Project Update

The next 24hrs of game time is done. About 1k images and animations. Most of the preview images already teased will not be in this release. Those will be in the third (v0.6). So a good chunk of that release is, thankfully, already done.

The more I think about it, the more appropriate 20% increments are as they are natural spots in the story to pause on. So next update will be v0.4 and deals more with Viv and her mindset. After that will be v0.6 and deals more with Hutch (but not exclusively) and the limits of what he's willing to endure (if there are any). v0.8 builds towards the final climax (hehe) and of course, v1.0 deals with the end and the epilogue.

Curiosity question: Are you guys more engaged, more interested, in this story because there are no choices? Are other games more boring because every possibility exists and there is no mystery? Or is MHB just an exception and choices are always a high priority?

I don't want to derail this thread talking about other games, but there's a few well know games I've given up on because it was just to many paths and, even with a mod, I got knocked off the paths I wanted and was too frustrated to try and start over. I will mention an exception, Chasing Sunsets, by name cause it's my favorite. It essentially had three paths, which was good, but I didn't feel one ending was significantly different than the others (girl A, girl B, or both).

I choose not to have multiple paths because every event plays into the next so multiple paths would require, literally, multiple stand alone stories. Hutch couldn't bust out of the bathroom stall and bitch slap Chris without rewriting every scene that comes later. If my story is just an exception to the 'multiple paths' rule, then I'm happy to be that exception.

As always, thank for the overwhelming support, positive reviews, and lively debate.

Thank you for giving us the game and the great story!
I would like to ask you something: in the women's bathroom Christian tells Vivian that women have three places to put their dicks... "your mouth, your pussy, or your... (ass)" and she tells him STOP! In the future there will be anal sex for Vivian or she will sleep with some of Christian's clients and maybe a gangbang with double penetration... thanks.

I has already answered that is he is not to give any details of such information cause will damage the effect and impact of the story.

Choices with different outcomes are definitely better and honestly i tend to skip VN or just rush the play with the skip button.
What is different with yours is how well it is written and how well you have kept us wondering about certain aspects like what happened in that garden.
I am looking forward to the next update

Well , my only comment is: please do not rush things. You have made a impressive game from the start and I think you should really take all the time you need to review next part and adjust dialogues so that the keep immersive and balanced to the right spot (not too vanilla , not too much slutness from Vivian, and a lot of psychological tension). Good luck!

Perhaps when the game is fully completed, done and dusted, then maybe... you could add some alternate "What if" epilogues to expand the game world.
I would mind some what if moments like...
"What if Hutch grabbed the knife in the Kitchen?" or
"What if Hutch stepped out of the toilet and joined in for a threeway?" or
"What if Hutch accepted the anal offer?" or
"What if Hutch shouted at them to fuck more quieter in the bedroom?"

So many possibilities from this version alone! :)

I'm into all sorts of games. Do I develop an opinion over time about a game? Yes. Sometimes though, no matter my opinion, it's nice to read/play through a game where the author tells me a story and I just enjoy the story for what the author wanted me to see.
I do like games that have multiple paths, but I get bored with games that I need to play so many iterations to see all the content. That's more frustrating to me than enjoyable. In the end, make me laugh, make me cry, get me going, wrap it up as best as possible (or how you want it to end), and don't frustrate me by having to repeat a ton of activities to unlock the new content.
That's my 2 cents.

Please developer read my comment, I really like the first scene, I hope the developer adds sound to that scene. It's great when Hutch approaches the door and hears his wife's voice

I would have peed my pants if he said fuck quieter. Knock on the door if you are going to fuck my wife you could have the courtesy to keep it down I need some sleep.

This would require a complete rewrite of Hutch's character and the whole story. He's too much of a pushover and way too passive to do any of those things, but if he wasn't then the story wouldn't work at all.

That last one would be pretty damn funny though. "Hey Vivian you fucking slut, quit your moaning and screaming, I'm trying to sleep here!" :ROFLMAO:

Curiosity answer: There are very very few adult games that are actually worth playing (at least for picky people like me), but that doesn't take away from what your game has accomplished. I get sick of poorly written walls of text, your approach of "show, don't tell" (as much as possible) is a fresh breath of air. Quite enjoy the cinematic shots as well.

As for multiple paths, perhaps I'm in the minority, but I really don't care. The agency that a player has any given game is so small that creating another game for another path would be no different for me. Making a "choice" that branches off for a split-second only to converge again to the same path is not exactly my idea of "free will". A single path can make a story more coherent and immersive.

