The infamous "tech update" poll!

Nice

surajit majhi

We should of just voted the Rhonda update

jonah liautaud

Lol, 3-4months. This didn't age well...

Kisses

Honestly, I have been waiting for Rhondas update for a good long minute

JF

I am patron and I can't download it

Josip Zilic

Most definitely like the idea of voice acting. But that would take some some time and money. But still like the idea of voice acting! Or we could take our own film company start there. We would have to ask DC for his right of Summer time saga to use it for our project. Mostly like for animation. I wouldn't use it for actual porn stars. but porn animations.

WitchHunter1750

Makes sense to me.

Jay

Well she knows you since you were kids and comes across as a very desperate for attention. I think she should refuse you after the first "stall scene" until you refuse *her*. She could go further the second time just to keep you interested. You'd then need to say "bye" to her a few days, coming back for even hotter action and so on. Make her an unbridled no-limits slut for you, basically. Not that this is my idea of what a relationship should look like, but we don't have that in the game yet afaik, plus it fits with what character exposition there is so far.

André Ewert

It's way too much work vs. how little it adds. And it limits the artistic freedom since you can't change voicelines for free. Lastly, your character name is user-defined text.

André Ewert

You're not wrong, but pregnancies add a bit of realism that would be sorely missed. Let me put it this way: if you were to play a fighting game called kung-fu warrior, you'd have absolutely no issue with everyone in town knowing kung-fu or other martial arts. It's part of the genre. But if there was no blood, injuries or danger of fatalities in the game, that would stick out as unrealistic.

André Ewert

Would like to hear some voices also. 👍🏻 Plus, how well does Judith have to know me before I can nail her in the stall?

Joe Schneider

I'm looking forward to the updates, it's a fun game! "WitchHunter1750 Honestly, there should be voice acting in game! Who want voice acting??!! DarkCookie should hire some actors/actresses for the characters. Though, I'm not sure if DarkCookie will go for it. " It would cost money in less he/she gets them to donate their time.

SirCuddlesWorth

Okay I put mayor Rump in jail so I guess I'm done with most of the main story and now I'm just kind of banging his annoying but cute wife and daughter. Who is going to be the new mayor? What if it was some nice sleepy old guy in cool shades named Ryden, and his hot cougar wife is Dr. Lille Ryden and she takes over as principal of the school after Mrs. Smith, retires to spend more time with her kinky satanic cult (and your magic dick)? Mayor Ryden of course wouldn't really be asleep while you are doing his wife, he's just pretending so he can watch. Oh and the mayor's son Fisher could show up and hang out with the captain on the dock, but they wouldn't really do any fishing, just drinking tequila.

AS

Honestly, there should be voice acting in game! Who want voice acting??!! DarkCookie should hire some actors/actresses for the characters. Though, I'm not sure if DarkCookie will go for it.

WitchHunter1750

I love the "you have a sex game we’re nobody gets pregnant is unrealistic" comment. I bang my landlord. I bang her daughter. I do the neighbor too. 5 girls at school and a sixth gives me blowjobs. I bang my landlords best friend and her strange cow friend too. Four of my teachers, the lady at the car salesmanship, the pizza lady. I have threesomes at the beach, I do the mayors wife and her daughter. Oh, and my maid and my bank connection and some I've forgot - and none of them get angry with me banging everyone in town, including impregnating a bunch of them, but no backlash at all, they are all cool with that.. Yeah, realism is what we are aiming for here..

Thomas S

Pregnancy can be turned off with that special pill... Like many fetishes - anal, facial, oral, watersports, humiliation, BDSM, spanking, etc... Pregnancy is just a fulfillment of those of us who find the fantasy of spreading the seed, breeding every fertile woman, and making lots of babies hot as hell. Yeah, it may not be your kink, but for many of us, it's either sexy and erotic or just a funny and fun aspect of the game. Nothing wrong with playing the game and using the sperm killing pill to avoid pregnancy. The same as my own preference of avoiding facials and anal - I personally find it atrocious and gross, unsexy and you could say "limp-inducing?" But I know some people find it HOT and jizz their pants at the mere thought of it... Same can be said for many who find breeding and even childbirth erotic. Every animation and character is something DC has to spend hours and sometimes weeks on perfecting. The choices DC and the team must make and have made are in response to these comments and their own personal interests. Sometimes against their own personal preferences, but to satisfy the fans and players who keep coming back and cumming back for every tiny update.

