Status update (December)!

Comments

Dude, shut the fuck up. This game has always been totally free. AAA studios have literally hundreds of team members. DK has a couple of guys. There has never been a paywall for game content, any monetary support they've gotten has been from people wanting to show support for a free product. Be patient and enjoy your free game, you entitled prick. Otherwise buggar off and be a nuisance elsewhere. Pathetic.

Softestlips

*Gawk* *Gawk* It's not about devs are lazy, it's about devs not providing to their paying customers. Try to see past the shaft in your mouth.

Nymous

I'll post this here because DC is too much of a cuck to say in a update with comments disabled that he's put together something to play and wants people to play test it. Still nothing is provided, we've waited literal years, and instead of giving the people, some of which you have received literal hundreds of dollars from, content they can partake in, you instead decide to pick a focus group to playtest what you have put together, something we have been waiting literal years for. I wonder why. You are no better than EA or any other shitty AAA company.

Nymous

Ya deja pas mal de scène avec elle, la il se concentre plus sur les autre perso

Jo_drigue Laborieux

The software isn't compatible with the poco x6 pro The problem is the incompatibility of the Android 14 version

Smith

How come everyone update shows new stuff on here but yet when I download each time the map and locations are always the same?

James Marsh

Oh yea!!! We are up to 80% haha I love reading everyone’s comments. Just hilarious.

Davi

yaaawwwwwn

Skeeta_bite

Il serait agréable de pouvoir faire plus de choses avec Debbie, déjà qu'elle puisse se faire engrosser, qu'on puisse lui lécher la chatte, comme avec Jenny, pouvoir l'amener dans ma maison de la plage, c'est sur que c'est du travail, mais depuis deux ans qu'on attend le nouveau désigne, on aurais bien le droit a de nouvelle passions.

HARDOIN Georges

The fact that you'd rather complain about it in the comments than move on with your life says more about you than it does about the game devs. You don't like it? Don't support it. You wanna invest more of your time banging your head against a wall trying to tell other people what they can spend 1$ a month on? Whatever tickles your fancy fam. If it's fun, It's not a waste. You are definitely not having fun arguing in a comments section for a free to play porn game. Stay mad lil'homie.

Levi Doyle

I think hes being sarcastic and you took it too seriously..

Carl Reyes

Come scarico gli aggiornamenti?

Ambrogio

They changed how the tracker shows % ........ Nice try at fake drama, ~3 months too late anyway

Omnikuken

feb 2023 77% - feb 2024 79%

skype skype2012

Beth looks good, can't wait guys

PIETRO GRUMI

@Eth You do know the overall % won't move much when there's ~50 to 100 tasks left on 4 bars ? And that (if) when the debug line goes online, it'll plummet down to like 45% ? Stop pledging and move on if you can't take the wait, most of us won't care about it

Omnikuken

Tell us you don't have 3 young kids without telling us you don't have 3 young kids. It's a miracle he isn't sick/dead every week at this point

Omnikuken

Guy is constantly getting sick every other week

Marco Burrola

Did you read this months progress update? Its miles long mate, wdym. The whole "Devs are lazy" shit is getting old now, yall dont know how game development actually works.

XhyRobtic

The problem is, someone is being lazy. DC says to keep an eye on the progress bar this month, I expected 10%, at least 5, we got fucking one or two. Imo stop supporting until they put this update out, there really isn't all that much to this game and the amount of time its taking for them to do what they claim they are trying to is absurd.

Eth

I've been subbed for a while. Edit: But thanks for reminding me to turn that off

Joshua

And you had to pay DC to come tell us that ?

Omnikuken

Idk why yall are so impatient, other games exist in the meantime In case you didnt notice, this update essentially re-writes the game and polishes the art from the ground up, hence the wait time. Itll be worth it for the games long run. In the mean time, theres plenty of game to the game anyway, its not like this is Minecraft yall lol

XhyRobtic

Ill actually shit my 👖 on video if this gets an update

Joshua

That won't happen and there won't be a release date. Ever. Just wait 4-5 days for the monthly recap and go from there. You won't get anything else anyway

Omnikuken

When be any info about update's date? It's just that the last update was back in 2022, have you considered doing some minor update to quench the thirst of fans?

Евгений Шестак

I think yes, that's work fine at 13th

Евгений Шестак

Is the game compatible with android 14?

Levi

When will these types of updates be able to be played?

