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

[Machete]

Have you noticed its the VNs with a focus on high quality renders/animations and story and characters that take a while to update? Probably a bit of a correlation there.

Yes and no. I can think of some top tier projects that now are clearly stalling and the execution, while technically very high, start to feel lazy and uninspired. Sometimes crap projects take forever and when they are out the output is even crappier then the last time, which is not the case of Ripples, which has a fantastic story, sometimes high quality project release at a steady pace with a lot of content each time, but 4-5 years are a geological age both in the gaming industry and in the professional life of a skilled person. It's unlikely to think that a project can keep on the effort and the quality for such a long span of time. Just think about how many project got abandoned, how many had a sudden rushed ending and how many just go on slow an directionless. How few, instead, got to the end without

There are plenty of reasons to dislike patreon. The fact we have to caveat every discussion of the MC being his own father with "patreon wouldn't like it" is already enough reasons for me to never be a supporter.

I could afford to do more

You do more than 95% of people.

I'll subscribe to my favourites VN's patreons and get the official releases when the updates come out, but i can't offer that support that all year, i'll generally go down to the lowest level that gets dev updates. If i had more disposable income i would though.

I'm really fucking tired of the cynical bitching in this community

Fucking same.

You can tell the release is literally JUST around the corner when randos show up and everyone gets salty with each other causing some overly aggressive overlord to take a lawnmower to the thread.

I see 829 full animations, and 60 pseudo-animations (where images dissolve into another and back again) in images.rpy. I didn't check that they're all used in game, and I didn't check if there aren't more declared somewhere else.

edit: I spoke too soon. It's 824 full animations

5 less full animations. It's over, completly unplayable now. No wonder people come to complain saying the game is abandoned /s

No, people are saying it's abandoned since there's been no update in 4 days short of 8 months.

He's also everyone's father. Including his own.

That's what I said some months ago, going along with that theory, you're basicly telling that the MC is cucking himself. That's a new whole level of dedication.

I swear, as much as I love this game and it's girls, this is my outright favorite scene in the game, along with the later helicopter ride.

Even music is great during this scene. Never misjudged a game so wrongly. Turns out, when I used the gallery unlocker to first check the game out and get a feel for it, I picked the one H-scene that pushed my buttons lol.

Easily top 5 game now. Dev is awesome.

It's only impossible until it isn't.

Remembered and lol'd at this line as I played today.
