Instead of switching engines, he should take a moment to rethink his priorities and the scope of the game. He is trying to make HTH bigger than it needs to be when people would be fine with just a point-and-click like the game was on Flash. Unity can even be used to make it like that, or even Godot could do it and would probably work out better than Unity for this type of game.
The only thing sustaining it the gravy train, at least thats the only rational thing that makes sense to me. But I admit, I read Crow's comments and he often sounds like someone who completely believes his own lies. Maybe he really does believe hes making progress. That's even more depressing.
Like someone said above, most people were fine with point and click. Its a hentai game and he has (had?) skill with character design; lean into that with a simple game structure, dont try do... whatever the hell he is doing. I dont see why he dont just go to that again, hell if it was even just "interim" while he works on his Frankenstein's monster it would be the biggest actual product hes produced in over a decade. I find him absolutely fascinating, but not in a respectful way. More like in a lolcow "what on earth is happening here" way at this point because of how bizarre it all is

Benicio Hernandez and Garret Lehman in a point-n-click game are more interesting characters than every sprite whore held hostage on New Cyana combined.

Ironically, Crow's partner Tyvara claims to be a writer. She released some short stories on Internet. Although she lives of HTH doing essentially nothing, she never bothered writing a HTH lore neither any character dialog.
Honestly the whole story of HTH's 'development' feels like its full of irony, all at its expense. I mean hell look at how the pirating project y'all were doing arguably produced more actual product, just by smoothing over and resurrecting some content, than Crow did in nearly a decade. I think the only thing he's made is that ugly 3D unity map hes constantly talking about, in-between his monthly "I was ill so no work was done" post
heh, he was so full of making the world that he forget to put anything in it
Come on dude, the man gets migraines and needs to blow all the dough he makes on weed to alleviate his pain.
Leave Brittany Spears...Crow alone!
I feel like someone who is well versed in making TCs of Doom II in ZDoom could possibly port this (sprites, animations) into it and recreate the map, kinda like HDoom.
(I say this as a wishful thought, I have never tried to make anything in ZDoom before.)

Doom can be played on anything, no exceptions.
This seems to be a rule.
If Doom can run on Ecoli bacteria, then can it run on...HTH?
Ngl I'd love to see fan art of Garett just chilling with anon on the beach. Give these FBC characters the attention they deserve and completely stop giving the HTH cardboard cutouts any exposure
Shouldn't be hard to run Doom in HTH, HTH runs in Unity and people have already figured out how to do that, just need to mod it a bit.
Now the inverse is interesting because it requires the sprites, animations, music, map, etc. to be ripped and be turned into a WAD that can be run.
I'd love to try over the summer to do this, might need to watch a good few guides first though.
I'll be sure to and I'll post the WAD or a link to it. I just need to figure out how to make a map in ZDoom and how to rip the assets from the Unity version or either convert the flash SWFs into playable animations in ZDoom. Any resources would be appreciated, but I'll see what I can scrounge up in my free time.
guys look I got this rose sprite from the year 2011 more
Whoa, 2024 and I'm seeing HTH Again, insane. I remember playing this in a browser, can't wait to see what the "finished" version looks like
