VN Ren'Py Summer's Gone [S1 Steam + DLC] [Oceanlab]

[soprano31]

Does it even matter? PPl have no expectations towards this dev at all. PPL in this thread jack off to a random zoomed in Bella render and make up more stories in their free time with the characters than the dev did in 6 year of development.
6 year of development and 7k render count coming up in 2-3 months and the main protagonist still can't get his dck hard.
With the steam release he ripped off his own patreons and toke more money from these clever individuals. While you can't even call his other "game" a game too,other devs with half a year work progress a story more than him in 6 years on 2 games. Again no expectations... fans are happy with a pretty render and fantasize about it till the next dev update.

If you consider ch5 disappointing, there's not really much point extrapolating from numbers for you is there? I mean, a lot of people enjoyed Ch5. I'm not going to argue about the rework, because that's been done to death, and everyone's made their own mind up about it. Suggesting it wasn't work that took time is just a way to say, "why isn't Ocean creating the content I want, sooner?" You're effectively saying that only the content you want to see matters. Well, S2 Ch1 is supposed to have content for all the LI's, even the ones you're not on the path for. Either you like the game and it's potential enough to wait for the update or ....you don't.

Pretending that nothing happened in development is just ridiculous. Ocean dis spend 2024 doing things. That's when the rework was completed. Again, whether or not you like the rework, Ocean did it, that is actual dev time.

Regarding WiaB, well, the WiaB log is interesting. We'll see how soon Ocean renders that last scene, seeing he's anticipating being on postwork by the next devlog: 1 scene and animations left. But since he's gotten the work station he's been able to do animations while setting up other scenes. Also, old Wiab was around ~4500 renders before Ocean restarted. So Ch4 nearly has the same amount of renders as the whole original game. I can see the value in the rework of that.

Both of these updates will be the biggest updates Ocean has done in any of his work. If you can't wait to see if there's any content you'll stick around for that's completely up to you.

Agreed. One can argue whether all that extra non-story-progress work is worth it or not. But one can't argue that it was work.

After jerking off to a Sock Puppet with Bellas Face on it.....!



I don t give a furry craps behind for doing so. Its worth it...



If you don t like Oceans work....there s a simple solution : DONT PLAY IT!!!

Glad you told me before download it
I'm wondering why this game got high rated with no sex scenes ?!
even if it has a good story, in the end we are in porn games forum

Don't get me wrong, it doesn't have sex scenes but it's definitely worth it playing. You get so invested in the characters that you don't even miss the sex scenes.

Can you tell what AVN is this?

I've got the feeling that this game has mini sex scenes just like WIAB

 

[LHDLLB]

It doesn't have any sex scenes at all. But honestly? I'm not even looking forward to them. If we take WIAB as an example, Ocean is quite bad at making sex scenes. WIAB has a couple but they are quite boring and short. The animation is pretty bad too.

I talked about it once, Ocean does know how to write sex scenes, but those so far in WiaB are routine sex, exception the gym scene, is natural they are a bit boring.

Well, the queue is unrendered. Once they're done, he'll have 4890 done of the 6000-7000 renders anticipated. But he can now do animations on his old computer while setting up and rendering, so there's a whole lot of performanc gains.

Based on 60 renders per night for both games (give or take), that queue will be done in ~ three days. To reach 7000, there's another 2100 renders, at the same rate, another 70 days beyond that. So I'd guess Ocean's aiming for May, and based on current numbers, that's plausible. If he gets more renders set up, he might get 35 a night per game.

One can hope that when WiaB finish rendering it will also speed up SG development as all the renders can be SG, so we go from 30 renders at night to 60. Plus animations and post work, I still am thinking June is the more safe bet.

Ah, it is this time again.

Ah, it is this time again.

I blame the full moon. All nutjobs supposedly crawl out to the full moon to go full nuts.



I know it's actually waning already, but I consider it as an aftermath. They've already ran around during the full moon and are now gathering to lick their wounds and... other places.

Don't expect acceleration, it won't happen. Ocean doesn't have a lot of ready scenes for SG rendering. He himself writes that he renders only at night. The workstation doesn't render in the morning, afternoon and evening... it works only at 25% of its capacity.

It is only fitting to bring out Ash since more Deadites are crawling out of the ground...

Cheers!!

It does not matter. If he renders 60 render per night in 40 SG and 20 WiaB, once WiaB is finished rendering and is in post work he can use this time - I assume- to render 60 SG per night, thus speeding the process. And the same when SG is in post work he can be doing only render for WiaB Ch5.

You contradict yourself. If Ocean is going to do post work for wiab, who will create scenes for SG rendering? Where will 60 frames come from for rendering at night?

tell me sweet lies Ocean! sweet lies!

Summer's Gone, by the time Summer comes back everyone on this thread will be gone from the world.

 

[Perfect S]

Out of curiosity I've decided to check back on this after a long while and wow; Despite no updates to the game, there have been 1000s of posts feverishly discussing girls/headcanons and whatnot while shutting down any criticism.
Cult-like behavior from a game that barely has any content. I'm impressed tbh.

 

[Massagecook01]

fans say they love summer's gone for the story but ok lets talk about the story what is it ? the MC/Nika misses his childhood sweetheart because she went missing and in doing so he has emotional damage and psychological issues which causes him to have ED/erectile dysfunction. which i say is pretty damn funny/sad because the MC/nika is surrounded by sexy and beautiful women all through out the game. so even if they wanted to jump his bones he couldnt act on it, kinda like what bella wanted to do and she even offered to beat him up to see if he would get hard ,which playing the MC in this game is kinda weird because every AVN most of us has played the MC is a giga chad stud unlike this MC. so summer's gone is special what kind of special i leave that up to you to decide.

Someone rolls out another old 'barely used' user id to drop a dime...

Always nice to be able to add another one to the list...

Cheers!!
