Dev Diary #10
Added 2024-12-02 17:00:21 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
It's the holiday season again! Personally I can't wait for it to start snowing in my area. Unfortunately the weather has been killing me for the last month. Back-to-back sickness with a terrible cold leading into a stomach flu... I can't even remember the last time I was sick, since it's so rare. I've been bedridden and toilet-ridden for the past 3+ weeks, but I'm making progress when I can with v0.19.
Most of the main character story events are done and just need some final adjustments. We're getting some big progress with how Autumn sees the world and her church, which is a big step towards more fun time in the bed ;)
Ashley and F&E's stories will be connected again, this one should be big and will involve trying to find Felicity and Ren. Maybe one of them even be found.
I don't want to spoil much, but Lin's story should also be super fun. This and Autumn's are building to be my personal favorites of v0.19 so far.
Pixel is also making a lot of progress in Cyberspace, which is setting up for something big.
But here's where I'm looking for your feedback... where should I focus secondary content? I've received some great suggestions for trait expansions, such as adding new Interactions to each character. Buttslut could unlock wearing a buttplug while standing in their room. Nymptho could unlock vibrators, Submissive could unlock room spankings, and Paizuri star could unlock nipple piercings. (Keep in mind all of these would only be shown in their room, and maybe with some future unlockable outfits.) But I could also put my focus towards Side Character stories, or more Explore content. What do you think? I'm always eager to hear your suggestions and feedback, so please share what you think v0.19 should include!
Oh, and how was the garden farm content? Did you guys try it out yet? With the additional of +Lust and +EXP crops, it should address issues of people feeling like these two things are too time consuming to build. So I'm very curious if the game feels better with these, along with a new source of income.
I'd also like to remind everyone that Custom Art is available again! There was a period of time where none could be made, but it's fully back now. $10+ Patrons have the ability to request Custom Art of any character, in any position or clothes (or nude). Multiple characters are available for higher tiers, and custom animations as well! You can check the gallery of Custom Art HERE or request your own HERE or at your rank's appropriate #info channel.
There's also some news about HH figurines. As you may know, Lin Figurines have been available for some time now. All the feedback I've received has been amazing, but this time I have a specific question. Would you be more or less interested in a fully nude figurine? Or maybe lingerie? Production of Kali figurines will begin soon, so I'm wondering what you guys will be most interested in.

2024-12-11 07:17:31 +0000 UTCI completely feel for you Runey with the sickness... Fall kills me with all the ragweed and mold. I always manage to get walking pneumonia.... I always get better once the snow falls.
Tythesly
2024-12-08 00:25:18 +0000 UTCI like Kali too, especially cause of the tsundere vibes she can give off ๐คฃ But Ashley with the borderline yandere vibes is just too alluring to me. Plus, with the vulnerable, passionate, caring and wholesome side she's been showing of late, it makes for the dream duality for me โค๏ธ I'd definitely go for both of them, but if I had to choose, Ashley without a doubt ๐ฅ
Rikenzu
2024-12-07 22:18:53 +0000 UTCI like Kali and all, but you just stoked my personal fire to make Ashley happen. She feels like the deepest character to me, with the most growth.... On a physical note though, when do we get more Moon? ๐
Makeshiftknight
2024-12-07 21:10:37 +0000 UTCGame is Brill. Apart from main characters, I think side Characters should get more Storylines such as Moon, Kate, Hana and maybe Nia and Slyvia.
Paul Baxter
2024-12-07 17:49:57 +0000 UTCI don't know if I want to wait or not ๐ I was semi-interested in Line, but Kali... ๐ I wanna see what she looks like first, but I might want her. Once Ashley's out though, take my money ๐คฃ
Rikenzu
2024-12-05 22:12:44 +0000 UTCI costs quite a bit of money to create the model for the 3D print, so if the Kali figurine sells well, I will move on to offering Ashley figurines
Runey
2024-12-05 16:27:26 +0000 UTCDefinitely more side character stories for me like Kate and Moon, but also others.
HenTie
2024-12-04 21:49:33 +0000 UTCBrother, game is legit, just me get some more of the friends, you know. A part from that, get better big dawgggg
reddtokes
2024-12-04 14:58:15 +0000 UTCFigures: I would absolutely like alternative poses, (nude or alternate costumes). I'm excited for the Kali and future casts. And it's awesome to look forward to another update. Feel better Runey. Wishing you and everyone all the best. I'll give that AI thing a try, ONLY because of Harem Hotel. (Tried the AI chat, it was hilarious. Some of those responses made me laugh so hard. Not sure if it was supposed to but the Chatbots weren't familiar with the game cannon.)

