HTML In Their Own Hands [v0.1.4] [Surprise & Delight Media]

[Feyschek]

All
I am doing is asking for more varied ways to play the game on a fix the relationship path. It seems this path has the least content

I don't want to sound a little strange, but while playing the game, I realized one thing.
The author of the game is clearly targeting other game content and which one will be added first.

I think the path of loyalty is not in the first place now, so the only way to change the vector of development is to become a very fat sponsor of the project.
Alas, such a harsh reality of such games, they are primarily aimed at those who bring the main income to the author of the game.

Therefore, the wishes of one player do not make sense, unless you are a cow for the project (I think you understood what I meant).

Not asking for dates for release ect. But a weekly update ect would be nice. I get them
For the 4 other games i support monetarily. If the developer wants more support be more open with what he can do and what to expect. Working on two games at one time is hard. Dont tell us i will release one game upate for each game each other month. But then also when he does release an update get the foundations all in place - all areas of the apt in play, more ways to help solve the wifes issues with him being a lazy bum. That would not be hard to add at all. Then expand the paths. I would love to see more swinger content more wife using fuckr ect. But get the foundation fixed so all paths have a good feel to them. And yes I saw more of this i would be open to paying more, and he would get more people
Paying. Because alot of the stuff i see online is it doesnt feel ready for release and its grindy, and if you have the foundations in place with more ways to satisfy the wifes needs the grindy feel would go away.
and as for the last concern - the mc not being upset with his wife and best friend and vocalizing it (if the player wants) has a really bad feel. I have done many pts and even in a hotwife, a cheating wife and a swinger path i cant see anyone being happy with the wife fucking his friend all week and her not sleeping in their bed. That is marriage / friendship ending shit . When that occurs the game should end with her leaving the mc with his former best friend.

Therefore, the wishes of one player do not make sense, unless you are a cow for the project (I think you understood what I meant).

I completely understand. But i will say with what im seeing in the lack of progress lack of updates and failure to communicate with the fans for weeks and months at a time i would be afraid to give more than tepid support . And yes i am a paid supporter of the game and have been for some time. But since the team making this broke up the releases and development have significantly slowed. I see tons of potential here. There is so much in this game that could be done with it.

It all depends on the person (in this case, the developer).
He can have a dialogue or constructive conversation with the players, or he can just make a game and earn money.

No matter what he does, the main thing is to create a good start, as you wrote, do you know why? To create a fan base or sponsors, and then slowly continue working on the game.

After all, the passion for development goes on in the first hours or days when a project is created, then it becomes a routine.
I'm talking about my own example.

Therefore, my advice to you is, if you see that everything is bad, just look for another option.
(In this case, it is better to look for other projects and other developers that you want to support or give advice to.)

The thing is this project is very different than so many out there and i see so much potential. And it has some rough edges that if cleaned up would make it a top game in my opinon. I have been following this group since before itoh came out. Ihoh is really good, very solid foundation ect. I want to see this suceede the concept the interface the entire structure is top notch. The foundation needs shored up. Need to make all paths viable to open and then expand.

so many others complain of different models in use, race of the males the personality of the wife. Those things are not important in my opinion its the foundation and story devlopment the great format of the game ect. And i want to try to give postive feeback so the developer can get more followers and a more consistant release of updates.

hey guys, you guys know any game that got netorare while mc drunk and play game like spin bottle or strip card or sum like that?

That's fair. There's a sound business philosophy to "Under-promise. Over-deliver". And I feel like the status updates are really doing the opposite of that. Clarity and setting deliverable expectations are important in any venture where people are giving you support.
I was just joking earlier because what you posed as a question turned into a series of specific requests.

I've got my own (fingers crossed) future development preferences/hopes for this game too, of course.

Well, as a matter of fact.....

lol

I mean, are you being sarcastic? That scenario is in like... all of these games.

