Are there any plans to add an option to play as a female character in the future?

(+1)

Unfortunately it is almost impossible to add any sort of customization to the player's character.

Please tell me, will there be a translation into Russian?

There are currently not many people working on the Russian translation.

the fact that it works is already nice)

i have played the hotel before, and ill  have my big bro take off tonight to recall the moment i ejaculated 2 years ago

I understand that there is a Turkish version of the game in 2021, but it is very old compared to its current version and I cannot translate it because I do not know English. Thank you, it is a great game.

Hello Dev I’m glad to see you are still actively making your story. It’s one of the oldest games I have I originally got it from f95 in 2019 I got to say you have come along way from then. Chuckles just think of all the players that have played your game over the years. So here is some homework for you find out how many people have download your game then multiply by 3 minimum this will give you the lowest likelihood of times you have had people give you 5-8 shot salute 🫡.  Con’t the good work Take Care 😉

Thank you so much!

hi

Could you please tell me how to patch it?

🙏

The FAQ page in the Wiki might help you.

when can we expect the next update for this game

when can we expect the next update for this game

When it is ready.

There is FAQ page in the Wiki.

(+4)(-3)

Hey, not sure if you're aware -- if you don't know the answer, you don't have to respond to the question. The attitude is unnecessary. You clearly don't know any more than the original commenter, so trying to lord over them and be condescending is honestly weird.

You're also weirdly active on this page (yet have no actual direct answers for anything other than how Ren'Py works in general) and every comment you leave has an attitude. You're literally a dude playing a porn game, just like everyone else here. You are no better than anyone else here. Humble yourself, and stop being a jerk to everyone.

Hope this helps.

(+2)(-1)

if you don’t know the answer, you don’t have to respond to the question.

I do know the answer to the question.

Is the problem the answer or reference to the FAQ page? I do not find either of them have a negative attitude. I try to write short and terse answers. Questions answered in the FAQ page in the Wiki are asked quite a lot, so it seems useful to remind there is FAQ page.

I can stop lurking on this forum if that is the will of the people.

Customer service can be a tricky skill to master, I still fail at it all the time because I can be tired, annoyed, or frustrated with something irrelevant, so I sometimes unintentionally come across as an asshole if I provide a quick and blunt response for example.

I also would have given the answer that it's ready when it's ready, or more likely, not answer at all because I will make that clear in a post any time I do actually know.

It is very helpful to have someone knowledgeable answering questions for me, but people have certain expectations when engaging with a legitimate business. Pleasantries will go a long way, even if it's a performance, and everyone knows it. While we don't know each other, you are acting in my place by answering meta questions, so people have expectations tied to that.

(+1)(-1)

extremely confused by this response as they seem to have answered the question perfectly, and clearly without attitude.

(3 edits)

They answered nothing with their comment. OP asked when the next release is coming, and bad boy bobby over here said "when it's ready." That's not an answer; it's a pointless contribution lol

If you read their other comments across this page, you'd see what we're all talking about. Actually, you can just click their page and see their comments all across itchio for that matter. He's on several pages trying to speak for developers, as if they can't speak for themselves, most of the time not actually answering anything, and kinda being a dick about it. It's wild. At one point, someone commented asking about development progress towards a translation, and his response was, "If you want it so bad, you do the work." Or he'll answer a question and be like "Like I JUST said three hours ago...." as if he's legally obligated to be here or something lol

The developer himself (above your comment) addressed him having an attitude while answering questions on the developer's behalf -- instead of letting the developer answer. And the developer was friendly and professional about it -- not a dick.

I hope that clears up your confusion.

(+1)(-1)

Hm, I can see your point of view ctfvy. It can be misconstrued due to how they are responding to others. And honestly? Could be Autism! Not even being demeaning or rude about it. After reading his comment, immediately i thought "what a smartass. You said a whole lot of nothing. No meaningful words or content." But, can I definitely say he was being a smartass or malicious? Nope! I havent seen his other comments because im new here, but I can see how one could jump to your conclusion. If it wasnt you, someone else would have said something, and probably with a lot more hostility. 