Xoandre Moats

You should add Connie the Hormone Monstress to the game :D

Jeff Black

@KeithWilliams I gotta say that I agree. If there's no pregnancies, it wouldn't be as exciting, because you're free to do it in the game. I play this game to get away from stress of the world, and this game does fill my needs, all kinds. I can relax at this game and have some fun. The reality is, that with pregnancies in real life, will have child support. And that's not good a thing. In this game, you're free to impregnate all women, even at the same time, without real consequences. So, this game is a breath of fresh air. And it's better than any other games I played.

WitchHunter1750

not a fan of all the pregnancy hype either. but maybe Dark Cookie will surprise us with something unique...wouldn’t it be interesting if you could get every female pregnant at the same time and it opened a special player mode or special arc...ah fantasy, isn’t it great

Skeeta_bite

Listen, the fact that you have a sex game we’re nobody gets pregnant is unrealistic it adds no dimensions to the game. Argument can be made that all there is is the pregnancy and not the child support that comes afterwards or the fact that the main character can get everybody pregnant they have like two dozen kids and that’s not an issue with theGaines female interaction because best believe if you have 20 kids every woman in town’s gonna know about it. But I digress I like the dimension that pregnancy gives to the game.

KEITH WILLIAMS

@Skeeta_bite That would be true if he was making the game for free. Thats not the case though. Imagine a company not telling their investors when a product would be finished. That would never fly

Skadi

Agreed 100%, pregnancies shouldn't be a priority

Skadi

i dont have any kind of fetish towards pregnant girls but i impregnated anyone i could in the game, just think it's funny af lol (sorry for bad english)

Les Perdants

I'm right there with you Biff, I don't understand this pregnancy craze either.

Kenney Hill

Lingerie too.... maybe the yoga lady just asks to rip her crotch open... debbie had a nice outfit too!

Matthew

Glad the update won out; as others have pointed out, it will preempt many future issues. Just a comment - I've never understood the fascination with getting all the female characters pregnant. NEVER. How is that sexually exciting? Now, obviously, I'm the one out of step with everyone else since all the other players seem to think it's like, the best thing ever. Guess I'm the outlier. Gotta say it, though - I'd much, much rather have more sex scenes AND different kinds of sex in those sex scenes, than all the pregnancy sidebars.

Biff Edwards

wanted to ask if the cave in forest will have harpy-girl or dragon-girl eventually or if the cat at graveyard can changed into half human for more furry action or if your limiting it to Daisy for now not really looking for direct answer but the nest in the cave hints at some thing so spoil a little please

ironninja920

You don’t have to start over with the new updates

Jamal King

Look up PogonaArt on deviant art

Jamal King

We ought to have a comic based on Summer time Saga!

WitchHunter1750

Thank you for your kindness MiaXMi. Did not take offense.

Skeeta_bite

You already don't have to start every update from the beginning if you take the gift save you know? The fix is to adapt the screen format of the game to phone. (and add more space in computer).

dragonangel59

I have one question only, will the new tech update have anything to fix it so we don't have to start the game from the beginning on every update?

Frank

Dark Cookie is the only one that produce good game. All the other game sucks that the developers make.

WitchHunter1750

I really want some more sex scenes with trans Eve. For me she's the best girl in the game

Jimmysim

Last time this was proposed I voted for the "more content" option, but there is so much good content now that my vote is for the tech update.

JMULVY

A little part of me hopes its 5-8 more scenes for all the girls aha

hugh murdoch

The logical thing to do is to perform the tech update before the content update. would like some new locations and the Multiple sex scenes and animations to existing stories (5 to 8 new ones) sounds like a plan to me...

Dai Bevan

Skeeta_bite thanks for your reply and from the sound of it you took offence. None was intended; I remind you we are funding this enterprise unlike apparently you. DC is asking whether we want the improvements or get Rhonda done first. I say do the improvements as I see most do as well; however, like with any business, you expect a project timeline. If we all stop being patreons, will DC do it out of their heart? NO.

MiaXMi

If you do the tech update I really hope one of the new scenes is for the music teacher

jacob

Not sure why you say “Dark Cookie needs” to do anything. The very nice thing about this whole process has been we get to see it as it built, test and use for free. When he says it’s ready... it’s ready. This vote is not a contract, he is just asking for our opinion. It’s his game, he gets the choice.

