VN - Ren'Py - Ripples [v0.6.0 Public] [Jestur]

Good Points
+ We have good looking renders with decent quality.
+ Animations have pretty good physics. Espacily Krystal tits shake animations was mesmerising... And they are long enough. They are not like 1 second loops. Lots of them have at least 3 second loops and its pretty good.
+ Sex scenes have lots of position and their angles looks quite good aswell. Espacily scenes like Cindy's feels pretty hot. And i realy hate when games add only one position/angle for sex scenes.
+ DEV spends time for details like manga/anime collection inside of Alyssa. Those was looking great and they were like inside of context it wasnt like he just copy and paste some png's to there. Or eye and lip line details etc.. Lots of thing have pretty little details and thats gives immersive part to game.
+ Story seems interesting and storytelling wasnt bad either. We have some serious mysteries and I'm looking forward to learn them with new updates. Plus we have some good sense of humor in story aswell
+ We have enough content for main story and adult story.

Bad Points
- Some of girls need little bit improve/chance. Because while some girls looks pretty some of them looks little bit unattractive and just little bit change for their hair can fix that. For example Krystal was looking little bit unattractive with her current/original hair but in v0.3.5 we saw her with cosplay hair and espacily lust demon cosplay hair was amazing. This hair literaly fixed her unattractive vibe and made her perfect. DEV should change her original hair to someting like that. Secondly we need different hair for Jessica aswell, her current hair dont look at all... And lastly Darci's tits could use some improve, im not saying make her like MC's mom or someting but for example young Jenny's tits was pretty decent, you could give Darci little bit big ones like young Jenny and you could even explain that with growing up and being sexsualy active which is quite normal thing to happen. She is one of main girls, she have pretty interesting character but her body? Its far from being attaractive...
- Riley's sex scene in 0.6.0 was unlogical I would say. Because in her latest sex scene with the MC, we had the option to choose to be dom or not, yet in the 0.6.0 sex scene we have to accept femdom first to see the whole sex scene and dom variation, and that makes no sense at all. The scene itself was funny for sure, but there is no point in having dom-sub paths if you are not gonna let people choose it and take away the whole sex scene from them and place the dom scene after the sub/femdom one.

For The End
Well this is all i can say about this game. Its pretty good and i hope it will became better with every update. Now its nearly perfect and im enjoying my time with this game a lot.

Ep 1 review
So the game is still in the early phase but i can assure anyone who is going to try it that it has very nice story and lewd scenes. Ep 1 is very promising and would recommend others to play too.
Renders are very nice and cute and so are the personalities of other characters in the game. My fav is darcie currently due to her awesome character and it looks cute when she tells about her stories. The main plot of the game quickly changes after the school visit and investigation part starts. So for main story the game got it good and the animations are also very good for this first release.
It may compete with others like Once in a lifetime, waifuacademy, my realdesire etc once it gets the attention it gets. May the 5 star rating motivate the developer not to abandon the ship in mid game.
Renders 5/5
Story telling 5/5
Animation 4.9/5
Suspense 100

Really impressive game:

The narrative so far is top notch, even if it may look too grim right out of the gate;

The character models are simple and clean, which is actually good for a timely release schedule and to give more focus to how the story unfolds (instead of going for complex renders that take way too much time and effort for little result). Everything looks gorgeous and fluid, striking a good balance between plot and eye candy;

The choices so far seem to matter, as there is this feeling that the player can't make everyone happy on the same play-through. There is depth to the characters, and the girls "sound" like actual people with their own agenda - even if said agenda is sometimes dictated by their raging hormones (...but hey, no one would complain about that on an adult VN, amirite?);

The sound design is eerie and alluring, and I would love to get a taste of a certain licensed song that plays quite the plot role on this first episode... The late 90's seem to play a big part on how the story will unfold, so even if the creator can't get a hold of the rights for a lot of music right away, my Spotify / Deezer playlist surely changed a bit after the game.

Overall, keep an eye on this one and back it up on Patreon if you 've got the spare bucks, as the author is just starting out and seems to be quite talented!

Entertaining characters/dialog, attractive models, and very impressive attention to detail in the animations (lip and cheek physics during blowjobs, for instance). That, plus the fact that the initial release gave me over an hour of gameplay, makes this a must-watch game for me.

