Great game i completed the current version a while ago and thought id check back to see if there has been any updates, then decided to check the comments and saw that you had surgery and just wanted to wish you a swift recovery jestur
Been watching eagerly and even replaying the novel currently to see if I could get different outcomes and I love it still. I saw a few comments down you had surgery and I hope you're getting better physically and you're taking time to yourself for a healthy recovery!
Right now, I'm at Episode 4 and holy cow. I.. what THE HELL. I'm honest: there are things I quiet disliked about the choices and stuff.. BUT the story is gooood, and I constantly feel like doing big and bigger mistakes.. especially in 1999..
But still: Great game, good story, cool animations in between, cute characters (Skylar and Darci are my fav.) and yeah. Good job.
Hi! This game looks very interesting! Im not sure if this game could be put on Steam but if you could would you at some point in the future or no? Just curious as I love all my adult visual novels there but I'd happily support here if you only have means for this platform!
I have a few comments to make, on Android, where do the saves get stored, I changed my phone and I want to have the saves moved over. and for PC, I hate mega as the download option, it requires the app and it's unnecessary complications to get it downloaded to a steam deck, I had to download it to the phone, and transfer it through an SSH network file share to download it. MediaFire doesn't suffer that issue.
This is such a a fantastic game. However the thumbnail for it in Itch doesn't nearly do it justice. As much as I hate to pull you from development, I would really revisit this. I passed up this game many times because it has looked so bland. You deserve to be one of the top AVN downloads and I think this will help you get the recognition you deserve.
I'm not 94dgrif, but since I skipped Ripples multiple times for the same reason (before I ran out of more-interesting-looking VNs and actually gave it a chance and realized how good it actually is), I thought I'd add my 2 cents and people can upvote/downvote me depending on whether they agree or not.
In my personal opinion, the generic bright blue-pinkish background fails to convey that that the main plot is actually rather deep and dark, and two girls touching each other may also give the (wrong) impression that this is at least to a degree a yuri VN or something, which some people have some adversity towards.
Not saying you should outright copy its style, but: in terms of 'vibe', something in the approximate direction of the Eternum thumbnail would represent this VN better, I think. Something a bit darker. Maybe give more emphasis on the 'ripples' effect, too, make it a little more distorted or something, to give a slightly better hint that this isn't just a fluffy slice-of-life story. The current thumbnail simply makes one think this would be a much shallower work than it actually is. Maybe make 2 or 3 new thumb concepts and put them up on your discord or patreon to vote on (and include 'keep current thumbnail' as vote option just in case, but as long as you manage to come up with something cool, I'm pretty sure the old thumbnail will lose the vote).
Oh, and you should absolutely insert the keyword 'harem' in the tagline, too. Like "Story-focused adult harem sci-fi game". People might fail to realize it's a harem VN unless they actually go to this page, which they may not even bother to do without any indicator of this from the tagline.
yes I agree with OnionCuttingNinja a lot. The game I much more of an Eternium vibe, and of that quality. At a basic level, pretty much any of your gallery images within the game progression would be a better thumbnail - they're dynamic, interesting, sexy and not at all generic.
possibly something with a split screen of one of the adult females from present with modern things in the background and on the other side of the split screen the same girl in the past but make it obvious its the same girl and then the ripple effect getting stronger towards the edge of the thumbnail. Don't know if that's what you are looking for but it might be cool that way.
Wow, Sinus-surgery is really tough shit! I wish you a good an FULL recovery! You`re doing such a fantastic job with this game - every period of waiting is worth it!
i watched someone play this and just downloaded it myself how come some of the scenes on the first ep have been changed? and ep 2 with skylar? guessing more has changed?
One of, if not the best games I've ever played. It's right up there with amity park and Vel's series + spinoffs. Beautiful game with great characters and an interesting story that I cannot recommend enough! The time travel aspect adds tons of complexity to the plot, and it's really cool. Thank you so much for this wonderful game! Also, Jestur, I hope you get better soon, sinus surgery sounds rough :(
I had sinus surgery and took a little bit of time off to recover, but I just started working on it again. It shouldn't be too much longer. I have a little over 1 scene left to do. It's a big update. Lots of scenes.
Btw, when ep 5 will arrive, what should we do with our saves? I mean, saves I have at the end of 0.4.6... I do not want to replay everything again... Will there be a possibility to just copy my saves to the new installation? I'm talking about android ver.
If you played the last update (4.5 or 4.6) then you're good. The only people that need to restart are the people that haven't played the remaster/rework, which had a lot of code changes in the game.
thank you for the reply! I first downloaded this AVN on my potato laptop and it was lagging in a lot of scenes so I downloaded it again on my desktop and wow, this is definitely one of the best AVNs out there. Thank you for this amazing experience!
This is the best AVN i've played. You can't leave us hanging! PLEASE WE NEED EPISODE 5!!! and then probably another 5 episodes after that too! PLEASE!!!!!! I'll send more money lol
I had sinus surgery and took some time off to recover, but I just started working on it again. It shouldn't be too much longer. I have a little over 1 scene left to do. It's a big update. Lots of scenes.
Sorry to hear about your surgery. I hope it wasn't anything serious and that your recovery has been quick and easy. Thanks so much for the update on the...update. I'm so excited! You've done great work and i really appreciate the effort you've put into making this a great game. Keep up the great work!
and btw what it is noted about the saves? i've played 0.4.6 version to the end but it seems that when the update will be out, I won't be able to use my saves at all, right?
If you played the last update (4.5 or 4.6) then you're good. The only people that need to restart are the people that haven't played the remaster/rework, which had a lot of code changes in the game.
I think this game is a gem and i am very excited to see how the story progresses. I am usually no a big fan of time travel stories but, i think that if the narrative doesn't take it self too seriously it can be a very interesting plot device.
I really like the the way the story is going so far. My only 2 complaints about the game so far are:
First, I think the dialogue on the beggining of act one is a little awkward. Everyone kinda sounds like they're robots trying to imitate humans. And second, the game has some perfomance issues. It seems that it doesn't handle 3D graphics very well. Some of the 3D scenes were playing at under 10 fps for me.
This game was great, I loved the story. I do have to ask, do you plan on making an episode 5 or even a sequel? From when the latest dev blog was I doubt it a bit, but I don’t know how long it takes to make stuff like this so yeah.
So, just checked out the discord so no need to answer this. Can’t wait!

