VN Ren'Py Harem Hotel [v0.17.2] [Runey]

[robertfierce]

All HP devs had to do to get through the steam pornwall was to censor everything but instead offer the uncensor file on the game's main page! I'm sure you can make this work!

*Edit - Ah damn it! So you can not sell the game officially.

 

[robertfierce]

What about making your own basic website with a recurring payment button from something like Paypal?

You tell every patron about it and you tell us about it and we swap from giving money to patreon for free and instead giving you the entire pledge without you having to cut off for them? This should not get you in trouble with selling your game as the recurring payment would be for supporting you and not for the actual game as the game is made available for free by you anyway. Would that work?

 

[Hones]

They've done nothing but tell me to fix my shit. I'm not exactly sure what they mean, being the gods of vagueness they are. So I took down all traces of Ashley from my page, and took down the public download.

That's probably all you can do for now until someone from patreon actually talks to you then you can figure out the best way to go forward hopefully without removing any content. You would figure a large company like patreon could atleast spare a minute to write an email or something though

Can anyone upload the compression version of v0.6 Beta 3?

I doubt anyone is going to waste their time compressing a beta you will have to wait for the v0.6 release

@Hones
Oh, make sense.

Well firstly, Paypal really doesn't want to be associated with adult content. Only reason they allow it for Patreon is because Patreon is basically holding them back.

Business wise, Patreon numbers look better. Big numbers must mean a pretty good game.

And lastly, I would need to report all of the money I gain from my own website to the IRS. They way it's done now, is Patreon sends us a 1099-K that details exactly how much we gained in a calendar year.

Ashley's name on her stats page is "???" ?. What is Ashley's friendship?

No, it's Maria's actually, but I can see how you'd think that as I didn't specify who it was.

To reiterate, Maria's stat entry is not unlocked when she joins the hotel. Where her name should be a clickable link, it remains a "???" placeholder, and so her stats page cannot be reached.

Oh, a smaller issue I also found is that the BG music is quite soft even on maximum, but after leaving the bar for the first time, it 'resets' to normal.

Oh, I see the issue here. Thank you.

I also changed the BGM a little bit. Thanks for the reports!

 

[markus T]

Can't wait for this release...more importantly, hopefully you get all this bullshit sorted out with that d bag and patreon.

Just making a quick update on the issue, I just discovered that after going through Maria's first friendship scene and getting FS lvl 1, her stat entry unlocked, although yeah, if you got that fixed so it does so when she joins the hotel instead, that would be much better and less confusing.

 

[Avaron1974]

Runey can't you work around this patreon crap and simply put the game up on an actual store like STEAM?

I see House Party is doing incredibly well on Steam! Your game has plenty of content and far less bugs than that game!

To continue supporting yourself you can add new updates as paid DLC! The bigger the update the more it would cost? Your supporters would never refund your game! Please think about it.

Can't sell games made using Honey Select.

They allow people to use their assets on the basis that they don't sell them. Patreons a different kettle of fish but Steam would put him square into lawsuit territory.

Actually, there are games using Koikatsu's assets (An Illusion game) on steam for sale at like $3. But I've been told by fakku that would be a problem.

Even though I linked them to that game on steam, they still didn't really care too much. But I still don't want to risk it.

If Harem Hotel is available on Steam, I would definitely buy it because of Steam's regional pricing feature.

noname793, all saves all compatible.

I hoped for more Autumn and some Kate content before the end but I was still satisfied with the update...Can't wait for v7...the long wait...not so much

 

[Loutreeeeee]

Story content for the next version is still being worked on.
I'm not sure how much demand there is for a translated version, but it's a possibility.
A gallery isn't on my priority list, I'm not sure how many people would be interested in something like that, but it's not something too hard.

I m french and if you Runey need help i can translate it. I understood all the english text and well, i m a fan of this game and your work is so nice that i want all the french pervert who suck in english to play it. So send me a message if you are interested.