Peluca

Como lo actualiso

Pepe Lopez

It could be tomorrow or past 2050, nobody knows nor should care. Wild guesstimates don't need to be precise and/or make sense when dealing with extremely volatile matter (like DC changing his mind 20x per stream or him adding 10+ new locations in town nobody asked for)

Omnikuken

how do you know it'll be 10 years?

Woah HG

Just replay the game until it drops new update play for 2 hours a day should help 😂

BabyJoker614

You'll wait for a while then. And what "MC story" ? Sure, he's there for every girl in town, but his "story" is mostly done. Until DC starts making the "ending" of the entire game in 10 years when all routes are done and the last "main goal(s)" are finished.

Omnikuken

True, it's been a long wait and the ancipation is starting to get to me also, but I look forward to the the new version of this game. The game thus far is entertaining. I am especially looking forward to more MC story progression.

Matthew T Cates

If you can't get back into the channel(s), probably not. You could try to argue with DC during 1 of his streams and hope. Or you can try to PM him in here and pray he replies Another option would be to make a new Discord account, nuke the hacked 1 from your Patreon profile and put the new 1 instead. Refresh a few times and hope RNGesus loves you enough

Omnikuken

And yet you keep giving him $

Omnikuken

Is there anyway I can get in contact with a moderator for the discord about my account being banned because it got hacked

Kerry Swoope

Dude hasn't posted since Halloween 2022. Dude's killing my hype T-T

Fred

The apk download is so old that it cant be installed on newer androids lol

Tesserakt

Update what anyway ? The game hasn't moved in over a year. You don't need to update anything since then

Omnikuken

i asked seriously....

flyxer2

You hit caps lock and wait

Omnikuken

It wasnt that bad tho, i remember the time when we get no update for 2 years (or a year and a half I guess?) and when i realize im missing 2 update :D Good time

Hawrtz

HOW TO UPDATE GAME?

flyxer2

Nymous wtf are you talking about, it was 74% in October

Atis Nicholson

Thank you very much, I checked my email and there was the information

jesus sanchez

las actualizaciones son anuncios o es una actualización del juego para los patreon?

vicziaton

Good to know

Omnikuken

bleeding rn

Amanohoko

You get insta-invited once your payment goes through .... Unless you go out of your way into your account to cockblock it

Omnikuken

Discord?

jesus sanchez

You can't split a code remake into small updates. You do know all he's doing is to pass time while the posers/coder do their part ? Would you prefer he did nothing for ~2 years and not have all the bonus scenes/backgrounds instead ? You also do know that most of the update's art was done in the 1st year or so and everything since then is add-ons to stuff the rest of the team tags as needing touch-ups/more angles/different timeslots/etc ? "Commitment to Patrons" : He streams daily and replies to most of the junk people ask him. That's commitment. He also doesn't owe any1 (paying or not) anything outside the pledge tier rewards. As with every other dude that can't stand reality : stop pledging and move on. Nothing will happen with or without you and no1 will care either way. People have been moaning the same thing for years, what did it do ? Jacksquat nothing.

Omnikuken

How to download complete game?

M N

The problem is that you're a cuck. Yea, sit there and tell them that all the money you've dumped into them really isn't that significant. I bet you get off on that huh? Meanwhile I've been checking the progress bar monthly at it still, to this day going back to October of 2023 has not moved above 79%. I hate these devs. With a passion. They made a great product and refuse to finish it because of cucks like you that will just continue to fund it regardless.

Nymous

DC won't give 1 and the trackers aren't there for that. Have fun

Omnikuken

It would be nice just for a estimate time to finish

Kyle Miller

My point is I figure I got my money's worth based on what I've paid thus far compared to how much enjoyment I've gotten out of the game in it's current state.

Levi Doyle

What?

Malachi abercrombie

Bot much ? Also, there's subtler ways to shill devs on another's page

Omnikuken

NLT Games and summertime saga is one of many games and website I love go see NLT Games from NLT he got good games

Malachi abercrombie

Between never and when it's done. Keep in mind the more people ask about it, the longer it gets. They add a few days each time

Omnikuken

You don't pay for the game though ....... Scroll back up to a random post I replied to with the reasons why.

Omnikuken

You got ~10k parts of images (probably more) to load at once at the start so the game doesn't choke up every time you get to a new scene. Get unren and decrypt the archive. Now imagine the game having to load all that crap at once.

