HTopia

Build 03.21.23 (v0.1.9) release notes

Hi everyone,

Today I bring you a new release of HTopia featuring something I should had probably included in my engine since day 1: Multiple character support during dialogues! But hey, better late than never!

Among other things, we also have a new beautiful dungeon Crypt tileset available in the Sewers, which has replaced the previous ugly tileset it had.

A new amazing music theme for dates!

The Spa is now an actual location you can enter instead of triggering it dire...

February build update

Hello dear Patrons,

I've been preparing all of the assets for a new character coming in the next release, character sprites, facial expressions, clothing, etc.

I am talking about Elaine Bang, our sweet nun and head of St. Bang Hospital and the reason why the next build is taking longer than expected heh.

Here's a sneak peek of her in the next event:

Build 12.21.22 (v0.1.7) release notes

Hello dear Patrons!

Today I bring you the last build of the year!

This release has a new event for Neruko's story where you will encounter Himari for the first time, so I hope you're looking forward to it ;)

There's also a new original background for the Uptown Road location where the gym and police station are.

Also I have introduced a new item "Rare Catnip" you will receive initially so you can speed up on starting Neruko's story.

Finally another big highlight ...

Christmas event enabled

Hey everyone!

Quick update just letting you all know I've enabled the previous Christmas event in the game.

Most of the girls should now ocassionally wear their Christmas outfit and snowy weather can happen as well.

Enjoy!

PD: I'm getting the last things done for the next release, so keep an eye for it.

Heyy dear patrons!

Also whoever celebrated Thanksgiving, I hope you also had a great time with your family or friends.

Today I bring you some sneak peeks for what's coming to HTopia on the next month:

First of all, as you can see in this post's main image, there's one of Neruko's story CGs pretty much done, and the rest of them are coming a...

Build 11.12.22 release notes

Hi everyone,

Finally a new build is out today! With big changes around the engine's character system, a new autosave feature, new CGs and some bug fixes and UI improvements.

Also, today I've migrated the game out of Heroku, it will now be hosted in Render.com

If you're a Patron you can find the new URL in the pinned post.

The Heroku URL will continue to work until the 28th of this month, after that it will be gone forever.

Here's the full release items...

Happy Halloween!

I wish you all a Happy Halloween!

I hope you got to enjoy the Halloween event in-game if you had never tried it before, or if you were coming back to replay it!

I'll keep the event active for one more week just in case.

Sorry if I haven't pushed a new release, I haven't been feeling well myself and my artists have been a little late, but slowly I'm getting all the art needed for Neruko's next event, so a new release will be coming soon.

Happy trick or treating!

Halloween event is back!

Hi everyone!

Since it's that time of the year, I've just released a quick new build enabling the Halloween event back for those who have not played it yet! Or in case you wanted to play it again just for fun ;)

I hope you enjoy this small event and look forward for the next release!

I will be posting soon some sneak peeks of what's coming.

Cheers!

Build 09.20.22 release notes

Hi everyone,

Finally I bring you another release today.

This build may look small but there was a lot of polishing and fixes underneath.

Some of the highlights are about 15+ new facial expressions added to the randomly generated characters, a brand new BG for the Lake location and this amazing CG for the game's intro while you ride the cab.

One last thing in this build was a great amount of dialogue for the randomly generated characters was updated, polished, improved ...

Next build status + sneak peek

Hello everyone!

This is kind of a short post just to update you on the progress for the next build.

As you already know I continue working on Neruko's story, however, the artist in charge of the CGs is currently sick with Covid, so he may not be able to get the CGs done for Neruko's event #2 and #3 as planned.

In the meantime, attached is a sneak peek for one of the CGs for event #3

Also, as always, a location BG is being updated with an original BG, this time's turn i...

Build 08.16.22 release notes

Hello dear patrons,

I bring you a small but juicy build today featuring Neruko's first story event with all CGs done, and let me tell you, they. Are. Hot!