Loved it! Not stingy on the sex scenes and has a good plot with matching descriptive text.

When I got close to the end of the game it gave me a Timestamps Unconditional Love kinda feel but that's fine by me as that game is awesome too.

Can't wait to see how this game turns out next although I do hope things don't stay in the past, was building up a pretty good pool of hot snatch.

Really good game with unique feeling character, old but loved features and a good story!
This game is really promising and I'm really intrigued in getting to know more about the story, girls and how both will affect each other! Also for a first version it really has more than enough content! Keep up the good work <3!

[ as of Ep. 1 - v0.1 ]

hello, all.
this is perhaps a tad too early in the game development to have a comprehensive review, so i'll probably have this revisioned during the upcoming updates — presuming, of course, there will be several of them.

the first good thing about Ripples: i actually expect future updates, for the game is based on a solid and inspiring plot. although copulation (meaning: fapping) is present during most of the first chapter, this isn’t the game’s main focus; there’s a captivating story here that compels the player just to keep trying it further.
hence i hope Ripples doesn’t go abandoned.

The Pros

• the graphics’ quality — animations included — is fine; yet, there’s always room for improvement;

• MC seems legitimate; he’s neither some below-60-IQ dude who is desperate to bang every living being nor the cliche old coot being held in an 18 y.o. body with rather deep insights on life. i found him a little too mature at times, but still plausible. his personal story has a nice curve imbued to it, and the surrounding girls (especially his lifelong friend) have emotional depth as well. once again: there’s room for improvement.

The Cons

• too many Engrish inaccuracies; the text should get a significant proofreading;

• also, the game size is too large for a first chapter. perhaps a good graphical compression is in order?

- - - - -

overall Ripples has the elements to become a great game.

i just hope this brief review helps.

Very nice game, great animations, all the females look incredible and love the story, can't wait to see what happens in the future updates. I really recommend following this game. allready i have 2 different saves for different story decisions, and started wondering if there are even more.

i gotta be honest when i saw that this game was another honey select game i
didn't really feel like playing it the reason is because i've seen so many and
have been dissapointed by so many though i have played a few really good ones but oh boy am i glad that i decided to atleast try it right away the main menu looks amazing really unique and well made that already made me more positive

now to the game right off the bat the characters are amazing from the beginning they way they are introduced is spot on they are all great fun and really pretty for a honey select game they look amazing they are also really well written i have nothing more to say amazing characters i didn't hate any of them except the bullies of course

now for the story nothing much to say it's still to early to really say anything
yet for the story though no spoilers the end really intrigued me and i'm curious where it's gonna go

now i already talked about the characters how great they are and how well they are introduced but i just wanna talk more of them they are the stars of this game i am seriously impressed with how fast i fell in love with every character in the game not many games can instantly make me feel in love with the characters in less then 20 minutes i feel like i know these characters i dn't know how to explain it you will just have to play the game to find out all i can say the are amazing right from the start again

now for the lewd scenes in this game i don't wanna spoil them but what i can say is they are amazing much much better than 90% of other honey select games and the way they are paced with just enough context is amazing
they are also long but not to long the perfect lenght now i don't wanna spoil
with whom and when but i will just say that the blowjob the way it is paced animated and that there are multiple angless is honestly one of the best blowjob scenes i've ever seen in a porn game and i am i oral addict so that's a huge plus for me but there is more than just a blowjob in this version so don't worry if you want more

in conclussion even though this is only the 1st version
i can already say that it is amazing and i can't wait to see what the dev does next i seriously hope the dev finishes the game and doesn't drop it like so many other promising porn games because this atleast to me seems like it can be one of the best porn games i've ever played great models interesting story amazing character incredible sex scenes well paced and just overal a great start i can't wait to see more of this game soon

I'm usually not into sci-fi, but if it's good enough the genre isn't an issue. And it is plenty good! The story and the characters are well-written. And it's always a good sign when you are desperate for the game to have a harem route, because you don't want to pick, well you do want to pick, pick them all!The animations are looking good. There are plenty of content for a first release. Looking forward to where the dev takes the story. Keep up the great work!