In this game at least, well I'm not sure if you consider extramarital sex with permission to be "netorare" (I hate the pretentious definitions, like netotorini is when your wife gets banged while eating rotini pasta salad, but only if your mom knows). But this game has a drinking/strip poker section on all paths and the wife gets banged by some dude afterwards on the Open and Cuck paths.

If it strictly has to be cheating you can still do it on the "make it work" path. Though the dev claims that's a bug.
Make It Work Path strip-poker cheating:
-Select to see the wife's content. This won't work otherwise.
- Select "Make it work" on your second relationship discussion after researching the various relationship types on the pc that appear after your first relationship conversation.
- Make sure wife's satisfaction is at 0 before Brian's visit (he will text you on a Friday when wife satisfaction is at 55 or less). Any satisfaction below 10 may work, but 0 to be on the safe side. Note: If Brian texts you on Friday and you're not below 10, just ignore the text till Saturday. It'll be gone when you check your phone again. You can then play through till the next Friday, giving you more time to hit 0. He'll text again that Friday.
-When Brian visits: Drink at your apartment till wife is blackout drunk (may or may not be required).
- After the "strip poker" show, pass out drunk in your bed instead of banging the wife. She'll end up banging Brian in the next room & a conversation will happen in the morning. But then the game acts as if nothing ever happened here, forgetting the whole incident.
[Note: I might save before passing out, just in case. Or better yet, before the three of you start drinking. In my experience, it happens each and every time in this scenario. But better to back-up, just in case there's some RNG involved.

Ive never gotten the best friend visit on a save the marriage pt how does that trigger

 

[Deleted member 8077705]

There should be a brian visit even if the satisfaction is high and then the wife doesnt cheat. And yes I hate that his best friend destroys his wife all week and there is nothing as a repercussion. Personally I think the game should end with the mc throwing out his wife and “best” friend for that

And what things would you like to see in the game. Again all i want are the functions available in the game to work properly on every path. I do like that if you try hard it takes almost 2 months game time to get the wife to 100 in all stats.
But I hate that even at 100s she still goes to a massage parlor and gets her clit rubbed even at 100s. Have the massage end before she turns over when its that high. So as playing the mc you get less of a feeling that she is just there for the money and has no real feelings for the husband.
I would love to help plan this game out, ive tried writting very short games like this and am just not good at that. Ive tried both renpy and twine. Even downloaded and played with DAZ. Getting ready to try an intro python class. But programing has never been a strong point of mine even playing with dos in the 70s

"Twine" is a fairly lightweight engine and a special course is not needed to make such games.

Well ive not even figured out how to get buttons to work in the left side bar area…..

It depends on which buttons you want to make work there.
The Internet is full of guides and explanations. Even I am a person who does not know English.

I was able to understand and figure everything out, I think you can too.

 

[Deleted member 8077705]

Thanks for the positive thoughts. Ive been playing around with it - im more of a guy that needs to read it on paper then have someone tell me or show me. But Im learning

It's in my instructions above. You don't want to do it since it goes against your goals. The instructions were for that other poster.

I've already posted my preferences and feedback here. Too many times. lol. Please don't take this offensively. Even though progress has been slow & estimated release dates should be a lot more conservative than what is being posted on Patreon, I'm sure the dev wants to be in control of his own game. I know I would. Maybe try practicing creating your own? You're trying to learn some of the elements so that's probably the best way. Or even mod this or other existing games yourself to learn.

This game's focus is mainly on different forms of cheating & extramarital affairs, whether cognizant or not. And while there is a potential gold-star 200% NTR-free path in the "Make It Work" route, I don't see it being a big focus for major developments any time soon, based on the number of other routes and development speed. I've just selected for the wife not to accept those massages, since you have control of that decision. But I'm sure you can mod your copy for the option to not even pop with high enough satisfaction, love, etc. Could be a good way to learn.

Thanks thats a great idea

I have tried all pts so far. I just like to see all the given brances have the proper outcomes

 

[Gotcha01]

[Deleted member 8077705]