Also Neruko's second story event has been added. In this one Ina Watanabe will make her first appearance, so a new character has joined the fray!

Neruko sneak peek + outfit preview

Hello dear Patrons,

I wanted to give you a sneak peek of the CGs being worked on right now for Neruko's story initial event once you return her human form. This is where her story starts.

Please look forward to all the CGs for this initial event finished in the next release.

Next, as of now, the previous poll I posted has gotten 4 votes for Yes, and 0 votes for No, so I will assume the remaining votes are Yes ;)

With no further ado, here's Neruko's upcoming ...

Would you like a preview of Neruko's new outfit?

This is my first poll, let's see how it goes.

You know I've been working on Neruko's story and already have Neruko's new combat outfit design which she will get later in her story.

However, since story development may take a bit long to get to that point, I thought you all would like to see it beforehand.

So, should I share Neruko's new outfit or not?

Depending how this goes I'll post her new outfit later on ;)

Build 07.11.22 release notes

Hey everyone, a new build is out today!

This is a small release due to the fact this week I will be on a business trip from my job and won't be able to work on the game at all.

So I'm releasing whatever I have so far for your enjoyment while I'm gone this week.

One of the biggest highlights of this release is a new stat called "Hygiene".

As the name implies, now your hygiene will be judged in the game and will affect how the girls interact with you. Of course you can k...

Build 06.22.22 release notes

We're back on track after my hiatus with a brand new Patrons build.

I consider this a big release due to the fact there was a lot of content commissioned during my hiatus last month. So it took me quite a while to bring all this new content into the game in order to have a release.

The highlights for this release is the randomly generated characters which now have a unique dialogue set for the Shy personality. You will also find some nice new outfits for the randomly generated cha...

Characters Reveal - Part 3!

Hello dear Patrons,

Sorry for the long silence, in case you didn't see my message on Discord, I've been on hiatus during May visiting my family in my country of origin after several years of not seeing them.

This doesn't mean the art commissions have stopped. There's a lot of content that I have commissioned and it's ready for next month.

In the meantime I wanted to reveal two new characters that will play a big role in Neruko's story.

First one is Shion Miura, a legen...

Build 03.25.22 release notes

Hello dear Patrons,

Today I bring you one more build before the end of the month. This release is a small but very powerful one.

Featuring a completely redesigned HUD look; credit goes to my lovely wife who took the challenge of redesigning all the elements and icons and I think it improves the look of the game like 200%!

This HUD redesign sets the base for the rest of the UIs which we will be slowly redesigning one by one so keep an eye for more UI upgrades in the coming mo...

Build 03.11.22 release notes

Hi everyone,

Another build has been released. This build is mostly content related, and special to our well known Arane and Akira.

The last endings (#3) have been added for both Arane and Akira's stories.

Each of them now have a secret ending with super hot CGs for you to enjoy, however I won't spoil you how to get both those endings ;)

And one last thing, Arane's secret ending is actually fully voiced so I hope you enjoy EndymionVA's amazing performance.

New guest OC coming to HTopia!

Hi dear Patrons,

I have one more announcement before the year ends. As you can see in this post's image, the next guest original character coming to HTopia will be Endymion!

For the ones that don't know her, she's the OC (original character) of EndymionVA, the voice actress that plays Arane and Akira's voices. She was lovely enough to allow me to bring her OC into HTopia's universe.

This character will be...

Akira's Facial Expressions

This is a quick post just to give you guys a quick peek at some of the finished facial expressions for Akira.

Right now I'm finishing adjusting all of Akira's date/events with the corresponding facial expressions for each line.

Hello dear Patrons,

Today I wanted to give you a small early Christmas present by showing you the main characters for the next story coming to HTopia.

You may already know Neruko in her cat form. After the intro she asks for your help to recover her human form, which I've been kinda keeping a secret for a while.

Well, I think it's time to show you guys Neruko's human form!

But wait, why is there another Neruko next to her? Well that's Himari, her twin sister!