Remember Kate from the game? He sort of talks like her 😅

(4 edits)

Yeah, I 100% think your input is valid... but my 10 year old son has autism and shows way more kindness and tact than this guy. I absolutely get what you're saying, and I think it's kind of you to try to see their asshole-ness from their point of view, but autism isn't an excuse for being a dick. Someone asked about the progress on a translation of the game and his response was "If you want it so bad, you do the work." lol

Side note, I honestly was really upset about the way Kate was portrayed...... she's the only story I refused to finish. People with autism aren't emotionless shells... But I love this game, and realistically the audience isn't large enough that it's actually affecting their already highly stigmatized disability so... I guess at least they're getting recognition. But yeah, the first interaction I had with Kate I was like "yeah... this definitely seems like they're trying to create an autistic character based on what they see on tv" and then she came right out and said it 😬 oh well

I really hope their has been additions to Kate's story. It can absolutely be smoothed out, but there is a decent foundation. She is a side-character, but so much fun potential. I absolutely got attached and wanted more. Im going to wait for .21 rather than .20. The former should have story updates.


Outside of that, I can't disagree with you much. Mind you, content like this will attract more unsavory types than normal content. Calling them out and sticking up for others is always a good thing in my book, just dont let it wear down on your mental, cause i know it wears me down!!! Haha.

(+1)

Has HH always been offsite? Its been so long since I bought it. I wish I could just use the itch.io app because updating in Lutris is a pain in the ass. Love all the new content though. Still one of the best AVNs.

(+1)(-3)

Has HH always been offsite?

This version (v0.19.x) is not on Itch.io file server. v0.18.x worked with Itch App. I do not know what is the reason game is now “offsite”, I guess it is too big now, being 13 Gigabytes.

I play on Ubuntu Linux. Installing and updating means unpacking the zip to a directory. I have not considered that is much pain at all.

Respecto al español. Te recomendaria que no usases traduccion directa, puede haber algunas palabras que no se entiendan.

Regarding Spanish, I would recommend that you don't use direct translation; there may be some words that aren't understood.

Also, thanks, i will enjoy this VN

(+1)

The Spanish translation team acknowledged the issues and are remaking the translation from scratch. I don't fully understand it since I'm not very proficient in Spanish, but this is what I've heard.

Está en español?

(+1)(-2)

Yes, choose Spanish from the Options menu. You can see available languages in the “More Information” -box above.

Unfortunately the translation is not complete, some dialog is not translated and remains in English. I seems there is a new Spanish translation group redoing the translation, but it is work in progress for now.

By the way, same question was asked 19 hours ago. You could read the old discussions before asking. There is also FAQ page in the Wiki.

(+2)

Honestly i love this game ever since i started playing it a week ago i have no complaints. for being a “gooner” game it has better writing than than most games and even movies im pretty sure im almost done with most content on the recent patch cant wait for V0.20 all the build up and extra content coming in that patch sounds amazingggg!!

(+3)

For whatever reason I've become obsessed with speedrunning this game... fun fact, the rng roll for most money amounts occurs on the same frame that displays the amount. So when it says you got X amount, you can quicksave there and quickload to reroll the rng until you get the maximum amount possible. Are you proud of me, Kali?

The gameplay is getting a major addition in v0.20. You'll have to let me know what you think! Dev diary coming soon.

(-5)

Bring Turkish language now!

(+2)(-2)

Like I answered two days ago:

All translations are done by volunteers. Turkish comes when Turkish volunteers do the translation.

There is FAQ page in the Wiki.

Since you so much want Turkish support, join or form a translation group to do the work. Another way is to pool funds from all Turkish players and pay for the translation.

It seems there was Turkish translation in 2021, but work has stopped since. I guess the old translation is available somewhere, so part of the game is already translated.

(2 edits) (+2)

The Turkish translation does not exist without Turkish translators. I appreciate your enthusiasm, but this is our third time answering you. I cannot translate the game into Turkish myself.

I  have not played this game yet, should I just download 19.1 and all is good? Or do I need to patch it?

Version 0.19.1 is the latest. You do not need to patch it until v0.19.2 releases.

There is FAQ page in the Wiki.

Muchísimas gracias, estaré esperando la versión completa en español con ansias

So... How do I install it on Android?

(+1)

Instructions can be found on this page, right above the comments.

(PC User) I have v0.18.0, to get v0.19.1 would it be better to uninstall then download the newer one, or is there a patch I should add?
Thanks for the great game Runey!

(+1)

There is a patch, look above on this page under the Download -heading.

To get from v0.18.0 to the latest, you must first patch to v0.18.2 and then patch to v0.19.1.

If you skip the v0.18.2, the garden.rpa file is wrong version.

There is a FAQ paget in the Wiki, it has info on save files when updating.

ok thanks, will try that.

(-2)

Great game! Alas, continuity doesn't always work out between all the threads.

