I love: 1. Your focus on the small cast of characters, so we get to know them really well 2. The high number and impact of player choices 3. That there are two relationship routes for each character that even blend over 4. The strong emotional and complex relationships between all characters (also between the girls) 5. The overall high quality (writing, visual, spelling...)
If the remaining days turn out as great as the first 4 ones, the final game will be better than Acting Lessons, Being a DIK, Depraved Awakening, Dracu-Riot! ... and every other visual novel that I've ever played.
There are 2 things I would like to see in the future: 1. More Humor: It's hard to come up with good jokes, when you don't have a natural talent for it, but I would love to see some funny scenes with the girls. 2. More details about the characters: I would like to get to know them better. What do they love and hate? What kind of music to they like? What do the girls like except hanging out at the pool, running, taking a shower, watching movies and going to the mall? Of course not as bland exposition, but weaved into scenes or maybe into the environment? All the environments are pretty clean and impersonal right now. There could be posters, pictures, books/CDs lying around... that give cues about their preferences and background.
Do you have previous experiences as a writer? You definitely know how to craft dramatic scenes and fraught relationships.
I'm glad you liked Summer Scent and I can assure you that I intend to keep and even up if possible the quality of the content and of the overall game in the future versions.
I have some already planned scenes with that kind of content for V0.5. However, they won't be available on all paths. The player will have to play more than just one path to truly understand the characters.
I have been crafting stories as an amateur for a long time now but Summer Scent is the first work I publish. It's also the first time I write in English.
As far as I know I can't simply publish patches, the engine doesn't really allow it. You will have to redownload the entire game each time. I thought about publish updates in the form of folders that you would add to the base game but it's not really intuitive and suitable for all players.
To be fully fair, like 100% fair, I wasn't expecting a well thought-out story like this. I'm curious to see what happens and I hope you get to finish this. Big ups The Naughty Captain.

Hello JackN,
Thank you for your kind words.

I'll try to stay worthy of your praise!
Thank you!
So true! There is a scene in the blend-over relationship route that nearly moved me to tears. So well done indeed!
Very well done so far, Good Interesting, emotional story, Deep Char's. Looking foreward to seeing more!!
Thank you for your kind words!
Amazing story, looking forward to more keep up the good work!
Question: For updates do we have to redownload the whole thing or do we get a small file to add to the folder that exsists
Thank you!
As far as I know I can't simply publish patches, the engine doesn't really allow it.
You will have to redownload the entire game each time.
I thought about publish updates in the form of folders that you would add to the base game but it's not really intuitive and suitable for all players.
Makes sense, keep up the good work!
How do you make these type of games?
Renpy + Daz Studio + a lot of work. ;p
mmmmmm i might make a game! what are the main apps you need to use?
As I said : Renpy for the engine and Daz studio for the rendering, if you want to make 3DCG like in Summer Scent. :)
MMMMMMM sorry for al the questions but do you have any apps that are sutible for chromebook?
I don't think so, sorry!
Work with what you have. I'm sure you can make something out of it.
it will not let me go father then day

Thank you =)
I do my best to write a decent story.
I'm glad you liked it!
Une idée sur la date de sortie de la version gratuite ?
La v0.3.5 deviendra accessible a tous quand sortira la V0.4.
Probablement vers mi avril.
For the first experience you did it really good. Keep doing games, I want see a large project of your hand <3
Thank you ! I'm already working on day 2. I hope you'll enjoy it as much !
