VN Ren'Py Summer's Gone [S1 Steam + DLC] [Oceanlab]

[BobTheDuck]

Firstly, Summer ended up with the Petrovs not without Leia’s knowledge. All this was done in Leia's interests. Yes, Sasha’s similarity to Elena is obvious, and for a moment I refused the Summer-Sasha version, but then I realized. Summer was under the care of (Katie?) and they couldn’t just kidnap her. The kidnapping had to be legitimized. Apparently they decided to marry her off as the Petrovs’ daughter. We don't know what happened in the cabin, but Summer may have been hurt worse than Nicky and needed plastic surgery. During the facial restoration, she was made to look like Elena. Thus, Summer disappeared and Sasha Petrova appeared.
Well, about Inessa. She's not so much a bodyguard as a warden. And she protects her from unnecessary contacts.

In this scenario, what do you make of Ayua's moment when she touches Sasha's scar in the basketball court while they're warming up, and says "I know you don't" (give up)? The familiarity there implies Ayua knows about the scar.

Also, in this scenario, who is looking after Summer in the flashbacks, if she is only a Petrova after the cabin? If Katie was, Nika would recognise Katie from before, like he recognised Emilia from his childhood.

I'm not saying I agree, but I'm willing to understand your thoughts.

I just assumed that Summer's guardian was Katie. This is caused by Katie’s sports suit, which ended up with Sasha, and probably Katie came to the reading club to see Sasha in particular, and Nick and Summer were a pleasant bonus for her. But I don't insist. I’m also not sure that Nika ever met Summer’s guardians. Perhaps he heard about the unflattering review of himself from Summer. We'll see ))

Oh and the things about Nika being viewed as trash - in the flashback it's Summer's aunt who said it to Elsa. THe one one I meant was when he takes Vic for a walk after the kissing session, so he did meet them face to face:

d "Normal is what made Summer's parents resent me."
scene ae850 with dssa
v "Don't take it personally."
scene ae849 with dssa
d "They told me to my face that I was nothing but shit."
scene ae852 with dssa
v "They obvi-"
scene ae851 with dssa
d "I know Vic. I know that I'm not shit... I know that they were the trash."
stop music fadeout 3.0
d "But still, I would've made peace with that trash for Summer."

Also, how do you fit Elsa being Summer's cousin into this mix?

The sport suit isn't a one off - Nami has one of the same design as Katie's test one (Nami's gymwear) in the redone basketball game (preview in a recent dev log) and Nadia has the same design but a different colour as Katie's when she was at the gym (Nadia's gymwear). Nami's one suggests Katie did get her collection funded, she's not just the designer for ZPR. I'd say it's now a common sports suit and Katie is producing her range of fashion like she'd hoped.

Katie's first one wasn't necessarily her own design, so it might just be something fashionable, seing Nadia and Sasha have the same one 20 years later - and no woman would want a second hand stretched smelly gym suit to wear, especially if Katie's team were getting backshots

Well, Nami and Nick consider Noji their mother. So why should Summer-Sasha treat Katie differently if she raised her? She also considers her a mother. Accordingly, Leia is her aunt and Elsa is her cousin.
Well, about the suit. At wiab, Katie tells Willie that she makes her own clothes. Therefore, with a 99% probability, the costume was designed by her herself. And you answered your own question. Katie gave Sasha a suit from her first collection. Such things in fashion houses are in the foyer in glass display cases so that visitors can see where this company began. Katie gave away one of her most prized possessions. And she could only give it to the person closest and dearest to her. In turn, Sasha, as you say, wears an old and perhaps not fashionable thing, demonstrating closeness to the person who gave it.

What I was getting at is that Summer's parent's told Nika to his face that he was shit, which I've copied from the script - so Nika knows what Summer's parent's looked like (or who he was introduced to as Summer's parents), regardless of who Summer thinks her parents are. So for a timeline of looking after Summer, do we have:

A1) the parents Nika met (Monica?), followed by
A2) Katie and then
A3) Elena

or do we have:

B1) Katie, who told Nika he was shit, then
B2) Elena

If it was B, why is Katie interested in Nika now, and why didn't Nika freak out when meeting Katie at the book club, knowing her as Summer's mum? If A, then Elsa's mum can't be Leia, as it would be Monica's sister or sister in law that is Elsa's mum.

If you look at the links I posted though, Nadia has the same design in the final season 1 rework, it's not an exclusive thing, same with Nami's gymwear. There is nothing that identifies Sasha's gymwear as a handmade item, or from the first collection. I think Vic also has the same asset in a black in the rework, although the preview image was only neck up, so it might not be the full gymwear, but the same style as a top (obviously, because it makes no sense for he to be doing the same sort of gym classes).

 

[hermit_tr]

Until now, she was just a nameless character, right?

I hope she has a role in the storyline because Ocean made a special semantic rendering for her. Or Ocean is just pranking us.

Oh no, is she Charlie?

Is it me or does the thing on her choker look like an earring Nami or Sasha has?

I could be wrong,but as far as i remember,that Nika mentioned only one parent,not in plural.

What's interesting is that in the reworked version we can still see woman with dark hair in the cafe scene.Only this time she just passes by and is hard to notice her.

You did not understand me. When I say that Summer-Sasha is Nami's sister, I mean that she is Niki's twin. And this is a major reference to WIAB because SG gets its own pair of twins with the same trait as Willie and Leah. Namely, with a strong sexual attachment to each other.

yes, it's still in ch 5 beta, but I don't know whether that scene appears because I use the music mod or not.
the difference is, the scene is cut without showing the rendering of Vic and Mila.

I'll copy the quote from the script I mentioned earlier - this is from walking with Vic, maybe it happens with Mila too I don't know:

d "Normal is what made Summer's parents resent me."
scene ae850 with dssa
v "Don't take it personally."
scene ae849 with dssa
d "They told me to my face that I was nothing but shit."

The scene from the flashback in Relucia was about Elsa's mum's comments (about being trailer trash).

You did not understand me. When I say that Summer-Sasha is Nami's sister, I mean that she is Niki's twin. And this is a major reference to WIAB because SG gets its own pair of twins with the same trait as Willie and Leah. Namely, with a strong sexual attachment to each other.

I have considered that angle, and I don't discount it, but even still, my point still applies - was it situation A or B? If A according to your theory, Nika's own mum called him shit. If B, Katie called Nika shit, and Nika remembered who Summer's parents were, and would recognise Katie if he's seen her then.

For those of you who can dissect code, I would like to ask.
What values/choices can influence the appearance of evil Nami or puppy Nami ?

If I remember correctly, it depends on whether you kissed Nami or not at the end of CH4x5.
She becomes jealous af if you did.

Yes you're right.
After using ctrl:
If you kiss Nami, Nami puppy will appear. If you don't kiss Nami (the bottom choice (I didn't choose the middle one)), then the evil Nami will appear.

No news about the update??

No news might be good news.

Is there an updated android port

 

[soprano31]

Is there an updated android port

Made a compressed Android port of Summer's Gone Chapter 5 Beta with Scrappy's walkthrough mod.

Got some basic gestures loaded in: swipe up for save menu, swipe down to hide UI, swipe left to rollback and swipe right to skip. Save files are now stored in the Documents folder. This sometimes means that you may need to close and re-open the port after installing so the save folder is properly created.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues with the ports and I'll see what I can do to get them sorted.
