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

[russelld]

Phenomenal game! In the sea of games on this forum that look like they were made by a child, with nonsensical stories and graphics so abysmal they're unbearable to look at, this game is not just a breath of fresh air but a true masterpiece!

First and foremost – the story! I'm thrilled with the story! Above all, I love that the game offers multiple scenarios (cheating, cuckold, netorare), allowing the player to choose the path that suits them best and feels most appealing. Furthermore, unlike the vast majority of games on the forum, the story avoids all those unnecessary and ridiculous situations that would seem absolutely unrealistic and impossible in real life (no exaggeration). Additionally, each possible scenario feels quite realistic and plausible in the given context, without unnecessary over-the-top elements.

Second – the characters! Just like with the story, I'm absolutely thrilled with the characters. Emma, above all. A beautiful and attractive young woman, portrayed exactly as she should be – with all her needs, temptations, and the inner struggle she goes through (especially in the cheating path). Most importantly, she’s not depicted as some wild nymphomaniac or a cheap street corner whore.
The characters of Martin and Patrick are also very well done. Martin, as an older and experienced guy, a womanizer (at least according to Patrick’s father), a predator who plays his game very carefully and cautiously, drawing Emma deeper into his web with every step (referring to the cheating route). Patrick, in any of the scenarios, also comes across as excellent and, more importantly, realistic.

And finally – the graphics! I’m speechless! Literally! In a sea of games that look so bad, dreadful, and exhausting to look at, where everything seems like it was made on a computer from 30 years ago, the graphics here look insanely good! And above all, I’m referring to how Emma and Martin are portrayed. Emma's face, her body, her curves, her breasts, nipples, and the lingerie and clothes she wears; Martin's face and body as well—everything looks flawless!

All in all, huge praise to the creator! Even though I haven’t played his other games, I definitely will. I also recommend that his fellow developers take a look at this game to see what a perfectly designed game should look like!

P.S. I hope the creator will decide to make at least a slightly longer version of this or a similar story in the future, with the same or different characters. I would really love to see that, and I’d pay whatever it costs!

Very well written my friend. Couldn't have stated it better myself.

How do we get to these scenes in the cheating path? Did he release a fix because I don't get any of Emma's POV from the time Patrick gets called to work on their anniversary.

There is a manual fix from one of the fans in the last few pages, the dev’s rushing caused a lot of issues in the code where the cheating paths were not playing out as intended. The aforementioned scene of Emma’s PoV of the anniversary date is one of them.

Can you share the fix with us?

Can you share the fix with us?

The fix is for when it skips Emma's POV of after the text message come in, and goes straight to the epilogue instead. At the moment, the only script fix I've seen for it is for new players, pretty much, since the error comes up in a previous update. Some of us playing just the Ep7 update have seen these other scenes by forcing them using URM. From what some have said though, there might be a bugfix coming from the dev which will hopefully sort these things out.

Can you share the fix with us?

Honestly, I think it was never shared in the form a fixed script file, at least not any that I can find.

It's best to wait for the public release from dimajio himself, maybe that one will include all the script fixes. Should be in a few days. None of us are willing to jump in and fix it beforehand, as the developer uses criminally insane variable names.

I think asahibito did.
