Your current hoster blocks the running download after a few minutes with "timed out", which is too less to download the 12 GB game for anything slower than gigabit ethernet.

To fix this:

  •  use a different hoster
  •  compress the images more;  renpy 8+ supports avif but you get already almost half of your current image sizes with cwebp default settings and omitting transparency.

Your current hoster blocks the running download

Is that an answer to some download problem?

HH can be downloaded from Itch.io or from the mirror site, one of them should work. My experience is both of them do work.

compress the images more;

HH is now 12 GB compressed. The developer has stated the uncompressed game is over 100 GB.

Nothing wrong with further compression, Taleman. If anything, I'd think that could only be considered a good thing.

My understanding is images and animations are now compressed as much as they can be compressed. Further compression would make image quality noticeably worse.

I do not know what compression method or methods are used now, original poster proposes using compressors like AVIF and WebP, but maybe those are already in use?

To solve this properly would require testing available image compressors and measuring which makes smallest file size without making image quality worse. This would need testing on the HH images, they are not typical photographs.

Yes, manga style is actually simpler, he could even reduce color palette. And using avif (which renpy supports and it ignores file extension if not hardcoded in the scripts), somewhere around 50% file size could be achieved vs. jpg and about 2/3 vs. webp.

Btw, i got Lessions in Love from 12 GB to 4.3 GB without visual loss, but that one uses a lot of PNG.

> The developer has stated the uncompressed game is over 100 GB.

Uncompressed pictures/video are huge, this says nothing. That's why we have formats that compress them.

And yeah, i can't download the game, it always stops after a few minutes with connection timed out. And 12 GB is huge for a VN. Says it needs about 40 minutes to download on my current line (the one downside of this place).

One issue might be that HH does "animations" often manually, via a series of pictures, while a video format would compress a series of similiar images to a little more file size than one image.

The wiki has some cheat codes.

I would say it is not proper to share the codes, they are meant only for the supporters in Patreon.

Please add Turkish language to the game

(1 edit) (+1)

Developer does the English language. Other languages are done by voluntary workers.

If you want Turkish, you can join the translators on Discord. It would be good to have at least two members in the language team, for proofreading and quality control.

I have the Vo17 how i can add the Vo18?  Do i really have to download all the Game again?

(1 edit)

I have the Vo17 how i can add the Vo18?

Upgrade your game from version 0.17 to 0.18.x.

Do i really have to download all the Game again?

No.

There is patch for PC version 0.17 that upgrades it to 0.18. It is available at the Downloads section like the other downloads.

You do not mention what platform you are using, so I can not advice on how the patching might work. The patch download is a zip file, inside it is Readme-file that tells how to do the patching.

Can the game possibly get a multi part download? 12gb is a lot.

The zip file could be split to 1 GB files, download each separately and then join them back to one large zip file. This might be too complicated for typical users.

I would rather spend time figuring out what is wrong with the downloads, I have not seen problems. The file does take time to download, but eventually it has arrived and no errors.

Seems download problems are somewhat common, so it might make sense to make it better. But I think I have not seen any user helped with download problems reporting back so it would be known what the problem was and how it was resolved. Or if the download just does not work no matter what.

Can anybody help? 

I'm stuck, I can't progress anyone's story before raising androids level but in the last 40 days I've never had a way to. I've followed her around but nothing. 

Currently I have the option to progress with Autumn but it prompts me to raise Lin's level but when I try that I get a prompt saying I should raise android's level.

Game version 0.18

Android level 39

I believe in version 0.18 highest level for Android is 39.

So you would have to wait until next version is released.

Have you upgraded hotel and garden?

Have you bought elves, Jin might be needed to progress with Lin’s story.

It would be very weird for max level to be 39 since it seems there is more content with other characters that I can't access unless I raise her level plus I didn't get the message you get when max a characters story for that version.

I have bought all the slaves and Lin's story just like Autumn's prompts about Android's level.

What about the garden, do you have the garden where you can plant crops and go sell the harvest?

What is the code for the game?

It's built with Ren'py, if you want to build your own.

I'm talking about the password of the computer in the game.

Is there a password for the computer? I do not remember such thing in this game.

There are codes that can be entered on the computer, you can get then if you are a paying member in Patreon. Some cheat codes are mentioned in the Wiki.

Sau khi cài đặt tôi có nên xoá phần file zip trước đó không?

(+1)

You can keep the .zip file or remove it, it does not matter for the game. You do not need it after you have installed the game, unless you want to install again.

How do I increase the relationship level?

(2 edits) (+1)

Relationship level increases as the story progresses.