Skeeta_bite

The only logical thing to do is to perform the tech update before the content update. Should the content update be rolled out first, its content would have to be edited again as part of the tech update. But if the tech update is activated first, then you have the basis on which all future content updates are based and you don't have to touch anything twice.

Hamian

Just the "save compatibility" improvement is reason more than enough

Pedro

Of course It Will delay Judith. Its an entire new patch before Judith. But its an important one, so be patient

Pedro

As long as it doesn't delay the Judith update, I'm good with either.

Crabmiser

Tech update then pregnancy for debbie, please?

Spacewolf 2

콘수엘라와 그녀의 딸들 네명이서 하는 것을 원해

지훈 김

Do the tech update. Any time you can get addressing tech debt into the build cycle you absolutely should go for it.

Michael Bielski

Rhonda can wait a bit longer, so that she’s at her best later.

Kach

Get it done, however, Dark Cookie needs to provide time line for this with deadline and drop dead date. I think all of us agree, no open ended date for completion. Do it, do it efficiently, like a business! Should give us new date for Rhonda release if we agree.

MiaXMi

if it means faster deployment of updates then im all for it

OneSuperSheardy

Love the game, I would love more content but I agree with tech update.

Chad Fields

Tech is obviously the best choice.

Fang Sway

Grace is the hottest girl in the game, bar none. Need more content, badly. So badly.

Spiff

You had me at mult sex scenes to existing stories

transcendedrobyn

Save longer hold up further along. We still get a few extra scenes (debbie & diane plz..) . Win win. Current udate Just get it done asap plz lol

Matthew

Tech would be the better move

Michael Long

Hi DC, are you considering to add some kind of follow-up scenes set after pregnancies? Even just dialogue lines where characters aknowledge to having had a baby together, ask/tell how the kid is doing, etc. Thanks!

Fabio G.

quality before quantity

albin johannesson

i really want to see rhonda update, but i know alot of tech, it will just give even bigger problems for you guys if you hold it up, so i will vote on the tech stuff first that could make future things even better and less bugs go for it bro

Do it now, no matter what!

Brandon Shane

Technical debt only gets worse the longer you carry it, better get it done now.

Timeyy

The tech update is worth the wait. It's better to do as early as possible now. By now the game has reached its half-point mark, so the art assets reworks and tech updates would be done by half as it is now. If the tech update is postponed again til the end of the game completion, DC team would've hell of a lot of assets to retouch.

LifeIsLemon

The wait it worth it, this is an already really great game, but I am also hoping for more scenes in eves direction, i am really in love with her, and cant go an update without playing her route. I just feel like there is missing a bit in her direction, maybe a scene on the school or at the players home. Maybe Even do some more about the babies you get

janus mathias vestergaard

And here another 5 months are gone

Ether

Tech is always important!

Tech update for sure, if you plan on adding more locations down the track & trying to fit them all into the existing size map would just make the map look weird

UnbarredCaesar

definitely tech update. but add pantyhose upskirt scenes, pease

smackline

Sooner the better! I suspect future releases will either come faster or have more content once you do the infrastructure work!

Bil Mor

That wouldn't change much on the windows would it? I think the tech would be better in the long run that way you would have to go through all the scenes when the Rhonda update is ready to go

Truman Woody

Just the mere possibility of more Grace content is enough to convince me! 🤤

JP

Fully agree, this update may not be "needed" but it's very much 'wanted'. Better to get this done now so the project can be smoother down the line.

Kutharos

I'll vote for Tech Update in the hope of new animation(s) for Grace. Maybe get some mileage out of Odette's plans to get in Eve's pants. Felt unfinished. Need resolution.

Spiff

This is the most vital of questions. Need more Grace. The bits where she tries to hide that she's into the MC are adorable. I need more. And Odette made promises damn it! Eve story is best. All must bow before Cute Emo Girl, her Hot Older Sister, and Tig Ol Bitty Goth Probably Vampire. ... Please?

Spiff

Fix thiss already great game! Cant wait to play over

Eh ren

The Tech update seems like a no brainer to me. Sounds great.