Omnikuken

All things considered I feel like the wait isn't really all that bad. I mean lets be honest I have only been doing the 1$ sub off and on as budget allows for about 2 yrs or so (maybe less) so at most I have spent between $20 or $25 for a game I and my wife play with the express purpose of "manual physical self-gratification" . I spent about the same on Robocop: Rouge City and while I love the game (Huge Robocop fan) I didn't get NEARLY as much content and satisfaction as I do from summertime saga. I'd say I got my money's worth on both for different reasons, but any game you can keep coming back to multiple times a year for less than $30 and still get the same enjoyment from the experience isn't a bad deal from my perspective. Additionally, I have the option to stop paying whenever I choose so if it ever becomes a "bad value" in my eyes I will have no one to blame but my self for continuing to pay. Everything in life is a choice, it's simply a matter of whether or not we accept the results of the choice we made.

Levi Doyle

man Update When ???

wizard master

Why it loads so........ Slow....? Just curious

Dennis

It was updated almost monthly in the beginning, if you do not remember that, then you were not here from the start. As far as whom he is pissing off, that would be those that stuck around for years. Obviously not you. But alas he does keep getting more and more supporters. That is merely because it is a great game, that has never been the issue. The Issue is instead of wasting time on backgrounds and BS superficial garbage, the efforts and concentration should be upon the update. The inattentions to this is an obvious showing of his lack of commitment to his patreons. Perhaps this update should have been broken down into a few smaller updates. But we all keep paying the subscriptions for literally nothing.

Eric

The amount of copium you are projecting I'd amazing. It's worth my 12 bucks to see absolute re+ards like you defend this bs. It's like the special Olympics but not as inspiring.

Luke

Actually knowing stuff before posting hot garbage goes a long way. And since most of said junk hasn't changed in the last 3 years, you can conclude that people are indeed braindead

Omnikuken

Wow, Omni. You must be a great parent. You do not take one side or the other in all this update mess. Bravo!!

War-Son

You good. You're dick riding like crazy. We can complain. Especially if something is taking over 10 times longer then it was supposed to.

Gman32

Probably because it's the same braindead "questions" asked for the last ~3 years. He might be tired of repeating himself daily

Omnikuken

like hey guys, this is the very much non-NEET talking about how DC is "stringing him along" - stringing you along? FFS, buddy. I come back every couple of months to see what's happening because this is such a minor little distraction in my life. What's got you so mad? Is it the money? Just fucking unsubscribe and move on. You didn't pay more than $12 a year at most, did you? Is it the feeling that DC is dicking you over? UNSUBSCRIBE AND MOVE ON. That's the only healthy choice here if that's really what you think happened. Or else, you know, just go down the other path and become yet another crank on the internet who has to be as annoying as fucking possible.

AKorgar

Honestly, I'm fucking glad you feel your money got stolen, Luke. I hope you only get angrier. Guy is talking about "NEET bucks" as if he's not the one sperging out over his undelivered porn. This is the kind of deranged behavior that comes from someone who has nothing better to do in his life than constantly hit the refresh button and then smash his hentai figurines in rage that the update hasn't happened yet.

AKorgar

Homey, seriously, get help. If things in your life are this bad that you're "feeling miserable" over a porn game, then you need to get some perspective and get your shit together. Stop being the Dark Triad internet guy. Cancel your subscription if it's twisting your guts up that much. Go to Steam, where they sell games already finished. Find something that's actually life-or-death serious to get that twisted up over. It's an election year! I'm sure you'll find something.

AKorgar

Nymous, buddy, if you're so fucking salty about the fap material you're paying dribs and drabs for, that you're wishing suicide/hanging on the dev team, then maybe it's time for you to zip up, log off, and go out into the world and get some perspective. Nobody is forcing you to remain on this Patreon, you are literally electing each and every month to be here. Stop being an entitled fucking toad.

AKorgar

You want to wait for 2 builds after the tech then, aka 2-3 years minimum

Omnikuken

I want MC to fuck principal Smith so bad!

Brandon

Büro we want lucy

Behram Kemer

Nope, do you ?

Omnikuken

Omnikuken, do you even sleep?

Atis Nicholson

I GOT A NEW LAPTOP AND I'M SO LAZY FOR CLICKING AGAIN @@

Huy Nguyễn

For what ? The gameplay and gallery are 2 separate things.

Omnikuken

Can i get a save file? pls

Huy Nguyễn

Nope, and the dev doesn't know either. Plus, there's not much to play when the update comes out, unless the 16:9 wider screen and few new places is thrilling to you .....