There is an event when the requirements are met, and the event increases relationship level. Examine the Misc Info screen, those girls with exclamation mark have an event available. Talk to the girl at her door or try to find where she is and meet her there. Some events happen at a specific time of day. Some events trigger without you doing anything. I think a girl can not have two events in the same day, and some events cause a multi day wait before next event for that girl can happen.

The game tries to explain these things. You can read the Wiki to find out more, or just experiment.

(-1)

Damn, I downloaded it from the FAP website but I don't see the Chinese option.

(+2)

Don’t download from third party sites. That applies to any software, those third party sites may be pirate sites or have added malware into the download.

Download here, from itch.io. Download section above.

How can I solve this? I have tried everything, all other characters are maxed out, nia_alert00 is turned off, and following the wiki instructions doesn't work.

You do not say what version of Harem Hotel you are playing.

In version 0.17.x there is a bug that sometimes prevents Maria from getting past level 30. That bug is fixed in 0.18.x version.

Then it should work. I did not see this problem.

Altering nia_alert00 should not be needed in version 0.18.x, maybe manipulating its value breaks things?

I don't know, but I didn't change the data until I finished all the characters

I can not help more.

Perhaps the old bug was not completely fixed if it can still appear.

Can you provide debugging info, or stuff that might help the developer examine the situation?

You could tell for example is this a fresh install of 0.18.s, or 0.17 upgraded to 0.18.

Can you separate android from PC?12g is too big.Disconnects in the middle of every download.

(1 edit) (+2)

The size of game is 12 Gbytes.

To play on Android, see the instructions above on this page, under the heading “How to play on Android”.

Make sure you have more than 12 GB free on the device. The free space must be in the device/partition/directory you are downloading to.

The game can be downloaded from the main site and the external mirror site. Have you tried both?

I admit if it were in multiple parts for android, it would be nice. But you would need to remember your game stats for each girl.

Multiple parts, at best, means multiple zips that you will have to download, one by one in their entirety, to play the game once you are finished. PAR files, essentially, for those who are old enough to remember those, or Rxx files if you ever used RAR. 

Separating the game into multiple single-character stories is simply unfeasible, partly because character stories are intertwined, which means you *will* need additional characters to continue a given character's storyline, but mostly because  of the sheer amount of work it would entail.

Oh, I didn't mean separating every character, I meant like, every character goes through 15 levels per every game part. Part 1 is 1-15, part 2 is 16-30, part 3 is 31-45 and part 4 is 46-60.

Is it my problem? At first it was normal Chinese, and then it was English-

Language can be changed in the Options-menu. Choose Chinese there.

when to update?

(+1)

when to update?

You can update when the new version is released. It can take time, though.

The next version is released when it is ready. There is a beta test version of 0.19 available now, in Patreon for paying supporters.

(1 edit)

to my game, it doesn't let me continue Jin. i'm speedrunning days trying to "pass enough time for the addiction". i'm past the 20 in game days after the hospital return and still nothing. I even did a new save from scratch, and still nothing

hmm, didnt happen to me and i've just played it. maybe locked behind another scene? Lin probably

nope, did progress all questlines to the end for now, Jin is the only one with the yellow marker in the info

(1 edit)

hmm, i take it you've gone everywhere at every time of day? I know Jin's route ends in the garden. Also try going into Lin's room and talking to Jin directly every day. Have you finished Lins route?

I did finish all routes, except Jin's. In the wiki is stated that for the next step "enough time should gave passed for the addiction to wear off" and that i should enter Lin's room. Been skipping some days and everyone of them i do enter Lin's to talk to Jin, but nothing happens.

(+1)

i figured out, i'm dumb as a rock

I will say the talk of more options for side characters made me pick my jaw up off the floor.

(+2)

All I can say is WOW. Great writing, great variety of kink, great models and scenes. Great interactions between characters, drama, humour - this one got it all. The storytelling though - IS SOMETHING ELSE. I was bawling through ashley & pixel's memories - I connected so hard with thier characters. So well put together, engaging and addictive. TOP 5 AVN

(+1)

Addendum: I hadnt finished when i wrote that quick-review. Now that im up-to-date I can't give enough praise. Maria's story was soul crushing and Lin's was incredible. I can't wait to see what comes next.

Can you put the download for android and pc into seperate occasions so we don't have to download them both in one file/folder

The Android version is the same as the PC version.

You do not need to download it twice, it is just one download. You should read the instructions above on this page, under How to play on Android:.

Runey, a minor suggestion toward the game page here: around where you say that pregnancy is a planned theme, it might help, at least to some small amount, if you add a note or something saying that that content won't be added until around the end of the game.

Might stop a handful of people from asking when it'll be added, as they'll be able to just spot the information above.

