have commented here in the past, with them its more than an assumption

Sorry for the confusion. When I read your first post - the way your subject and object nouns were ordered and the structure of the sentences, I was under the impression you were referring back to the dev about who was reading what.

Of course there are patreons which interact here... and share info here (Username7 and Hero1, just to name a couple). However, even then, if you look at the known patreons (not simply just ones who say they currently subscribe in their post(s) - but have shown through sharing subscriber-only information) - those particular patreons have not been as anxious nor accusatory as what we have seen from others in this thread. And, many times, they have attempted to diffuse the animosity in the thread.

In fact, they have shown, time and again, patience, understanding, and resolution to let DC do what DC do. So, to think that those who do so would then take that information back to the discord/patreon and pass along the complaints is a bit of a stretch of consideration without some support. Otherwise, it is, again, making an assumption based upon a preconceived notion of importance. There may be - but the dots connecting A to B are a bit fuzzy at this time.

ERICA, our great best (sex) friend! I wish the game had such scenes!

Time to do some forbidden painful sex fantasies.

Fat ERIK, your chubby ass is mine... AGAIN!

: D

You may be in luck... perhaps. Possibly. One day. Roll of the die.

There's something incredibly funny about him drawing Judith, but they're discussing potential gay sex

Are they still on-track for the 2nd Tech Update release at the end of this month? Whether or not this cadence can be established, never mind kept-to, will be the first big test of the new codebase structure

Supposed to be the end of July, DC even made mention of such at least twice in a Picarto stream I checked about a week and a half ago (once at

Oh, that's really nice and convenient.
The 10 year old game that never finished, rebooted so they can continue with the shittery.

I mean, why not? Geseeki's still pulling in numbers with his clone.

You two, pack it in. This fighting will make the mods lock the thread.

I see this as a win. Keep fightin' bois.
You have a hill to die on.
I'm sure it matters to someone.

This is not a court of law where it needs to be proved beyond reasonable doubt. There is logic that the complaints and impending tag might have had an effect. That's good enough for me at least. If this thread only had happy campers the probability would be higher that the game would stay in indefinite limbo.

8 years and still not finished. Damn I'm staying away from this one.

 

[thhawk1]

My only complaint is when I play the tech update it crashes every time Aunt it has a scene. You need to add the Aunt this game doesn't work without her.

That would be a mistake. You can play the pre-tech stable version and have a fine time of it if you pretend it's complete already. Your preferred girl might not have much content but there will be plenty of shit to do.

Funny thing is if you ignore the milking accusations and the latest debacle I think this game would be universally hailed as one of the best porn games of all time. IMO the dev has made a mind boggling blunder.

One of the reasons "we" are so "collectively" annoyed IS because this was such a great game with such potential. Had it always been shit, no onw would care

Breh, this was the OG milking game, the OG flag search sleep-spam game, the OG time waster on Ren'py.
This one spawned so many like it once people realised it was successful that I personally consider it a cancer.

But that's just my opinion of course. If someone disagrees with me they're free to.
I promise I won't post a 300 page dissertation about it.

Not implying beyond a reasonable doubt. But it doesn't even meet common sense. What your indications does meet is a world view where the perceiver feels like a victim and that there is a conspiracy in many things... Or at the minimum a connfederacy. And that is tinfoil worthy.

Like 90% of that “animosity” comes from you though. Every time I pop in here all I see are your passive aggressive walls of text.

bullshit. How's that for passive aggressive?

I think mods have just completely given up on this thread, tbh.

I think it's fair that you feel that way about it. But most of your ire appears directed at the dev and others that wanted to copy him. Taken in a vacuum at face value the game itself is way better than most porn games. Good artwork, decent story with no translation issues, functional mini games that don't feel tacked on or out of place. In a niche market that is flooded with poorly written kinetic novels masquerading as games that's pretty significant. In my opinion anyway. Which is why the whole milking thing confuses the fuck out of me. Surely finishing the game would propel DC into a lucrative career where their next project, whatever it may be, would potentially be an even bigger success.

My ire is directed at the progenitor of a cancerous bad practice, but sure.
I wish DC well, this transition will go smoothly and efficiently, and not have any hitches.
It'll all be worth it in the end too, and he'll start lots more, and finish them, yes.

Many have had problems with v0.20.16 and JoiPlay. Your best bet is to play the APK on Android, not a Win version.
