Hey dude. Don't know what you're going through, but whatever it is, I hope you come out of it okay. Take as much time away as you need. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say we won't mind if you need a break.
Hi, bought this game here on itch.io some time ago and only recently played it. It's really captivating and I'm hooked since starting it. The scene with Darci and coffee is just hillarious. I would love to see updates, but that you feel well is much more important. Take all the time you need.
You doing okay man? Read about your tough times and I hope you aren't pushing yourself. I started a support thread below if you haven't seen it yet. Quite a few people in the community around your game have posted replies to it as well. Hopefully you read it and it helps you feel a bit better. Just know that there are good people here who support you.
Great freaking job im hooked. I see from the comments your not doing so well and i hope you get rest and recover and anything your going through. I wanna keep playing. How many episodes do you have planned? Once i get money id def. Support your patreon.
I love this game. It immediately starts off funny and engaging. Only thing comparable to it, to me, is Once in Lifetime and I've caught two references to that already and thought they were great. The art, animations, and the writing for the girls is superb. Cannot get enough of Skyler and Darci. Looking forward to some more Riley and hoping to get close to Lizzie as well. A+ effort on this one in every regard.
For everyone wondering about updates, please be patient. Jestur is currently dealing with some rather serious personal issues, and updates are probably the last thing on his mind right now.
That being said, I would like to ask anyone who reads this post to wish him well. Showing him the community around his game cares about him may make a huge difference to him right now.
So Jestur, if you read this post, please take your time to overcome the obstacles life has placed in your path. The game can wait until you are ready to return to it. Best wishes to you man.
Jestur, I wish you well and I hope whatever you are going through comes to past. Do not worry about the needs of us, we can be patient and wait. Your needs are much more important.
Sorry to hear life gave you a curve ball Jestur. Well wishes and good blessing hope everything settles for you. You do amazing work. Take your time we can wait.
Hey Jestur, I do not know you, but I do know about obstacles. and if yours are anywhere near the same as my own, i will say that sometimes the victory is in the struggle. Take care of whatever it is that you must, You have created something wonderful here in this game. So much in fact, that I felt compelled to send you some encouragement , This is because when i was feeling at my lowest, it was this story, that I happened to download, and by the end of the night I felt so much better. Your content helps people. so the least we can do is help you in return. Good luck and I hope everything works out for you.
Jestur. I love this game. The story is amazing. The subtle and not so subtle innuendos. Love it. The characters are amazing. I am so drawn in, wondering who it is in the mask at the power plant.
And when is the MC going to go for Tiffany?
And Janelle!!! Omg!!
So many things on the go!!
I cannot wait to see the next part. But I will happily wait for you to get through the obstacles in your way. Take care of yourself. We will be waiting for when you are ready to come back.
I wish you the best man I won't pretend to know what your going through but I do know that somethings can lead to a dark place and the key to getting out of it is to find the thing or someone that can pull you out for me it was stories like your game the sex is nice but the story itself is better written then many and I mean many other games like this you have a great talent I hope you can get well soon and I don't mind the waiting there are even some Manga that take a year to update its like opening a candy bar for the first time. It was worth the wait :)
My best wishes to Jestur as well. Not aware of what kind of problem life has thrown at him, but I hope he manages to get through it and rise back even stronger than before.
I thought it was, but I went to patreon and read that the developer is going through personal issues and is also feeling unwell. As much as I want to play the game too, I think it's best that we wait till he is feeling better to continue the game :)
Is there anyway that I can download this game through mega site?? Coz it's more reliable than normal download as it allows me to download from the same place where it got stopped!!
I have a thing about sharing links in the comment sections, and clicking on them. Please be careful in the future, you never know if it is someone is phishing or whatever.
No, it's pretty much a linear path where your choices affect how relationships progress. The only deviation from this path is when you decide to either accept or decline some options, which either lets you go somewhere with someone, or you continue on your way without joining them.
Don't get me wrong, it's still a great game. It's just not a sandbox style where you get to choose which location you go to whenever you want.
