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

[Jestur]

Of course the content isn't moving along, I've confronted Jestur on Discord about this very thing. This is one of the reasons why he wants you to start from the beginning, very little has been done and quite honestly, as long as the Patreon money keeps rolling in, where is the motivation? I stopped my Patreon membership 2 episodes ago. It won't be until members give him an ultimatum on progress will anything actually happen.

What do you mean the content isn't moving along? And confronted me about what?

Would you rather have me rush the story? The whole story for Ripples was wrote before I started episode one. I know exactly where it's going, and I don't want to rush and do a bad job. Yeah, some episodes I wrote turned out to be too big and had to broken up into two episodes. This episode being one of them. And I do have motivation to complete the story, if I'm being honest. Honey Select is very limited in the tech side and production side. I would love to move on from it. So I will be happy the day the game is completed and I can use something else.

And it's not a once a year release. I took a month off after the last release and I moved to another house and a bunch of things happened and I had trouble getting my computer room all together so I basically started development close to January. So it took me only like 7 months and we did like 2-3 of testing and proofreading.

I'm sorry it's not up to your standard, but I'm no expert at this. This is my first VN. I worked hard on this release. It's tought to make everyone happy. I'm just following my script I wrote a long long time ago. I thought it was a great update myself. It's essentially only part 1 but part 2 will come soon enough.

Well, I just wanted to clear up a few things. I read through the comments and it sounds like most people are enjoying the update. And appreciate all the kind words. It's really means a lot to me. Thank you for playing and I hope you'll all enjoy the rest of the story.

Jestur. I feel personally attacked by the toe-socks content. That was directed at us, wasn't it?!?

Also : Needs more Darci. Obviously.

Jestur, you are doing the best of all jobs, and we all love your work, absolutely. Not worthwhile to get angry at someone not worthwhile.

Hi all my compressed unofficial Android port of Ripples with Naxos LightmanP Walkthrough and patch mod.
Usual gestures, save name/delete, seethru textbox, resizeable game and dialogue text.
Scrollable textbox - no more text off the bottom of your screen
Alternative persistent saves/log location
**Special Instructions:**

Install apk.
Grant storage permissions on first run!
On first run you will get a prompt to copy the archive.rpa file to documents/Wills747/rip.ples/game folder.
(game will quit now)
Copy the archive.rpa file to the directory indicated in game.
Restart the game.
Keep in mind if your default install location is an actual SD card and slow speed this may slow the launch.

Also, keep archive.rpa. I'll use it for future updates to minimise the apk size.
If you have archive.rpa for Ripples, you don't need to download it again.

Nice update! Look forward to the next one! I wonder which girl(s) you're going to bang at the party?

All of them, right? All of them.

 

[Marshall343]

I'm liking the game
I only really have 2 things I wish could be different
the first thing being that you're locked out of either Jessica or Skylar's routes depending on which you choose (I am selfish, I want em all)
The second thing is that I wish there was a dom route for Riley's bedroom scene, like all the way through, maybe even basically the opposite of what we got where at the end of the dom route, you could have the choice give her some control for a final scene

 

[housekinokuni1974]

thx for the good work time to redive into this

 

[UnoriginalUserName]

All of them, right? All of them.

The correct answer is actually Darci.

However, I guess since Darci is included in "all of them", you're still technically correct.

 

[Pitrik]

The correct answer is actually Darci.

As a thank you for saving her mother?

Ripples grows in my eyes with each update, when I started playing year ago, expected just another porn game in a sci-fi setting, and now it is one of the best projects in the genre with good writing, alive characters and amazing level of visuals - Jestur really squeezes everything out of HS2.
Scarlett won my attention thanks to this update and occupies the top along with Skylar.

You're not the only one. It was probably one of the most saturated episode in terms of story. It also confirmed "locked in time" concept, where if something happened in the future (2019) it cannot be changed no matter what you do in the past (1999), which is crucial for understanding plot development imo.

Yeah, some episodes I wrote turned out to be too big and had to broken up into two episodes. This episode being one of them

It's essentially only part 1 but part 2 will come soon enough

That explains why there is no cliffhanger at the end of the episode

People like the one you responded to have almost certainly never done anything creatively or technically demanding. I don't know what's involved in making these VNs, but I have read enough to see the difference in quality between ones like Ripples and Eternum and most others. I also know that production schedules on anything creative and technical can be unpredictable (from personal experience and observation). And even if one or two people here and there manage very predictable schedules with consistently high quality output, this is an anomaly. I'll take consistently high quality output over predictability and speed any day.

I thought it was a great update myself.

Wrong. Not just great. This was the best chapter of all so far.

And don't listen to such people, the Zone is full of "special kinds" who constantly whine, bitching and complain that "the dev is bad" because the devs don't make the game the way that users want.

You're not the only one. It was probably one of the most saturated episode in turms of story. It also confirmed "locked it time" concept, where if something happened in the future (2019) it cannot be changed no matter what you do in the past (1999), which is crucial for understanding plot development imo.

This is similar to "fixed points in time". If we know about an event that happened and go back in time to undo it, we lose the reason for going back in time and not doing it... the paradox loop of travel to the past. We violate cause-and-effect relationships as the main law of the universe. Of course, if our knowledge about the universe structure and time is true.

 

[Takkatakka]

The correct answer is actually Darci.

However, I guess since Darci is included in "all of them", you're still technically correct.

The correct answer is Jenny, though.

Just wanted to ask is this a harem game or not I tried searching but got some said yes others said no
