    The Road Trip [v0.10]

    Alright, here’s my short brainrot take. If u’re a pathetic cuck-story lover and u got the brains to read more than one line a day, go for it dude. Story is good!
    That cheating Asian chick is hot, horny, and hops on big cocks left and right on ur road trip to mommy. Be careful what u wish for… or urs ain’t getting wet anymore.
    And ngl, the dev is kinda a genius, man didn’t forget to give u that boring "love route" so ur gf stays clean and free from big fat dicks filling her up.
    And now, fucker, give me a thumbs-up, grab ur daily fap material, and let the adults talk a bit more serious.


    Dev, feel free to stick around, the real feedback starts here:

    I was never really into cheating, cucking, NTS or NTR. That changed when I came across a femdom VN that used NTR as emotional torture and humiliation. Those scenes hit me completely off guard and felt like they tore a piece out of my soul. It shocked me, because it doesn’t fit who I am. Or maybe there is a hidden masochistic or sadistic part of me that reacts strongly to the emotional cruelty behind infidelity.

    The Road Trip works surprisingly well in that sense. The storytelling is strong and grabbed me immediately. I liked that the story doesn’t just focus on cheating and cucking but also highlights the journey itself - and the turbulent character development of Riley and Jane, which eventually culminates in their respective NTR scenes. Anyone complaining about "too much text" should probably switch over to Pornhub, because this VN is very much story-first and gives a deeper look into the complexities of Riley’s sexual desires.

    You can play different paths: love, full NTR, or anything in between. After each chapter you get a status update that shows where your MC currently stands. Once Jane goes fully off track, you cannot bring her back, which is exactly how it should be in a VN centered around NTR.

    Below are the things that didn’t work as well for me.

    Corruption pacing
    The corruption pacing is too fast. Chapter 9 feels like the big finale (it is not), while in Chapter 2 you can already go full NTR. A slower descent into cheating would make the emotional impact much stronger. If the dev had pushed the player into uncomfortable choices that slowly lead Jane toward infidelity, the sense of dread and loss of control would be far more intense. Riley realizing that his kink is poisoning the relationship, creating distance and eventually costing him his girlfriend, would hit much harder with proper buildup.

    Unused stat system
    Chapter 1 introduces three stats – affection, lust and respect - but in all later chapters they are never used again. A pity! Based on the stats the dev could have shaped Jane's corruption, changed event outcomes, and dialogue flavor throughout the story.

    Relationship states
    After each chapter your relationship is labeled with one word, such as love, cheat, oblivious or NTR. Up until Chapter 4 these were more nuanced, but later they’re condensed again into only four different states. Another wasted opportunity. Earlier states like NTS or mean NTR simply vanished, even though they each carry a very different tone. The story could even go a step further and introduce cruel NTR for more extreme routes. All of this would add depth through altered dialogue and scene variations.
    On the opposite end of the spectrum, states like loyal or wavering would give the softer paths more weight and make the player more cautious about the direction their relationship is heading.

    Reruns feel too similar
    Most chapters play out the same across different paths. Textual variations are rare, and only very few scenes differ significantly. I would have preferred more flavor changes or route-specific events spread through the story.

    Strange side sequences
    The ghost town in Chapter 5 and the workshop in Chapter 8 feel disconnected from the main story and break immersion.

    Flashback
    The big flashback sequence shown in Chapter 10 would work better if split into earlier chapters. As it is now, it disrupts pacing and becomes a skip-heavy chapter for other routes.

    Real Porn Clips and Visual Choices
    The actress chosen to represent Jane works well. She has a natural body and the sex scenes stay visually consistent. The downside is that the story becomes tied to whatever porn material exists, which limits diversity to scenes and to the available actors, usually only white and black performers.

    Another drawback is the typical issue with real porn: a lot of eroticism gets lost because you can see the actresses faking pleasure or pushing through discomfort. For me this is a major turn-off. With 3D rendering the dev could push the entire VN to a much higher level.

    The remaining images are AI-generated. This is fine, but there should be more variety instead of reusing some pictures across several chapters.

    Music is missing. Good background music always adds atmosphere, even if some players turn it off instantly.

    ⭐ Final Rating: 4 out of 5

    This VN has clear potential to reach 5 stars if the dev improves the pacing, diversifies the routes, brings the stat system back into meaningful use, and cuts the pointless side plots. I personally hope the story leans even more toward uncompromising NTR and goes into some NTR-Femdom. I read somewhere that harsher scenes are emotionally difficult for the dev, so hopefully that doesn’t hold him back too much.

    Loving the writing quality and branching paths.
    Little bits of nuance in how the love interest speaks and refers back to choices you've made goes a long way.
    Obviously limits have to be placed on major path branching options or the combinations quickly grow out of control, but more of those little touches based on individual flags here and there can really help with the experience feeling unique within a path.
    The use of consistent models in the porn scenes for female characters also helps a lot with immersion.

    Really enjoying the game so far. There are several interesting routes based on player choice. The pace of corruption is definitely too quick but the game is well made with well written dialogue. Keep it up!

    Man, you spend ages just starin' at pictures of rocks and hills. Feels like they just threw that stuff in to make the whole thing seem longer than it really is. And everything happens way too fast, ya know? There's no real lead-up to the main events, feels kinda slapped together and rushed out the door. Plus, you gotta make these big decisions sometimes, but ain't no tellin' what'll happen, so you might just skip over some key parts without even knowin' it. Didn't really dig the main gal's look either, felt a bit off, reckon they coulda picked someone different. Honestly, just wasn't feelin' this one much at all.

    I was big fan of his latest work ''Locked Down'' but i didnt liked this one.. If we compare to Locked Down, Pacing is much worser than locked down. no build up no tease . She MAY get f'd in just chapter 2 !! thats so bad ! It's a personal opinion, but I don't find Jane's model hot. A better model choice could have been made. Another issue is the routes in the game. In the previous game, there were no choices, so you didn't miss any content, but in this one, some choices are very critical, which means you might miss out on content. A marker indicating the outcomes of choices could have been provided . Half of the game is spent looking at images mountains, rocks, and dirt etc. and yes, it's very boring. I think they were added just to extend the game time.
    Overall, It could've been much better game.. If things were not rushed..
    I could prefer similar to previous game instead of this one..

    Good start for the game. Good pace, images, videos, and storyline concept. Good choice of model for the girlfriend. There is a decent balance between text and images though I wouldn't mind more images to help the story along between the blobs of text :)

    Promising start, looking back at the author previous game, gameplay looks more engaging and the choices the player takes really seems as if will have an impact later into the story.

    Dialogue between the MC and the girlfriend is believable and helps the inmersion and overall feel of the game.
