I know you can't use old save and that people are a little bit slow understanding that, but how do you deal with it? playing the game all over again? waiting for somebody else's save?

I kinda find enjoyment in playing a full game. But I have LOOOOONG breaks on patches. For example, before U15, I hadn't played the teachers or anything since U13 or U12. Longer wait, but it's worth it to play this way while checking out other games.

This right here. I find the updates are just big enough that I cna play the game from the beginning again. I would suggest saving replays for each update, especially choosing different routes (as there are a few multi-routes for some characters). There are also a LOT of games on this site and while not all are the same quality or length as this game there should be some to distract from the wait. The other option is to go exploring the internet, there is no way you have found every piece of art/story/game for your fetish.

You only need to play game single time to unlock everything. Branching of the routes is short and happens at the end of each one. i.e with yoga mom route after you make choice there is like 5 minutes of gameplay left afterwards. Also you can make tidy saves as you play.

I've got all saves from 0.11 up to now.

 

[seraphimd2]

Well,after waiting years for Legend of Queen Opala 2 conclusion,and waiting for Legend of Queen Opala Origin now,i'm kinda used to the wait by now,althought i admit that update 0.15 from Summertime Saga really made me lose my patience more than once(at least 0.16 is going way smoother)

7. Will my save files carry over to the next update?
This is the most asked question and the answer is no, it cannot. Unfortunately the Renpy engine deals very poorly with handling old save files in new versions of our game. A lot of things get changed each update and it conflicts with the savefile information. It is the reason why we added a cheat mode option when starting a new game and we are sorry you have to start from scratch each new update. If you want, you can wait 2 or 3 updates before testing the game again and not have to go through the beginning each time .What ballshart there are a lot of renpy game out there that save work ok what a ripof he get 38 500 a mouth what a fuckhead

You obviously don't understand how in-game variables work in relation to the game. The reason other games have save games that work is because they work in a linear fashion, whereas SS doesn't do linear updates, which causes huge problems with the in-game variables.

 

[Erudito]

I'm not sure if anyone shares my sentiment, but i am the kind of guy who doesn't mind playing from the beginning after every update. I just imagine it's my first time playing it.

Yes, i'm an absolute mad lad.

I used to not mind, but after a while it has gotten a little much. I used the Control key liberally with the teachers update.

I need to check up on LoQO:O and see what the status is on it. I haven't looked in nearly two years when the game ended with

I think I got tired of checking up on it when all that was being talked about was paying for cosplay actresses and licensing resin figures. Pulled my pledge to it after she started wasting money on that, rather than the game.

Well,better you wait a little more than,she just ended the 2nd spire arc and is deciding over the rescue of teen farah or the rescue of opala(i'm kinda happy with the attention she is giving to to Mu'Tiki lately,since DC just leaves Judith route collecting dust in some dark corner on his mind),in story content game is finnaly getting in pace again(althought it could be better),returning to Summertime Saga,at least now DC returned to a decent pace,hope next patch will not take too long,but will wait to see what's new in first hand...

This man must be stopped!

Same boat here, though I do skip every other major rev.

 

[Infinite9]

Dont act like you actualy read everything after you just played one time then try again for new updates. Stop crying about nerfing incest just pretend they are like before...

 

[Alcesto]

I have bad feeling about this project. I really liked it at start, fresh game, fresh graphic, story not so original, but well made and fitting. Developed into nice, well made product. Every update took longer and longer, but content had certain quality. Solid game. But over this years, it still looks like DC(or his team) is not taking this game, or his donators serious. Today is three months point since last update. Is the content they are creating really that big, that it took so much time? Or they are slowly shifting into another Breeding Season team or whatever, where constant huge pile of money pouring into their pocket makes them think they dont have to deliver product on time, because "they pay, they will wait". They have team of 6 people (excluding hr and web/discord), and they cant set a deadline and keep it? Maybe it is time to hire actual product manager? Since they are earing 38k $ a month. I bet they will anounce new game in like half of year to justify more and more delay and keep flow and hype going. Akabur did that, MrDots did that, and it all worked. I'm not saying - pull out your pledges. But respect yourselves and demand respect.