2024-12-04 02:12:40 +0000 UTCI'd like to see the ability to buy more stuff in the store. Maybe add a couple floors to sanctuary and the ability to take in more slaves with a little variety. Not full storylines but a little bit. Some options with get something to eat etc would be sweet. A lot of time is spent adding traits and increasing affection/obedience with limited options. Still a brilliant game with brilliant storylines. One problem with the slaves in back being illegal. Cira was the only one not purchased through the HHI so that should be fixed. I'd like to see it culminating in slavery eliminated with a victory over the powers that be...
Kurt Sumthinorother
2024-12-03 22:48:19 +0000 UTCWould love to do the AI chat but I couldn't see any regenerate/edit responses so not for me. As for content, the plugs/clamps/etc sounds pretty cool. Especially if there's perhaps a randomization setting. But I would certainly love more seeing more developed content for the side girls. Lucy, Hana and Moon come to mind for me.
Te1emachus
2024-12-03 08:50:51 +0000 UTCThank you for the update, and yeah I'd love to see some more side characters fleshed out and have a bit more content there. One thing I ended up really liking was exploring the city a bit and would be awesome to expand there. But with a game this huge I understand not everything will get done. But you're doing amazing work and I love supporting you.
Gehenna
2024-12-03 08:35:52 +0000 UTCGotta say, I'm not too hyped on the AI thing, personally. But I won't knock it for those that do like it I definitely want to see more Side Character Content, I'd love to learn more about Eris, Moon, Hana, Kate, hell I even wanna see Ramen Shop Guy get more appearances ๐ And stop neglecting Juliet ๐ญ I'm definitely interested in a Kali figure, tho I do hope others eventually get made. I would kill for an Ashley one. Maybe have the option to have the figures be both clothed AND nude? That'd definitely entice some people
Rikenzu
2024-12-03 02:56:51 +0000 UTCYou know that vending machine in the hotel lobby? You know the food you can order at the Pizza place or Coffee shop? You spend money there, but get nothing out of it. It would be nice if you could reward a character on a whim with a treat, maybe get some special scenes if you find their favorite food. Also I love the garden. It would be cool to have more character interactions back there.
Defp
2024-12-03 02:14:27 +0000 UTCThat's like saying exhibitionist and submissive content for the main girls shouldn't exist. There are a lot of similarities.
demonchild
2024-12-03 02:04:19 +0000 UTCI'd love to see more focus on the dungeon. It hasn't really played too much of a role since the early release, and it feels a little left behind compared to the later animations. It would be awesome to get more options for positions, invite the side characters down, and just see more dungeon fun time. Story is phenomenal so far.
C
2024-12-03 01:29:06 +0000 UTCI would personally prefer lingerie or alternative outfits over plain nudity for the figures! I think Kali in her bunny outfit would be super cute. As far as content goes, I am definitely way more invested in the side characters storylines over traits. Kate is one of my favorites. It was kinda cool seeing a female character with autism represented really well in an erotic game of all things?? She is really memorable for me.
Neko
2024-12-03 01:08:25 +0000 UTCSide character definitely, and love route, not slave. IMO slave route is a mistake, it should not exist at all, it doesn't fit right in the game theme.
Timo P
2024-12-03 00:37:25 +0000 UTCTrait unlocking plugs and vibrators is OK as long as you don't have to use those. I prefer the old way with outfits.
Timo P
2024-12-03 00:35:15 +0000 UTCrandom events in the hall ways, bar, spa and other locations. Random events keep the place feeling "alive".
JH
2024-12-03 00:12:48 +0000 UTCyes and the first gaianist priestess that we find exploring and that girl we encounter at the bowling and turns out to be a friends of the rich guy but not insufferable
Yuy
2024-12-02 21:54:35 +0000 UTCi would personally prefer to see more of their lover route instead
Yuy
2024-12-02 21:51:15 +0000 UTCI want to see more of the fairies, both sexually and the story, they seems to have been playing an important part of the history in this world and would love to see more of it and their connection to the gaianist church and everything also love the 3 fairies and want H-scenes
Yuy
2024-12-02 21:48:24 +0000 UTCThe new story lines for v0.19 sound fantastic although I admit to being nervous about Autumn ๐ตโ๐ซ. I have a few opinions about religion and the effect it has that should never be shared here ๐ฌ. Every side character has been interesting in some way, but do I want to see any from the Church of Gaius such as Elder Delilah? Not a chance, but I would like to see more of Eris, Kate, Juliet, Nia, Moon, Lucia, Jinny and Vanessa. NONE on the slave route. This is in order of appearance in the game and has nothing to do with my preference. I know this is a little too much to ask but could we get them all ๐. The Lovescape idea sound great but also like it could become addicting very fast ๐. Almost too fun ๐. Had to do a quick edit there.