This is one of the funniest porn games I've played. The sex scenes are great, the characters are well written, and the soundtrack is really good. I can't wait for the next update
That...that is kink shaming...I mean FF is the most common fetish after anal, and our neurons are connected in such a way that feet are basically in the same section as genetilia, so for a lot of people a mix up happens, so even from the evolutionary perspective it's perfectly normal
well yea, but it ends the same way, saying it was all a joke "because she wouldn't believe me anyways without any proof" (unless i'm missing something)
11/10. I became attached with the background sound in that scene with skylar in the woods, its so relaxing. Is it possible to know the title of that song ?
I think you are talking about "indigo - eveningland" (if you use something like shazam it tells you "Claudia Caminotti - You Broke My Heart" tho) just looked it up myself
edit: maybe you mean a different scene, not sure anymore, if thats not it, tell me and i give it another look (looked up most of the songs already :D)
Do you know the name of the song that plays when you take a ride with Skyler in her car? That one has been bugging me, I know it from somewhere but I cant put a name to it.
Yes, it is. Sorry, I got really sick and was in the hospital and stuff but I'm now working on it again. Shouldn't be too much longer before testing and proofreading.
it's all good mate, I just read the Patreon, and even if it's redundant, I do hope you take care, wish you the best of health since your personal life comes first. Cheers <3
I'm not too far along into chapter 2. But I wanted to say what I think of this visual novel so far. The characters are well done, even the MC is decent. Even the unusual twist (I won't spoil any of the plot) is surprisingly not bad at all :) I'll be keeping an eye on this game for any future updates.
Just finished up to the current Episode 3, Part 2 and am completely hooked. Don't let the smexxxxy pix over there on the right fool you; there's way more to Ripples than that.
Excellent characters with personalities and stories of their own, an intriguing plot, and plenty of relationship/H opportunities that mesh organically with the overall story.
I'm most eager to follow the continuation of the tale!
I never expected to find this much of a plot in an H-filled visual novel.
I would have to add that Jestur has more literary skill than what is found in 99% of H-filled visual novel on the net and in most non-h manga.
Too bad Jestur is not working for Netflix or one of the other new networks.
~Spoliers~
So far, most of the plot twists were expected, but then I am also a writer. It's a given that I would recognize the mechanics of writing that are being used.
The fourth wall break regarding the protagonist's predicament was well-placed. Nice way to lampshade your own story.
Great 'third-act' cliff hanger.
At first, it was irking to see the protagonist recognize some of the people from the past, but not all of them, but then you have to consider that the protagonist should never be smarter/more-talented than your average audience member.
Protagonists with an above average intelligence kills the ability for an average audience member to identity with protagonist. Best to work with the shortcomings and insecurities of an average audience member rathar than against them.
I would not have foreshadowed the possible identity of the ninja though. Even if it was used as an intentional misled, leaving that's character's indentity blank would have been better. The greatest weapon against an audience is their own curiousity/guesswork. Keep them guessing by not foreshadowing, intentional misled or feinting a curve ball.
Riley's ulterior motive was a dead giveaway. Any chick that tries to seduce a man who she has just met and asked for help (while acting weak) is most likely feinting weakness, due to an ulterior motive. And given the story's plot her ulterior motive was easy to guess at.
When planning out character designs and plot builds you have to keep in mind, 'what would people really do if X was actually happening'.
Would a teacher really try to seduce a student? Sure it can happen, but with everythinhg that is happening what are the odds that this is ALSO happening? It makes me wonder if she is hiding something? Maybe she is in on it. Maybe she keeps asking the protagonist to leave the past in the past as a deterent to keep him from finding secrets the bad guys at that company don't want him to know.
Also, the blackmail thing is probably tied-in. If not, then that sub-plot should not exist. Too many complications dilute the impact.
Lastly, is this a harem or you aiming for a serious literary piece that just happens to involve lots of sex?
Why is every single women in the world after the Protagonist's dick? It's a giving that the Protagonist has to be seen as desired by the opposite sex, but when every women on earth wants him, plausibility becomes an issue.
It is nice that at least one of the more clique tropes of hentai and early manga was lampshaded, during the landlady/massage scene.
It gives credit to the idea that you are more than a little self aware. As writers it is expecfted (by non-writers) that we should aim to please a large percentage of an audience group, keep in mind that you can't please everyone without turning your story in a bowl of random objects that don't fit together. Too many flavors dilute the impact and kill any merit a story could have.
