JEEZUS FUCK THAT ENDING. That went into a dark turn, is there a "good" harem ending?
There is, of course. I think you're supposed to go after both girls, in fact.

Check my walkthrough.

A message to everybody:

I put a "special warning" in my walkthrough at the beginning of day 5 in the Eve love + Cassie love route: therefore, if you messed you can avoid the bad end in time, this way.

Yeah I went in blind, and wanted to try to get any decent ending. I failed. HORRIBLY.

Aight, just played this. Enjoyed it. If you're interested in some feedback, here's what I got.

I liked the environments, well done.

The girls are attractive and more natural, they avoid the "uncanny valley" vibe that can come with extreme hourglass figures that... throws me off a bit. Just me, I understand some people like that.

Most of the dialogue is good, a bit of it is framed a bit awkwardly. That's probably because American English is the way it is and we say things a certain way. We also speak a bit more... how do I put it, succinctly. More direct and to the point. Less wordy.

I understand there's a variety of things that can happen in the story, I stuck with a walkthrough to get the positive harem route. It's in the nature of these games to not make it obvious if one is going down a dark path, I get it. They're going to be arbitrary. So, if I have any complaints about that, it's more with this genre than with this particular game. Even great games like Witcher 3 are guilty of this... like with Ciri endings and how Geralt handles those - not obvious at all how most dialogue/action choices may change her endings... except maybe where Geralt is counting the money for finding her... anyway I digress. I've made my point.

I'd like to see these three... maybe even four... end up happy and safe, so there you go. That's a huge positive.

The male MC isn't totally clueless. I'd probably like a bit more self assurance and assertiveness. I'm not a fan of the hapless and clueless male MC. It's way over-done in a lot of games. That doesn't mean the MC is always right, he doesn't have to be a male "Mary Sue". It's probably an interesting balance to find in game development or story-telling, where you want the MC to be challenged and also interesting.

I don't necessarily have to have more control over anything. I'd like to see the sex scenes get animated, like BeingADIK or whatever. But if that doesn't happen it's not the end of the world. The last scene between the three was very well done for what it is.

I'm not a *huge* fan of expedited reconciliation - like between Josie (Josy?) and Maya in BeingADIK. They're having all these relationship problems and they get involved with the MC, then in one meeting they reconcile, whether the MC is involved or not. In this game, Kelly gets forgiven pretty quick, it's kinda the same thing. But I get why these story/character choices may be happening, resources and time are limited and you devs may find the need to just keep things moving. I get it. It's not like the end of the world, just a nit pick.

This is, of course, all just my opinion and preferences and I don't expect anybody to cater to them and I totally respect developers making the game they want to make. This is all said with respect.

Anyway, cheers! And have fun working on this or other games!

There is way to much "inner thought" dialogue for my liking.

Don't get me wrong I really really like games with well written stories and even some inner thoughts dialogue to give more depth to characters.

But damn, The MC just needs to shut the fuck up with his constant inner thoughts and sometimes constant negative thoughts. it gets very old, very quick.
It gets to the point that I end up skipping like half the game trying to get past all the negative and/or thought process dialogue of the MC that it virtually becomes pointless to even play the game in the first place.

slight exaggeration: it feels like there's only like 500 spoken words in the whole game while at the same time it feels like there are thousands and thousands of inner thought text, its a little much. the game ends up as some sort of fantasy game from the mind of the MC, half the time I feel like I'm just clicking and clicking just waiting for someone to actually say something lol

This game looks promising(Great story, Great renders, Great fetishes) but it's so hard to weigh through the excessive and constant amount of inner thought dialogue

i respect your opinion but I disagree with you. the MC thoughts are incredibly realistic solely because they are like that. those are the thoughts of somebody who realises what a dumbass and jerk was to somebody whom he thought only bad stuffs about and none were true (i am talking solely on the love routes). what i love even more is that it is nothing cheesy (like i see in some tv series loool). don't take my reply as a sign of disrespect towards you. every person has their right to opinion. it is just the eay how i would feel if i would be a jerk towards smebody and realise it was all for the wrong reasons

If you had let your sister down as badly as the MC did, you'd be thinking about it quite a lot. Even more so when wanting to bang said sister that was let down.