Omnikuken

I just wonder if there is a target year planned for the completed tech update. I don't mind putting a reminder for sometime in 2025 on my Calendar if that is the case. I am looking forward to seeing the updates. I've played tons of games in the couple years since I last played this and there are quite a few with much better graphic systems than was common even a year ago.

Mr. S

The same one since November.. and it hasnt changed from 78%.. Its not very good of a feeling considering that 2 months had already passed and that number hasnt changed.

jose hernandez

Have done that most the time I have seen him skip over a lot of the questions

Tomasz

Not really. You don't pay a dev so he makes what you want, you donate to a dev to say "good job, keep doing what you want/like". Dev then doesn't owe you anything, outside the tier perks. Which doesn't include the game (even if it wasn't free to begin with). 99%+ of people don't understand that from Patreon, therefore every1 and their mom keep crying about "he makes too much $/he should hire 50 dudes and complete the game yesterday/etc" Patreon isn't there for you, it's there for the devs (mostly randoms who don't make games) that need $ to keep doing their art. That DC makes more per month than most people do in a year doesn't mean he needs to bend over backwards and triple his output just so people stop whining. You got a problem with any of that ? Stop pledging. Done deal. ("You" being every1 and any1, not the dude being replied to)

Omnikuken

Again. I donated 1 Buck to see if I missed anything. And that's absolutely fine. I should give him a little more in fact. DC offers his work (so far) for free on his website. No shame in spending a little for done work. But that's where the problem lies though. Barely getting any work done, but receiving funds a professional could only dream of is just something that irks me in general. And it's definitely a bad thing that people have been complaining for 3 years and no changes to the workflow were made. That's just showing no regard for the community and his patrons.

Willy Wanka

Summertime has been #1 adult project for more than 5 years on Patreon, it won't die out anytime soon. Subs go up and down monthly. They did plummet more earlier in the tech update's "life" when people just knee-jerk reacted to DC taking more time than anticipated. It then went back up when the monthly "recaps" started showing up. As for other games dying cause devs went 180 to re-do everything : probably not on this scale. Most devs do it incrementally (mostly per-update) since they don't have ~5 years of junk to wade through when their game is only 2-3 builds deep ....

Omnikuken

And yet you're still giving him $ to come in here and cry about it .... You could just un-sub, go to Picarto and tell him he blows (and get banned) then move on. Nothing will happen and no1 will care. People have been moaning for almost 3 years and 0 changes were made. Doubt 1 more or less will do anything different

Omnikuken

That's a bad defense then. His streams are 90 min max. Heck of an hourly rate if that's all he does a day. (Which he isn't of course.) Still, the lack of progress for that kind of money is laughable.

Willy Wanka

Yeah I totally understand. It was just a unrealistic sentiment. I am not an expert in game development but am I wrong to think that it is not only about coding in such a project? Aren't there other subs who run dry while a single person tries to rewire everything completely new?

mikeinson

The only new stuff you'll get is a wider screen with new buildings on the town map, some interior locations and a few new girls in them with no scenes (or very little, and no lewds). It's been "set in stone" for the last 3 years, no surprises coming. You might feel surprised by (most of) the wallpapers DC made since then being reformatted into intro scenes for the girls to replace the junk (or empty void) we got currently. But still no new lewd scenes. Tech update is what it's called : a code remake and 16:9 screen size rework. Nothing more.

Omnikuken

He streams daily. You do that and get told you do nothing. See how you react

Omnikuken

I've pledged to see if there really was no update for over a year. And holy shit ... it really is. Before I pledged it said you having over 28k of paid subscribers. That's insane ... Must be a dream to get paid a fortune for doing close to nothing.

Willy Wanka

What if the real reason for the whole lack of comunication and tremendous amount of time this tech update takes is, because we will get a big surprise at the release with tons of reworked and new content to make up for this gigantic annoyance. Wouldn't that be nice? At least it would make sense to add something new to the release because a simple release after nearly 3 years without fresh content might be a little flop. At the end of the day everything is a cost-benefit ratio. If sb takes this into consideration it would have been much more beneficial to start over with a new game rather than to rehash seen content over 3 years.

mikeinson

It's not like you'll have a choice. Your save won't work anyway. And there's not much new stuff in the tech build to begin with, so you're in a dilemma : play it again for the new intro scenes (aka most of the wallpapers since 1-2 years ago) or don't play it yet since there's no new lewds ........

Omnikuken

At this rate, another 3-6 months, I guess, but I'm still really looking forward to playing the update.

PervMASTER

Nobody knows, not even the devs. Even if they knew, they never give release dates in advance. It could be next week or another year

Omnikuken

How long need to wait for next update? It been a year already.

