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

[BobTheDuck]

Yeah! I remember reading that theorie of yours some time ago (not so much), i´m down in that, it would be very interesting if that is what happened, and if i´m honest is one of the things more i want to be real in the futures seasons... That would be very well connected and would explain very well why there is sexual tension between Nika and Nami and why is a secret between them, because is a taboo thing...

About toxic girls then i´m happy, those girls like Melanie Ceril and Robin appears for the first time in the chapter 5 right? I didn´t play it so i don´t know who they are (or maybe is just my head and if they appeared earlier then i can´t remember them)

Yeah, I'm guessing it didn't go far before Nika realised considering Nami's a virgin, but it's still something to consider. This might also be why he gets so flustered when she talks about her lady parts.

If it's Melanie (she's just a person in the background at the moment), she was in 4.5, and her older sister appears in 5. Robin first appears in ch 2 I think, well, when you go the the gym the second time, but you go alone. I think she's there if you go with Nami as well. Kate first appears at the entrance of the college in Ch 1 as someone walking around, but we only find out who she is in Ch4.

Really interesting, if i´m not wrong Summer and her family comes from "the elite" of the social class right? Something like a rich family,so do you think her father hit Nika very hard for try to have something with her daughter like sex or something like that or maybe something different, like her father being very annoyed for something Nika did to Summer and hurted her

The story so far suggests Summer came from a loving, well-off family (the horde of cuddly toys she takes to Nia's birthday party, the way she's always very well-dressed, cousin Elsa's mother sternly pushing Elsa toward a modelling career, Summer and Elsa's families looking down upon and disapproving of average/ordinary Nika), although Summer did have a devilish, tomboy side.

Summer's father or family injuring Nika in a beating is kind of a long shot because Nika's flashback about the "violent incident" revealed he suffered two collapsed lungs. That would be one hell of a beating using some very heavy and dangerous implements.

It's both great and frustrating at the same time, that we have all these breadcrumbs of information but no whole baked loaf to solidify our theories. Anything seems to be possible at this stage.

Melanie Ceril sounds toxic and we haven't met her (I still think she's the goth at the pizza shop)

The Goth chick appears as a student in background renders of ZPR college hallway. Melanie goes to a different college and, anyway, I doubt students like Bella would countenance her being at ZPR.

Oh really? I missed that one - definitely not then. She has quite a great look, like the two readheds (Sasha's friend and the 'wrong' cheeto). I wonder if as a dev, Ocean creats some characters just to put in the back ground, so if he needs a new one, he can just pull an extra out from the sidelines? That would be a clever technique, because you end up seeing them the whole time.

I have a post from ages ago where I reproduced the renders of her both in the Pizzeria and in the college hallway, simply to point out that Nami was a bit too loud and indescrete at the Pizzeria, while Goth girl - a fellow ZPR student - was within earshot.

EDIT: Actually, looking back at those renders now, it's freaky how Goth girl always seems to be staring directly at the MC.

It's hard to know how meaningful her appearances are. Maybe Ocean simply has a limited library of Daz3D assets that he uses as inconsequential background characters and it's not even that they're supposed to be the same person whenever they appear. I don't know...

I have not played the C5 beta, I wanted to wait for the full release, and it's been awhile since I last played the game. So, I'm not really following much of the conversation here, but I just wanted to say one thing.
Summer is coming.
There, I'm glad I got that off my chest, please continue with your regular conversations.

Bella is not a mom.

I'd sure love to make her one......or three

Edit: Always wondered if they glue those "underboob" sweaters to their tits. Fabrics tend to either fall down or creep up.

I forgot to say in my previous post, that after that we will hopefully also be able to add Summer is cumming.
I'll leave you alone now.

Hopefully not! Her coming back would cheapen Nika´s (and some other persons) struggles.

While my two posts were jokes, I guess we'll see eventually what Ocean has planned.

Gotta laugh at gravity defying hair and the MC in 2 weeks went from scrawny to bulk.

I guarantee you that animations and music are more irrelevant than a puzzle that makes up a game, an example is F1 2024 that will be released, I guarantee you that you make up more resources than just videos and images, I was already forgetting the songs kkkkkkkkkkk

Well then, off you go and play your kiddie games

they look so young and vibrant like most of college freshmen looks like and after the retouches they look so much older without any shine kinda like a teacher just waiting for the hours to past so they can go home and start drinking .

I know that Ocean likes to spoon feed information, but how much further Nika's and Nami's, "pushing boundaries" , went is one of the things that has puzzled me. When talking to Amber MC tells that he grow close to Nami after the Summers disappearance, how close was that ? Then I don't know how much of this talk I can trust as per Nika himself, he lied and we don't know about what. In 4.5 we learn that Nami did something, something bad that took a toll on Nika and he fears that her behavior now, to him is not genuine and is born out of guilty, that add to other hints in Ch5 suggest that Nami was more than just mean in high school. Finally in Ch5 Nika speaks how every time that he reach's out to Nami she pulls away leaving him in the dark, and that if she does this again he will never speak to her again ( maybe this is what he has not talked to Amber ? ), this implied that something more than just platonic love happened before the beginning of the game, but only in Ch4.5 we have inner thoughts of Nika seeing Nami as something more than her long time Roommate, and Nami's reaction followed the kiss is not of something that they did once and promised never to again, is of someone who screw around and panic when found out .

With all this I don't know what happened, one hand seems that the kiss in 4.5 was when Nika took action and Namis panic, but later it is said that Nika took action several times and Nami pulled away, I have some theories about all that, but Nikas comment don't makes sense if nothing happened before, but Namis reaction don't makes sense if someting has happened before

Agreed. But we do know that it didn't go too far because of Nia and Nami's shower talk - Nami wants her first time to be special. The thing is that Nika and Nami have done something that THEY felt crossed a line. People put all kinds of absurdly inflated import on things because they know their intention was to lose control, but for whatever reason, in reality they didn't lose control. So in that sense, I believe whatever has happened before might have been more the feeling of crossing their boundaries, whereas now we see the intent is actually cross the boundary.

The thing of their deal could also be unrelated to their feelings, it could be over an event with Summer, and Nika lied to Amber about what happened. Maybe Nami did something that wasn't legal buy accident or maybe it was some of the things she did that made Nia think she was mean. This is at least one thing that won't stay a mystery. But I also think we'll find it's not a massive dark secret. It was a massive dark secret for kids, as adults it might just be gosh darn embarrassing. Stuff with the deal doesn't preclude Nami having done other things that might be worse that Nika doesn't know about though.
