Harem Hotel

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to start Nia's content in the latest public update.  There's an exclamation mark next to her name in the stats page, but no matter how or when I talk to her, nothing really happens.  Is this a bug?

Are you by any chance a high-functioning autistic person? If not, I'm surprised how well you got the condition for Kate written, because I am high-functioning autistic with ADHD, and I relate to her on a spiritual level.

Why is it my posts are getting downvotes? I don’t see what is so bad in my postings. Is it perhaps always the same person voting -1? Is there a Negative Nelly on this forum?

I created the account with the specific purpose to leave a comment on this game.

While AVNs are widely seen as having lewd content as a main thing, there are some, few of them, which are truly gems from every point of view, and Harem Hotel is one of them.
As a writer with 6 published books, I was astonished by the plot twists and the crazy - in a good way - ideas that Runey is offering us, and I have to admit that I was on my toes while playing this game  - fourth time, that is.

I am not going to give any spoilers; however, it's amazing how the Dev was able to give every character it's own personality in a way that you can almost feel them with you, understand hem and empathize with them... even shed a tear with them.
Placing normal people in a futuristic environment allowed the dev to imagine some twisted situations which are blowing your mind, but the huge achievement is the realistic actions and reactions of every character, according to its personality.
This is one of the aspects that separates Harem Hotel from the countless other AVNs - it is NOT a graphic novel where people (or other creatures) are fucking each other's brains out, but a complete life story, which is very hard to achieve by using 3D renders and text, but Runey is doing it at a level that clearly shows that this dude (or dudette, haha!!) have a special talent many AVN author would love to have.

Let me be clear: I'm into lewd stuff like the the next guy, but it needs to be in a context which is believable, like I pound this woman because I love her, not because my dick is craving for any possible hole. The Dev is doing exactly this: is giving you, as the player, a reason for everything.
I was playing this game with my wife, and she was in tears when the characters suffered, and that tells a lot... the bitch is not a sissy, I can tell you THAT, haha! 

Earning my cash from 3D projects, I am able to look on the renders with a bit of critical eye, and let me tell you this, Runey: you, Sir (or Ma'am) are good. Not only on writing an astonishing story, but from the graphic point of view as well. The way you optimized the graphic, the camera positioning, the lighting, the focus, they are very good, not to mention the small details  that give each and every character the unique traits that define them in the story context.
As a published writer, I can tell you this: you're good, really good. When I'm working on a book, the toughest part is to build the whole context in order to give the reader the feeling of credibility and continuity, I'm sure you know what I mean. You're doing it, and you're doing it really well. In fact, I can see a whole book based on your AVN.

As a man born and raised in a normal world, I am a bit annoyed by the terms „they” and „them” given to certain characters, but I guess it's because of the need to be „politically correct”... which I am not. For me, a Man is something with a dick sticking in a pussy, that's it - to put it in a „lewd” and stupid way.
I don't mean to offend anyone with this, but it's too late to change my way of thinking now, haha! You cannot teach an old horse to do tricks...

To summarize, Harem Hotel is one of the best AVN I play - and I am really picky, trust me - and I really hope you will get the support you deserve, Dev!

Congratulations, Runey!

I've completed all the content up to the patch, it's all very good and all and Runey is a super talented writer and dev. however it's mentioning the fact i've completed all the content (as in the message from Runey) nearly every interaction with anything (doors characters etc most dialogues end/start with the thank you message) 

not sure if there's something i can do about this lol

Damn i love the game , so much content but yet im still not fully satisfied . I wish i could help you creating this masterpiece but im no programmer lol . I think the thing that bother me te most for now is that fact that android keep switching back and forth from phase one to phase 2 and vice versa .. i prefer phase 2 but she's always in phase 1 in the hotel .. also i have a suggestion.. would you consider adding a trans into the pool of character? She could be an Elf that they try to transform into the ultimate sex/maid or something and even an other android . Thanks for the game runey and cant wait for the next uptade

hi, i don't know why but i can't download it, someone can help me  

can u add more pov scene please

Hey Runey! I just wanted to say what an amazing game you have so far! Like most I came for the... fun... but stayed for the story. Being someone who has gone through some trauma younger, I found myself deeply connected to a few of the main characters. I wasn't expecting to cry for some of these scene's... That's for sure.  

Thank you for such an amazing game, I'm probably 3/4ths through v19, and look forward to v20!