I have tried to open the game on my phone but as soon as I open it it will crash what can I do to fix it
How unlock the option of dominating the black hair women with a banana
I hope and wish you recover well
You mean the Darci's grandma? I skipped her shes too old.
You have choose to dislike mint chocolate and get points with her. There is a walkthrough in my discord and Patreon.
Great game i completed the current version a while ago and thought id check back to see if there has been any updates, then decided to check the comments and saw that you had surgery and just wanted to wish you a swift recovery jestur
pregnancy?
Gotta be careful you don't end up your own father 😆
Love the game! Ive gone through it multiple times! Any idea of when new content will be released?
Been watching eagerly and even replaying the novel currently to see if I could get different outcomes and I love it still. I saw a few comments down you had surgery and I hope you're getting better physically and you're taking time to yourself for a healthy recovery!
Right now, I'm at Episode 4 and holy cow. I.. what THE HELL.

What kind of thumbnails would you suggest?

Darci and Skylar are my favs. Who do you like?
Show post...
The models and rendering style are fantastic, great job!
any info for next update ?
I had sinus surgery and took a little bit of time off to recover, but I just started working on it again. It shouldn't be too much longer. I have a little over 1 scene left to do. It's a big update. Lots of scenes.
oh ! i am sorry recovery first take your time
Get Well Jestur, I'm waiting to have the same surgery. The game is fantastic, thank you for providing us with a great story and entertainment.
And the wait continues... Patiently though. Good things take time. This is a great game. More than time shall be needed for this one.
Please don't get the wrong idea, I just like to be silly sometimes. 😅
Btw, when ep 5 will arrive, what should we do with our saves? I mean, saves I have at the end of 0.4.6... I do not want to replay everything again... Will there be a possibility to just copy my saves to the new installation? I'm talking about android ver.

Why MEGA?
So you don't what the painful world we are living in...
I am in dire need of an episode 5.
And I cannot join the discord server, is there anyone experiencing this issue too?
Same
Try https://discord.gg/ripples
It works fine for me. I don't know why the other one isn't working.

do you have any other download link other than Mega? I donated 5 bucks and now Mega is capping downloads at 4g and I have to wait 5 more hours!!
Use vpn then open mega
Check my patreon. There's a public post with alternative links on it.

Currently "Average Session" says "a few seconds". You may want to change that!
or does he ;)
btw what has changed in remaster?

Great game, Great Story, Amazing artwork can't wait for more
This game is fantastic! Solid 100000000/10. The design and animation are all amazing~ Thank you for making this game.
This is a banger bro!
The MC needs answer, now i want too.

I am whit you on this one bro!
Love the butterfly effect-like storyline. That was epic. Look forward to seeing more :)
So i went rogue and fucked Riley and it said "Deviant Mode Activated". What have i done...?
something that everyone should have done.
I'm don't get it. How to dowload Ep.2-4? I'm see link only for Ep.1 Remaster.
You get all the Episodes up to Ep.4. The remaster is currently just for Chapter 1.
This game was great, I loved the story. I do have to ask, do you plan on making an episode 5 or even a sequel? From when the latest dev blog was I doubt it a bit, but I don’t know how long it takes to make stuff like this so yeah.

Getting close to finishing Ep5 but I have to get sinus surgery in a week, so it's going to be delayed a little bit, but hopefully not too long.
Thanks for the heads up. Looking forward to it when you do get around to it after recovery, good luck
Get well soon and all the best for your surgery ! Love Ripples !
Nice game
Also I noticed some good referenced in there like Judie from Once in a Lifetime and the name "Donnie Darko" from the movie
I really liked the game and cannot wait for more.
Donnie Darko reference is a nice touch indeed
Jestur is extremely good at increasing the hype and the lowering the patience for the next updates!!
Bro, dying I can't be left here on a cliff hanger like this... it's illegal TT
Any idea on next update?
