itch.io

Definitely doesn't sound like something people would/should pay  8$ for.

Also true for win64

Unsure if it's just me, but 1.75 win64 doesn't "start"
I get in the menu, but i can neither load something, nor start a new game, nothing happens.

Options open, but that's all. Also don't hear anything in the menu, unsure if there is just no sound, or if that too doesn't work.

So, I haven't played in a long time, but my previous save was quite progressed.
My last save was in a dojo, and I was already quite far with the progression with the Girls.
Now, when I load that save with the 0.9.0f update, I only have 3 silouhettes (Luna and 2 others) in the Relationship-Tab, which is kinda strange? When I start a complete new save, all silouhettes are there.
Not sure if the game progresses more than one year, as the calendar doesn't show a year, but it starts at May 8th, while my save was in September. 
Soo. is there a way to fix the Relationship-Tab with my old save to continue it? Also, the Dojo was gone after I slept, don't remember how to access it.

Ah yes, another way to show my progression might be my stats?
Charisma 75, Creativity 78, Fitness 74, Knowledge 56, Subtelty 102, Restaurant Popularity 702. - Would be a shame to lose all that just to have access to the new content :(

Which would still make it a dead game on itch.


It's also great that they posted  "Fun with AI - Public Version" on 23. June, which you also can only access as a patreon, so not sure what that news actually means.

They also announced a public release in january on patreon, couldn't find anything in that regard as well.

0.9.2 More Faye content, bugfixes, outfit tweaks. (possible 0.9.3 update, which was released on tfgames.site today)

0.9.2 More scenes with Alex in Psychology, new work route

Yea, it's a long time, but it took them already 6 months  to get from 8.3 to 9 on patreon, and 9.6. was just uploaded in May
So either it is abandoned here, or the public release will just be "around the corner".
9.5 is uploaded on several different sites, but it's the question if it's uploaded by HopesGaming or someone else, as well as if you trust those other sites to download it from or not.

It would be easier to know if it's abandoned if we could get infos from HopesGaming themselves or is a patreon could share information from the lastest news about Releases, which was posted on patreon in April.

It's kinda strange though.

We have public 0.8.3 here, on patreon there are 0.9.6 payed but only 0.7.2 public. That's a bit inconsistant.

Though, the question would be, if/when a 0.9 update will be released here, or if it truely is abandoned.

To compare this: 0.8.3 was released in June 2022 here, and January 2022 for patreons.

With 0.9.0 being released for patreons in January 2023, we could assume that we might get 0.9.0 on itch within june, or an updated release later this year. But if there is no update coming in 2023, then I'd assume it is really abandoned here.

Shame, would have looked forward to the change after the questioning we had with her

I gathered herbs, as far as I know, flowers, herbs and such, if I'm not wrong.

don't even know how to make potions at all. There's a workstation at home but can't do anything there. Didn't find any way to get some. Now I'm in a Game-Over-Loop at the Dungeon because 4 Power is not enough without a potion it seems. Yay...

Found it, thx

Problem is, when stripping her down, humiliation gets from 8 to 16, now you have to get enough points into humiliation, but that just denies you your pain/pleasure points
My best attempt so far was 9/9 - 14/16 - 9/9 or 9 - 15 - 8

Is this a patron thing? Because I know of no Cheat-Menu or even an event log.

Don't think so, while I can't read the full news on patreon (since I refuse to use it), the last post on it is from 23. July and starts with "Hi! While our artists are drawing the bulk of the content for the finals, we decided to redo the prologue as well. We are well aware that our"
You'd have to be a patreon to read more, but it seems they're still working on it.

The .0.8.2 Download takes us to tfgames, where there is only a download-link for .0.8.1

God. So good. I broke out in laughter when Luna deemed Eiza loyal. I didn't see that coming.

I think I'm 100% done with the current journal now. yay

Well, I saw a HJ and BJ so far, and the relationships are still progressing. 

I have 2., 4., 5. and 6. Recording.

