The anime is Grisaia series, specifically the main series, composed of two seasons and a special. Grisaia no Kajitsu, Grisaia no Meikyuu: Caprice no Mayu 0 and Grisaia no Rakuen. The work is based on a visual novel of the same name, and it is available on steam. I recommend watching the anime.There is, a "sequel", albeit with new characters and changing the focus of the story. I don't particularly recommend it, but anyway.
Just to let you know guys, this VN is heavily inspired by the TV show DARK from Netflix. If you know the plot, you can easily guess what will happen in this game. Nice game though.
This was the first time playing this game for me and holy moly!
The story is well written and keeps you interested into discovering more and choices actually impact future dialogues, althrough in some cases you are forced into an event that progress the plot (i.e. when exploring the power plant tunnels).
About characters: Their personalities are a bit cliché, though through the eyes of the mc, I see all of them as people before being women. It's a nice thing that helps coping with the fact that literally everyone is ready to jump on mc's penis.
Among the female cast though, my fav one is Jenny. She's like the better version of Alyssa, who is imho too shy.
Might be that Jenny's path is written in more detail (maybe the choices I did, focused less on some other girls) but I enjoyed her scenes a lot (talking about dialogues in general, more than the nsfw parts). Also, her last scene on chapter 4 gave me the same vibes as when in Life is Strange you have to decide between saving Chloe or Arcadia Bay.
Anyway, I hope there'll be a chance to save Jenny by bringing her to the future or something - unless, of course, she's the shit-ninja, in turn making me wonder about a certain readhead's (I don't remember her name) role in all of this.
On another note, dialogues with Darci are something else, lmao.
In general, the game is a little gem, going from sounds to animations (some of them are funny, like Kira swinging her boobs in front of you as a punishment), so I highly recomend playing it.
Lastly, a silly question for the devs: I don't know how long ago the project started, but in chapter 3(?), during the ice cream scene, the mc thinks to himself about Daphne clearly wanting to hop on his pogo stick. Is this a quote to the song "Pogo" by Diplo and Bbno$?
Holy shit! Dude, the story, characters, (Darci and Skylar are the best imo) music and sounds, animations and the tone of the game is phenomenal! Choices does affect and I didn't mind that at all. Definitely is landing on my top 10. Highly recommend it.
I didn't want to forget the several VN easter eggs in the game. On of them being Judy (character from Once in a Lifetime) in the cellphone shop with Delilah (from Deviant Anomalies). I also recommend those games.
Android version size is getting larger and larger.Will there be a solution for this?I can hardly fit it in my android.Plz do something about it bro😢😢🙏.
I'm a fanboy of Back to the Future and I wasn't expecting this game to have such a plot, I went in completely blind and I have to say that this game made me smile like a little kid again, without a doubt this is a 10/10 for me.
Can't wait to see what's next and having finished the update just now, I'm going to replay the game again on the same fricking day.
You guys keep rocking, best wishes to all of you involved in this project! Godspeed you beautiful people.
Thanks, Cevanth. Your comment put a smile on my face and give me the boost I need to keep grinding on the part I'm working on. I'm glad you enjoyed the game so far!
You can check my discord or become a patron for a more detailed progression on the next update status. But I'm working away on the next update, but it's probably going to be a couple of months before it's released.
I would but the game is too big to be uploaded onto itch. Before this update, that's exactly what I did, but the last update went over 4GB limit so I couldn't use itch any more. Sorry 😞
Having gotten through before remaster and after, I'm impressed at the changes you've made. I am really digging the story concept and can't wait for more.
Man, I love how AVN creators build an entire universe with HoneySelect's 3D models (I don't know if Ripples used HS2, but it's still awesome). Some even make references to each other and that's wonderful!! I love these stories, they make me forget the real world and they entertain me a lot! lmao
I totally agree. Eternum & B.A.D. are two of my favorites and now Ripples is right up there with them. Anxious for more.
FYI, another one that you may like is "Now & Then, A Tale of the End". Animatiation isn't on the same level as the ones previously mentioned but makes it up with a very good story.
I am on Episode 4 as of writing this comment but this game is really great! The story is fascinating and it really gets you curious about what happens next like any good animes. The girls too are amazing and the graphics are really good. I hope you continue making more updates on this game cause I really like it a lot!!
from what i can tell not having downloaded it yet.... for windows and mac there is only the remastered version option so its the whole thing with the first ep remade/remastered otherwise this comment section would have a ton of angry posts about the dev and his game
Sorry, but is there a slight chance, that you have a problem with a mc that is not the selfish, dominating, ultra-macho? This VN actually tells a story with characters that do have a background and a personality. Calling the MC a loser, because he actually considers the wellbeing of others, says a lot about you - and not to your favor...
Is there a chance, that you have a totally different cultural background? Like Arabic or Afrikan? 'Cause to a Mideuropean, his way of interacting with all the girls looks considerate and playfull, especially the way of talking to eachother? I spend quite some time in the Middle-East and Africa, so I know that this kind of interaction indeed does look strange for named males!?
East Asia? Where from? That actually explains a lot, because in east asian cultures, male domination is still looked at as a god-given fact, whereas for the "western" cultures, men and women are deemed equal in mostly all respects - including the right, to talk to a friend in what seems a rather respectless manner. But actually that normally is a sign of trust and friendship! Talk like that to someone you're not close with and the answer might hurt, literally! So, what looks strange to you, might be absolutely ok in other parts of the World. Have you ever been outside your cultural hemisphere? If not, you should may be be a little more considerate, before judging other cultures, ok?
Ok, just finished Episode 4 and I must say the Story is intriguing, setting aside the sexuality of it, it's still a good read whichever path you take. I really look forward to seeing how the story plays out. Excellent work so far Jestur.
I keep getting "App not installed as package is invalid" on Android. Any idea how to get around that? I can try to uninstall and start from 0 but I'd rather continue from where I left off.
How to solve the framerate problems, other Ren'Py VNs with animated scenes run and flow smoothly but this game doesn't is it an optimization thing or what?
Don't think I mentioned anything about the game itself, just commented that you're doing a lot of bitching for someone that is the most active on the thread. Also having bad grammar is one thing but I don't think anyone fully understands what point you're even trying to prove anymore.
Jestur, just ignore him please. He's spent the past several days trash talking the game. After attempting to actually address his comments and correct his poor assumptions, he has only doubled down and dug in deeper. I can't report him for violation of TOS or community guidelines, because from what I have seen, he has done neither of those. He is however, trolling hard in an attempt to get attention.