Roxas Haiz

Dude. Whos paying you to white knight and "um actually" every little critique people have?

SnakesConstantly

Poor guy didnt get a single helpful response

SnakesConstantly

Everything will stay the same ....... Not like it's been said time and again for the last 3 years that this is a recode and a 16:9 screen size update. The only new things you'll get are the buildings in the expanded town map and (most of) the wallpapers being intro scenes to the girls (instead of nothing or the old art trash we got now) PS : Okita will get her route remake with the other teachers when people vote for them in ~3-4 years

Omnikuken

Will there be a new Okita route or is the same old one?

Drew Armstrong

And you still payed him to come in here and tell us that. Who's to blame now ?

Omnikuken

Just a reminder to all you loyalist.. as a game developer, I can promise you that this kind of game takes. quite liiterally, a mere fraction of the time hes taking to deliver you this game.. Not to be toxic, just informative that this content creator is arguably the biggest hustler on patreon.

Adam Ghost

Yes. That is exactly what I was suspecting

DramaCoach69

Make that like 5 years. This tech update has been going on for what 2 years now. Longer them some AAA games

Dredgen

Keep sighing then, she won't have her preg remake until after the tech, the 3 planned routes and a few polls she'll have to win. So ~2-3 years from now, at best

Omnikuken

Sighs. Amongst all the news on what’s being done and expanded, I still don’t see Roxxy pregnancy. The other girls are fun, but she’s my favorite and makes a great leader for the MCs little harem

DramaCoach69

summertimesaga.com/news, check the tracker on the left

Omnikuken

Upcoming route is the tech build. After that is Rhonda. So not really. You can go to the wiki for past poll results

Omnikuken

Go ask DC directly in his Picarto streams if you want answers. It'll be either that or insta-ban. Take your chance

Omnikuken

It's so weird to see the fanbase here demanding answers from DC and being met with silence. Then you have someone like MagicNuts who actually responds to people's comments, which are mostly positive. Just wish there wasn't so much uncertainty here

SilentG

Dear dev team i hope that in upcoming update whole school route ,school stories, shall be finished + i have question: Can i see all past voting poles from higher patreon status?

Patyk

what is the persentage of what is left

vincent pasquariello

Love the game .. please advice on the ETC ..thanks

joedingdong

"Far away" is a nice way of saying "around 2 years from now, at best"

Omnikuken

DC is a horny entrepreneur. Good for him. I know Judith is far away but…..want

GoHawks1840

It never updated monthly. And even if it did, it was 1 non-animated scene with trash art. This isn't Kickstarter. You're not paying for the game, nor is it a pledge goal to get it, even if you pay the 20$/month max tier. Pissing who ? You get mad at DC, you stop pledging. There. Done. No drama. Nobody cares and nobody will miss you. People have been crying for years about everything DC does wrong. What did it bring ? Nothing. He's still doing wtf he wants and dudes still pledge.

Omnikuken

It has been well over a year for an update. You would think that as much money as this creator makes, it would be more of a priority. Yet all he is doing is pissing off the loyal patrons he has left. Yes I see new people come and go and hope and pray for an update that at this point I am beginning to doubt will ever come. I keep anticipating the demise like Breeding Season took so long ago. This game used to update almost monthly when I first became a patron.... then it has slowed constantly up to its current pathetic rate of NEVER.

Eric

:(

GoHawks1840

Bro is glazing him dry

Admiral McNugget

This whole debacle started before that. The original vote was for the tech update vs another gameplay update. Per DC: "Both update choice will take roughly the same amount of time (3 to 4 months) to complete." The poll took place on December 3rd, 2020, and the results were announced on December 15th, 2020. If you want to say that he started in March, then I'll simply amend my above statement to: "All the simps gotta feel real silly that the update started two years and nine months ago, and it's still not complete." I'm feeling great, though you seem to be embracing your silliness. Keep at it...

Whisper9191

Will the game be released this year?) At least in the first quarter of this year, is it worth waiting for something?)

Yaroslav

What next rewrite ? There's only 1 and it's still months away Rhonda will come after the tech build, and about another 3-4 months Biker bar will be in the tech update Both of which aren't in the game, which means downloading the same old file 20+ times won't do anything .......