I would suggest to find a backdoor for Gaius concerning Autumn, if you catch my drift.

I'm sure I've missed something. I need to see it to fix it though!

I'll make sure to note it down from now on.

Thank you

Just at the Sigma Signal show part.... I'm crying :D

Sorry but, dafuq

The endgame stories just don't add up at all, just driving the queen for absolutely no reason - that's lazy ass awful

Sorry, I was completely hammered at the time and just didn't get it :D

Guess I'm just sad that the story seems to be about to be wrapped up and it all seems so rushed all of a sudden :(

No, there's still plenty to go.

Cool :) - It's just that so many things happened so fast all of a sudden and some of the stories collided towards the end of 19. I understand it's a Work in Progress and all - nevermind me ;) - just got confused, I love your work 

Btw. I love the Naki Bum, he's a bit like.... Morn from DS9 :D - kinda always there in the background

It seems there is moderation on the comments posted.

An 11 days old and two 5 days old posts appeared, I guess someone reviewed them and released them for public view.

How come this moderation does not prevent the posts with spam links appearing every day?

(1 edit) (+3)

Itch.io has some sort of automod monitoring every post, and I believe I read somewhere that it learns what should be hidden through our reports. If that's true, it doesn't work very well. It has never caught actual spam.

In any case, it almost only hides posts from new members, but doesn't tell me about it, so I have to check the "pending posts" section from time to time and manually approve posts from new members.

"A new post or topic may be placed in the pending queue if it is flagged by the spam detector, or by the moderation settings of the community. Posts here will not be visible to others until approved by a moderator."

I am not aware of any "moderation settings of the community" besides allowing comments, but that's what it tells me.

(+2)

I didn't have any expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised.

I didn't expect such a high level of social and political commentary from what I thought was 'just an adult game'.

The characters become more interesting as their stories progress, which makes the setting of slavery and injustice seem even worse — I suppose, in this sense, that's a good thing? 

I was also impressed by the artwork in new locations and flashbacks. I'm really curious to see how the story progresses  and what future updates will bring. 

I'm not good at commenting or reviewing, but i tried.

With that being said, I should head back to the hotel. ᴬˢʰˡᵉʸ ⁱˢ ᵖʳᵒᵇᵃᵇˡʸ ᵍᵒⁱⁿᵍ ᵗᵒ ᵍᵉᵗ ᵐᵃᵈ ⁱᶠ ⁱ'ᵐ ᵍᵒⁿᵉ ᶠᵒʳ ᵗᵒᵒ ˡᵒⁿᵍ...

Thank you so much!

Ohh and also you can get softlocked from Jin's side story because you can't go to the city to buy her supplies after last Lin's event

Heya, love the game but continuity is kinda broken.


  1.  Everything revolving around stoneface. You can do F&E events and you magically know that he is stoneface without doing Maria's events and you know he has Ren without doing Ashley's events.
  2. While visiting the queen with Lin, no one knows about fairies but then in the next scene with Sylvia she is aware of their existence and even says that she had some too
  3. A lot of events acknowledge that Kali is now going to college without doing the college event. You can even still visit her in work while it should be Lucy now.

Overall a cool game, love it

Hey zenny! Looks like the automod flagged your comments as suspicious for some reason. I just now saw them.

There are two or three ways you can find out who Stoneface is, so I'm sure I've missed something along the way. Unfortunately there is not much I can do with the information provided. I would need to know the levels of Ashley, Maria, and F&E, and know which event you're on and or the line of dialogue that is breaking continuity.

There is certainly an issue with Sylvia and the fairies. The way I wrote it seems confusing to a fair amount of people which is ultimately my fault. Sylvia has always known about the fairies, but she didn't mention them because they play a specific role outside of the island they were going to. Sylvia also fully believed that her queen was a demi-god capable of doing unexplainable things. The best way to use fairies though, is through intrigue and deception. Sylvia had no clue what fairies were capable of outside of being spies, so she didn't know what was going on. This is all my internal logic though, it doesn't mean it portrayed the best way it could have been.

Number 3 sounds like it could be a client-side bug, but I would need specifics to check it. The level of Kali when the bug occurred, and a screenshot of any dialogue that is out of place.

Hi, can you please update the file in Google Drive? It just won't let me download the game. I'd be very grateful.

Downloading from Google Drive has worked so far. But it has user limit so too many downloads at the same time does not work.

Try downloading from the Mediafire link.