Merlin
2024-12-02 20:06:59 +0000 UTCMore side content with Vanessa would be great. I'd love to see a follow up with her, Nala, Ami and Kim from the events of Lin's protest. Maybe a mission to help some of the background characters who attended like Burger elf or the human/elf couple? I don't know if it would fit but since there are four of them, maybe even a comedic Charlie's Angels motif. A gym/dojo hotel expansion option would fit in well as a multi-purpose new area. Training ground for Nia/Maria, new exercise area for Kate, Felicity, Emma and Ashley. Maybe a hidden armory? Also, I think it was mentioned by someone else on discord but Pixel having more social interaction training, similar to the Maria bar event, but with Kate would be a fantastic. Kate and Pixel seem to share that lack of intuitive understanding which would make Kate a great teacher.

2024-12-02 19:07:47 +0000 UTCCosmetics for characters is good. I'd kinda like the last room filled, or at the very least, change the message on the door to 'I still can't find a tenant for this room.' Sylvia and Nia are more than just side characters at this point, I think it's probably time to move them into better accommodations. I don't mind grinding stats, I like when games take more than 20 seconds to play. Besides, making it hard to obtain makes it more enjoyable when it does happen. If I wanted easy to unlock sex scenes I'd just watch porn.
Brian
2024-12-02 18:54:14 +0000 UTCPersonally, Iโd prefer more side character content. Hope you feel better soon.
AggieSlimer
2024-12-02 18:32:47 +0000 UTCI can definitely understand that, it'd look terrible if I attempted to paint one! Thanks for all you do, you're an amazing creator <3 I hope you're feeling better
JS
2024-12-02 18:29:09 +0000 UTCI would love to offer painted figurines, but we did a few tests and they didn't turn out great.
Runey
2024-12-02 18:23:20 +0000 UTCLove the idea of adding cosmetics to the characters in their rooms, especially the nipple piercings, or tail-style butt plugs for F&E In terms of figurines, I think pre-painted figurines would be nice even if the price was higher, since not everybody has the attention to detail in order to paint them well
JS
2024-12-02 18:19:14 +0000 UTCI'd like to see more side character content the most.
demonchild
2024-12-02 18:16:22 +0000 UTCThanks for the feedback :)
Runey
2024-12-02 18:00:10 +0000 UTCI'd love to see more Slyvia and Nia content especially but Moon too. And the additional requests after getting certain tiers of ferish traits sounds rad too.
Laplace Roland
2024-12-02 17:59:40 +0000 UTCThatโs partially what this post is asking. Would you prefer I focus on side character content or other content like traits? Theyโll certainly be getting more content at some point though.
Runey
2024-12-02 17:59:26 +0000 UTCAfter the 0.18 cliffhangers I'm really keen to see what 0.19 has in store for our main cast. Whilst I like a lot of the ideas for the trait reworks I think I'd prefer things focused on the side characters - I really enjoy them all being there and want to get more time with them. The Kate Date last patch was great and I enjoy more wholesome and varied content with them (let us build a gym and other facilities for them to hang out in). Like the promotion of custom art - I really enjoy seeing what everyone comes up with, even if some characters (Kali) are neglected by the community (he says with no plans to submit a Kali request for at least 3 months).
G
2024-12-02 17:54:22 +0000 UTCNo problem. It's good for me to have a prompt (and a place to offer it; Discord feels too chaotic [ha] most of the time). I'm mostly looking for more story content, yes. One that's coming to mind now is the girls in the backroom of the Sanctuary. You know a very little bit about them from how they got there, but otherwise they're basically just f*ck dolls. I'm not saying they each need a grandiose story, but getting to know them a little better would be nice. (And to be clear, I'm not demanding that immediately. Just a thought for future, I guess.) Aha, I'll try to keep that in mind moving forward. Maybe I can spare some time to think about it at work... ๐ LOL just goes to show you how long it's been since I've started fresh.... waitaminute. Wasn't that also the name of the futa android from the [original version of the] beach interaction scene with Android? I thought it sounded familiar somehow....
