great job on chapter 4! very happy with it. i did hotwife but i did cheat so i'll have to face those repercussions. i don't think she cheated but still wonder a bit. that's what zoe and whoever is manipulating her want. great writing.

i wouldn't mind having some way to see the greyed out scenes just to know what other paths exist. i have 3 greyed out.

Thank you! Glad you appreciate the work we put in, and the way we tell the story. Means a lot.

I am not sure with the way the gallery functions if that is possible, but we can check if there is a way to unlock them.

I wanna impregnate Blair and humiliate Tony in the process mostly because Blair is one of the hottest girls in this

A big fan of Blair myself. That was a favorite of mine when I was rendering the scene. I just find her personality attractive, and that ass! hahaha. Stay tuned for how her relationship with Tony turns out. I am sure not many people chose this, but we did leave a way for them to patch things up, if you decide you want to help.

Some inconsistency in my playthrough, but dev mention it might be a bug, on hotwife swinging route i choose for MC to cheat with Zoe at the beginning and later that nurse and student girl before they became swingers, but when Johnny went to mc house for the dinner with that girl Mary got mad afterwards finding out mc fucked her but when admitting previous affairs he mentioned Rachael as if Mary didn't know even though he called and asked her for opinion/permission.
Also dialogue during talk about cheating seems like that game bugged out in same way like they are not on swinging/hotwife path, for example mc got mad Mary dressed in that transparent mesh shirt like they are not in that showing off lifestyle or it might be that Mary got mad not knowing about student girl, just to reports since devs are active in this thread.

We are glad to interact and answer questions. We are veterans of F95, and it was this site that inspired us to make the game. We are fans ourselves. Will always interact with the people here, I really enjoy it.

As to the anal. The way I pictured it, was they hadn't thought much about it to this point. Gabriel and Bella bringing it up kind of brought it to mind, and they decided to give it a try. They are there to try new things afterall, and gain new experiences. They will be trying it together in the future, if it was opened up, so stay tuned for that. We had so many other scenes in this chapter, that there are some we decided to hold off on until later.

All good. It doesn't worry me if they do or don't do anal, it was just to me it seem to be a bit off the way it was handled. Not a big deal. Keep up the good work.

In truth, 99.999% of all depictions of anal sex in these stories is off. No lube, no prep, no vaginitis, no mention of increased GI complications, no mention of increased HPV infection, increased UTI risk....shall I go on? I'm not picking in this game in particular, but seeing this just triggered a response.

And in follow up, I wonder just how many youngsters playing these games actually believe the testicles contain semen and can be emptied? Or that the withdrawal method actually works in reducing the chances of pregnancy? heh...I'm on a roll! Maybe I should stop.

You are spot on, but it doesn't work to do all that in the VN format. My original post, I was talking about the way the couple handle it at the Swingers club and afterwards was off not the actual act.

i like how the story was told and every explanation that the characters had to tell all throughout the game.
i hope this game get a lot of support for those who has the ability to do so.
i hope the person, team and or group who made this doesn't run out of ideas so that the story progresses.
i also hope that this game would be made available over Steam so that I can support if from there.

Got an exception here. I don't think I had any scene with Zoe?

I know, my brother from down under. I was taking advantage of your post. I do wonder, however, just how many might be swayed by false tropes that accompany these games (and porn in general).

It's a known bug and they are on it.
It is referring to Zoey and should be written as zfblow in the script.

I don't think I recall the choice of letting them patch things up or not, where is it?

 

[blademaster89]

Wouldn't it be convenient to play the game and get the scenes unlocked? We prefer to keep it locked for a reason. We have scenes that are path specific and some people wouldn't want it to be there.

And there are also those who wish to see what they had missed without going through the grind all over again, regardless of how easy or non-existent that grind might be. Or there are those who don't want to go through the grind at all and wish to see the scenes alone. . It is always better to provide an option, however redundant it may be cause there will be someone who will use it.

 

[oktabitt]

There is any walkthrough or any scene unlocker?

 

[robrize2169]

ok so just finished chapter 4 after replaying it from the beginning of chapter 3 since i seem to have deleted my save from end of chapter 3. only thing i can think of but its been a long time and i had forgotten if i did that or not..old man memory i guess. anyway, i have 2 different routes, cheating route and faithful/swinging route and i saw a few different scenes on the faithful route which made me enjoy it more. sure the cheating route has more sex scenes and drama but i prefer playing these types of games as a faithful couple and have any swinging stuff be with both of the couple doing things together. now at the end there..i was a little confused, i see there is a bug that causes Zoe to be referred to as mc cheating with her when he actually didn't but i saw the rest of the scene using renpy mod so no biggie. but Mary still accuses mc of cheating on her and acts like he did even though he says he didn't. so that scene kinda makes no sense on the faithful route. anyway hopefully the dev can sort out the bug for the next release and perhaps work that scene a bit so that it makes more sense. if Mary doesn't believe mc she should say so. but she doesn't but acts like she thinks he cheated..i assume Zoey told her he is cheating since she seems to be trying to break them up with all her actions. can't wait to find out who is behind this. seems like Zoey is working for some guy. my guess is that it is someone related to the abuse Mary took when she was younger and he is behind all the shit going on. hope to see more of that part of the story next update. mystery is fine..but don't wait too long to get it sorted like with Mike. once they found out he was behind the blackmailing, he was offed pretty quick, same with Charlie.
anyway, not meaning to criticize, but the story is fun and i enjoyed both paths.

Yeah I’ve been giving a lot of thought who is pulling the strings. I loved the cliffhanger ending. Their are a couple of options
1. Are we sure the old man that Mary was happening is really dead?
2. Are we sure the friend who died in battle is dead?
3. This is the one I’m putting the most stock in (even though there is a 99.9% chance I’m wrong) is the old man that the MC meets at the beginning is the father of the soldier that died and is getting back at the MC for leaving him. The problem with that theory is why wouldn’t he be going after Johnny (the other war buddy) too. This is just a great story and may be the best thought out storyline I’ve seen in any game. Just don’t pull a “Lost” ending on us

There were some bugs we found, and unfortunately a short part I didn't add in that I needed to. It has been added, so the confrontation dialogues should be more accurate once we patch it.

The student girl part. Mary was not aware of MC sleeping with her before the dinner, so this is why she was mad at him, as she figured it out. So regardless of their lifestyle, this upset her, and so she tried to get back at MC for it.

I was actually quite proud of the way we handled the first anal, by having the guy ease her into it.

This is what makes the story good. Of course she would get mad. Is it rational? Maybe but then again jealousy is rarely rational. Another well written part. When you start fooling around like this without talking the rules of the game this could (and should) happen

Thank you for the praise! We have a set ending for the game, it will not run forever, so hopefully we won't run out of ideas before the end.

Not sure about Steam, but we will look into it. Might be more headaches than I am willing to go through, but will see abou that.

 

[simarimas]

It wasn't a direct choice, but more a chance to not expose him for cheating to Blair, which may give you a chance to help them.
