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?
If you need the scenes for future reference (or spanks), look for a post I made last night - leads to a PH account where playthroughs of this game can be found - I think it is #17 in that list.

I don't recall how those two variable types are utilized in this game. Just about every potential LI has both variables. Usually, the lust points are used to signify sexual attraction, as opposed to, say approval or friendship.

In other games, the lust points are used to corrupt girls. I don't believe that's the case for this game, though. I don't sense much in the line of a corruption fetish in this game.
Although there are the two instances (Riley and the plant owner) where there is an "aggressive" mode (that I can't remember the name of now). I don't think it really does anything on the "points" scale too much, but I suspect it has implications for the ongoing relationship/future interactions with those characters at the very least.

I still have a pre remake copy of the game, but was just disappointed when I got to that scene in my new playthrough. But, thanks for the option!

Just wondering btw, after the scene with Alyssa in her bedroom, shouldn't you being in her route on the phone? I recall being on other characters route for a lot less.

That's how I discovered my first AVN. A walkthrough of Summertime Saga on PH.

My intro was an MxR review ... Freshwomen (the tag was basically "Look! That girl no-one wants to admit they know about is in this game!")

Now that's a name I didn't hear for a very long time. I even recall years ago being on his stream and giving ideas for art on the comments. The community in general was nice.

One of the best VN's I've ever played. Great animations compared to most vn's I've played which are just a bunch of 2 different slides. I didn't play the original so can't compare the slow burn of the new one.

And pizza with pineapple is very delicious.

You have to wait for the second time it comes into view (I think it's only two) ...

Saves before the ep1 rework won't work. If the save is from the rework, it should work fine. If your save from the rework won't load, post the error for me please. Thanks.
Yeah it's fine with old saves, only new ones that aren't working although my latest ones now are again.

Code:
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "renpy/common/00action_file.rpy", line 463, in __call__
    renpy.load(fn)
Exception: Couldn't find a place to stop rolling back. Perhaps the script changed in an incompatible way?

I just hope the MC isn't somehow his own father that would feel a little too predictable.

I mean Tiff was already pregnant with Jessica though ofc nothing precludes him going back even further.

Based on the photos we see it seems he is at the very least Alyssa's father and some time travel pregnancy will be hot as fuck but it shouldn't be every single girl IMO.

Very fun story though normally with time travel games I'm always itching to either stay in the past or go back to the present but here both timelines are equally fun.

Darcy is kind of starting to annoy the fuck out of me though. The way she acts like MC doesn't mean anything to her is getting pretty old. Like you want MC to see you as a woman but you are too much of a pussy to admit your feelings? Thats highschool shit and MC clearly has a ton of options. I wonder if we are stuck on her path at this point because I would love to drop her back to friend status and refuse to keep "practicing" until she grows up (which will probably be after she sees him with Dani or someone else - which again if she only does stuff like during their fight scene when shes feeling jealous or competitive thats not attractive).

Tell me more about these "secret scenes"...

Didn't realize this game had hidden things to look for. Do you have to play the game on the "Mokia" to get one as well? Never played that game in reality, so just skipped it.
