If you gave the yellow flower to Bella, this scene will come out when the MC calls Bella to warn about Vanessa.

I did, I got a different render instead of this. She's holding the yellow flower in that render too, but that render is not the same as this.

More like two confused heads made a deal that they're going to destroy it later.

Ok, now it's time to critique this AVN.
- It's still top-notch when it comes to plot formation and storytelling. The problem here lies in the dialogue. I believe that this issue can be amended by hiring a proofreader to polish out the dialogue in this AVN. Once that is handled, I feel the quality would increase significantly. It also helps better portray character voice and the overall tone of each conversation. The more English courses I take, the more grammatical errors I notice in English fictional pieces I read. Summer's Gone is filled with them. This issue has to be handled by chapter 5. By "handled", I do not mean releasing new updates with improved dialogue. I mean polishing the dialogue of the entire AVN. From Chapter 1 straight to the latest chapter. This is an issue that needs to be dealt with before a Steam release can even be thought of. But I'm pretty sure that Oceanlab has already thought of this issue, and has taken the necessary steps to deal with it. If not, he should consider this issue.
- The subplots are steadily increasing. I admire Ocean's ambitions, but I do hope that he does not go beyond what he can handle both mentally and physically. The last thing any of us needs is for Oceanlabs to overwork himself. His creative decisions aren't that much of an issue when it comes to how he forms his story, it's whether or not he can keep up with everything in a healthy manner. Summer's Gone probably has the most subplots of any AVN in its genre. I do hope that he paces himself in how he deals with this.
- Most issues in regard to art and cinematics are directly tied to lack of funds, time, and hardware. So I will not be too harsh here. But I did indeed notice many inconsistencies. I do have faith in Ocean's ability to fix these mistakes in the future, but several of these errors are visible. Not enough to affect my experience playing this game, but some of them are noticeable.
- There are several more areas where criticism would be valid, but they're also not significant enough to require any immediate attention.

I somewhat dread Sonya's character arc as I understand where iranians come from and what the culture and the people mostly are on about and have become, so I wonder how deep Ocean is wiling to delve into the matter as it's fairly complex but with simple understanding for the native or someone who has lived with them long enough to get the culture and principle.
Bella's story started out fast along with nami but meshed so well she needs to sit in the benches till others catch up.

I think this issue can be solved in the next chapter. Honestly, these two have one of the best relationships among VN games even though their relationship hasn't developed enough yet. I'm looking forward to the next chapter.

FUTA was never the topic from the beginning, only trans. But more about that below.
The tags here in the forum combine both fetishes, which is why they are often confused.
Odin73 The complete transcontent is scrapped and gone - for now. In the release post on SS/Patreon Ocean has mentioned his reasons for this step, somewhere here should the last dev post be leaked. If not i can repost it.
That thought has crossed my mind to. What also a possibility is, should Summer ever appear again, is that she is complete nuts and goes rampage on a raidboss level.

I did feel that it stretched on a bit at some points though, so I can see why people would feel that the resources could have been better utilised for other scenes. I agree about the whole Sonja thing, in fact I believed her growth to be the whole point of the tabletop adventure (along with nadia's development) but there was an impressively large amount of roleplaying and worldbuilding within said tabletop over character development. because of that, I'm not sure if that's the angle Ocean is playing at...
Maybe I'm just mad Sasha, Robin and Nia didn't get screen time lol.

Did my different runs on chapter 4 now and i must say Ocean did one hell of a job.
Not only on the graphics and story but also on the music (again)
I'm a huge fan of good music in VN's since it can make that specific scene just giving more impact.
Not many VN's have this and Ocean and also DPC are masters in picking the right song for the scenes which are important for the story
This is still number 1 song for me ingame but it's just fitting how MC is getting along with Bella. And that scene is just.... WOW
Eventhough it is from a previous chapter. Had to play them again and got instant goosebumps.
But now we got some progress in the story with Bella if you choose her path this song is spot on. The lyrics just are matching.
Also from a previous chapter but goddamn Ocean must have chosen it with the intention to just listen to the song and get the lyrics. It's just exactly how the relation between MC and Bella is going now.

hi guys, i just dowload the game and i already love it, but i have a question, how long does the creator take for new update? thanks and sorry for my bad english
Agreed, Ocean's taste in music is simply on point. The first kiss with Bella is probably the best and most impactful (in a good way) scene I've ever experienced in any VN, and huge credit for it goes to waykap's track, which made it so memorable and unique.Did my different runs on chapter 4 now and i must say Ocean did one hell of a job.

Sadly these and other beautiful songs, along with the animations/cinematics they were used for, will most likely have to be permanently removed from the game with the Steam release due to some license problems. Not sure which tracks specifically will be affected, but I definitely recommend to keep this version (next release of Ch 4.5 should still be fine), so that you can always experience these scenes to their fullest

Alot of artists don't want their musice associated with porngames. And there was 1 distributer who started to get cocky. Developers payed a butload of money for the licences and now they are wabing with some small prints. Leap of Faith was the first who got burned. Afaik only DPC managed to get the right licences.
I will keep chapter 3.5 or 4 on back-up just to have the "original" songs in this game. So i do hope Ocean also gets a licence for/from Waykap since these songs just "belong" to Summer's Gone