When you watch anime with Jessica, which series is it?

is there pregnancy
Dumb question and maybe minor spoilers.
What anime is that they are watching together? I can't for the life of me remember.
IIRC, Highschool DxD
That's what they were watching in bed together at the end of act 2? Also phenomenal game. Played it through a few times.
Whens episode 5 coming out. I so want to know what happens next
This was the first time playing this game for me and holy moly!

I can't wait for Episode 5.
Is Judie from Once In a Lifetime making a cameo appearance?
do you need multiple playthroughs to unlock all scenes?
Why is it that when I find a good game with nice reviews and when I try to download it it takes me to the MEGA crap that shit is so confusing 😭
hey, this game is great the animation is so good and the story. time travel i did not expect that. keep up the great work. I'm loving it!!!
How many ~'hours' of gameplay is available right now?
I'm really interested, and don't want to get disappointed by waiting for content early on.
(I'll be able to schedule gameplay)
Thanks.
well that all depends on how great your stamina is, and how long it takes you to clean up between scenes.
tbh, I used to 'run out of stamina ' a year ago, but, I only play these games for the plot nowadays.
I will of course read all dialogue, even in some hot scenes, but I'll refrain from playing 'other types' of games ; )
I've already have a 'system' on when I play which game.
I've been enjoying it so far. : )
Thanks, keep up the great work.
Android version size is getting larger and larger.Will there be a solution for this?I can hardly fit it in my android.Plz do something about it bro😢😢🙏.
Dude, Jestur, I hate you. Dark is my favorite TV show. Fucking love this VN. Can't wait for more.
😀

Please use a supported method, so updates can be downloaded directly through the app.
I would but the game is too big to be uploaded onto itch. Before this update, that's exactly what I did, but the last update went over 4GB limit so I couldn't use itch any more. Sorry 😞
I've downloaded files larger than 20 GB. Upload it as a zip, if it is too large for butler.
Really great storyline! Will there be an episode 5?
Yeah, there will be an episode 5. And an episode 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
Such a great job of making likable and believable characters, even with the sci-fi storyline. Excited to see where this goes!!
Are you from Oregon? I noticed the Beavers oriented school
All my homies love Ripples!
Yay! 😄
Nissan! 😱
Having gotten through before remaster and after, I'm impressed at the changes you've made. I am really digging the story concept and can't wait for more.
Keep up the good work.
10/10 its been so long since i found a porn game as cool as this
Alright the VN scene where the dudes spanking it in the shower has been found, i repeat sauce located
This is not that VN. 😅
Man, I love how AVN creators build an entire universe with HoneySelect's 3D models (I don't know if Ripples used HS2, but it's still awesome). Some even make references to each other and that's wonderful!! I love these stories, they make me forget the real world and they entertain me a lot! lmao
Ok story is amazing I'm actually hooked wondering how it all ties together can't wait for more
I can't wait to see how stuff unfolds. One of my favorite ones I've played so far and hope to see more soon!
Top notch game.. in my top 3 for sure. Animation wise #1
Nah. Animation wise have to go with eternum
W
So far so good. Can't wait to play around with time some more.
I made an Itch account just to say this but, this has Eternum or Being a Dik potential! I need EP 5 eta! Immediate backer when it comes out!
Thanks for the compliment. I'm working on ep5 now.
Awesome I wish you good sleep, don't lose hair over it!
I totally agree. Eternum & B.A.D. are two of my favorites and now Ripples is right up there with them. Anxious for more.

It's all episodes, although with some changed scenes. The girls don't quite give it up as easily. I guess it gives you more to strive for.
Is Ep.1 remastered only Episode 1 or is it all episodes?
from what i can tell not having downloaded it yet.... for windows and mac there is only the remastered version option so its the whole thing with the first ep remade/remastered otherwise this comment section would have a ton of angry posts about the dev and his game
Great game
Will the remaster be for android too?
Its here

Just my two pence...
I guess its a pretty common way to make plots interesting. And you know the dev might not care about such small stuff...

I keep getting "App not installed as package is invalid" on Android. Any idea how to get around that? I can try to uninstall and start from 0 but I'd rather continue from where I left off.
You need to delete the old app and data and start a new game. Sorry for the inconvenience.
How to solve the framerate problems, other Ren'Py VNs with animated scenes run and flow smoothly but this game doesn't is it an optimization thing or what?
Thanks for playing.
Love the fact that the person that apparently hates the game has the most comments on the page lol
Don't think I mentioned anything about the game itself, just commented that you're doing a lot of bitching for someone that is the most active on the thread. Also having bad grammar is one thing but I don't think anyone fully understands what point you're even trying to prove anymore.

Is the MC really a sissy, is that kink in the game? I'd rather enjoy playing that.
Do your parents know you are on adult sites like this?