Google drive links reach their capacity very quickly. I recommend trying the other links.

Oh my, Ally in the park is like the cutest thing ever

Hey!

im new to using joiplay i have the game setup (I think) but everytime i press to play it just comes up with "checking plugin configuration", then it just closes down any help? 

So you are playing on Android?

Try to again follow the instructions above on this page, the “How to play on Android”. If that does not help, there are Youtube videos on installing Renpy games on Android with Joiplay.

Take care to use the version Joiplay 7.7.1 and renpy plugin like instructed.

I succeeded if I unpacked the files in joiplay itself. And then use the joiplay folder to launch it, and everything works.  (But this is not certain.)

Thanks for the help but i gave up already have a nice day!!!!

(1 edit)

Is there anyway to just install Android as a apk

Unfortunately not. apk has a 2GB filesize limit with Renpy.

Dang

downloaded the game but it wont launch.  i tried both applications regular and the 32 one. 


any advice?

(1 edit)

There is FAQ page in the Wiki.

You did not say on what platform you are running the game: Linux, Windows, Mac or Android.

Which file did you download, from where? How did you install the game?

(1 edit)

i downloaded the one for PC and there wasnt a prompt to install just a winrar file and unpacked into a folder on one of my drives. 


also the FAQ just says it helps to attach a error code with a post to easier diagnose the issue. but the game just wont launch at all so no error code to give. 

(4 edits)

to install just a winrar file

Files downloaded from this site are .ZIP files, not winrar.

So the file you should downloaded is this one:

Harem Hotel v0.19.1 PC/Android

It is indeed installed by unpacking to a directory.

Are you running Windows? I do not use Windows myself, but I remember discussions about malware protection that prevents running programs from directory not under C:/Program Files . So try making HH directory under C:/Program Files or C:/Program Files (x86) .

I am a bit surprised there is no message or error popup when trying to start the .exe. Maybe antivirus must allow the file to exexute ?

Heya It's me again. It seems my message was still passed through moderation, so after three days (actually a week...) I was able to get it working through trial and error... So, I managed to do it... Unzip the files into the emulator itself... Not through the RAR... It took longer, but it works! (I love your game by the way, it helped me escape college and stress, so... You helped me stay sane! Thanks so much for that.)

I love this game like everyone else but ending each update on cliffhanger is not it. The story is really interesting, one of the best I may say but waiting one year for an event that only makes me want to know what's next even more is painful :(

This comment is by no means meant to be negative. Love your work and I hope you will keep delivering good story :)

(3 edits) (+2)(-1)

Thank you!

I don't think v0.19 has any cliffhangers, but I understand wanting more! In some cases, like in v0.18, events need to be split in parts because they're so large, but they're not intentionally made to be cliffhangers. This is however a story being written in real time, so there are questions still unanswered.

Yearly updates are not my typical schedule, I've just had a hectic life lately.

No telling what the future holds, but for now I finally have a lot of time. Those things keeping me busy have mostly been solved as of two months ago.

Is there a Discord server in this game?


(I tried to click join Discord on Harem Hotel, but it didn't lead me to invite)

There is a Discord server. Link is at top of this web page, under the game logo.

Are you 18 or over? Discord prevents you from joining if you're under 18.

Enjoying the game so far but is still broke💔💔💔 I'm genuinely wondering how to sell pinups because I have 0 clue of what it is, only been doing deliveries and rents so far it's killing me

(+1)

how to sell pinups because

Make the girls like you, then visit them in their room. Ask for a photo session, then after session you can keep the photos or sell them.

If you want to make money, grow crops in the garden. When you can afford, build the bar restaurant.

I have followed this game since the beginning and can say without a doubt the H-scenes to plot ratio is perfect. I believe this is one of my top favorites and if your looking for a plot and fun this game is the best recomended. Thank's to the author and dev's to this game and look forward to future updates!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy the balance.

All the masturbation has made me go blind. And now I can't follow the amazing story.

Could you add an option to increase text size in the next version? Or is there some config file I could edit to increase the text now?

(+1)

In all RenPy -games there is Accessibility menu. Reach it with hotkey “a”.

Use “Text size scaling”. Font Override may also help make text more readable.

Amazing game! Just finished it. I want to continue playing (I have some side character events left), but your final message congratulating us for finishing the game keeps poping up all the time though. Any way to disble it?

(+1)

Are you playing version 0.19.1? There was a bug like you describe in older version, was fixed in v0.19.1.

