VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Summer of Love [v1.2] [Captain Kitty]

If you're looking for a game with lots of scenes with sharing/ntr/voyeurism, this is pretty great. If you're looking for a lot of emotional development and deep character arcs, this probably isn't for you. I personally really enjoyed this game because I like the kinks/themes involved but you should know what you're getting yourself into.

I like this game very much，because its core is NTR. It's my favorite one to play recently. Its modeling is beautiful. At present, it's a very low version, but the content is sufficient. There are different routes and different CG's. I'm optimistic about it.
However, the content I evaluated is modeling and CG, not including the plot. Because my English is very poor, I basically skipped it, but the plot of the Yellow game is not very important to me..
This is also the first evaluation I wrote.

this game has a problem that is the lack of emotions, I was playing on the harem route and I read a comment here about the NTR route being the focus of the game, so I went to play and man, I realized that this game also has no emotion, it is meaningless. The protagonist's girlfriend apparently is forced into a relationship with the protagonist, then she cheats on him with the teacher and scene where she has sex with him on the street, you have the option to stop it, the normal thing would be to have some fight and you can continue the route with the other girls in the game but no, what happens is an endgame saying ''you ended up alone'' so you mean that harem route doesn't make sense ? because you would lose Nina, who is a son of a bitch character but would have other cool and lovelier characters than your own girlfriend. Man, it would be a fucking ending Nina at the end of the game seeing a protagonist with a harem or a girl he loves and happy, while Nina would be left by the teacher, because he would have found another woman more attractive and so she would be alone.

after my explanation, let me give a less detailed version about this game in this current version ( 0.12 ):

PROS:
- characters are well done graphically.
- proposal of interesting routes.

CONS:
- plot script is horrible.
- poorly developed characters.
- small updates and not worth paying patreon.

Nice game. The renders are of good quality. The MC's girlfriend is great. The storyline is a bit thin. The dialogues, especially in the NTR route, are kept very flat. I have the feeling that the dev doesn't really know what to write. There is definitely room for improvement here. Personally, I like the Old Guy Route best. But here, too, important dialogues between GF, old guy and MC are missing for an NTR route. I hope that this will improve in the next updates.

Lets star this:

You live with your girlfriend, who is one the the decent looking models DAZ has, and you are both Yoga instructors (well, lack of imagination pandemic i guess).

For the first choice you are presented with, you can already draw the conclusion:

This game is focused on NTR and rewards you more if you play it that way, it is not my opinion. After making the Vanilla chocie of rejecting Kanye, the next scene is your grilfriend reading.

If you accept Kanye, in the next scene you look at your girlfriend body as she stands up, and then you can check her phone to watch a picture of her naked.

2nd and third day are pretty much empty for vanilla players, some interesting conversations about some Vietnam-main China, and some crotch staring. Apparetnly this is how the game is played, a repetition of days. 7 Days gone and interactions with your girlfriend are 0, literally, she spends the nights reading a book, doesnt even look at you, and dont do anything together for the entire weekend.

8th day you touch one ass, i guess being a yoga instructor finally paid off!!( ...lol)
At night your girlfriend offers a cum denial handjob, still doesnt even look at you. And here im gonna comment something:

The whole ntr thing is that she is supposed to be my girlfriend, but i dont know nothing about her, he is not even looking at me, he is not giving anything to me, so its kind of a boring character. Being this way, i couldnt care less who she is fucking, but i already picked vanilla first choice. As A result im stuck with some boring girl who doesnt have a single thing to offer. ZERO
For a vanilla player the main female lead is shit, worthless, i cant emphasize enough.

End of next day and it happens something that shoulndt, A DREAM and the MC doesnt know it is a dream, so this is the devs design, to subvert players expectations using MC stupidity and this is something i really really hate. The next the MC stupidity is once used to give you a blowjob, but another cum denial. We see the patern, the first handjob was cum denial handjob, next was a DREAM blowjob, and now a confusing kind of cum denial blowjob, cause MC thinks its a dream.
Choosing to make sex scenes after waking up is awuful, specially if you dont know if the dev will make it a dream, and specially when there is precedent. Adn this is aggravated by the fact that there is no transition to sex scenes, just these animations start playing out of nowhere, so how can you tell if its reality?

