VN Ren'Py Ripples [v0.7.0 Public] [Jestur]

[pitao]

Oh that's awesome thanks. I didn't realize updates would be uploaded separately, any I've seen so far were in the list with main downloads. Thanks, appreciate it!

They are not (official), but there is threads on the site to request compression and updates only patches. You see those members with a label in their user names of "Compressor". No idea about the technicalities but they use tools to separate the files that were added and changed and make a update only file to be added/overwrite to the previous version. Those are not official update patches that is why they put always a disclaimer like this "The patch may break your game, use at your own risk.", but so far never had any issue using those patches, as long you apply them correctly.

Usually when there is official update patches they are in the OP.

Not an exaggeration. While 8.5g normally doesn't take long to download, all the upload sites have a rate limit that makes it take almost 2 hours. They also have a download limit, which means once it gets to 5gb downloaded or so, come back tomorrow and hope you can resume the download.

Rarely had that issue but usually I use GoFile as first choice, no limits there besides a monthly huge limit but I heard that in some countries isn't an option, in Portugal I have no issues downloading thru GoFile. Pixeldrain and Mega have daily limits, but Pixeldrain still downloads slower after the limit. In Ripples there is also Mediafire that I never saw any daily limit too. But that is in my country, no idea if is different for other countries. I always avoid mixdrop since is filled with ads, sometimes they even appear with my adblocker on .

For me the plot makes more sense with incest patch, along others might disagree. But both work fine. Keep in mind though that the patch is outdated, it's for 0.6 and not for newer versions, so it might crash the game. The multi-mod does have the incest tag integrated though, and it's for 0.7. But the content is the same with or without incest, it just changes the plot a bit.

About the 2nd question, you can still romance every girl, but you won't be able to have see all content, there are some scenes that you get from one girl or another, or none, depending your choice. Which is sad, because of my favorite girls on this game are on the most notorious choice. But you still are able to have content with all of them in one playthrough, just not ALL content.

There isn't any confirmation yet of harem with all girls, and the answers given hint that we won't have that in the end game. But that may can change in the future, we never know. Still, even if I like to get all girls and not let one behind, I deeply recommend you to play it. Definitely in my top 5-6 on this website, it's well worth it, and the dev is actually a nice and down-to earth guy.

The few H-scenes I initially looked at turned me quite off with the dynamic at play, but I still gave it a shot and I had a good time so far nonetheless. Its very nicely made, the models and animations are really good, and even though its not what I generally would enjoy, its way less aggrevating than the few scenes made me believe. Good game. Probably awesome, if one enjoys proactive girls.

If I can see most content and I won't get proactively screwed for trying to get with all the girls like in dik I'm fine. If I enjoy a game I obviously want to see as much as possible lol.

Thank you very much for the helpful reply. I wish you a calm day.

I read a few other parts of Ripples and I my opinion has changed a bit. I still dislike the dynamic of the girls assuming the male role of initiating sex while the MC goes passively along for the ride like girls do - but I understand why its done and its in 98% of games like that and here its not even that aggrevating as far as I have seen now. I might have caught the worst scenes when I checked the game out first.
The animations are very good and its a breath of fresh air that MC's buddy is getting some instead of getting constantly humiliated for jokes. Enjoyed myself reading yesterday. May it continue like that.

And a peacefull dull relationship with a well meaning patronizing man has many advantages. Exciting gets tiring fast.
In the long run. Even in VNs it can be good like Cosy Cafe shows.

Guess you should have rejected this since it doesn't have the tags "Male Dom", "Misogyny" and "Men That Feel Threatened By Equals".

GoFile is usually your best bet. If they have a download limit after a certain amount I've never noticed it. My 2nd choice is usually MediaFire, and they do throttle your speed after the first 5gb or so, but even then it's not horribly slow.

That said, your best bet for big files is probably the rpdl torrent. They're very fast.
It's not linked in the OP, but you can find it here :

Good hint on the torrent files, never had to use them but they usually are a great option for members with issues using the uploaders/downloaders in the OP.

Thats probably true lol

or the tag "women should be property"

I still did though and gave a fair feedback and no negative review - and now I'm also glad I actually did check it out as I still enjoy many aspects of it. Scene with the best friend as pickup artist having two milfs with his astronaut jacket on was funny and unusally wholesome for "AVN best buddy" standards. Credits to dev for that alone. No one needs more of humiliating the best buddy in AVNs.

I guess the first step in recognizing you're a sociopath is admitting that you're a sociopath.

A real sociopath wouldn't admit, acknowledge or believe they were a sociopath. And they would gaslight you into believe you were the real sociopath.

I would appreciate some help with hidden render #17. I have looked at the hint and also at the walkthrough.

It's the second office scene. Full details below.

Not once you've figured it out. They tend to want to share that for some reason - it might be the one thing that gives them a real feeling.

IIRC, in Back to the Future the MC traveled back in time somewhat by accident while trying to run for his life.

Wasn't it to save Doc from the Libyans? The whole parents plot was triggered by Marty's accident with Lorraine's dad's car and subsequent events.

Thanks, got it!

No, he was running away from the Libyans who had just killed Doc and accidentally hit 88mph in the DeLorean time machine so he was thrown back to 1955; once there, he came with the idea to save Doc.

I'm using gofile or pixeldrain, both download at the speed of 6,6 MB/s ( thats my internet speed ) so it doesnt take that long and no limitation too for me or you can use MEGA and use VPN after reaching the limit ( thats what i did and it works ) and i'm from Indonesia one of the country with slowest internet.

This game is great. The dynamic might not always be to my liking, but it feels very real. Which has a great effect on the impact of the H-scenes. And thus its enjoyable even if I'm not the target audience. The optics of the girls are extremely good - like you could reach into the screen and touch their skin. Incredible. Also appreciate the design of the females. That small tits and medium tits exist is not only to my liking - it makes big tits feel big for real. I don't like the sometimes quite strong feminist frame, but then again, when I was 18 like the MC is, I was probably similar. At least its kinda realistic in that sense. And at times he is surprisingly masculine. Again, I have to remind myself he's only 18. And most of the games audience can probably relate more to an MC who is on the passive side. Its just current times really. The H-scenes are not only an afterthought like in most games, but are a central pillar of the creators effort and focus. Much appreciated. The animations are awesome, but I was even more impressed by the whole design of the H-scenes. Actually arousing. All the hyper sex-positive girls would be terrifying as GFs/wives IRL but with plot armor it makes for good content (hat tip to DaFinker ). A game that deserves the description H-game. Rare.

Objectively, I think there is only one game on the top rated page with the same quality - everything considered.

Thanks Jestur and best wishes.

The real question is how he managed to hit 88mph with a DeLorean in a parking lot. Doc must have souped that bitch up with more than a time machine.
