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

Why even mention day/daycount/time/schedule in the some dialogue(s)/events/scenes if there is no time limit.

Could use a minor rewrite or out right removal of such instances, as its confusing and leads players into thinking there is a hard time limit.

How is knowing you played over 1000 days tell you there's maybe a time limit ?

Many quests need you to wait some days before progressing ........

Time of day is also 100% needed, see below ..........

Schedule : why split the day into 3-4 slots when you can cram everything into 1 and make the day last 3 weeks in-game ?

So far : the game is 100% legit in everything and your point(s) do(es)n't do anything. Confusing who or what too ? You never see the # of days unless you save (0 problem there), game works as a normal week does (still no problem, it also makes everything somewhat relatable, like having school during 5 days), day to night is also needed for most of the events (yet again nothing wrong). This smells like either a failed whinage or a massive and weird you problem

Ok, my wording/explaination wasn't that well thought out, thats on me, but no need to blow up.
My statement about "day/daycount/time/schedule" was in error, those are not 'limits'.

The game starts off stating mc needs to get grades up for the semester.
Semester = perceived time limit........ hence the confusion and the many posts asking if there is a timelimit.
[I even asked if there was a timelimit, don't want to have to min/max a perfect run to maximize scenes and to minimize replays. Thankfully the game is NOT designed this way.]

I guess it's like the simpsons, never ending year with 20+ Christmases.

Happy Holidays.

The game is just dead

It following the TiTs format of giving out just enough promises to keep the shill going

Over 3 years for 1st post and we got hot garbage ....... Not bad ...... Sadly it's 100% junk and/or false

 

[Omnikuken]

Might as well consider it completed

And the ~12 new routes/remakes will be what ? DLC ?

 

[Omnikuken]

Big brain reply!

Considering what you 1st posted, anything is indeed bigbrain replies

You need to repair it 1st, then check the yellow Post-it on the screen. If you still can't cause you're fat fingering on a phone, not much we can do

Tech Update... what a joke.

 

[teddddyy12]

It was his claim!
0.16 showed that DC can pull out a big update in about three months with a lot of scenes, many still claim that the roxxy update was the best.
That has shown that if DC wants to, he can release a big update within a quarter

It's not the perfect comparison, though. Roxxy's update was the last one without any reworks, without the rig-system, without pregnancy and the first one, which had AEHentai do the animations, which likely means they took some time beforehand to figure everything out, too.

I'm not saying that it wasn't a really good update, but just that it's different to what we started to get with 0.17 onward. And that doesn't even include the fact, that DC by now has two more children compared to back then.

I decided to plot each of DC's releases by date & release type and I agree that it's definitely taking longer for each update - has been for a while.

Your dates are wrong. Tech Update started in February 2021, not July.

Art was done a little while back and writing will be done this week so we should be moving on to the following tech update in the meantime.

He was selling yet another story about how HR drama was at fault for another delay on 20.8 and how "we" will switch to the Tech Update in days. He also claimed he's already working on the vaporware, presenting changes to the map.

The Tech Update is the one we are currently working on at the moment and will be next to release.

 

[Kenuichi]

Man It's just so cool coming back in this thread after a while and STILL seing people complaining how DC is slow with the Tech updates/updates, how much money he makes in a month and most importantly seeing people fight between because of the stupidest things.

Gotta get my popcorns and enjoy while I'm at

Vaporware he's been streaming about ~daily for the last 2 years ...... And the ~30 scenes we got in 6 batches since then. Yep, total scam

I thought Dark Cookie / Kompas would AT LEAST try to placate Patrons with a Christmas release!
Until he starts losing Patrons there’s really no reason to work hard.
They’ve obviously taken the last 2 months or so as a vacation. The progress percentage has been stuck at 79% for a long long time… Months! He controls the percentages… he doesn’t even bother to fake the number to show that someone is actually working on it! Such Hubris!

So much words for so little sense ........ You got an Xmas update : 2 wallpapers of R(h)onda's mom. Also, you got +2% since early Oct with ~19 new total tasks and ~26 done. Vacation it is indeed, like those 26 tasks worked themselves while the poser(s)/coder were doing beach stuff ........ Delusional is the new meta in this place

You do not have to jump and defend him every single time someone posts, you know. It is really sad.

Is there a list somewhere of what the Tech Update will actually include?

I think the next Tech Update will include Rhonda but i don't know if she will be only her or her mother as well

No, R(h)onda isn't scheduled to be part of the Tech Update. She/her family scheduled for after.