Interesting. I rewatched the 6. recording again after loading the save today, and immediately got the 7. recording.
Just to be clear, I wachted all recordings I had almost every (or every second) day.
Maybe the trigger was bugged and got 'reloaded' again with loading the save.

EDIT:
Though, I have no further progress, I shall wait a couple ingame-days to see if it works now, since I got the 7th now.

EDITEDIT:
So, sleept through ~3 days and rewatched all recordings. After listening to the 7th again, the quest got triggered.
I think I can confirm now, that this quest is bugged.

I think I already waited over a week... but I'll check again.

So, I played for a couple hours now, progressed to Stage 9 of the Main-Story, Lv5 Soladato. I had around 6 saves by now, and as mentioned earlier, deleted all saves of the prior game-versions.

But now all of the old saves reappeared and my .08 saves are ALL gone, except for the auto-saves.... this is rather strange.

Is "the Magic Touch" fully impelemented yet? Because I spend many days and I haven't gotten the recording yet. Are there maybe any more (hidden) requirements?

EDIT:
So, I ignored the first message and I got to the main menu. Realized all my saves were from .06 appearently, even though I was quite sure I played .07.
Anyway, I deleted the old saves as they were not compatible anyway. Started a new game with full experience. Skipped the introduction, and during the home-tour, another error came up, this time a shorter one.

So I deleted all old files and only extracted the new ones. It works now just fine, but it would be interesting what leads to the problem in the first place.

I usually always update renpy-games by just extracting the new files over the old ones, and in ~90% of the time, there is no problem with that. 

So, I downloaded the new update and overwrote the 0.07 files. The game won't start anymore:

It certainly was an interesting insight.
But I wouldn't see this as a game, rather than just a story. The sounds and the "clicking to continue" doesn't really make it a game.

Anyhow, more people should see this story.

last post on their patreon was in january 2021, can't say what's written there though.

Oh yea, thanks for the reminder "Bugged" is a good word. When fighting the 'evil brother' (forgot his same) I managed to get stuck everytime after the cutscene were we rip through him. I think I could move again if I saved at that point and reloaded that save again. One time I could see the body of him still standing but inside me, which probably caused that bug.
I guess it would work if you'd move his body a bit away, so we're standing next to him, not over him.

So, I really couldn't get the ring playing nice, other than having sex with him. BUT I just got it by threatening and then fighting him. Which is kinda strange.

Thank's for the fast reply, I shall try again and see if I can get through

Did this change by now?
I talked to Friar, and he told me it was hidden. 
The only thing I can do with Boris is Threaten/Kill him or give him some pleasure.
Went to the Tree with vampiric vision in a save before talking with Boris, but there is no ring anywhere.

Same.

Also, I can't do anything in the living room. Family is watching TV, that's all. Can't join or anything.
Does this apply to you all too?

Same. Even if you start on a different day (by changing the date of the first day) the next day will always be Monday atm...

First of all, this is a game and nobody cares.
Second, it increases the risk yes, it can happen without that and due other reasons though.
Third, this is a game, nobody cares.
Forth, there are ~20 countries were incest is legal.
Fifth, it's a game, why do you care?

Sooo, I need to summon Debbie and Rachel to my office. How do I do that?
I only seem to get one of  them there, but not both.


EDIT: Ok, you have to use the phone in the office.... (before Samantha comes to you asking if you want to summon someone)

"set a date of January 28th for the release of version 0.12 beta."

Mega.nz seem to have changed some things. You can only download a certain amount for free and Harem Hotel seems to exceed that limit, downloaded 5gb (file-size is 7,71gb) have to wait for ~6 hours to contiune... 

GumdropGames seems to be one of those ppl who are really only active on their patreon and use itch.io for more reach but doesn't seem to care for the community there.

That's big. Calling non-americans dumb for their date-system but still using the imperial system instead of the far superior metric system. Not to mention using fahrenheit for temperature instead of celcius...
