VN Ren'Py Ripples [v0.7.0 BETA] [Jestur]

[Don Sucio]

Guys, I was thinking of downloading Ripples in a couple of days, the question is, is it worth downloading now or is it better to wait for the update?

In my opinion now is a good moment, i mean, there is good content and i would say you will be busy for some time playing it, but if you want to wait you can do it of course, the new chapter is supposed to release before this summer if i´m not wrong,maybe around May or june? (I´m only guessing, not believe the dates at 100%)

The saves should transfer. Just do it now.

Personally I would recommend you to download it. The story is very engaging, the characters are likeable and quite a lot, and you'll need time to process the references as well. You can speed run it but I don't recommend you, I believe that even playing with ease you'll have plenty of time to play it until next release.

I would only recommend for you to wait if the next patch comes out before you end the current content, but unless you reeaaaally are slow playing that would happen. I'm not slow when playing VNs, but I like to play with ease if the story is engaging with the MC. If that's your way as well, then go for it.

I'm pretty sure she, along with Jessica will be one of the last ones for that to happen. While many don't, I believe a fair amount uses the incest patch, and to make the story somewhat believable the relationship needs time to grow properly. Sure incest in games is cool, but if not well written it can definitely ruin a game.

Being family members for the sake of being family members isn't necessarily a good thing, what makes players hooked to a game is the character/story development along the connection of the girls with the MC.

Take a look on Shelby for example, I didn't like her at all at start, but after what happened on last 2 patches she started to grow up on me. Because, as I mentioned above, character development. I love Ripples for many things, but if there's 1 thing I can praise more than once (besides the girls being gorgeous), is the fantastic writing in character development.

Just say it has a helicopter ride. Instant sell job.

It does have pineapple pizza though, and even a scene forces you to admit it delicious if you want to have full points on every girl. I can't cope with that, literally unplayable.

Thanks for the answer! Basically, I play slowly, I don’t like to rush through the passage, many advised me this game, so I think I’ll give it a try, my question was just like you said, it’s better to wait, maybe there will be some patches or suddenly there will be problems with saving, like this happens sometimes with some games, so don't have to go through it later... I think you know what I mean)))

As I said above, I also don't like to play rushed if I like the story, but I guess what's slow and what's fast to some may be different to others.

To the speed I play I have more than enough time till next patch, and I don't think I play slow (unless the story is boring which it isn't the case, except for the pineapple pizza scene), but the decision is yours of course.

Anyway, even if you play it now or on next patch, I definitely recommend you to play it. Top 5 in this website by far to me.

I dont even know if an update is on the horizon or not, but I'm gonna replay it next just for the hell of it.
the story is good, the animations are superb, and the characters are all totally lovable.
given your other tastes: you'll enjoy it

Okay guys, you convinced me, I'll try! I have to finish one game before I get to Ripples! thanks

The last update was the beginning of March, and Jestur is in the same realm as Digi.B and Caribdis as far as quality and effort, so anything between August and Nov is reasonable expectations.

Yeah - I nearly came to a full stop right then and there.

I have noticed a trend of pineapples in AVNG and heard of games having repeated pineapple mentions..Do you think that's like a subliminal nod to the swinger/swap lifestyle? I know an upside down pineapple is a signal between lifestylers to let others know they're in that lifestyle without saying it.... maybe the pineapples everywhere have to do with that, or maybe I am just reaching.

Does anyone know how many episodes are there to be in total to complete this vn?

Or the show "Psych" is very popular amongst VN Devs.

Same, and in the end I kept playing the game with 1 less point on her.

Nah, I believe it's just a small effort from devs to please gore enthusiasts in their games. This game does have the "graphic violence" tag for some reason.

I think it's a not-so-subtle nod to the asinine online meme war between people who like pineapples on pizza and people who don't

What exactly does the incest patch do?
I think I skipped through a lot of the early dialogue so I didn't know she was actually the character's mom - I thought she was just a really close caretaker lol.
