Ren'Py Abandoned Summertime Saga [v0.20.16 Pre-tech] [Kompas Productions]

[Dogeek]

Oh, I see, I guess people are always going to be impatient. Just saying that this update took a long time, yet it's even bigger than the previous one. The animations are smooth, there's like 7 different sex scenes, a really long questline with plenty of lewd stuff happening. People are complaining about updates taking so long, but it's because we're really ramping the quality of the game up.

Also, If you take into account the total time it took us to just do debbie from start to finish, it's like 3-4 months of development spanned over 3 updates. And it was just for debbie. After this update, Roxxy will not be touched. maybe her mom, and some new stuff when we do the dating system, but the main content is done. That was not the case when debbie was released.

Oh, I'm not complaining about dev time. I'm not even a patron, so I wouldn't even have the right to if I wanted.

 

[Dogeek]

To be honest, our supporters are never the ones complaining. People that don't support somehow feel entitled to weekly updates that add the content of the teachers update.

 

[Crawdaddy]

I'm not surprised, really.

 

[BakaMangaka]

where can I find the magazines?

 

[VermillioN]

After this update, Roxxy will not be touched.

well, i guess this is the last update for me:FeelsBadMan:

 

[Ungawa]

Will still have to start a new game in 0.16 or we have to wait till after 0.18 for that to be feasible (end of the old characters code rework)?
P.s Is Dc dead set on Diane for 0.17 instead of jenny? (dem 40 votes).

New game until Jenny and Diane are rehauled. Then save fixes.

DC spends way too many time drawing/animating irrelevant characters smh

 

[sky11]

If you come at 4 p.m I'll be excited from 3 p.m

Among little prince ...

I haven't had any appetite these days...
When the game is updated
My taste will come back...:test2:

I have no problem waiting for a decent update . Nothing worse than those small ones with little content that you finish in 5 minutes.

Umm.. because theyre also part of the story even if they're minor characters?

 

[SengalBoi]

So this update will be even bigger than the teacher's update? Wow.

Fun game, good plots, good graphics. Only irritation is the issue that some of the plot lines seem to get reset from time to time and have to go back to a previous save game to get back to normal. For example, status with "Deb" keeps getting reset from time to time. Very frustrating.

It appears you have run into a bug. In my experience, it is caused from utilizing the 'scroll up' feature to try to 'go back' to either reread, or worse, pick a different option. You need to go back to a save before that started happening, and don't do that any more. If you need to 'go back in time', reload a save.
Remember the Sierra On-Line motto 'Save early, save often' (and use a lot of slots!)

DC dropped a spoiler (h-scene) in discord patron only channel.

Care to share more info about it? even pictures if you have... under spoiler tags, of course

i gave Mrs brisette the homework...but cant get to sit on the chairs to attend the class...more over the door doesnot show ABC written on the glass...now what should i do?

I think you should go by the pace that works best. But I think it's a mistake to pretend like your Patreons are ok with the progress speed just cause they don't complain. They'll be less likely to complain because they have accounts with you and they're not going to want to risk being singled out by you for complaining.

That said I feel like complaining about your speed isn't going to do anyone any good. It won't make you work faster, at most it risks the opposite.

Which version of the game do you play? That verision of the school in your screenshot doesn't exist anymore for quite some time. So either it's the wrong version or clearly a bug.

Come on, 3 months with no update? Fundamentally, I think the problem comes down to a lack of a "producer" figure. The only reason that any movie is finished anywhere close to on time or on budget is the presence of a competent producer. The same goes for most video games. When producers fail or aren't present we get things like Duke Nukem Forever or Star Citizen.

It's only been 2.5 months so far. And expectations were clearly set at the outset of this update, when the devs said it was going to be as big as the last one, which took 14-15 weeks to complete.
