Runey, are you using a specific (existing) lore for your worldbuilding, or are you pulling a Tolkien?

The game will be getting at minimum 13 main characters if I'm able to do everything I want. I don't know who those characters are yet, but they'll be coming. Maybe even after Lin, Kali, Ashley, and Maria's stories are completed (so I don't spread myself thin).

A new character is coming regardless, and this one has a good design and backstory. And potential for a good story in the future if I'm able to think of one.

Girls I add to HH seem to be broken in some way or another, hers is just physical.
Have to say that I fully like this direction. One of the first VNs I really got involved in was Katawa Shoujo, and there was always an interesting back story and progression for each of them. A broken girl is a gem in the rough...

You may be confusing Dark Elf with Drow. Ann is a Dark Elf (Dark skin color) Drows have light purple skin color and white hair.

Ashley is about 6% Dark Elf (You can see it in her eye color), one of her parents is 12.5% Dark Elf, so it's fairly reasonable to assume skin color would change at at least 25% (This is all fictional, I'm essentially creating my own rules, I'm not a biologist.)
I love all the thought you've put into this world. Out of curiosity any chance of us leaving the Hotel and exploring the world at large?

2 days left until the build is released. Finally I will be able to go back to play (and start a new save to be sure it won't corrupt anything). If I can, however, for the next update I will try to join the patreon :D

But...condoms are not 100%, and pulling out is not an effective method of birth control.

Condoms are about 85% effective - 15 out of 100 people using condoms as their only birth control will get pregnant.


The pullout method is about 78% effective - 22 out of 100 people using it as their only birth control will get pregnant.


Having regular sex with no birth control gives an 86% chance to get pregnant in a given year, given a 15% chance per month. It's statistically 15-25%; on the higher end if you have sex while the woman is ovulating, dropping down very low if you don't.


These numbers are on average over a large population, and no indication of what will happen in an individual case.
To be fair, half elves are generally forbidden anyway. I don't know if runey is referring to a much stronger rule/penalty, but yeah, the humans don't even recognize half elves, they have no rights if they are born, etc. Assholes wouldn't want to breed drow just because their children would be useless, and good people wouldn't want to doom their offspring, so it's just, they take care and abort if necessary. It's not that hard to parse. And obviously, since there are several girls in the hotel with pink/purple eyes, it's safe to say that the taboo isn't thaaat strict.

Since the discord has been going crazy over a girl in a wheelchair (partly fueled by me) I decided to make this chracter.

Whether or not she'll be in game, I don't know. I have no plans for her.
I love the design (and the glasses), but I'm really not into the drow backstory or disability angle. I would also caution against including a disabled character in a fashion where they're set up to be cared for and fetishized. Even if that isn't your specific intent here, that's probably going to be the perception. That's quite likely to attract a certain amount of antipathy from the disabled community.

Well, nobody from the LGBT community has knocked on my door about Maria. Someone from the discord who also has a problem with his legs was excited about the character.

This girl prefers doing things herself. She's trying to fight fate to walk, even if it is for half an hour. She needs to fight it, along with her medicine's aid. She doesn't like being picked up, but she finds an intimacy in it that she tries her best to ignore. She's already decided against a relationship.

She secretly despises her birth, not because she's disabled, but because she was never given a chance. Someone she never knew decided she would exist when they had sex with a drow. Someone decided to doom a man to 30 years of never seeing or walking before he died. It wasn't unfortunate, it was deliberate. And she doesn't want to do that to her child, so she doesn't want one.

Downloaded and playing this game...and it's awesome!!! Wished Lin was a little more well endowed, but she is beautiful nonetheless. I was instantly hooked seeing her. Kali is just plain awesome, well, not as awesome as Lin, but still awesome. Ashley, Ashley, Ashley...she reminds me quite frankly of a blond Asuna, with all the pluses and minuses that ensues. Android 18...er the Android rocks (betcha can guess what I named her lol). The twins were cool, and Autumn rocks. I enjoyed playing and learning all about the beautiful ladies. Please tell me that Ellen will have an expanded story like the other ladies do.

Then I got to the twins, and their level ten event...and I got fucking pissed off!!! PLEASE tell me we have the option of beating the unholy shit out of their worthless piece of crap that just happens to be their sperm donor they call a father!!! ANYONE who abuses a child or an animal, especially a little girl or a cat respectively deserves to be castrated with a dull, rusty, salt encrusted knife and then stitched up with barbed wire.

I think there's a line that can easily be crossed, but that because a line exists doesn't mean you shouldn't make the attempt. No representation is not good either. Fetish content isn't great, but at least it's not overall negative representation. I feel like developers like Runey can potentially help to alleviate a taboo where there shouldn't be one. Disabled girls need love too.

Totally cool. It was more of a heads-up since it sounded like she was going to be largely defined by her disability. This is a tricky area where there are a lot of complicated feelings.
