VN Ren'Py The King of Summer [v0.6.5-early] [No Try Studios]

[asprin33]

Based on the way you write, I think you're the same person that has been writing me some comments and DMs over the past few months. I'm okay with people not enjoying the game, and while some of your criticism has been a little confusing (censored images...?), I appreciate the honesty.

But I would like to clarify a few misconceptions. First off, based on screenshots you've sent me, the poor quality image is probably because you play compressed versions of the game translated to your language. So that's not something I can control. It also takes a certain degree of effort to make Koikatsu's CGs look nice, but that's neither here nor there.

Second, I intend to finish the game during the first quarter or third of 2026. I am already working on my next long game (slowly, so I can have a sizeable first release ready by the time KoS is complete). So nope, I don't intend to continue King of Summer forever. It might've taken me longer than expected, but the FINAL ending is in sight.

And third, if the women keep having sex with Kendo while Satoshi is humiliated... is because I like that. I find it hot. What my patrons enjoy or want me to do has rarely, if ever, affected my creative choices. My approach has always been to make the game in a way *I* enjoy. Based on your DMs and comments, you seem to wish for some grand Satoshi redemption and/or revenge arc where he gets a bunch of girls and stands up to Kendo... But that's not something I'm interested in. I don't find the idea exciting, or hot, or interesting to write. I would probably lose all motivation if I forced myself to do it. And it wouldn't turn out any good, because again, I wouldn't enjoy it. It would feel horribly dull. And I doubt anybody wants that.

....Also, there IS a revenge ending where Satoshi

Hello, thank you for your answer.
I'll try to answer your questions one by one.
1. I follow you on the boss. I like the game's story and music.
2. I've never downloaded the compressed version of the game. I only mentioned that I didn't like the game's HCG scenes. Some of the images were censored in my opinion, but they might not be to your liking. This depends on your art style, and I respect that.
3. I criticized you on your boss page before. That's true.
4. I don't remember an ending where Satoshi gets revenge. I've reached many endings in the game. I don't think it's the ending where Satoshi escapes from Arato's room, abandons Marriage, and never speaks to Marriage again. I'm just checking out the updates for now. I want to play the game from the beginning when I finish it. You say the second ending is the revenge ending, I'll review that again.
5. I use a vn translator when playing the game. Unfortunately, my English isn't sufficient.
6- Your gameplay style resembles Japanese NTR manga. I found an example manga about a character losing their lover or wife to a man with a large penis ([Tamachi Yuki] Netorare Sankaku Kankei - NTR Love Triangle). If you can't find this manga by its title, I'll send you the link.
7. Thank you in advance for taking the time to respond.

Seeing as you really have no interest on it, could you at least confirm if there's gonna be at least another consequence ending?

As in, an ending in which Kendo and/or Mary suffer any consequences for the cheating, NTR, humiliation and all of that?

Nope, there won't be! I don't see the point of a third one.

There is going to be one more ending that will expand on and continue from the mid point of ending 2, which will be the final ending of the game.

Ah, the part where Kendo needs to have a level of 80?

Yes, that's going to lead into the final ending.

I'm curious, I'm not really into that dark theme NTR, similar to Arato, so I don't want anything with him, but do I really need to progress his story to actually continue with Kendo? I saw in the ending guide or something that it's necessary to level it up to continue with the story, or is it just for him? I've been playing the game on and off, so I haven't got to the part where he got fully introduce, except for the pink hair girl appearing for a short bit. TYIA, I don't mind any spoilers whatsoever

I think you do? there's a scene that basically ends in a decision on Kendo leaving due to Satoshi's petition, or him staying. This is after Arato is introduced, because once Kendo is gone, it is basically a flag for the Arato route, but if Kendo stays, it continues as it would.

Okay, so after getting to it, it's definitely forced, but I understand why, I guess... it would be hard to add another antagonist considering its an NTR game, and forcing his character into the story kinda makes sense since he got a darker theme than Kendo, but I still hate it, so I ended up just skimming through out the story and skipping most sex scene until I got to that part, still a really good game tho, I really love Hidden sex stuff, it's just unfortunate for it to be heavily tied to NTR games, but I can see this game as Netori under Kendo's perspective, since the MC is incredibly annoying XD

I haven't gone far on this game's story yet, but looking at the changelog... kudos to you for being one of the very few devs that actually delivers monthly updates with a considerable amount of content instead of just releasing one or two updates per year with meager stuff, like many other patreon milker projects here that people even dares to say they're one of the best games around.

 

[nickrotund]

how tf is this game still going..

 

[Bluerabbit178]

Im new of this, what's the different of early and full version in this site? Is it another scene on this version?

 

[perikeeto]

My machine is so bad that the game crashes on mary bouncing ass

Try 30fps or change renderer and if it crashes only in that scene load the closest scene and don't make saves, don't rollback u can use auto forward and pray the Triple Godess.


Or maybe just go to the next game... You won't lose such a big thing...

hey, idk if this was already done but there was supposed to be an ending with mary and the pink haired girl(in the arato route), is this still going to be done or is it already done?

It really depends on the dev on how they name or version their game, but most of the time, beta or early release, especially one from leaks, sometimes have bugs, while the official public releases are more stable, since the early people who got it got to report their issue... but some games have different version, like Patreon version, and public version, whereas the Patreon version have some paywalled content the public version doesn't have, or another variation to some sex scene...

I think that's already finished? it's already in the gallery. "It Never Changes" and the Arato route are finished already, there's no more stuff being added to it.