And I sure as hell don't enjoy needlessly clicking around the "gamified" world that is made up of a 2D image of a poorly designed map.

Thank you and I look forward to your future work.

Indeed, my thoughts exactly. At times, it felt as if I was watching an actual movie unfold before my eyes - in addition to the gameplay/narrative itself. The cinematic shots were appropriately timed as well to make the reader feel more immersed in the overarching narrative.

Indeed. While choice-based gameplay and different routes might encourage replayability at times, having a singular path can make the narrative more focused in a sense and not deviate too much/distract the player with too many unnecessary characters/sub-routes/etc which can sometimes disrupt the flow of the AVN. That is where oftentimes the applicability of a kinetic novel might be more beneficial to consider - i.e., given how a dev wants to structure the overall flow of their narrative.

I too, loved that scene myself. I got excited when I heard about Christian's proposition to Hutch about Vivian being his bunk-mate for the night :devilish: Very sexy scene overall and the fact they were going at it all night, and well into the early morning hours as well :love:

No You are absolutely right. One of the main reasons I connected with MHB right away apart from the fantastic renders, realistic dialogues, visual storytelling and you have an intriguing and noble attitude towards potential patrons is that this thing actually stood true to its name. A fucking visual NOVEL. Games like ORS that have interesting writing and great artwork get on my nerves so much because it feels like there is no fucking story. there is something for everybody. like how is it different from fan service. as a developer whats the story that you wanted to say? Anyway when you wrote you dont like too many choices and always play with a walkthrough. BOOM. Fell in love with you at that moment. ILY

For me, there's one thing that takes away "credibility" from the whole story. There aren't many situations that show me that Hutch and Vivian are married. If you take the text out of the story, there are no actions that make me think they are husband and wife (except when Vivian is supposed to touch his dick in bed and Hutch rejects her). They don't have sex, I think (I'm not sure) that they don't even kiss on the mouth.

That added to the "ultra-fast" start of the dinner at Christian's house. You arrive at your husband's boss's house, who you barely know, and for 20 or 30 minutes you're fucking him in the backyard WITH YOUR HUSBAND IN THE LIVING ROOM! Then you agree to sleep with his boss and spend the night moaning like crazy WITH YOUR HUSBAND ON THE COUCH. And to top it off you get up to go to the kitchen to get something to drink COMPLETELY NAKED and not content with that you fuck her boss again with YOUR HUSBAND IN THE NEXT ROOM.


I love the game because Vivian is very attractive. But I'm sorry, I've played it several times and each time it seems to make less sense to me. Vivian's regretful faces make me feel so sorry because it seems like she loves her husband. But everything she does shows me that she doesn't. Being objective, the character construction is not well done.

I agree this needs some explaining, which we will hopefully get in the next update when we will apparently have further insight into the wifes mindset. It cant just simply be "I love my husband so to keep him happy I am just gonna go fuck his boss". With the warnings from Hutch before the dinner and his hesitation when she is about to go into the bedroom for round 2 through to 20, she can not think this is all for him.

Simple explanation is that she might have the IQ of a potato chip.

You've seen them for six days and managed to uncover a marriage fraud! :rolleyes: Bravo!
After 22 years of marriage, it can happen that the flame just flickers and they no longer act like young teenagers in love,
and with the risk of losing his job behind him, Hutch must also be sparing with the use of his blue pills. :ROFLMAO:

Well Vivian thought Hutch was drunk and who said she wasn't betraying Hutch before?! We caught Vivian lying before and after the dinner.
Only because she said to Christian she never cheated on Hutch before, doesn't mean she's not lying again.
The eye contact between her and Marcel (afro american high-school basketball player) and the invitation to sit behind him during the play seems rather suspicious and suggests that something has already happened between the two of them. ( only a suspicion )

I'm sorry, I've played it several times and each time it seems to make less sense to me. Vivian's regretful faces make me feel so sorry because it seems like she loves her husband. But everything she does shows me that she doesn't. Being objective, the character construction is not well done.
We know only what we witnessed these 6 days, no more no less but some of you are damn profilers with the abillity to read face expressions and putting every word that has been said on the gold scale.

I'm not sure what you think was missing to 'show' they're married. What else should have been done or said to show that? Relationships can vary a lot, and if she's enjoying her cheating so much their physical relationship was likely not great in the first place.

this vn has varied reactions from different readers. its just them voicing their views but only one opinion matters at the end of the day ( the dev's ).
ps: just a speculation... how many of you think that the e a poe tattoo will have an impact on the vn? and to who ever posted the pic of the poem, nicely done.