Ashley Morrison

Expansion of the map to include outlying "hidden" regions will allow for new locations and I imagine a Deeper forest area (maybe even leading into a mountain area on the left edge?) New creatures and perhaps some DAISY relatives hidden in the mountain mists? would be cool to see... Yes, refining the underlying structure of the game will make it a more solid and stable platform to expand upon later.

Xoandre Moats

More work now for less headaches later. You have a great product, and we will be supportive and patient while you make necessary adjustments!

Nopenope

after 3 month 0 task on the dev tracker are done for the code.... a tech update is very scary ^^' did he back from holidays XD?

Mars

I'm gonna be honest, I was convinced you guys wouldn't be able to think long-term and mindlessly vote for Ronda's update so I am pleasantly surprised! Roll on the tech update - please God let it make regular updates faster.

Jamie

Tech or Bust!

-Zee-

Work on the Infrastructure of the House before adding more rooms.

Ulysses

yeah its best that the tech issues are done and over with for a long time after this

Jackyice

O>O where's kevin's and eric's bathroom prision rape scenes though? jk

TheShadowKnow5

Lets get this tech update out of the way, sounds like the game needs the maintenance

Nicholas

lets sort it out before we start on the new stories, it make sense.

andy

Fix the guts before the updates.

Todd W

I believe that Tech Update for 0.20.8 is unquestionably the best direction for the Summertime Saga. Tech Update will also make Rhonda's story update go more flow more smoothly for the Summertime Saga. Earl is Rhonda's father and Jackie's husband, so how does MC keep from becoming Swiss cheese? Knocking up the daughter is one thing; knocking up the wife can be very bad juju. I am not impressed with the rollout of the MC story part two; when the full MC story part two gets published, I will start the Summertime Saga from scratch. So I can get a smooth flow of the Summertime Saga.

Geoffrey Drumheller

Definitely tech updates. That way, future updates will also probably require less man-hours.

Ihsan Batughan Yilmaz

Yeah, in this way the future updates can be worked into the new format for once.

Nicolás Córdova

I'm really glad most of the community agrees that getting the issues out of the way now is the best course

Hector Rivera

Time to take it widescreen!

Alex Taylor

Might as well get it over with. I got plenty of other games to keep me happy until all of the tech stuff is fully implemented.

Gray Metal Fox

Yes tech update is the way to go for now

lurchxx

Let's bite the bullet and get the house in order! Sounds like it'll be better in the long run.

Chromakey

Will the Rhonda updates be included later? Thanks for the info.

morris ridgeway

We all wish new content, but I think also it would be better to fix this now. If it would not fixed now, it must be fixed after next or over next update..... But we also know: 3-4 month :-)))..... double this and we are in the target area ;-)

Stefan

Haven't had bad play experience to date. So, the tech updates seem unnecessary in my opinion. Would prefer to continue on with the story. Added scenes with the existing characters that already MC has relationships with is redundant. Fresh material would keep interest going.

Brett Berry

tech update. as much as I'm drooling over Rhonda and Cassie, best to get it done and out of the way instead of fixing it later.

wulfman75

Both of them? Or just the Pregnancy?

Mizino

He's been trying to do the tech update for ages and thank goodness we finally get it

Boba Fett

KEEP PEPE

Alex Fitzgerald

Yeah I think a tech update will be the better choice in the long run and tighter testing will be great instead of all the downtime in between each update would be amazing

MyLittlePengu

They're in those servers you got banned from

Nomoneynohamburger

Tech Update, and please don't waste time on more pregnancies!

Jon

Yes I agree doing the tech update makes sense after the main story is done.

Aaron Wilson

Definitely GO TECH!! 🤪

EnSayne

Fixing problems now would lead to better updates later down the line.

As a programmer in an enterprise environment, I'm always irritated that we forego maintenance and infrastructure prep work for more user facing features, because that stuff needs to get done and the more you push it back, the harder it is to do it. Get the tech update done and out of the way. It's been long enough, frankly.

