I was thinking that with how Autumns church is, she needs to be taken to her church and bent over the alter.
I am thinking about something else that I would like to place on the altair of Gaius and all over the church's floor and everything in the church, but I don't know how many churches of Gaius are there, so I don't know how many laxatives I need to buy to hit every single one of them.

I'd love just a "content" patch that was just... existing things updated. Maybe some minor story beats for whatever related activity, but a focus on just the content that we have. New scenes, new whatever. I know story has been the focus for a while, but it was the extra stuff that originally pulled me in and it's kinda a bummer that nothing has been done with it in so long.
While I kind of agree, at times unlocking all the scenes and their variants can feel like a bit of a chore. I'm not saying we should have no expansion of the side scenes, but I think the main story advancement should take priority until the game is done. (That, and tossing some pregnancy scenes in there for fun.)

Not only that, but I can imagine at some point Runey is going to want to finish up the game and move on to something else. It's been what: five years now? While it's commendable they've been working on it this long, I can only imagine what they'll put out if they start fresh, and what a relief it'll be to have a new subject / concept.

Looking at Caribdis from Once In A Lifetime and Eternum, (amongst others) he seems to be making games also using Honey Select but something about the renders is definitely snazzier. Not only that, but moving to new concepts seems to be working for him from a burnout-avoidance standpoint. Getting there in a second game (if we ever finish Harem Hotel) and moving to a new concept / engine could be really nice.

Once again, not saying Runey should finish up, or is finishing, or is burned out, but I'd rather Runey keeps doing whatever it is that keeps Runey motivated / interested. If that's story scenes, that's what we'll take!

That is a slippery slope to get into.
I have seen devs who were doing well with regular updates, who started redoing old content, with little to no new content, and as time progressed they eventually rebooted the whole game and started from the very beginning.
And in a few cases, they restarted the game more than just once or twice.
It started to feel like the dev had lost their focus on what they wanted to happen in the game, and could no longer progress with it.
So, to keep it going, they stuck with just rebooting it, in the hopes that an idea would come to them.

We know that Runey has the games progression locked in, and has stayed on course, but too much looking at the past could break his focus on the goal.

Because it is a beta. That means that it is not finished, and still needs work.
It was against Runey's wishes that it got posted here, because Runey knew that it still had issues.
Regular posters in this thread have been warning people not to play the beta.
It is BROKEN, and the dev knew that before someone posted it here.

Runey knew about the bugs, which is why Runey does not ever post betas of Harem Hotel here.

People playing the beta are literally wasting their time, and potentially setting themselves up for future problems with broken saves, created while playing the beta.
I mean, what am i supposed to do when I'm returning after a long time and want to update but find ONLY the beta windows download link

I tried to do "something", it was not that hard. Changelog shows what the previous version is. Google came up with the Patreon page where there are downloads :unsure: If you couldn't do anything, then you didn't even try.

Wait until Runey releases it officially, like the rest of us are.
There are too many risks to playing a beta of Harem Hotel.
The saves you make, may not be compatible with later releases, and you may get glitches throughout the game.
Not worth the risk.

if you skim through the last dozen pages in here, you will see quite a few posts from people who did try the beta, and they are getting glitches.

And you know what else can make a everything better? Some cookies and candy from the alternative timeline where A11-Y will get a mouth, taste sensor and digestive system upgrades and they will become spoke-person for a company named "Lin and Android's Kitchen Candy and Cookies Factory®" and a mascot for their brand of products named "A11-Y's Favorite®".

Examples of "A11-Y's Favorite®" brand products:

"A11-Y's Favorite® Lin's Chocolate Chips Cookies®" (A11-Y Says®: "Perfect thing to eat when you are enjoying a cup of tea or coffee!".
"A11-Y's Favorite® Android's Spicy Chili Pepper Chocolate®" ("A11-Y Says®: "Spicy And Delicious!")
"A11-Y's Favorite® Ashley's Fruit Jelly®" ("A11-Y Says®: "Made With Real Fruit!")
"A11-Y's Favorite® Kali's Caramels®" (A11-Y Says®: "Soft and Tasty!")
"A11-Y's Favorite® MC's Mints®" (A11-Y Says®: "Makes your breath smell really nice!")
There are also "Maria's Dark Chocolate Mini Dildos filled with aphrodisiacs® - Only for adults and eat only one before the act, don't eat more than one in one day, if you will eat more than one, or if you will need more than one to get started, immediately call the doctor!" (A11-Y Says®: "Why are they shaped like those weird things in Miss Maria's closet? Why are they only for adults? Why can't I eat one? What is a dildo? What are aphrodisiacs?"), but these are not part of "A11-Y's Favorite®" brand.


i want to rip another fairy's wings off... so.... when's the next update? XD
A11-Y Says®: "I am not angry, I am just dissapointed and sad. Also, aunt Ashley wants to know your location."

The pre-release (Harem Hotel v0.18 Pre-Release 1.1) was on August 14th, so the public version is supposed to be on 26th of August.
It will be released when Runey says that it is going to be released.
Until Runey says when it will be released, we do not know when it will be released.
This thread has too many trolls that have been attacking it, to take guesses with release dates.

It's not a guess, on his patreon the first tier that gets the pre-release is the Lover tier which gets: Access to each update 12 days before the public! (Pre-Release Builds), now if we do the math: the pre-relase was on the 14th so 14 + 12 = 26, thus 26th of August. Since the release is already out and only a question of being accessible to lower tiers it's only a question of time.