Well, things start moving on and finally i can confirm that sex scenes are animations with fixed camera position, an these animatons or 2 frame back and forth loops are average, nothing hot, camera angle captures the scene, but its a generic camera angle. There are sounds playing, but the dialogue during scenes is very default, there are no dynamics or anything.

When you are having sex and get interrupted, you get interrupted and thats it, no dialogue, no story, no extra renders for transitions, you just go back to default POV laying in your bed.
At This point the only good thing is the quality of the assets, they are good looking girls but in the default way, no clothing efffect, no special composition techniques or whatever so what depends on the actual work and design, is just there, poor at best. There is not a visible effort of making good sex scenes, doesnt make an effort of telling the story, not even telling some scenes so you know how we got there at least, the days are just repetitions fo the ssame dialogues and same renders, until something different happens.

Well thats it, a little messy review, but i kind of reviewed as i was playing, cause game is not really engaging. Besides some small background of the characters, that is like 1 or 2 lines, there is nothing about them, so nothing to read. I agree with other reviews telling there is no explanation or justiications for the things happening, and no storytelling or transitions or the most part. Soulless, yeah

One reviewer is correct in calling this a soulless game

The Good:
--beautiful renders of the female characters. The renders are the main reason I downloaded the game.

The bad:
--This is probably the worst NTR game I have ever played. There is no narrative reason for the NTR.
--In fact, there is no narrative justification for anything that happens in this game.
--The paths are there to appeal to specific fetishes and at no point are any of those fetishes executed with any care or story justification
--the game simply provides paths that mimic NTR, swinging, etc. In fact, if it weren't for the walkthrough mod I'd have no idea what would lead to any particular path.
--I was actually looking forward to the NTR path and was simply, mindlessly bored by it.

There is no eroticism, no real story, no justification for any of the decisions made by the MC. The beautiful renders simply weren't enough to hold my interest. I could have seen renders on a blank screen and gotten a better experience. The dialogue was actually a distraction.

Mediocre, soul -less game.

Story, characters, sex scenes, everything is built swiftly and without and passion or love.

Absolutely dull, lack of characters building, plot building, corruption or whatsoever...

Choices are meaningless in nutshell exiting like marriage sex on Saturday night.

Not bad for what it is. A bit dodgy at the start with the lack of chemistry with your girlfriend but it does pick up after a while. The dialogues flow well. Render is good. Ivy's path is a highlight. Looking forward to more content.

Adding in harem but there is little to no content. Maybe because its still early.

The NTR on the girlfriend especially Netorare part isnt atctually a NETORARE. Scenes are no different from Netorase itself, and that is a disappointment. Sure GF is cheating behind his back, but that invalidates the whole thing when technically he already knows what is going on yet he doesnt do sht about it and is just watching everything and "wondering" if its real or not.

MC is quite pathetic who cant figure out which is a dream and which is not.
Sounds like worse than a child.

GF is bland, emotionless, like a robot, no impact in her speech and actions.
She says she "loves" the MC yet I have not seen a single smile from her, nor a "I love you". Or even the pet names like "babe/honey" dont exist with them. Almost as if theyre merely co workers.
There is no valid pace to how she cheated as well, it suddenly, and very early just happened.
GF isnt worth to be with, that is what this game has shown.

"Indirect" clues are CHILD'S PLAY in this game's "Netorare" route.
Also men dont think if they wanna punch the guy, they act on it.
Only ones who do that are CUCKS.
How stupid it is to find it in "Netorare" route.

MC's cameras doesnt appear to have films or is always out of storage capacity to stock up an evidence against whatever issue he had from multiple scenes he already witnessed in "disdain" (pathetic tsundere pleasure). NETORARE my as$.
If that wouldve been the case in any cheating actual NETORARE game, game wouldve ended already as one of the multiple endings there are, EASY GOOD GAME.

