were new patch link?
Likely won't be posted until the more public version is out. Currently it's only alpha testers and I'd personally say it's not worth it. Upcoming one supposedly brings more audio content (which makes me ask where it was in the alpha test)

The RLD update is finally out for gold users, about time

Anything substantial this time?

EDIT: Nevermind. Curiosity got the better of me.

Judging from the last two years of patreon posts, has there been ANY new sex scenes? It seems like it's been nothing but bug fixes and audio stuff.

Want to drop a link to the build?
dunno if this will work for everyone, but here you go:

  1. 9:37 PM
    Here are all the links for HTH downloads. Remember that the Flash Archives are as final as they are going to get. It's become extremely difficult to edit Flash files with Adobe abandoning Flash. If you can't play at all, please contact us with the problems you're having so we can help. Everything from flash will move over to Unity. Thank you for waiting. Here are your links to download.
  2. Flash Archives: Flash Archive High Tail Hall Flash Archive - Version 1.0
  3. Red Light District Flash Archive - Version 1.1b
  4. High Tail Hall: Classic Flash Archive - Version 1.9.9
  5. Links updated: 8/16/2022 Unity Builds: New Cyana 0.1f3a [Windows 10]
  6. OLD High Tail Hall: New Cyana - Early Access - Version 0.1e [MacOS X - Mac OS Ventura Not Supported]
  7. Link Updated 10/31/2023 Red Light District 0.1c1 [Windows 10] Thank you and enjoy!

EDIT: Christ, I think all of the voice lines are AI generated as well. They feel extremely stiff.

To be completely fair, the fact he's using AI voice lines and not.... *checks notes*.... keeping pornstars that he likely never spoke to for years now on payroll anymore shows that he's at least maturing about his scope capabilities as a developer.

So, after the gracious sharing of the public build link and as one who previously paid for the alpha access of this early build... my god nothing has changed. I mean, i played the alpha for .1b4 and at least that fixed bugs when the public version came out.

Here though, for what Crow claims he bug-fixed the sound loop of dialogue it still happens with Crissy. Hell, the music in the video store is missing and the menu of dialogue for that STILL quits automatically if you're not quick to pick an option! No other ambient sound events as far as I can tell, no radios to find to hear those "hours of content" Crow wanted to hype up. And while the hotel is apparently glitched, he doesn't really fix or at least disables the entrance!?!?

I shouldn't be shocked at this, but for fuck sake, for nearly 2 1/2 months, any other DECENT GAME CREATOR would actually iron out these bugs and add in more of that big content they're so proud to announce! ...but that's not Crow. Even with help from another coder, he can't work fast enough, can't be upfront on development because he doesn't know what he's doing, and at this point can't deliver the vision. What the fuck are the mechanics for the cops supposed to be or work!?!? He's far more obsessed with diddling around with AI art on Discord, or messing on Discord in general, than delivering this project.

Recall also that Crow is still clinging to this project while he slowly chips away at Cyana. Not only is he doing projects that he isn't capable of completing on his own, and not only does he still have no plan for how he's going to complete them or when, but he's doing more than one at the same time.

This is a lot like any number of other indie game devs kicking around. They want to make games, maybe even have a real vision for something people could like, but they don't understand the means actually needed to accomplish anything.

I am encouraging ANYONE here to contact any great furry youtube video essayer to finally, once and for all, expose how much of a sham this entire project has been. Dig up as much research as possible on HTH's development, go around and find former employees (FOSSIL, Evie and LittleRedPanda too) to interview them. Encourage the essayer to give this video a name it deserves, like "The Other Yanderdev" or "The Worst Furry Game Project".


20 fucking years and Crowchild has never once delivered anything content complete. And I'm also guessing that fire (2003) and the bricked hard drive (2008) were outright lies as well.

