VN Ren'Py Summer Scent [v0.6.5a] [The Naughty Captain]

[Ottoeight]

Am I the only one who thinks that the revised scenes in day 1 & 2 are worse than the "originals"?

Now the story premises feel phonier than before.

 

[Maviarab]

I did not understand one moment, the first time MC has sex with Nicky, she seems to be a virgin, but there is no blood, and in general no way this event was not played, plus she being a virgin takes birth control pills, the question - why?

The game is just trying to realism, hence these questions arise. Or is there some kind of catch, something I missed?

*sighs*...ever heard the phrase, better to let someone think you're an idiot than to prove it?

 

[Anteron]

Who is Nicky?

Agreed, it's hard to keep names straight, especially if you're playing multiple games - and when ones go a long time between updates and/or certain character aren't in all.
Also, when you're no longer young and have memory issues.

(Imho) Adding all the GoT references to the game to hint "incest" was unnecessary ...
GoT might be ok as a starter to discuss incest with the girls.

On the other side when the game will be finished probably nobody will remember GoT ...

I must admit that I don't know if they are worse or better. I didn't go back to the beginning of the game because I don't need to. I think many players do the same. Therefore, I believe that such corrections are just a waste of time and resources.

I did, because I played the Sancho-modded game, and now the old "modded" saves make the unmodded game crash.
Unless Sancho updates his mod, anyone who played the modded game has to restart from scratch.

No, they don't...

SaveFixer:
(Using SanchoModded saves in an unmodded game)

As with any mod, once you create a save file with them installed and later play the game without the mod installed your saves are borked. I've got your back. If you uninstall SanchoMod and later play the same or updated version of the VN un-modded I can make sure that your SanchoMod save files are unbroken. Simply download the following, extract the file, and place it inside the title's "game" folder. It's an extremely small file that only insures that the Python calls and variables introduced by SanchoMod won't interfere when playing those modded saves with an unmodded game (pretty cool, right?)

I used this too. Works great.

And not everyone watched it...

Don't know if the modders, compressors and other folks that do work on the back end of VNs "know" each other outside the board, but do you know anything about Sancho, or know someone he might have worked with that knows how to contact him or knows what happened with him? Heard he might have had something happen with a storm, but it wasn't Beryl - he disappeared at least a week or so before that. We did have a couple of bigger "non-Tropicals" hit before the hurricane, but they didn't seem to hit the part of Texas he claimed he was in. I'd hate to think he's no longer among us, rather than just MIA from this place.

Unfortunately, with the way the internet is, we may never know.
If he hasnt been in contact in months, which Sancho would give a heads up if say, a storm wrecked his rig, he is most likely no longer with us or locked up, and can't see the second part being likely.

That's a common myth and misunderstanding by males ...

Blood means that the man is doing something wrong during sex and is hurting the woman or that the girl/child simply is too young to have sex with a man. Most virgin adult women usually do not bleed during "consensual" first sex if they are well lubricated and relaxed. And in current modern times most women probably have used fingers or toys before first sex.

Note :
It's not like that the hymen would seal a woman until broken since how could a woman have her period (monthly bleeding) if she is sealed ?
"During puberty, estrogen causes the hymen to change in appearance and become very elastic." (wiki)
Characters in legal games are 18+ years old so there should be no virgin blood unless the woman has the rare case of an abnormal hymen and then her gynecologist would probably fix it before first sex.

Best talk to your gynecologist for more details ...

I totally agree with you, but we are playing a game, and such myths or misconceptions can basically work. Because if we go deeper into realism, every game, I emphasize - every game, misleads about the fact that a woman's vagina stretches because of the size of the penis, but it's still a game, and we know what such a technique is used for.

In the case of Summer Scent it should have been explained somehow, maybe the MC's reaction is the same as birth control, on the other hand, maybe that's the developer's plan?

Who is Nicky?

I played the game in a different language, so I don't know what the original name sounds like. My translator translated it as Nicky. But if it makes you feel better - Niki.

OK here is my Review Rant

No official review yet, maybe I'm missing something and maybe it's just me.

3/5 (maybe 4/5)

I did a blind playthrough (As advised by the game) and the game turned from pleasant into a nightmare in an instant.

To be on the save side, I'm going to put the rest of my rant in spoilers

Spoiler

The game is actually not bad otherwise.
The girls are awesome.
The graphics are good
The story is interesting.

But I feel that a bad ending, especially that bad, should not be caused by one wrong (And not very apparent) choice.

For me it's just bad design.


End of rant!

It has been explained. Both the birth control and the blood.

Can someone point me to how the 'Lifeline' feature works? It looks like it could be scrolled but it doesn't work? All I can see is DualLove, EveLove and half of EveSub?

View attachment 4248829

I can select only one path at a time, so maybe you did something different that you have multiple paths on your screen?
You can switch the shown path as you like, eg via preferences, anytime ...
If you play Eve Sub Love, you won't be able to do Dual Love anyway ...

 

[bigdaddymaks]

Who is Niki?

Sorry, in russian it was translated as Niki, I don't know why, it's not for me) Her original name Eve.
Usually they don't change the name when translating, this is the first time this has happened, that's why it was misleading.

"Women don't usually bleed after their first time nowadays, at least in developed countries. Most of them wore away their hymens by about age 12 from normal activities (sports, bicycling, etc.)"