GTBALL_BALLY are you sleeping :unsure:



Dev Update #82

I also reworked the way I light the "dark of the night" scenes.
The heavy blue tint is gone and moon rays are bleeding through the blinds. This should make these scenes more readable.
I have already written that in these scenes only the general outlines are visible. Personally, I do not understand why, in principle, the author makes people break their eyes, trying to see what is not visible :cry:

So, pals,

I DID PROMISE A WALKTHROUGH... and now... here you are!! Summer Scent 0.55 walkthrough guide.

50 pages, 15 full paths... it took me a whole week. So enjoy and please don't complain if you run into a few typos.

I just want to add this:

the more paths you play, the more you enjoy the story.
Thanks for your work on this, I think this is one of the more complex games to do a walkthrough for - the dev himself thought it would be very difficult to do one! Have to say though, I do disagree with some of your assumptions at the start about how you're "meant" to pursue both Eve and Cassie and anything else is a mistake. The Eve solo love path is one of the best I've played of this type and it promises to only get richer. I think what you perhaps meant was that there is more side-story on some of the other routes, which is true, but I would say only true for the moment. Anyway, thanks again for the time and effort with this.

Well, my commentary is just my own opionion :) .

Anyway, the Author stated that every decision will lead to consequences: you can make bad decisions that will lead to bad consequences, sooner or later, but I think that there are bad decisions and wrong decisions, here. There are differences between wrong decisions and bad decisions, I guess.

Dev Update #83


The rework of all the sets is going on.
I've spent the whole week working on it. The kitchen is done. I'm pretty happy with the new set. That's the biggest set I assembled to date and it took quite some time to put it together. The other sets will be easier to rework as I don't plan to rebuild them entirely.

I also reworked the pool and the upper hallway. The sets are similar to the originals, I mostly reworked the light, crafted and selected some better props, and corrected a few mistakes.



I'm currently working on Eve's bedroom. The light is done and I added a few props. I still have to work on a couple of custom posters and her bed (I'm sure we can agree this is an important component of the bedroom).
I started streaming through Discord. For now, The stream is opened to Sailing Masters and upper tiers. It's mostly me working silently with Daz. maybe I'll become more vocal in the future. I won't stream any spoiler content, so you won't see me working on the actual scenes, but working on the sets, the characters, or bonus and random renders should be regular. Let me know if you find that kind of content interesting.
It's time to vote for April exclusive bonus renders. I'll publish the poll immediately after this Dev Update.

The quick sum up :
  • Day 6 Part 1 will contain 14 scenes.
  • Scenes 1 and 2 are written.
  • Scene 1 is posed.
  • 4998 words, 31 shots are posed, 31 are rendered.
  • 4 environments have been reworked, 7 more to go.
  • I'm currently reworking Eve's Bedroom.

You can follow my progress with this

Thank you very much for your support!

WARNING/CAUTION/DANGER
Please pursue with only one unless you want to get them raped.

I want above sign to be on preview page. don't get me wrong i am absolutely loving this one, and it's still in early stage. I just totally went casanova from the start, mind you i was expecting something unpleasant when Cassie caught mc with Eve and her reaction was pretty reasonable as well but i didn't expect that dark though at least don't ruin the character in early stage. I thought DPC was less subtle with acting lessons, but i am having second thoughts now.
Or I'm missing something and that's how story is gonna progress who knows.

The throuple path is reachable, and the bad ending avoidable. Search the forum, or follow the walkthrough posted in the OP.
It certainly is my friend, no question about that, and to further clarify i played walkthrough mod version. My question was mainly about the crude handling of Cassie after that scene. If i was one of the member of Dev team i would have definitely recommended him about that event as a another opportunity for solo Eve path with slightly (more slightly) less dark Cassie ending (if at all it is).

I mean by mistake or whatever once you got that Cassie ending, it becomes totally unfair game afterwards, as you play it once again or on to different routes you start to feel more sympathy/love/care towards that character, its like uneven advantage before start of the match.

Works as intended, then.