(1 edit)

they’ll be able to just spot the information above.

That may not help much. See the number of questions on this forum on how to play on Android, and that info is quite prominently exposed on this page.

I addressed that very thing in my comment. The key being that it might prevent a handful of people from needing to ask. In no way am I expecting it to prevent asking entirely, as some people just refuse to look for information.

This web page is already very long. The itch system maybe does not allow page of contents or other ways to organize it, and there may be many issues to add.

Another way might be adding Frequently Asked Questions to the Wiki. If the wiki does get FAQ, it should be divided in non-spoiler and may contain spoilers sections.

Discord has FAQ channel, but it seems to contain only installation and update information.

That's a fine recommendation as well, I think. Adding it to the wiki's FAQ could help a lot, but it'd also help, in some small way, to put it here on the main page.

For one, I'm sure not everyone is even aware of the wiki, and if they are there's no telling whether they've been there before. I've been following the game for years and I've not once visited the wiki. Secondly, with it being on the main page, likely directly by the 'planned theme' it'd be right near where people would see that pregnancy is a planned theme; as I'm sure there are a number of people that read through the page, see that, and then ask about when it'll be added (or if it's already been added).

Just to reiterate, I do think it'd be a grand idea to add a comment about it in the FAQ on the wiki, but also to the direct game page here - where people will be able to find it a touch more directly. Even if it won't prevent many people, it just needs to help some.

I failed halfway through the download on my Android device, and I tried it several times. 

 

What happens when you try to download? Surely there is some error or info message.

Is there space for the 12 GB download on the device?

(1 edit)

Started playing this game about 3 to 4  years ago just wanted  to play it for sexual whatever. Then I got real into the writing once the  android started going  somewhere. Thanks for  the good  times runey. I appreciate you taking time to actually put effort in your creation although  its a little stunted do to the nature of a porn game.  No hate I  mean you just have  to write around  the sex which is fun in itself and sometimes adds to the writing.

(+2)

There really is a pervasive misunderstanding about the game and its classification. It really isn't a porn game, by nature, it's an adult visual novel with a high amount of sexual elements. If anything, it's a bit of a minor difference... but still a difference.

I couldn't downloaded because it said I didn't have permission. Why did that happened?

(-1)

Because you didn't not have permission to not do that.

To get useful answers you need to provide more information.

What are you downloading and from where?

What platform, Linux, Android, Mac, Windows?

What exactly is the message when download fails? Copy and paste it or show screenshot.

I was trying the most recent PC version of this game and about halfway through it stopped and the message that showed up in the Download list was 4426675-archive-default.xml and beneath it, it says couldn't download - no permission

(1 edit)

Are you sure there is free space on the device for the download? It is 12 GBytes.

That message seems like coming from your PC, not a problem with the file server you download from. So examine your PC and the directory where the download goes.

You still have not revealed where you are downloading from. The Itch.io site or the mirror?

(1 edit)

I have plenty of space on my Android device, but it stops in the middle of a download and I need to start over

It shows waiting for a data connection

this game dont have chinese

有中文,在主菜单——选项——语言里选

(+1)(-1)

Hii I cant download it somehow after 12 gigs the download stops and it says Http Error 403 anyone has a solution?

Are you downloading from the Itch.io links on this page?

Which link?

The download should work. Make sure there is free space on disk.

Try downloading again, I think download should continue where it was stopped.

If you need more help, provide more information to help debug the problem.

How do I play the game on Android?

Read on this page the instructions about “How to play on Android”.

Runey, are we going to see Autumn go through with the idea of anal?

(+2)

Of course

(+1)

I really like seeing Autumn doing everything but vaginal sex. I also would love seeing her with a laptop looking at porn and someone walks in her room while she is browsing, slams the laptop shut, and she shouts "Nothing! Just...looking for...potato chips on...Amazon. That's right, Amazon."

(+5)

I created an account just to say that never have I ever thought that a hentai game would make me this emotional.

(+1)

I'm glad you like it :)

(+2)

Harem Hotel takes a lot of people by surprise in a great way. For me I saw screenshots and was like I'll give it a try, then saw a tag for the game "slave" and thought "that's odd, I am sure they mean BDSM" and just downloaded and played it. First few minutes I am beside myself, "it wasn't a typo". Thought about stopping but am so glad I didn't. This game makes you feel the emotions and struggles the girls have. Runey is a master storyteller.

(+1)

When will the pregnancy feature be included?

Developer has previously stated at the very end of the game. It may be several years before the game is completed and that feature is added to the story.

You can search old discussions about this very same topic.