RHar

I reaaaaally don't care about wide screen. It seems kind of useless in a game that is cartoons. But the faster update cycle is cool. Plus a bunch of extra sex scenes with characters is dope. So tech update.

brendon faulkner

Tech update ftw! Get me off this bike and into the Blue Falcon STAT

alt-f4 support group

Tech update please, if that by any means includes currently updated renders for Debbie then I am all for it, as well as other characters

bruhwereinacarexhaust

Can we get rid of some of the Pepe the frog art please? Thanks for the great work you do (other than the pepe stuff, that's just gross)

Ivan Dominguez

I am Most Definitely in favor of the Tech update as I believe a More Dynamic and Stronger game is in Everyone's Best Interest! 🙂👍

Paul Beck

It’s ok as it is

Paul Simpson

what will take longer? i think we need more stuff to do before we update

Luke Oates

TheShadowKnow5

Okay, annie's mom can wait ... give me the tech update. I really need more scenes with Jenny and Roxxy.

Koreano120

I second the emotion on save compatibility. I want my progress in the game to be unaffected by installing a new version.

Thomas Witt

I want this tech upgrade, but if Roxxy and her friends don't get some scenes Ima be salty lol

Promanco

Please also adress to the save compatibility too, redoing everything everytime is lossing its attraction.

Shas'O Dal'yth Kauyon Kais Taku

Sounds like doing the update first may shorten the overall time required to get both done...I say take the pain of the update now to augment the current game and make it faster for all future updates.

Michael McLaughlin

I've been looking forward to Rhonda's story for awhile but the technical side of things is always more important if u ask me.

Ricky

I would really like to see a Rhonda update almost as much as I would like to see a pregnancy for Roxxy. Despite that I voted for the tech update. It seems to solve more problems and offer more long range benefits with only a delay in the Rhonda story.

DramaCoach69

Tech Update. if done now rather than Rhonda, then the update will expand and give you new space to work with in the future

Francis MacLeod

Oh damn, Rhonda was my favorite, but I just had to vote tech update.

Sygkopaais

So that means the next update will be out by like March or April and then the tech update will take another 3 or 4 months correct

AJ

If you manage to get to the Dr doing research in the basement of the hospital for the pills that increase you chance of getting someone pregnant, there’s another one you get that makes it impossible to get someone pregnant too.

Biggie

Agree the Tech Update next, and while I am enjoying the gameplay/animations/etc when are you going to implement gay scene(s)? I know that isn't the main demographic of this game.

Kyle F

Will there ever be anymore Odette or Grace scenes like the 0.20.6 update?

Denis09

i think the content of 0.20.8 is enough to satisfy our hunger (story-wise & lewd ofc) for the next 2-3 months. Based on that the ''Tech Update'' should come after the 0.20.8 to smooth things with the future content. As you said the Bugs/issues will also be decreasing which is also like a plus. Im guessing also that the Rhonda Update will be lit after the Tech one.

Paris

@DarkCookie, not even 50%?! I would have bet money that it was at least 60% done! Thanks for the dedication!

Blaedus

Tech update is much better, sometime some options are too small because it does fit on the phone

Seeburrun Shivanand

I dont really care about Rhonda so fix the game please.

Robert M Kern

@DarkCookie, lol, true. Ah well, "good things come to those who wait," as the saying goes!

Blaedus

Can Pregnancy be a toggleable feature? Like we can deactivate during a playthrough?

Ale

May as well get it fixed sooner rather than later.

BoxerB

If the tech update also holds the possibility to give Mia and Eve more sex scenes, like say a missionary-leglocks position, then I'm say, yes let's get the tech update done.

Strategist G Bu Shi

@XxXO-OXxX, ah ok, thanks for explaining. I held off voting until I understood what was what.

Blaedus

Yeah but she never won any polls for new content until recently! That's why.

DarkCookie

Agree, the tech update brings a lot to offer too, besides, it will be great to run the game in widescreen devices!

Leslael

Indeed!

DarkCookie

Np!

DarkCookie

Possible. I will be making another poll to see which characters should get the new animations.

DarkCookie

If I use a tablet not a laptop or desktop to play on will the tech upgrade still work for me

Kendall Newburn

@DarkCookie, it boggles my mind that Judith is one of--if not THE--first character that the MC can have a sex scene with, yet her update is so far down the line. Man, I hope it's worth the wait. Mind-blowing, in more ways than one.

Blaedus

Best to do the house cleaning before adding a new room.

Tchernobog

Not even her Mom!? ;P

DarkCookie

That is a ton of benefits from the tech update while including new scenes as well, I see that as a win/win! Rhonda update would be great but would only add more to be updated when the tech update is done anyway.