You have to ask yourself: am I trying to write a story that pleases everyone or am I trying to write a story that fits what I believe a good story should be? Where you choose to draw that line dictates a large amount of a story's shelflife.
A story that tries to please everyone is far less rememberable than a story that tries to please no one.
Most of the unforgetable films and stories ever written did not aim to please the audience. Surprisingly, enough this even includes children's films.
I would only ask that you do not stray from your goals/ideals as a writer, to grab at low hanging fruit.
Strange turn of events upon events that will have happened in the future past. Cool concept and endless possibilities for the storyline. Skylar is my favourite character so far. Waiting for the next update
Totally new to this sort of internet stuff,but this is class.Great story line, lots of interesting characters,not just one sex scene after another.Leaves you wanting more(and I don't mean more sex,I mean more of the story.)

Hey Jestur I was just wondering how would I be able to download episode 4 when it releases for free. Does it update automatically or will I need to re-install?
P.s This game is amazing!
It doesn't automatically update. You'll have to download the new version.
Was this inspired by the TV series Dark by any chance?
It does have Dark ring to it. Can't wait to be my own father or something ;)
For some reason this gem had no presence on VNDB. I endeavored to stand up a decent entry for it this week, but it will need to be updated with new content and intel from Ep 4 over the next few weeks. https://vndb.org/v33448
Oh nice! Thanks ThorsHamster 😀

Thanks!
Hi, bought this game here on itch.io some time ago and only recently played it. It's really captivating and I'm hooked since starting it. The scene with Darci and coffee is just hillarious. I would love to see updates, but that you feel well is much more important. Take all the time you need.
New Update is out on Patreon and Subscribestart for early access!
Public Release here will be Jan 30th.
You doing okay man? Read about your tough times and I hope you aren't pushing yourself. I started a support thread below if you haven't seen it yet. Quite a few people in the community around your game have posted replies to it as well. Hopefully you read it and it helps you feel a bit better. Just know that there are good people here who support you.
I'm alright. A little up and down. Thanks for asking.
Take your time and don't push yourself too hard man. Your health is more important than the game is.
Jestur, i hope you will get better soon.
what happened to him, is he ok?
Great freaking job im hooked. I see from the comments your not doing so well and i hope you get rest and recover and anything your going through. I wanna keep playing. How many episodes do you have planned? Once i get money id def. Support your patreon.
Any updates boss really like it.
Please see my post below.
I love this game. It immediately starts off funny and engaging. Only thing comparable to it, to me, is Once in Lifetime and I've caught two references to that already and thought they were great. The art, animations, and the writing for the girls is superb. Cannot get enough of Skyler and Darci. Looking forward to some more Riley and hoping to get close to Lizzie as well. A+ effort on this one in every regard.
For everyone wondering about updates, please be patient. Jestur is currently dealing with some rather serious personal issues, and updates are probably the last thing on his mind right now.

Jestur, best wishes to you friend. You are a brilliant creator!
I hope things get better soon.
Hope things look up Jestur, you do amazing work!
Sorry to hear life gave you a curve ball Jestur. Well wishes and good blessing hope everything settles for you. You do amazing work. Take your time we can wait.
Hey Jestur, I do not know you, but I do know about obstacles. and if yours are anywhere near the same as my own, i will say that sometimes the victory is in the struggle.

Jestur. I love this game. The story is amazing. The subtle and not so subtle innuendos. Love it. The characters are amazing. I am so drawn in, wondering who it is in the mask at the power plant.
And when is the MC going to go for Tiffany?
And Janelle!!! Omg!!
So many things on the go!!
I cannot wait to see the next part. But I will happily wait for you to get through the obstacles in your way. Take care of yourself. We will be waiting for when you are ready to come back.

We're all cheering for you, mate!
Please everyone please tell me if this game has sex drama or not i don't like it.
because I'm very interested in the story This made me more emotional with the game. And I don't like some kind of depressing content. So I asked first
your question does not make sense. rephrase and punctuate please.
think OP means is there NTR in the story?
In that case, no, there is no one cheating on the main character
I'm sorry, I just started practicing English.
I'm not good at it yet
The scenes are not you every day h scenes! They're awesome
Anyone know how to update the android ver for the future
Btw anyone know how to delete duplicate saves
On android the saves are located in /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.jestur.ripples
There you can delete single saves. They are named by the page and number on that page.