Obviously this game never shouldve put NETORARE in if the dev cant see it through.
Because the game is going towards all SWINGING/NETORASE routes.
This dev needs some hentai to understand these simple terms in the adult world.
There are no stats and/or gallery guide either.

Love the walkthrough though, its organized and easy to follow.
Its as if, without it, the game would look like a complete mess where you can miss a lot of things without knowing or be aware of at the least.

Good NTR. Bad game.

I liked the game at first. I went with the NTR route and was positively surprised by the fact that your gf doesn't get turned inside-out by the first guy she meets on Day 1. There's a good build-up in suspense, because you know that something is going on but you don't actually get to see it. It takes a while before you catch your gf and until that time the MC only has suspicions.

However, once you do catch your gf, the game is only halfway. The days continue but nothing happens after that. You don't catch her anymore, she's not cheating with anyone else and you don't even speak or think about it. The game just becomes an empty shell. You click through the days but no noteworthy events occur anymore.

What's the deal here? I decided to start again and go with the sharing/swinging route, but it's exactly the same. The days go by but nothing happens. And worst of all, there isn't any sharing or swinging content. You just flirt a little with two girls that aren't your girlfriend, that's it.

And why are your stepdad and -sister introduced if they don't even play a role in the game? Your stepsis moves in, has a few shallow scenes and then moves out again, while 'Creepy Joe' is just sitting at the dinner table each night.

Long story short, this is what you get when you create a game without the slightest idea where it's heading. The story is going nowhere, most of the days are just empty generic summaries, there are three different routes but none of them have any substance, and half of the characters aren't even part of the story.

[0.8]
Run-of-the-mill VN with an average, uncharismatic couple doing other people and yoga. Bland-looking renders devoid of any highlights are supported by an equally unremarkable story filled with other cardboard characters who speak only enough lines to explain the next scene.

Kinks like NTR, voyeurism and cheating - even though elemental to this game and a trademark of this developer - become especially meaningless due to the impression that there's no genuine bond between the protagonists. They aren't given the time or facial expressions to share their thoughts and feelings as the game rushes from point A to B with no worthwhile filler material.

**A SOLID B LEVEL GAME ROMP FOR THOSE LOOKING FOR A NIGHTLY DOWNLOAD THAT HAS ADVANCED FAP PAYOUT CONTENT ALREADY INCLUDED, AND FOR THOSE AREN'T GOING TO FREAK OUT ABOUT NTR/SHARING IN WHAT IS CLEARLY A GAME WHICH FIRST AND FOREMOST IS LOOKING TO CATER TO NTR/SHARING CONTENT (which basically is what those 1 star reviews you see amount to btw)**

For starters, I'm not the type to go out of my way to search out NTR theme games. I'm basically neutral on whether a game is or isn't including it, as my focus tends to be drawn more to games that offer the most amount of enjoyable content without any real picky or demanding preference that it has to come in this or that *EXACT** variety. As long as the story is flowing along adequately enough to keep my attention, and the characters on my screen end up in hot scenes that offer advanced sexual payouts for my time spent playing...my likes are pretty flexible

So with that out of the way there is nothing really standout amazing going on with this one, but as a whole it adds up to be more enjoyable experience then most other B level games trying to do similar imo. Game is split into a variety of different branching paths that will lock some character progression options out, and to note while I ended up playing through both the Sharing and Full NTR paths I'd recommend the sharing route as that seemed to contain the most total content while still sharing more of the same opportunities for x scenes with the full NTRroute.

Story is pretty cliche basic, but written in fairly clear to understand english and which gives it bonus points for one of these games. If getting cheated on is your kink, I'd also say it does a better job then most with that in regards to it's gradual buildup presentation within the story as well.