I will never get over starting a game like this and love just getting lost in the plot 

Yo, Runey, i have a question mate, about the age of the game, do you have something in mind for the 10 years? i know i'm getting a little bit ahead, but you know, the time fly.
Another thing i would like to see its... a elf, a gray elf, or maybe not because you have map route about the developing. 
So, thx mate for this game, its making my vacations more funny, bye lad

tried a fix for the error with the garden when going to sleep that a commenter suggested, replaced my garden.rpa file with the one from the 18.2 update. just getting a new error now

EDIT: just realised its probably v18.rpa, gonna try replacing that too

EDIT 2: it didnt work

SPOILERS

after completing lins new story event you cant explore the city anymore because its on lockdown. i never did the new events around the city before this so is there any way i can do them now? or do i just have to reload a save

how to get cheat code actually ? i just want to skip content that i already play before and reinstall it back , i already try makeitstorm but not valid anymore , can anyone help

I have to say that I'm enjoying this game more than expected and it's because of the world building and the characters are very compelling. I love the idea for the new update since it currently feels a lot more like an apartment rather than a hotel. Please tell me that fourth room on the second floor will eventually be filled by a new main character? Eris maybe. I would also love some more Kate, Nia, and Sylivia.  Anyways, keep it up. I'm looking forward to the update

Hey.

When are you planning the next update?

getting this error when going to sleep, seems to be something to do with the garden

With all the new stuff in 0.20 does that mean more garden stuff for ingredients? The garden is very fun, and I would love to see more added to it.

I can't trigger moon level 4

ando atascado en el nivel 30 de maria que debo hacer ?

So, I can't update the game anymore... it was already in my library when the most recent update was released, but whenever I try to update I get hit with a "title hosted on an incompatible third party website"
 error message.

Hi, whenever I play, I like to use the money cheat, but I changed devices and my game was deleted. I downloaded it again and it tells me that the cheat is invalid. Is it still the same or did they change it?

How do I progress after I've fully upgraded the garden? The wiki says I can buy tools and seeds in the Park but the city is under lockdown.

what is the code i have to tell the girl at the school

Hey there, I have a question. Ive been playing this for a while now (patch 0.12? dunno, when Autumn only had 1 chapter), but I believe I have a bug happening.

When I bought Lin's sister, she had her addiction going on. I know I could have had sex with her and all, but I opted to have her go cold turkey. However, after that her dialogue has been entirely the same through all the updates; I talk to her, ask how shes doing, and shes hanging in there. Nothing else. No other available actions either. Yet her story currently is on 5/9, and I havent been able to make any progress on this.

Is this a bug of sorts?

I'm troubled with the direction you're taking the android. being so naive with life and her social skills just doesn't feel right. with the access she has to the internet she should be able to master any social interaction, read into any social situation. hell, she could be a therapist, a doctor, a master of all trades. she would know bragging and showing off would be the wrong way to go. she could understand every awkward situation and avoid it. she could easily be the life of any party. i feel you made her character weaker than she should have been when she could have been your strongest and most supportive. the one everyone went to for support, advice and encouragement. i love your game and i'm not saying i have all the answers with how you should tell your story. it just seems weird making her so smart and so dumb.

oh yeah, plexiglass insulated circuitry with double aluminum or copper plating is EMP proof. all of our military equipment has it. you can also protect against lightning, tasers, even solar flares. she could have the sociology degree of Maria only better, the computer skills of Kali only better, the vigilantism of Nia only better. a beautiful, sexy spy/super hero of perfection.

Hi, firstly, I'd like to say thank you for making this game. It's honestly one of, if not the best VN that I have ever played, and recently I have been on a bit of a VN streak. :D everything from the story to animations to the gameplay has been great (though the opening cutscene does need a remake, as it's a bit stiff)

secondly, if it's okay, I'd like to give a bit of feedback and report a few continuity errors. 

(1): The game does need a way to allow you to earn cash a bit faster. As the elves were to expensive to buy while doing the story, and having to spend an in-game month or two just to collect cash was a bit tedious.

(2): The bowling tournament would be quite interesting if it wasn't just a dice roll. having some input, if that is possible in ren'py, would be nice.

then for the continuity errors.

(1): Felicity got taken away, yet she was still in Ashley's story to search for Ren.

(2): Maria got taken away, and before she got back, there were two cutscenes where she was still in the hotel. one with Felicity and Emma (if I recall correctly, it's the naki one, but it was because the scene for Maria's return played after that one), and the another one I don't recall exactly, but they were in the lobby.

(3): The noodle shop guy doesn't recognize us during Ren's search, even though we meet him in the slums exploration in the city.

Windows v0.19.1

Yo, Runes. I've been playing for more years than I can even remember at this point. I love the game and I have a couple minor ideas you could easily throw in. 

-A meta joke where someone asks why everyone finds the main character so appealing. "He has such beautiful eyes". Obviously 

-I assume you have the 3D models you used for the figurines still. It'd be kinda neat to see them in game. Maybe as decorations in Kali's room. 

-An arcade box in the lobby. Port some generic Atari clone code as one of Ellen's upgrades. You could then go further and tie some minor content to beating the roster of characters on the leaderboard. This would add substantial gameplay with minimum effort and add life to the world.

Keep up the good work. Looking forward to playing for years to come.

Is there an ETA for 2.0 for us poor folks?

I just re-downloaded the game and I still really like it, what a great story you've created!

Does this game involve pregnancy or filling the belly with semen?

Im once your fans but nowadays I can't download the new version cuz my phone don't have storage for it I hope I can play this master piace again
