What happened to developer ( Ikeda ) ? Did he stop developing games ?
He is still on top of Ci-en , but there were no any news or updates for few month.
And on twitter it seems that he just posting about his daily life.

It's recap time!
Had some health issues while developing this game but got better, moved out onto a new apartment, bought a bike and went sightseeing, cancelled his sfw "slay the spire"-like game, started to learn 3d modeling and animation (more specifically Blender), did some pixel art and went AWOL.

His last tweet is from a month ago and was about how he felt frustrated and on a slump but somehow got a neat idea and that he's gonna work on it. He does advertise his games on the DojinOtome twitter account from time to time so we know he's still around.

But to sum it up.

oh you gotta spend money on steam for that
You don't have to, there are FOSS tools I'm sure. Plus, you know, piracy.

isn't it the same as fsr and equivalent
No. I'm not suggesting you use their smooth upscaling modes, just integer nearest neighbor. If you use any software to apply the largest integer scaling factor possible to this game, the results will be perfect. Every pixel will be completely square, no warping.

If you don't know what I'm talking about you can just use the instructions I provided to edit main.js and it will approximate this effect provided your display is 1080p.

Where would you downloaded it safely? apart of steam... yk... I've never download a anything else apart of games that way you know...

What is FOSS? (srry for being so clueless lol I've never seen this kind of stuff (neither the lossless or integer stuff, kinda want to search more info about it ngl), I was just aware of upscaling stuff of AMD and Nvidia

I mean it would work with the instructions you gave us, but having a 1440p monitor and play it in windowed... kinda hurts hahahha

Is there another apk for this?, i tried using emulators but im always stuck at the camera when i use it there's no way exiting on camera
APK port works. It gets finicky when you try to initiate a mentai battle but it works. Also the port version that I've seen going around is missing one h-skill, so it might be behind a version or two from the latest game version.

Its a shame he doesn't do the obvious sequel of:
  1. Age MC up slightly
  2. Invite main trio girls to different location for another summer
    1. Either his home town or just completely different location so we get new side characters
    2. Maybe his parents are around this time (instead of uncle) and its explained that around them hes not the sexual deviant we know, so a plotline is about "curing" that
  3. Add 3d sex scenes (maybe with option of pixel art for those who like it)
  4. And if you're feeling real spicy, add pregnancy outcomes
And boom. He's got a great formula already, just expand on it slightly and everyone is happy

Not so great imo.
The problem here is that that would be another iteration or sequel and people usually loose interest over time, specially if it's the same set of characters, even if you add new characters to replace the sub-heroines you still have the main trio and boku, it's bound to get stale eventually. People here were already complaining how "little" winter added over its predecessor.

I followed the development of both SM & WM from the begginig since I became a fan after playing Succumate. And he reworked the maps, the pixel animations, standing art, the mechanichs as well as QoL improvements, while also adding bigger animations, sleep molestation, added new maps, the EX events, etc. and people still complained about how it's not a proper sequel and how it should've DLC despite WM changing so much that they became practically incompatible despite being made in the same engine (RPGM MV), it was a full-on rework of the game, and I know that because I've modded both games.

And this is coming from someone that does gamedev as a hobby, but people with no experience modding or developing games underestimate how much time it takes to make a game, and I'm not talking about western devs that milk their patrons over months if not years, most jp devs eventually release their. But saying something like "yeah, just add 3d scenes and that'll do it" it's something that an "idea guy" would say.

"What is an idea guy" you ask?
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

And I'll make myself abundantly clear here that I don't mean it as an insult, a lot of people in this forum make comments like that about every single game posted here, and some of them are made out of ignorance since most users have never done a game. And I don't mean to give devs a free pass to be lazy either, some people that know what they are talking about, make some great points about how some devs are just "winging it" and whatever they're claiming take weeks or months could be done in way less time, more efficiently, etc.

Do I really need to play MINI GAMES ? I know some quests require them like washing dishes and they give money but I really don't like that. (Already play too much in previous game)

Not really, you could cheat money with an online save-editor as that's all the mini-games are for despite a little amount of "like"-stat points, if i remember correct.

Different games give different rewards aside from the base money. Restaurant unlock recipes, Menko drops items (underwear if 100ed heroine), calligraphy give different daily buff, and also change the calligraphy on the wall, for photobook, and other.
Better to just fail the minigame and use the built in cheat if you rather not play.

You've got a point there. Menko was the only mini game I played and liked :D

now that's interesting, the Dev said under the tweet that it wont be a sequel to the main story. so maybe a small visual novel exploring what ifs? or maybe just a standard rpgm scene collector game that takes place after winter memories. either way looking forward to it