Pros:

- attractive cast of female characters
- adequate enough job of creating hot and erotic scene opportunities
- a fair amount of already included advanced sexual payout content on multiple girls
- animations that while nothing special are still of the add to the experience level of quality.

Cons:

You'll want to follow the walkthrough while making choices to better ensure you don't miss any desired scenes, since some of options you pick aren't all that obvious on which of the sharing or full NTR routing direction they'll end up leading you.


In short as a game I downloaded on a whim hoping to get a fap out of my sit down playthrough, it was a win I surprising enjoyed and found myself more into then I initially guessed going in. Thumbs up with tempered expectations from me.

Where to begin? First of all the MC is a nobody without personality or balls, he lets everyone trample all over him, no question asked. Second of all, ALL the npc, apart from the two asians, are unsufferable, egotistic, and basically behaving like huge assholes, your GF included. Third problem is the "girlfriend" herself, a lame human being which happen to share a bed with you. She never supports the MC, gives everyone else precedence over him, and basically has got the personality and appeal of a wet towel. Last but not least, the "plot" railroads you so hard you'll get burn marks on your ass, I'm not kidding. "Playing" this '''''gAmE''''' felt like a chore, an useless way to waste hours of your life.
The only positive thing about the whole fiasco was the quality of the renders, and that's it.

Great start with lots of good options / routes, takes several playthroughs with different options. Great visuals, especially of main female character.

The plot and dialogue make sense and are suspenseful.

Hope to see this one continue.

well
i tried a lot games with diff storysetting etc
but this is by far the most boring one ,
heck ,theres not even grinding for w/e
you cant even call the gf a gf -- just a thing thats around for some reason lol
the yoga-sessions ... just a fill in
emma - the attempt to make her interesting with those fuckmachine is a air number,
its just annoying "going to camping"

nice try - but boring game

Positive
Renders are decent enough even though they look quite outdated and the girlfriend is pretty, but that's pretty much all this game has going for it imo.

Negatives:
The story is pretty much nonexistant atleast on the non-ntr path.
Dialogue are poorly structured and boring, its entierly devoid of emotion or depth.
Characters are pretty bland and void of any characteristics.
Sex-scenes are a terrible, and the MC's dick is the wierdest looking thing I've seen on here, does it have scales? Severe scarring or is it just made out of tried up and crumbling clay?

Conclusion:
I think the game leaves much to be desired in all areas.

Good ntr game. Didn't play the harem route. My favorite type of game is ntr and this has an awesome story in that regard. There is anticipation toward the reveal and when it happens it is very satisfying. The visuals are sparse but the story makes up for it. I give it a recommendation.

v0.4, NTR is not my thing I've only tested Harem route.

Pros:
- Porn scenes are great
- The whole non-consensual thing is really great
- The animation and the visuals for a game this size are nice

Cons:
- The story itself lacks of real structure

The renders are pretty solid for the most part and the overall concept is easy to grasp but it is just mind numbingly empty.

There is no effort to create a more elaborate story line. There are no transitions; we're just kinda pulled around here and there and couple clicks later, one week has passed in the game. We dont' have time to grasp what's happening and the plot development is shallow

There is also no emotion. Right now, it's just a massive clicking game - almost like a really long powerpoint presentation. There's nothing in the game that is making us want to know what happens next since there is minimal intrigue. The LI looks more reluctant than anything to do anything with the MC which doesn't make as much sense if swinging is meant to be an aspect in this game.

I hate to give critical reviews but that's just how I feel. The outside cake looks nice but there's very little flavor to it.

Pros:
-Nice renders.

-Pretty hot girls with somekind of variety.

-No "over-the-devs-head-complex-story".

- The Dev has a good feeling to write NTR-Scenes.


Cons:
- Please stop making these dream scenes. Get the bitches some "real" dick, not these "oh, was it all a dream?!".
For me, it's just annoying.

- On the NTR-Path, there is no chance to see whats happening with your girl when she is away.



Conclusion:
Dear Dev, keep it up. A promisfull start, but tweak some things and make the updates bigger.