The problem that moste people dont ever understand is that project bottlenecks dont magically disappear because you have a bigger budget. Took almost a year to find an artist to help with backgrounds. I dont see that the speed of developmen has dropped, actually. Alot of the work done is adding new locations that will play a larger part in the rest of the story. Those locations can later be reused. One of the key features is asking patreons in the streams and forums about the content and getting feedback, if you join a stream, you can actually be a small part of the development by adding your imput.

If you want to follow the development process you can watch streams and read patreon forums etc. Otherwise, just wait like everyone else.

Apart from the last Halloween update there was never really a need to replay old stories apart from some very basic cotent. So for the Roxxy update it'll likely be okay to simply play her story and not really bother with for example the teachers, Mrs. Johnson, Mia, Mom, etc.
In addition the "cheat mode" for money and mini games works really fine which means you can focus on the new story as well and don't have to bother earning money for old basic items etc.

the first 25 or 30 times I played through were for fun. now I just go far enough to see new scenes. will probably play through again from the beginning a ways in the future.

My main problem with SS right now is that the multiple paths are not that great. When the updates were entirely focused on one character, it was MUCH better. When they begun with eric's update, things started to get messy.
All subsequent updates had the same problem, except for the new Mom update, which is the best thus far ( followed by the sis update). Im hoping that the Aunt and the new sis update will be the best updates to date, but after that, if they keep going for the multiple paths, they will all be underwhelming.

Its hard to make good updates with an art bottleneck if you are trying to have 319371937918379 different paths in the same update.

sis and mom have many sex scenes.. new characters have MUCH less,even though they have much more conversasations.. But here is the deal.. No1 plays it for the story lol.

Still.. its a fun game and worth playing.. Just its not the best anymore.

People keep saying the updates are taking longer and longer, when they've been pretty consistent:

16.0 Roxxy - Jul 21/18 (guesstimate)
15.3 Teacher update - Apr 16/18
14.5 Mom restructure update - Dec 20/17
14.3 Aqua/Halloween update - Oct 31/17
14.1 Mia update - Oct 12/17
13.1 Erik/Mrs. Johnson update - Aug 23/17
12.6 Sister add-on update - Jun 25/17
12.1 Sister (and Aunt add-on) update - May 21/17
11.6 Mom add-on update - Mar 31/17
11.0 Mom update - Mar 10/17
10.b Aunt update - Jan 23/17

Regular updates used to be roughly 6-8 weeks. Last update was more than twice the size of a usual update with better animations and was about 15 weeks. This update is supposed to be the same size, and based on the leaked gif, even better animations, and looks to be clocking in at just under 14 weeks.

As an aside, Mr. Dots had to start a new game, Patreon nixed DMD twice and he wasn't going to be able to have it on Patreon anymore. And he is still putting out releases for DMD, just alternating with Melody.

This game is pure milking now. Since I dont pledge anymore it doesnt matter to me, there are enough twats who pledge for quarterly updates

How can you say they are milking it, given the above info, and the fact that you can see the work being done on practically a daily basis? Yeah, it sucks that it's so long between releases when some other devs release monthly content. I reduced my monthly pledge when I realized it took longer to get a release. But people keep claiming they are milking it now, when it's demonstrable that they are plugging away at a consistent pace.

They keep trying to lump DC in with some of those game creators who release every month using recycled models and shit. DC draws and redraws shit and that ain't a walk in the park. Given the upgrade in animation quality, it's understandable it would take a little bit more working days. Emphasis on the days. Not weeks but days.

If DC is "Milking it" then Aorrta and Gumdrop is starting a factory bigger than Nestle.

Update on pregnancy for the ladies from MC???
