Thanks for replying, that's does sound cool. Not trying to sound too apologetic about my previous post, it's just that a great satisfaction I got from your game was that both MC and FMC were fully invested and excited about their "machinations", and that it really "spiced up" their own love life instead of replacing it with something different. In these games this is a take that rarely stands for long, from what I've seen. Most often there's the "spiral out of control" trope and the MC taking the back seat, or turning to cheating on the FMC, while enjoying her only through others, with the focus shifting away from their physical intimacy as a couple.MCs machinations to set FMC to want to flirt/play with others will have unintended consequences of her wanting to share him too, as you noted was hinted at at the firepit![]()
My fantasy, however unrealistic it may seem, is that a couple can share and even push each other's limits without any of them ever seeming uncaring, or losing intimacy, or even transferring part of that intimacy to others (flings remain casual). Think you got it just right with the entire firepit episode, including the scene with the drunk man - the only "clouds on the horizon" is that all that fun resulted in them coming home drunk and exhausted and going straight to bed, and what could have been a kinky episode between them, stemming from their conversation about the phone messages, ended up with the MC just jerking of thinking about his wife with another guy. I stress that this is just how it struck me personally, and probably just because it was the final scene of the update, feeling like there was something "less" there, than on their previous fiery exchanges. Even if she only kept teasing as he jerked, putting his thoughts into dialogue instead, it would have felt like a shared thing. As others already pointed out, it doesn't feel the same way to everyone and especially if the story resumes their previous connection it won't even stand out.
Best of luck with your game!