(4 edits) (+2)

Exactly, and while I would love to see pregnancy content asap, this game is one of my favorites and I am far from wanting to see it be finished. We are reaching 0.19, well I say we use the rest of the 81 numbers (0.19 -1.00), as well, before we get a stable 1.00 I mean Autumn is just being told about anal. There is a long way to go.

(1 edit) (+1)

I never thought I would be this invested in the story of an elf or an android lol. I look forward to seeing where it all leads for them and I swear, IF YOU HURT ON HAIR ON THEIR HEAD!!!

haha, it's great work. I'll have to start a fresh save on the update now that I have the hang of how the progression mechanics work. Can't wait to be in a place where I can donate, I can see that this has been a long project and a lot of soul has been put into the storytelling and universe. 

(1 edit)

Thank you so much :)

Hi Runey, loving the game so far and I especially love how responsive you are with your community and how you take feedback and bug reports to heart. :)

I have a question, I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but when you're at the winter cabin with Felicity, Emma, and Ashley, when you're all naked in the hot springs talking, Felicity and Emma mention a time that they were having a massage with Maria. They talk about how it was dark and they were naked and one of them (either Felicity or Emma that is) accidentally slipped a finger inside Maria. Only, this scene didn't happen for me. Is this a scene in the game and I missed it, or is it a bug that they're saying this when it hasn't happened yet, or is it something that happened behind the scenes to the characters and the player just doesn't get to see?

I should add I'm playing version 0.18.2, I haven't updated the game in awhile so I don't know if you've already addressed this in a more recent release if there has been one

(1 edit) (+1)

Only, this scene didn’t happen for me. Is this a scene in the game and I missed it,

They talk about things that happened in the past. That time was before the story in the game starts.

in a more recent release if there has been one

There has not been one yet. The 0.19 version is only beta, although it is available on Patreon for supporters.

(+1)

They're talking about a time before you met them.

Ah okay, that wasn't clear to me. Thanks!

i see theres other languages in the options, but only english, spanish and chinese are available. is there a way to get the other ones?

(1 edit)

Help the translators to complete the translations to those languages, then they will be available in the next version.

Greyed out items mean they are unavailable.

(+4)

How is this free!? Hotel Harem is already one of the best AVNs ever. My heartstrings successfully pulled lol I only just discovered this recently so thank you Runey.

(+3)

Thank you so much! <3 I'm only able to offer it for free through the support of tips :)

question just lost all my saves after updating how can i fix

(+2)

How did you do the update?

From which version to which version?

What platform, Windows, Android, Linux, Mac?

How have you determined you have lost the save files?

Just have a cheat code that puts players to the newest update so that they don't have to do the story over again

that puts players to the newest update

That would lose the names given to the hotel, android and what girls call the MC.

The girls have accumulated stats, what would happen to those?

(1 edit) (+1)

About that idea for codes, there might be codes that already exist. All you need to do is purchase a Patreon membership with Runey at Runey | Creating Harem Hotel | Patreon and to get access to these codes you just need to spend the very low price of $5 every month

These codes do exist.

I downloaded the game on my Mac but it wont seem to open, I made sure to download the Mac version but it just won't open

Did the download complete without errors?

I have used a Mac computer, but that was a log time ago. So I do not know what might be the problem now.

You could try Internet Search engines, with

install harem hotel on Mac

or

install harem hotel on Mac site:youtube.com

Strange, I don't have a mac myself. But if I had to guess, maybe your anti virus falsely flagged the file.

 This game is a zip file, so it doesn't work on Android. What should I do? 

Read instructions above, under the heading “How to play on Android”.

Zippidy-do, here is a screenshot for you.

Hello Runey, I'm a huge fan of this project, you are doing an amazing job and I love these girls so much. So I wanted to respectfully request your permission/blessing to have a custom companion doll of Lin made?

Go for it! I've been trying to offer plushies myself, but I can't find any good places to manufacture them upon order.

(1 edit)

Hooray, thank you so much! Having a custom doll made is expensive so I have to save up for it, but, would you be willing to send me any updated face images for the artist?

(2 edits)

Having chibi plushies of the girls would be very cute. If they looked like your stickers then that would be sweet.

(+1)

Love the game, just wanted to let you know that if you go long enough without continuing the main story you start getting the "i should really consider buying sylvia prompt" even when you havent done the elf orgy thing with the drow and such

(+1)

Perhaps it's a bit impolite, but I really want to ask when is the expected update date for 0.19? I can't wait to play this excellent game anymore

(1 edit)

New version is published when it is ready. This has been the policy since the beginning.

Follow the development on Patreon, the beta is already released to supporters.

You can also read old discussions on this channel, release date is discussed weekly if not daily.