Thank u very much
Oof theres nothing on my data lol
Edit:found a solution lol
Great game. Looking forward for future updates of the game.
pregnancy?
is this game dead? it cant be dead, need to know more of whats going on!
I thought it was, but I went to patreon and read that the developer is going through personal issues and is also feeling unwell. As much as I want to play the game too, I think it's best that we wait till he is feeling better to continue the game :)
Completely understandable. He should take care of himself before others.
Is there anyway that I can download this game through mega site?? Coz it's more reliable than normal download as it allows me to download from the same place where it got stopped!!
There is a Mega link for Episode 3 Part 2 on Patreon
Can U send me the link, I couldn't find it!
I have a thing about sharing links in the comment sections, and clicking on them.
Please be careful in the future, you never know if it is someone is phishing or whatever.
Here is the link for the PC download.
https://mega.nz/file/UoYSnBCS#xesC-qEAdyiWrANrIQpfMsvfEVZUqqqgeMaslDktFIs
Let me know if that is not what you were looking for
I am looking for Android actually!
Here it is https://mega.nz/file/E0gXlIqQ#Gsb-KkcPBGUMaHYt8dSPYhUCmPkzZBBhendf9SR_RY8
And sorry for waiting, couldn't really share a link to a porn game while in the office lol
Hope you enjoy the game as much as I did, it's awesome
And thanks for the warning!
When the ep 4 will release ?
Best girl Darci!
It is like sandbox game?
No, it's pretty much a linear path where your choices affect how relationships progress. The only deviation from this path is when you decide to either accept or decline some options, which either lets you go somewhere with someone, or you continue on your way without joining them.
Don't get me wrong, it's still a great game. It's just not a sandbox style where you get to choose which location you go to whenever you want.
This is one of the funniest porn games I've played. The sex scenes are great, the characters are well written, and the soundtrack is really good. I can't wait for the next update
Does this game have any foot fetish content?
As I remember no.
listen bro, not kink shaming but wtf
That...that is kink shaming...I mean FF is the most common fetish after anal, and our neurons are connected in such a way that feet are basically in the same section as genetilia, so for a lot of people a mix up happens, so even from the evolutionary perspective it's perfectly normal
wait really? Welp fuck me anally man
wait really? Welp fuck me anally man
What's the song that plays when you take a ride with Skyler in her car? I know it from somewhere but I can't seem to place it.
why do i have to lie to Darci about the powerplant story to be a joke... i hate people backing down like that :/
Other than that i really love the game so far :D
You don't have to lie. There is a choice.
well yea, but it ends the same way, saying it was all a joke "because she wouldn't believe me anyways without any proof" (unless i'm missing something)
The MC will keep pushing it on the Truth choice and the MC doesn't say he's joking any more.
Does that happen in the same event?
11/10. I became attached with the background sound in that scene with skylar in the woods, its so relaxing. Is it possible to know the title of that song ?
I think you are talking about "indigo - eveningland" (if you use something like shazam it tells you "Claudia Caminotti - You Broke My Heart" tho) just looked it up myself
edit: maybe you mean a different scene, not sure anymore, if thats not it, tell me and i give it another look (looked up most of the songs already :D)
Do you know the name of the song that plays when you take a ride with Skyler in her car? That one has been bugging me, I know it from somewhere but I cant put a name to it.
the metal one on the radio is "Alexander Nakarada - Metalicious"
the one after stopping is "Beautiful Acoustic Guitar Melody by WinnieTheMoog" (isnt on youtube tho, so look in the credits for the link)
(if you open scripts.rpa with a texteditor and search for it you can also easily copy the link to any of the songs)
Thanks, trying to figure out the song name was driving me insane, lol.
Darci is hot af 10/10
Is Ep 4 almost coming?
Yes, it is. Sorry, I got really sick and was in the hospital and stuff but I'm now working on it again. Shouldn't be too much longer before testing and proofreading.
it's all good mate, I just read the Patreon, and even if it's redundant, I do hope you take care, wish you the best of health since your personal life comes first. Cheers <3

The new update keeps saying app not installed on mobile
If you delete the old download and then at the new one it'll work. Just don't uninstall the game