Somebody is working with crow...sharing in a piece of his pie?
Willingly?
Indeed, one Ryan's Bizarre Adventure as mentioned on the discord. Though from what I'm able to understand, he's mostly there for cleanup on code...which considering on what I've heard on Crow's coding is probably taking a toll on his sanity a bit, even if he doesn't want to admit it.

Recall also that Crow is still clinging to this project while he slowly chips away at Cyana. Not only is he doing projects that he isn't capable of completing on his own... but he's doing more than one at the same time.
Yeah, I also don't think this helps either. It's baffling to hear that he's still trying to work on New Cyana while also trying to get the smaller project done. I don't think stopping on your current project to update the map size or water in your larger main one is really worth it at this time Crow!

Hell, I would at least understand if between working on the alpha and public release versions he got back into making merch or standalone art. I'm no artist but I doubt doing something like that once a week per month can at least provide something for your audience while they wait (and he's taken a long enough break from, what 2018-19 when he stopped?) He hasn't really posted anything new for dakimakuras (not even finishing a WIP for Shemyay if you dig deep enough), some products like wall scrolls have been taken down for not selling. FUCK, TheViewer has created more pieces recently with AI programs!

Do I even need to mention the Rio DVD? A project he announced as far back as 2007, took pre-orders for, has BRIEFLY revisited 3 years ago, and hasn't touched up on it since! All the more infuriating when he made a post regarding the Unity controversy and ended it with AND I FUCKING QUOTE "I do not give up on the things that I start." YOU SURE SEEM TO TAKE YOUR MARY FUCKING TIME WITH THEM!

I'm on board with this idea. It's ridiculous that Crow has basically done nothing from this last alpha to public build. I've got my own fair share of screenshots and info to contribute if needed.

As to the people, Fossil has...just disappeared. He's been offline for some time. To others, it really would depend on how friendly they are to talk about Crow. Evie still seems friendly enough with Crow based off of some comments a few years ago that I found. LittleRedPanda I don't know about but possibly is a start as is with Crow's old web programmer Zentio. Leilani could also work as they had a falling out some time ago. Droll3 could also be interesting. Though not an employee, they were an artist that did fan art but got in trouble with Crow. Might be worth hearing their side of the story.

As for the fire and hard drive, meh? I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt in the first case since it's been so many years at this point and it was the first incident. The hard drive is a bit sketchy, I will admit but also considering Crow's various posts in the past on updating/repairing his computer to keep alive, that's also not unlikely (but maybe goes to show how shitty he is at taking care of his stuff or optimizing work to not crash).

Dont think of this as an intrusive comment but ¿how old crowchild must be now after MANYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY years on this endless crusade game project called HTH Studios?

It must be amazing to live at this day and age with incoming monetary support on these deadass games that never are going to meet an actual full completion lmfao by doing totally nothing whatsoever while rolling back to old unfinished games just to implement AI for the giggles

So :) i know for fact the discord server it's one of their many defacto communication ways with their trusted circle, but i found it amazing most of the people being involved with him after many years may still around for whatever reasons you may think of.

Anyways I'm at my prime to assume he's going to amazingly keep on milking people until 2026 or until he does or gets called out for something despicable that may convey the so called cancel culture.

Oh yeah, they banned me from discord.
TheViewer said something about a celebrity I mentioned. He called me a fool. I got angry, and that 'gave him grounds' to lock me out of their discord.

Vindictive little shit.

Could you post your crow info repository here? This would help anyone wanting to contribute to this project

The whole Crowchild and HTH saga has taught me there are plenty of people out there who will give up their credit card numbers to patreon and smut websites that never get updated and they couldn't care less if these dead beat smut peddlers keep hitting their bank accounts.

Must be nice to have so much throwaway money you can blow it on long forgotten porn projects from 20 years ago and not give a fuck about the monthly billing.

Crowchild has more in common with those bums hanging out in the parking lot holding cardboard signs saying "Lost my job, got three kids, please donate money"

If and when I get moments of time, sure. I still might do a bit of digging and need to sort all of it out but I'll definitely get it uploaded when I can.
