Naughty cap,
Here's the thing, i seriously don't mind bad endings, how much ever cruel they can get I'm all for it, provided you know what you did wrong or going to do followed by the consequences. And without any need of walkthrough at that.
I seriously liked your vn even more the eve character, like i said earlier you did wonders with that.
I for one didn't like the way you stacked that bad endings so here I'm bitching about it but there might be literally tens and thousands of such people who didn't like it but moved on and the reason; shocking bad endings which you can't avoid easily without playthrough.
If you could make it easier to sense the red flags, i mean that ending ain't catering any group of people but the consequences are sure repelling .
I understand your point of view.
I honestly thought that the warnings I've put in the story would be enough.
And I actually still think they are.
Both girls tell you not to play with them, you know there are two potential psycho/rapists lurking outside waiting for them, Jack keeps monologing that it can't end well...
I think it's more of an expectation issue.
You're playing it like a porn game, you expect an easy harem path or something, and when you hit the bad ending, you are disappointed, to say the least. I understand that too.
But the easy harem with obvious choices... that's just not Summer Scent.
I wouldn't even call Summer Scent a porn game. It's a story, with porn in it, but not a porn game. As such, it doesn't behave like a porn game and doesn't go by the same rules nor the same logic.
So I probably won't change the story to give any more indications, but I'm thinking about giving some more forward hints through notifications. I still haven't decided anything for sure but I'm thinking about it.