Omnikuken

just a quick question how much longer will it be before the next rewrite, it's nice to see all the wallpaper, but none of it adds to my game. when does Ronda come in and the bicker bar, I can't seem to have any of it I keep downloading

Edward Walag

Don’t forget, something we have now is compatibility with the earlier version saves. Some of that is quite unique

Skeeta_bite

There hasn't been an ETA for anything in the last ~6 years. Don't expect 1 any time soon. Like never.

Omnikuken

There's been 5+ dudes on the coding job since the game launched 7 years ago (including DC). Some of them (aka DC) blew some major ass. The end result of all that is the game we have now : a complete mess that barely works. Solution to that is what they're doing with the tech build : get 1 dude to burn everything down and redo it alone, so at least his coding will be compatible with itself and not be a mish-mash of 5+ dudes with variable coding prowess

Omnikuken

I might be able to help explain from what I know. When you build a framework or engine, or any kind of scripting, you have to have something to build to test the framework. From there you usually start building versions around Alpha to Beta. Once your beta testing you really get into where you can actually see if something is working or how difficult to get it to work can be. By that I mean, you have to kind of patch things together to have a build able program. From there you might explore the roadmap of the game and decided Patch A and Patch B will not support transfering Objects or Variables because they are supposed to be compatible, but for whatever reason they just arent. rather that be a coding mistake or VERY often poor documentation on the external objects/script/control. etc. From there you are stuck, so you start planning how to spin off a newer build of the framework. The assets are made, but the framework just wont behave. TLDR is more than likely unfixable framework issues or deprecated code.

KR

March 2021 isn't over 3 years ago, and that's not even when they started the tech build (it's the last "normal" update they released). Who's feeling silly now ?

Omnikuken

I come back when Update was done

PJ92

All the simps gotta feel real silly that the update started over three years ago, and it's still not complete.

Whisper9191

They're redoing the entire game to be 16:9, and recoding everything to not be the giant mess we currently have. That's why they have to go back and change everything already in-game.

Omnikuken

I love playing the game! I just have to wonder, why keep going back and redoing what's already there? This is the third game I've enjoyed that the creator has gone back and redone parts or the whole thing even. I like a game where once I play through it it keeps adding to itself. No offense, but usually when I get an update that requires me to start the game over I just skip what I've played before to get to the new parts.

Jesse James

Nothing. They release the game updates on "private" servers for Patrons a few hours before dumping it on "public" links afterwards. You pay to have access to those and get the game a little faster. The tier reward also states "private servers", pretty self-explanatory

Omnikuken

He’s working on multiple updates as well like Rhonda and Judith but, from what I understand the tech update was to fix/retool the game basically had to build the game from the ground up again, the tech update isn’t about new content “supposedly” I honestly don’t know, no deadlines are set so it just keeps going on and on.

Jay

Hi, everyone! I am a new patron... so, what would be these private downloads included in the COOKIE MUNCHER package?

Saniston Rodrigues

Dude shut up… please go somewhere

Jay

Thanks for all your hard work. Looking forward to the updates.

Jason

I like how you guys are creating so many side characters and giving them relatives, even giving them jobs and apartments that you're damn near detailing the entire town lol

AKorgar

Bonne Année DC

Frederic BEITZ

Having an ETA would be grate to...

Jamie Graham

Happy new year cookie the bottom of the post gets me super excited I can't wait to see the update when it's finished

wdlloyd96 on YT

What I'm confused about is how can you say there's no justification when there are monthly updates about what is actively happening in the development of the game? Like? Tell me one major game production company. That just tells they're target audience. How the progress on the game is going No I don't know the dynamic of this company in any way shape or form. Or if it's just some fucking guy to be honest. But what I do know is from following this product. For several years now. He makes great fucking games. And these are the kind of games that I don't have to worry about being persecuted by the law in my country. So I will support him with my money. My point was only that I do understand of frustration like as a fan. There's nothing. I can really say to justify it other than it has never been even close to this long

This is an amazing amount of progress, guys! I feel like this update will be worth the wait!

GTwSCEP

Au faites, mes meilleur voeux a toutes l'équipe et surtout une bonne santé!

HARDOIN Georges

plus c'est long, plus c'est bon et je l'espère, car je commence désespérer, j'en suis à ma huitième fois de l'ancien jeux, il me hâte de faire le nouveau, en espérant que ce ne sera pas à la saint clain clain

HARDOIN Georges

not yet, its been over a year since the last update. don't let that make you not want to play the game though, really good game imo

ButterB22

All these naysayers gonna feel real silly when the update comes out and it's awesome.