BlackIce963

Yes, the plan is to obviously add new content but also make sure the game runs smooth and users have a good experience. Especially considering the game will keep on getting bigger ( we're not even done 50% of the entire game).

DarkCookie

Do the tech and add Judith and Rhonda together afterwards. Thx for the open poll question!

Jemini

Will the old choppy scenes get updated in the Tech update? Such as Debbie, Ms. Johnson, Aqua etc

Lokela

It will be more entertaining playing Rhonda's storyline with the tech update already implemented, let's go for it! Tech update.

Kevin Salazar Briceño

Indeed!

DarkCookie

i'm not a big fan of Rhonda so i will go for techupdate

Lazyboyz1458

The tech update is so much needed for myself! With every update I have downloaded I have come across so many issues, and not sure if its because I use a windows computer or use my android cell. It makes so much since for myself at least to vote for the much awaited and much needed tech update. I have to constantly Uninstall the game and reinstall it while also loosing all my saves in the process. I haven't reached out for help, cause I have been hoping the general populace here would vote for the tech update. Love the game Dark Cookie and crew...thank you for letting myself and others be apart of the whole building process! I give you all major respect! Sincerely, one of your ever growing fans!

John Martin Jr

Yumi is part of Mia's story. Veronica is a minor character but may have some sex scenes added to Diane's story in the future!

DarkCookie

This is actually something I wanted to originally add to the tech update (along with a whole phone UI rework), but it added too much dev time to the tech update and chose to push that back a bit. But it's on my to-do.

DarkCookie

To have more game to play sooner I think would be better for all

Kendall Newburn

After reading the information before I vote, I rather update the “tech update” first then the story (that is Ronda). That way, we can have less PROBLEMS. That is logical and correct way to proceed.

WitchHunter1750

No. 0.20.8 is the final update for the main story (Russian mob and what happened to MC's father). The update after this would either be the tech update or Rhonda's update.

XxXO-OXxX

Stop!

DarkCookie

Couldn't the tech update also feature adding pregnancy dynamics to the girls that have completed story lines (for the most part), but dont have pregnancy built for them yet? Such as Roxy and the "landladys"? Perhaps maybe move all the names and references to a standalone file so that if we wanted to we could edit how the main character refers to people?

Mizino

Where are my Yumi and Veronica?

Raffovic

I can wait for Rhonda, I want tech update for better experience for this H-Game. So far my favorite H-Game, waiting for Subvers to come out.

MadxWorld

IF this is the majority of the main story done, now would be the best time to do a update of this nature, especially since we all want more content and this should make it easier to add new content or update pervious content. Tech update is the right call.

Kogen

Tech update will make me look foward for rhonda

Nelson

add more muscular girs

Ariandel

Oooo say less 😌

shony55

tech.update

martin nix

@DarkCookie, is the Rhonda update not the 0.20.8 update? If so, then the first choice for the poll creates confusion.

Blaedus

I will make a poll to see who everyone would prefer and pick the top choices!

DarkCookie

It is more important, but I still felt like giving the player base a voice.

DarkCookie

My brothers. I've waited so long; that bathroom stall haunts my dreams

Mike

Yes

DarkCookie

Give me the tech

Greg

Yeah, I keep rereading to see if I'm missing something.

Blaedus

You said 5-8 new scenes.... for who? I mean I still picked the tech update... but still who tho? lol 😃

shony55

Would love to see the Rhonda update but the tech update seems to be more important, so i don't mind waiting.

Carlos Sánchez

How so?

DarkCookie

Would the "added sex scenes for existing characters" ever include the option to have sex with some characters while they were currently pregnant?

Nocturne

Let me get this straight tech update means faster updates in the future so the faster we get to judith well sign me up

Allen

Your Judith is in the bathroom stall where she belongs 😤

Nomoneynohamburger

They both seem like the same choice by the way they are worded. The reason is because it seems like the 20.8 update is the Rhonda update. So you say after 20.8 or after Rhonda update.

Robbery1211

She's coming too! Annie is after Rhonda, and Judith after Annie. So: Rhonda > Annie > Judith

DarkCookie

Lucy is clearly the best choice

RockandGuts

Tech update!

Doug Haussler

Exactly where's my Judith

Melophobia

Rhonda? Nah, man, I'm waiting for the Annie and Judith update(s).

Blaedus
