Yeah, this game was way below of what I expected. Art was good and the game makes some good use of pixel art animations at some moments, but that's it.

but I'll try to not pick on the dev too much here because it was his first game, maybe he'll improve in the future. I might also replay it when it get a better translation, and maybe I'll like the story and characters better this time.

This "game" is horrible, if you're gonna copy Scars of Summer at least grab the mechanics that made the game good. This is just a press T simulator.

So do you always choose one path at the beginning and all the other paths are disabled? Or can you play them together?

In Scars of Summer you can have several paths at once and the one with the most progress gets the ending-scene. But here i always have only one path active and then i wait 2,3 days always spamming t to skip time, finally see a scene and repeat.
That's annoying...

It wont let me enter. Do I have to beat the game?
In your room is a blue and a red flame. I guess you need to activate the recollection room by using the red flame.

IDK if it's the lack of actual translation but the ntr doesn't really hit for me. Scenes are nice but outside of that they're not really building that ntr feel like scars of summer.

Its worst, dint even have a demo and the dev postpone the alpha like one year and half. News post in twitter confirm my theory the game don't exist or the game its to complicated and will never see the light like this game:

8 years working and only a buggy alplha like 5 years ago.

What a shame. We get it, Scars of Summer was an amazing NTR game, but all of these copycats seem to not truly understand what made that game great. They go "Lets see, Tomboy, check. Some backwater village with weird customs, got it. Male POV, yup. And NTR, nailed it!!" No, you copied the smart kid's homework before checking if you even had the same version.

I think what this one and many of the other copies lack is a clear identity. Just ticking the boxes doesn't cut it. The girls are completely cookie-cutter. I don't even remember their names. There is a clear misunderstanding of what made the Male POV of SoS work well. In this game you sit around spamming T until something, anything eventually happens. No outside activities, no real objectives or motives. The male character here is just a sprite object that is used to get you to each lackluster mystery NTR scene as you wait to switch perspectives. What's the point? And it's a real shame too because this artist draws wonderful background CG. Hell, the art in general is pretty damn neat. Why not take advantage of the background drawing skills and show the many ways the male character views the world (and how the girl hides around in it)? Or hell, through phone pictures or video calls?

I'm starting to suggest shit which means I'm ranting too much. I hope all these devs can get the first game jitters out of their system and use the gained resources to make their next games take advantage of their own unique ideas or skills.

Yeah all of these feel like holdovers till the next game. The game really needs those in game scenes like in Scars of summer where you see the girl walking around with one of the guys. It really does help things. I said in another comment that maybe it's the lack of good translation but the characters really miss that oomph. Which is a shame because the teacher route is something I wished we saw in scars of summer.

Also the teacher route was interesting but IMO they missed the mark by making him a porno producer type of guy. IMO it would've been hotter if he was a sex ed teacher. He'd use the girl as a demonstration for various body parts and sexual acts. Is it unrealistic? Sure but it's a freaking porn game I feel like it's fine if one of the routes is a bit over the top.