Jussomegay

Hey guys, is this available in the game now?

aliwhn11

the last game patch update was on Oct 31, 2022 and it was small that's crazy

Freeze

I wish us all a happy new year.. that includes reaching the finish line on the tech-update with dignity (in 2024).

Arcorn

Judith is 3 updates from now, your surprise will have to wait

Omnikuken

You pay for the month, it doesn't matter when you get stuff in-between those 30 days you're already paying for. Be happy he isn't paywalling all the stuff on the 1st of the month (like many devs do) just to force people to pledge for the month to get access to updates

Omnikuken

What scope ? They were always remaking the entire game from the ground up since day 1. They aren't doing anything more than that. Everything DC posted for the last year+ is new images for scenes already in the game. The only "new" things are places he had to make since the town map will now be ~33% wider and won't be an empty void

Omnikuken

Happy New Year Dark Cookie! Great work this year, and hopefully more great work from year in the next year! Love y'all!!!

Blueriderofneptune

Keep up the great work DC, dont let some c.nts stress u out

Mark Blythe

Couldn't agree more, it does feel like scope creep looking at their latest status which is concerning. I've got patience for another 6 months since I voted for this tech update, but not the scope creep (that should have happend during regular updates afterwards).

Deonast

Loving the game

prentic

Happy new year DC!!

Adamski

But it's not just a tech update if it was just a tech updated done a while ago it's A LOT OF CONTENT as well

Couple suggestions homie: 1. Build your own fking game if you’re so uptight about how other people build theirs. 2. Grow the fk up 3. Decrease your payment level. 4. Earn more money so you don’t care so much about a few dollars a month.

Andrew Shantz

It's an tech update. So it's an all big cluster and most of it has to be released in one go

PatPat

Dude grow up

Andrew Shantz

Looking forward to more sexiness. Keep up the good work DC

Andrew Shantz

Thanks for your hard work.

The Hell Spawn

why so longggggggggggg why, this game is gta 6?

secretxy

Did you up your donation simp? :D

Luke

luke! did you get the bleeding stopped?

Skeeta_bite

I’m cool with the delays and him makin money. Just wish their was a Judith surprise

Ya fr

Benjamin Kinsman

I don't know why you're getting so much hate this is completely correct and very well spoken

Benjamin Kinsman

To damn much all at once, should've been multiple updates

Benjamin Kinsman

You should space your Patreon wallpaper drops and your monthly updates away from each other. like one, the end of the month and the other in the middle of the month instead of a day to a week apart all at the end of each month, allows for a more active release to engagement cycle, instead of a dry spell for about 3 to 4 weeks. Not criticizing or complaining, just a thought from a social media management standpoint

Jay

Man this is going to be the biggest update in Dark Cookies life🤯. I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT TO DROP🫨

John Butler

Buddy, we are all degenerates for supporting this work and for playing the game. There's progress being made regardless and the reason more stuff gets tacked onto it is due to finding more issues that can be worked out to make a higher quality game experience. Honestly, It just sounds like a lot of people are getting impatient. furthermore i spend $20 a month to support the game. I honestly don't give a tinkers fig about that monthly expenditure because there is consistent progress being made every few days to a week at a time. Just enjoy the game and have fun. lol

Casper0173

Well, the good news is that the status bar is actually going up faster now. Hopefully, we will get the update soon.

Anime

That's a little mean.

Daniel

Havent been outside in a while, buddy?

OddOutput

Good work to finish out '23 DC. I'm sure you're proud of the team.

Andrew Pybus

Please don't ban me 😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣 fucking idiot. Why not up your donations while you are pissing away your NEET bucks

Luke

If I'm a simp, what does giving DC $ just to bitch in a monthly post make you ? A braintard ? A fucking moron ? A self-centered POS that has nothing better to do ? Keep at it bruh, you're digging your own hole and every1 is there to look and laugh at you

Omnikuken

You should not feel bad. DC and his buds are degenerate retards. They are not willing to actually complete/ provide new game content because they are degenerates who should meet the rope they themselves should hang.

Nymous

Happy new year everyone

intrepidmonkey

Go somewhere else. DC in unwilling to provide what he has advertised. Fuck him and his buddies. You should not promote/support him or any others who take your money without any kind of justification.

