VN Ren'Py Completed Exploring the Big Apple [Ep.7 Fixed] [Dimajio333/SadPepper]

[Andromort]

Looks interesting, but two questions.
1) How boring is this game in vanila path?
2) Is there a "Cheating husband, loyal wife" path?

2) Is there a "Cheating husband, loyal wife" path?

1) Obviously that's subjective, but the cheating or sharing aspect is the main focus of the game, so although there is a vanilla path that has content, it's not as much content as the non-vanilla paths.
2) No, there's only cheating on the side of the wife (or any sort of action outside of the marriage, whereas the husband only ever has sex with the wife).

1) enough.
2) no.

I wish Emma had finally divorced Patrick and married Martin. They were the perfect couple.

only if Emma cheats on Martin cause fuck that guy

Emma fools around and Martin catches them, so... Martin takes pictures!

IMHO best game so far by sadpepper, only critic is the finale a little too quick. I loved the plot where the wife (beatiful!) don't goes a street whore but choose her male for a free pass. Good story well written, real and so arousing. Seeing your wife becoming model showiing her body to all is one of the hottest fantasy.

Sadpepper balances his stories perfectly between the woman's temptation to explore and her partner's acceptance of her independence, while maintaining their life together.
An insecure and jealous man would lock away a beautiful wife, withering away both in liveliness and beauty. While a confident man would relish her blossoming in spirit and allure. It takes a very open-minded man to share her sexually. It would be his ultimate desire to watch his wife become the center of so many others' interests.

Golden words my dear BR, golden words! I dont know others case, but being a jealous man in 2025, with a pretty and modern wife, should be and hell. Lucky me I'm nor jealouse and possessive!

As far as I'm concerned; a man being dedicated to the happiness and well-being of one woman shows her the utmost respect. Likewise, a woman spurning the advances from all those horny men, honors his commitment to her. As such, women and men who recognize their inner base primate instincts, which desire sexual pleasure derived from "straying" outside of a couple's mutual bonds, such situations can present themselves, and could sometimes be entertained. All work and play is a boring prospect!
Such a man derives intense pleasure from seeing his woman in all kinds of possibilities. I'm sure many women think the same way.

Yep, In my mind is more a pleasure felt by men than women, but I'm not a woman and I can't answer. But I should ask to my honey.

Could it be that this was conditional on him leaving patreon?

No, there was no such condition; SadPepper left Patreon on their own accord.
We even offered to run the page for them, but they also refused that, citing personal reasons for closing it.

Source: I work closely with Fooxied and even pitched the idea of publishing EtBA in the first place.

 

[skyrfen]

Yeah, that actually sounds very likely. If you're working with a publisher, it would make sense that you aren't also distributing it elsewhere on your own terms.

If he's backed by a publisher, then there clearly was some kind of a contract signed. Maybe he receives a monthly stipend to produce AVNs, so he doesn't actually need the Patreon money to keep developing his AVNs + he gets more breathing room where he doesn't have to adhere to a "strict" monthly schedule.

If this is the case, then SadPepper should've just come out and say it. There's nothing wrong with admitting you burned out and need to take a step back to get your head back in the game. Especially between products.

As it stands, the silence and vagueness comes across as being butthurt about the latest project receiving negative reviews and criticism.

Steam does not care for publishing the game anywhere else (Patreon, itch, etc.) as long as it's not done for free - that's the only condition for publishing on Valve's platform.

The details of the contract are of course confidential but nowhere did we require for SP to produce anything as EtBA is a completed production. The deal was solely to acquire publishing rights for Steam, nothing else.

As for SadPepper, the decision to quit Patreon was entirely theirs. Hell, we were the ones trying to convince them to stay there, but alas what's done is done.

If you "speak" with him again, tell him we all* miss him, and wish him well.

Since the theme is NTR as the primary focus , Very nice game to play, it could even have more content with more characters etc getting involved I think.

I did a version of both paths , Vanillia - not that much fun really . cuckold is more perilous I believe , Cheating though .. Himm . Allot can be done with that yet overall rating from 1-10.

Graphics and Animation: 8
Story line , Creativity: 10
Mixture of Chracters: 8
Replay value : 7
Adaption using same characters in another game? : 10!

Overall Score : 8.6 Definietly worth playing . Good Job

 

[FreakFriday234445]

FYI for people who are trying to get the cheating path, all the comments that mention you must select the Amateur/Home Porn option when Emma sends the porn film are correct. But you also have to have corruption above >=9 at that point or else, even if you select Amateur/Home Porn, it will send you down the sharing path. The reason is because if you don't have corruption above >=9, you will miss out on a dialogue choice later on, where she sends you a threesome porn film, and where you have to select "no response" (or something along those lines) to cement the cheating path.

It's kinda super weird that Exploring the Big Apple gets a publisher-release on Steam, when the game got rushed to completion. The Steam page and Patreon promotion makes one think the story is rich or deep... which it isn't.

How long is a typical run? I have been watching this since it showed up on steam.

How long is a typical run? I have been watching this since it showed up on steam.

Depending on your immersion & reading speed. I'd say no more than 3 hours is necessary even with a casual pace of reading.

But the problem with the game isn't the length; it's the bumfucked and rushed ending that is completely unsatisfying on all ends.
