VN Ren'Py Ripples [v0.6.0 Public] [Jestur]

[Vortex@]

The game asks if you want to enable pregnancy content. Not enough in-game time has passed in the modern era for it to have come into play yet, and there is only one instance in the past era where it would even be close to applicable yet.

when does it ask? does it ask when you start playing at the beginning? I can't remember if it asked me. i don't see it in options

At the very beginning when you are starting a new game.

Oh lord, I might be passing out bad info here because you are right. Think I got it mixed with Eternum. My bad, apologies!

Wicked shirt Tiff! I saw that tour in 1994 (Pink Floyd - Division Bell) It was fucking EPIC!!! Still have that shirt too!



Gonna call this though, MC is the father of all his friends and will never save his father because if he did he will never rail the Holy Grail of this VN, Tiffany!

I've got to say I think this is one of the best all round VNs, renders, story, sounds, all are great.

Hey, is it actually possible to sex Skylar after the car ride anymore? I got it before no problem, but now I can only get the thighjob.

As I prepare to start my replay, I have a question.

I assume since the ice cream scene features both Daphne and Krystal, that saying no to Krystal early on means I lose that scene. But do I completely lose any option for Daphne? Last I played, before the remaster, I seem to remember all interactions with Daphne were in combination with Krystal. While I like Krystal, I have others I prefer above her, and if being with her might interfere – there's no harem tag, but there is a Harem points tracker, so maybe I can have them all – I'm happy to skip her. But I haven't made up my mind about Daphne.

My current main interests are, in approximate order:

Skylar
Alyssa
Jessica
Tiffany
Darci

With everyone else following in no set order.

Now, I'm expecting like many games where harem may not be possible, I can play with anyone I want to a point and then I'll have to start making decisions. Which is fine if that's how this one will work.

Will pregnancy be a feature in the game?

I can only guess, but I suspect you go 20 years in the past and have 20 year old friends for a reason...

Will that version still force me to say that pineapple pizza is delicious though? My idea was to buy it there since I hate patreon and I want to support the game, but now I'm thinking twice...

Pineapple pizza is always optional. Also, you can't buy the game anywhere. It will always be free. You don't need to pay any money if you don't want. You can donate money on itch if you want or you can support the project on Subscribestar or Patreon.

That was part of the remaster. The only way to get the penetration scene now is to play the older version.

Will the rest of the episodes would get remastered?

I was just joking with you, chill. Yes that's what meant, about supporting and not "buying". I simply pref itch because I simply hate Patreon as a platform. It is sad though that due to HS it can't be on steam, otherwise I would already bought it (unless I didn't need to be a millionaire).

I must correct you though, pineapple pizza never is optional. It is a crime.

Everytime I see this theory on this thread:

Damm. The ice-cream scene was my favorite part of the game. That scene is not even that explicit to begin with. Feel more like a censored remake than a remastered.

Ice cream scene is still there and has never been changed.

So if you didn't play the last update because (no offence) but stuff remakes, do you still need a new save.

If you didn't play the rework, you need to start a new game. Sorry.

I love the game, but the animations run like crap on what should be a very well within spec laptop (Gigabyte Aorus X7Y7, i7-7820hk, GTX 1080, 64 GB DDR4 3200MHz of RAM). I'm getting 250+ ms max frame times according to renpy (but a constant 30 fps), so the animations looks like a slideshow. The game uses practically no RAM on my system (500-600 MB), doesn't even raise my GPU above idle usage and clock speeds, but MAXES out the CPU. I know that 7th gen is not the best, but a quad core i7 should be more than capable of doing some simple decompression.

What gives?

I'll be release a light version with the public release with compressed vp8 30fps video, the new Renpy 8 is a CPU hog when playing videos. Older generation CPUs struggle sometimes.

You can also try to hit Shift+G and change the fps to 30 or change the renderer. I hear that fixes it. Sorry for the inconvenience.

There also seems to be some solutions a page back.

Holy hell downloading that first file in that quote and replacing the game's lib made the Darci animation at the beginning of Ch. 5 go from a slideshow to an actual animation. I hope anyone else who has problems with this goes and looks at this person's solution!

Oh wow, that's great. I will check this out.

Not if the developer's word means anything, and I strongly believe that it does.

The remaster was done not just to improve renders at the opening. There was a bunch of stuff done under the hood, as well: the engine was changed to Ren'Py8, which kills the saves; new persistent variables were added; some of the content with LI's was made more of a slow-burn.

I did try that with a game (maybe this one, maybe another) and it didn't help me much - might just be the crap ass laptop I'm stuck with right now. There's a third setting that seemed to work a little better, but I can't recall what it's named - more of a "let the CPU decide" kind of setting.

Any difference between love and lust?

I know I'm a bit late, but finally playing version 4.6. Very disappointed in the nerfing of Skylar's scenes. The sex scene on her lunch break was one of my favorite scenes in any VN ever. I understand the dev needed to slow the tempo a bit, but that one hurt.

Also, I haven't had any issues with the animations, and I'm running an ancient 4790k. Is that only in 5.0, or anything after 4.5?
