Harem Hotel (18+)
Dev Diary #4
Hello everyone! Unfortunately I lost power soon after my last post. Since it was snowing and temperatures were severe, I spent a few days in a hotel which made things much harder, but since then, development has been going fairly smoothly.
I have some more bad news though. Unfortunately the custom art program will be put on an indefinite pause as the custom artist has surprisingly decided to take an indefinite break, and I am incapable of keeping up with that demand myself while also developing the game. I hope you can understand.
Back to development. Since my last post, I've developed more environments, characters, and planned most of the content I plan to include in v0.17! As well as some plans for v0.18 and beyond. We'll see how things go though, the hardest part of development is the actual event making process which has not begun yet. I plan to start making events and uploading patron builds starting next week. I'm feeling very good about starting full on development this time, I just hope I didn't plan some events too big haha.
Thank you all for being so patient with me! I would love to get this stuff done faster, but life has different plans sometimes. It's especially hard when I want to try to balance my work life with my social life. So thank you all so much for supporting!
I'd like to keep as much as possible a surprise for you all, so I won't share too much detail about what's coming this time. But at least one new Explore location should be coming, and if I have extra time, I will try to fit in repeatable sex content for the side characters hanging out in the hot springs.
Translators Needed!
The translation efforts so far have been a success, but we need more volunteers! If you're interested in joining the team, and are willing to dedicate months or years to supporting this project, please send me a DM on discord.
Any and all languages are accepted.
Lewd previews during development can be found on my Twitter and Discord
As always, thank so much for playing and supporting!

How about Thai language, I might be capable of doing it. For my favorite game!
That would be awesome! You would be the first to offer :) Please reach out to me on discord!
Hey there, should have posted this under Dev Diary #1 i guess, but i don't check itch all too often so i missed the posts since then.
One bit of feedback i wanted to give: I really liked in the beginning when ashley and the twins don't get along at all and are at each others throats all the time, because everyone liking everyone, threesomes left and right are somewhat bland if it's the norm for all characters. In the progression of the story, the the twins and ashley come closer and finally make up their bullying and stuff which is kind of the point there.
Ashley's birthday party event (i think?) has her shouting at Android, which i liked again, because it's a normal human reaction and not everyone MUST like everyone, relations can and will shift, people will be jealous etc., but it's a rare occurence in the game overall.
So if you could include stuff that makes the characters relationships feel even more authentic (they're very well written, don't get me wrong), i'd appreciate that greatly. Imo this game has some of the most likeable and diverse characters which is great, but their interactions sometimes blend into the same "we love master and we love each other weeee" one is used from most games and that's lost potential imo.
Keep up the great work.
It's always been my goal to make the characters feel authentic. I'm not turning it into "we love master and we love each other weee"... unless you're talking about sex scenes? They're horny.
Hey!
sended you a dm on discord , would be glad to help out with italian translations.
I could help with a german translation, if you want to.
Thanks for the offer! I think the German team has just filled up though.
I thought that might be the case - good luck ^^
Great game bruv, keep up the good work!
i have hard time understanding the model what’s your incentive to deliver the game fast if people pay you per month, i remember giving you some money years ago and the game is still not finish yet, it seems like you get paid way more than you should for a very basic game that will be outdated when it’s finish if ever , who keeps you in check , i mean you started this game in 2017 ? 2018 ? Really sorry i don’t dont want to be rude but damn i was sure the game was done by now
It will be done when it's done. The incentive is to create something good because no one wants anything done fast and bad. That's how most AAA games get made these days.
That’s what i thought there just no incentives for you to be fast, i hate this model, thanks anyway
There should never be an incentive to rush. That's how mistakes occur, that's how a bad product is delivered. I'm lucky to be in a position where I'm not so stressed about my work and am able to deliver a good product. That's how everyone's job should be.

Hey could you do something about the size of the game like 10gb for Android.... I think it's to much . I get that the content is much more like the size of the game but like atleast 6 gb ....
Harem Hotel is over 90GB and is always compressed down to about 10% of its original size.
Take your time and I wish you all the best~ <3
Thanks, and sorry. Life is hectic for me right now and I would really like to get updates out faster.
This game is great, it's going to be exciting what's to come in the future.
is there plans to add sound like moans and all that to scenes?
YESSS we need that
Hey Runey, I hope you're not stressing yourself out when it comes to the release schedule. I think I can speak for a lot of people when I say that it's worth the wait for game of this depth and quality. The fact that you take the time to post updates on your progress is the sign of a great developer.
Agreed there is no game without you. Take care and we'll all wait.
I too support self care and have no problem waiting a little longer. Its a great game and quality content. Take care and keep up the great work.
Totaly agree here!
Life remains to be hectic, but I'm getting through it :) Thanks
Why cant i play the game on mobile? I follow the steps but it just keeps crashing when i want start it
How long do you plan to keep developing this game? Will there ever be an end or can you imagine continuing to work on it?
Just wanted to say thank you to you and the crew! For all your hard work, and also super keen to see more content. Love your work!
Out of curiosity, how far do you plan to go with this game? Ver. 0.30 or something?
Until it's done :)
Or people lose interest.
Get it finished and Steam and GIG await you....! :)
I'll wait forever
"Or people lose interest."
I would never loose interest in my precious Lin ^^
Sorry to hear about your artist and remember to take care of yourself. I'm sure I speak for the majority of us who would rather have solid content and you be healthy instead of you torturing yourself to make timelines. You are only one person after all.
i couldnt have said it better myself
Thanks :)
Don't worry, take all the time you need, we will always be supporting you and good luck in everything you set out to do :D
sorry about your artist