(1 edit)

Thank you, olastes! Yeah, that bug was fixed in v0.19.1. You can use the patch for a quicker fix.

You've got a major continuity error between sylvia's and Lin's stories.  In Lin's Sylvia doesnt seem to know how the queen does what she does, but in Sylvia's she sits in the fast food place casually explaining all of it.

Also multiple instances towards the tail end of the story so far where if you dont do the events in the correct order things will be referenced in one character's story that haven't happened yet because you haven't done an event in another character's, or characters who have had major changes in their story will seem to regress because you did theirs first, Ashley's makeover reverting if you don't go through enough of felicity and emma's scenes before playing ashleys for instance.  So you might want to go through at some point and change some trigger variables so that it doesnt seem like the player is jumping back and forth through time.

(2 edits)

Hey Super, thanks for the reports.

I just looked through Sylvia's event there, I couldn't find any instance where she says she knew her former Queen's tricks. I could be missing something though. But she does explain that high elvish warriors usually have three fairies teamed up with them, and that crystals are used by fairies. Is this what you're referring to? As Sylvia stated on the boat, she has seen her former queen do things she cannot explain. "I've seen her make it rain with the snap of her fingers.", the floating knives were extrapolated from that by Sylvia to be another magical thing she cannot explain. Fairies don't even have the strength to drive a dagger into anyone, so the queen using fairies for that would be nothing but a bluff, and Sylvia is aware of that. And that's exactly what it was!

It would help me fix any inconsistencies if you were to share exact dialogue or screenshots. It's just almost impossible for me to playtest every scenario myself.

I believe Ashley mentions at one point in the story that she goes back and forth between blonde pigtails and her brown natural look. I know, it's a ton of work for Ashley to do that, but she does. Most characters have an odd transition period between their "tier 1" look and "tier 2" look, where you may see them in both on the same day. As time goes on, they appear in their "tier 2" look 100% of the time. It's an unfortunate byproduct of a 2D game not based in sprites.

In every case where it's necessary I will account for which events the player has witnessed to avoid inconsistencies. Things will certainly slip through the cracks though, and I cannot personally test every scenario myself, so your help is very valuable. The game is designed for you to progress the stories at your own pace, with limited restriction. This means everyone's story is slightly different, and no save has the same history.

(1 edit)

I was referring to sylvia explaining the training with Faeries, i was trying to do so without spoilers since i cant seem to figure out how to do spoiler tags.  But its mostly because she had previously talked about the queen levitating things as if she didnt know how it was done, and made no mention of the faeries before that.  She also didnt seem to understand what the "feeling of bugs" on her skin was during the confrontation.  It seemed to give the impression that she didnt know about the faeries.


As far as the appearance of time jumping for Ashley, I think it's mostly because past a certain point she doesn't go back to blonde pigtails in any of her own scenes and switched to a different wardrobe, but has them in felicity and Emma's and wear her old clothes.  I mean its clearly just that those scenes were made before the character redesign, but it does give the impression of a timeline.  I'd recommend just pushing back Ashley's first scene with the new look to after the last scene with her old look with felicity and Emma, but its really more of an immersion thing than continuity there since I don't think there are any major story beats or references to anything major in those scenes.

There is however a scene where Maria says she will follow someone (the cat i think?) On her socials that can trigger after her DNA test when all her socials are deleted and scenes in I believe Ashley's story where first Lin references the owl clan and then the MC remembers the gang bangers from the visit to the owl clan that can trigger before you ever visit them.  Wish I could be more specific but I wasn't really taking notes on which event I was at.

I totally get the game is still being developed and with this many characters, the sandbox nature, and stories becoming more interconnected that stuff is going to slip through the cracks sometimes.  Just thought I'd point it out in case it's something you want to tweak in future updates.


Edit: So also for a specific example, Maria's 38th and 39th event can occur after Felicity's kidnapping.  So the MC runs into Beaumont at the poker game and doesnt even comment on Felicity being gone in the 38th, and in the 39th she's present in the bar during maria's roleplay.

Its a very heartwarming story, its not too repetitive (beside my money managing issue), my only weird thing is called the twin the clone...

Thank you! Balancing the economy is a never-ending battle.

Hey! just wanted to write in and say that i love the writing of all the characters! Even random and (some seemingly) unimportant characters have really funny lines, actions or personalities. The story is also very captivating. 10/10 would download again

Thank you :)

hi body iI'm happy to found your game but I don't know how to download joyplay.could you give me a URL to download the joiplay .

thank youvery much