Sh0tgun_Jacks0n
2024-12-02 17:51:54 +0000 UTCWill we see any new content for Nia and Sylvia slave route? It feels like its been awhile. Also, I hope you feel better soon.
demonchild
2024-12-02 17:50:09 +0000 UTCI hope you feel better
Kerley
2024-12-02 17:34:39 +0000 UTCI like the trait idea!
TrynottobePatronizing
2024-12-02 17:33:44 +0000 UTCOh yes, Pixel is her default name now. It was changed I think in v0.16.
Runey
2024-12-02 17:33:31 +0000 UTCThanks for the tip
Runey
2024-12-02 17:33:03 +0000 UTCThank you for the feedback! What sort of side character content are you looking for? Is it just more story content for them? I'm also planning for each side character, and some other important background characters, to all be included in the hot springs if they aren't already, and to have at least one sex scene each from there. I highly recommend the custom art! I used to do it myself, but as the game has gotten more detailed, I haven't had the time to do that. So I've hired a Custom Artist to do that for me, and he gets paid for each art. So you'd get something nice and buy him a coffee too :)
Runey
2024-12-02 17:32:39 +0000 UTCSorry to hear about your health problems, but 'tis kinda that time of year. Both me and my dad have had pretty good luck with nasal saline rinses. Keeping your sinuses clean seems to go a long way towards general health. Edit (because I couldn't seem to add a new paragraph on my phone): I would love to see some side characters built out. I've been enjoying getting (re-) acquainted with Kate, and I would not mind some sort of repeatable scenes with her. I don't think she'd get that freaky. Hana, though, I think could be incredibly depraved (and I am HERE for it!), and it could help her become a hentai artist of note. It would be nice to help her develop self-confidence (and an incredibly dirty mind). Speaking of self-confidence, Juliette, I mean, who doesn't like a BTGG? Sometime I just want to give her a hug. Last, I would love to see more content with Ellen, because I love me a curvy blonde older lady.

2024-12-02 17:32:22 +0000 UTCI see....I was able to dl it on itch ion. I'm not sure if its the same but works nevertheless less..thanks
Christopher Adams
2024-12-02 17:29:20 +0000 UTCOh yeah, forgot to ask: Is "Pixel" any sort of official name for Android moving forward? I was a little confused at first because I'd never seen her referred to in an official capacity as anything aside from the latter until now.
Sh0tgun_Jacks0n
2024-12-02 17:28:56 +0000 UTCWow, that's... honestly a lot to take in. From my perspective, my preference would be to focus secondary content on fleshing out side characters more. Don't get me wrong, the ideas you listed are great, and I love spicy content as much as the next person.... But the reason why HH is one of my Top 3 titles is the character development and interactions. Regarding the garden content, I haven't gone full run on it because I haven't had time to start a fresh run lately, but I can see how it could be useful, and I like how it intersects with Jin's story. Gonna be honest, I've never actually requested any Custom Art. That's not to knock it, I just never have the memory or time to think anything up. It's more or less the same reason I leave a lot of the finer details up to artists when I commission them. I'm not in the market for figurines at the moment (not enough shelf space for what I DO have), but I never think it's a bad idea to branch out into merch. It's relieving to know that there won't be any AI in the game. I'm not against a chatbot in theory, but I'd personally prefer a limited "dumb" chatbot that's standalone. With all the negatives associated with them, I'm concerned about the shoehorning of AI into nearly everything lately; and I definitely have better things to do than use a pay to play chatbot. That just feels predatory to me; but then I remember ten, fifteen years ago, when there were super basic chatbots that you didn't have to pay to talk to. /shrug
Sh0tgun_Jacks0n
2024-12-02 17:27:43 +0000 UTCSuch as Eris? I have plans for her ;)
Runey
2024-12-02 17:26:49 +0000 UTCNo, the update is free. But you can also try the other link. Google Drive has a daily limit, but is very fast. Mediafire has no limits.
Runey
2024-12-02 17:25:20 +0000 UTCTo bad that the most recent update can't be downloaded due to too many downloads already....and I paid for this?
Christopher Adams
2024-12-02 17:20:03 +0000 UTCI like the early game characters you run into while exploring the city. Wish some of those girls had become main heroines.
Don
2024-12-02 17:12:25 +0000 UTCThank you for the feedback! I'm thinking Vanessa may pay her friend a visit in the BunBun Brothel soon
Runey
2024-12-02 17:12:06 +0000 UTCI really like the Explore content. I said this a few times on the Discord, the Bun Bun girls ended up just fun people and the weekly bowling tournaments were something I found myself really into. For side content, I'd love exploring that more.