Nymous

Hi Dark Cookie, I normally don't comment on tech updates status updates but being the new year I hope you'll take it into consideration. I think once this update is done, you and the team really need to develop a lessons learnt report about the current pitfalls of this update. The tech update started back in March of 2021, now 32 months ago. Although patreons were provided small updates every month, this stopped in November 2022 to focus more on the work required in the tech update. Over a year later and we still haven't seen this update come out, and it seems to me this has been the result of scope creep. Looking at the way back machine, the number of tasks from March 2021 to November 2022 increased by almost 400, and since then we've seen another 54 tasks tacked on to the progress. This kind of scope creep is what can lead to the death of a project, and with patreons waiting eagerly (myself included), it can seem like it's never coming out and forever stuck in limbo. I only hope next update following has a much stronger scope defined and you continue to provide the content we all seek.

Evil746

Happy 2024!

Stefano

"s-stop being mean to DC! Or-r-r we'll mass report you!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You fucking simp. Go ahead

Luke

So you keep paying him just to cry he's not going fast enough, while also being mad at every1 that tell you to stfu and go away ? There's dumb and then there's megatards like you. You know we could mass report you and get you banned ? That would probably make your day even better, at least you wouldn't have to unpledge a dev you obviously don't like

Omnikuken

Happy new year! Can't wait!

Tsubasaj2

You need the tech and then Rhonda and Annie 1st. That's about 6+ months/a year after the tech. Soon™ is relative

Omnikuken

Happy New Year

Avman72

Happy New Year's!!

Gabriel Wagner

I can’t wait

Kieran P Fletcher

I hope we get Judith’s route soon

Okamiden407

They said it'd be "faster" as in : less time messing around the trash code and being able to make revisions faster/bug test builds. It won't make DC draw art 5x times faster cause the code is less of a giant mess

Omnikuken

What a loyal (stupid) supporter! Show me where the voting said it would take 2 years? I'll wait you fucking tard

Luke

happy new year guys 👍

Bruno Ulisses

We voted for the tech update.....we knew what the consequences would be. They were spelled out when we voted. Anyone who complains either wasn't there for the actual vote or wasn't paying attention. Drop your donation and move along.

Xero

No, I understood that part. I've been very happy with the content they have released despite their original plan. I'm specifically curious in the relative time for standard updates vs their pre-tech workflow

Ifusaso

It's not just a feeling, you'll have to replay the entire game. Your old save probably won't even load after they remade the entire codebase. Even if it did, you'll be seeing a traceback error for every line of code they changed between versions

Omnikuken

Hey I just hope there is something soon. I have been here for years now and it has never taken close to this long for an update. Yes there was a choice in this from us patrons but an extended wait was how it was said then. Like I love this game and this creator I'm not going anywhere but the frustration is reasonable

dustin frasier

They discussed this when they polled for the tech update originally. They said there would be little to no actual update releases during the tech update. People agreed and voted for the tech update. So yes we will need to wait until after the tech update to get more standard update releases.

Xero

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I just hope this is not an scam. But everything is starting to feel like so... still 78% of progress since October.. uff

jose hernandez

Nice argument. 👍 Why not up your donation!

Luke

get luke a tampoon. sounds like he’s leaking

Skeeta_bite

Great! updates on the content that I can't play/experience. Fuck you. Give us something, we've all been paying for months now, you deserve to feel as miserable as we do.

Nymous

sorry the project needs another 2 gorbillion to maybe progress some more

Chachi

lmfao oh no no no

Chachi

Keep up the good work DC! Happy new year!

The Masked Man

Happy New Year's DC! Also, will there be more pregnancy content for Aqua and the others?

ivanhunter- johnson

Please add more maria scenes

Verynice

Ah, the frisson is building, looking forward to the improvements.

Biff Edwards

👍

Steve

Happy new year! Looking forward to it being completed

DanTheRobot197

Is their anyway I can play it on my galaxy again?

Brandon Thompson

Is this a new update or?

Ivan Hapukutenahu

Literally just curious, no shade for having a sustainable pace.

Ifusaso

Are updates expected to ramp up after the tech update is done? Or are all updates going to be paced slower with the updated process?

Ifusaso

Just remember guys; DC makes at least 75k a month. The average indie game developer makes 1k to 5k/p month. If he really wanted to release the update and stop stringing us along, he would have hired another coder but he's a shady fucking con artist and would rather collect the money from horny idiots who have no pattern recognition in their brains. Happy new year DC! Have a shitty 2024!

Luke

Cool, let us know when complete 100%. 😀

Matt

It's feeling like we should do a whole new playthrough once this drops. So much has been remade!

Nicholas Franklin

These updates are going to be amazing

Your local Cholo

Happy new year DC & Team!

Reutermo

Hopefully it'll be done by the end of February
