Can upload another link ? Mega always limit :(
Maybe pixeldrain
Looks like there's still work arounds for this.
.
I used to just reboot my router to get a new (dynamic) IP address.
I don't upload to other sites as it's painfully slow and often breaks during upload.

Mobile game but I can't find the android port download ..haizzz
Somebody help
The game has become too big to be compressed within the 2GB limit for APK's with a decent media quality, so there's no APK anymore.

BUT you can use Joiplay with the Ren'Py plugin to run any Ren'Py game for PC directly on Android.

You have to click the SPOILER button under the "Android Instructions" title on the first post, and follow the instruction.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT download Joiplay and Ren'py plugin from the Google Play store as stated in point 3, because such versions are really old and buggy, but download them from the links in the "Friendly Uploader Note" at the end of the instructions.

There's no point in first trying what we know it doesn't work and only after it crashes substitute them with the working ones.

IMHO point 3. of those instructions should be revised.

Uh... Wills, iirc has an apk download, you just have to have a separate apk and rpa file. Rpa file can be as big as you want (at least I'm unaware of a limit), that keeps the apk small enough for the new stupid android limit, then you move the rpa over to the game folder after the apk installs.

It most likely requires some coding on the part of the porter but their are plenty of "big" games that are ported to android this way, including harem Hotel.

I'm not saying it's impossibile to do a porting the way you are telling.
But there's no official Android port because it was too time consuming, and because installing Joiplay with the Ren'Py plugin makes ANY Ren'Py game for PC playable on Android without any supplementary coding effort.

So the official way to play on Android is Joiplay+Ren'Py plugin an using the PC game.

Anyone can play on Android immediately that way without waiting for someone to do the porting the way you are telling.

I don't know which is the advantage of doing additional coding to have a small APK wich gets data from a separate RPA file when you can use Joiplay as a single APK for all your games and as data you can link the folder of the PC release of the Ren'Py game.

Maybe there's a vantage that I don't get.

The advantage of using Joiplay is that it is available *now* without waiting for a good Samaritan to do the extra coding effort.

Personally I've just never had luck with joiplay. Where does joiplay store saves? Biggest reason I like ports us because they move the save out of android data, which means I can delete the game without losing my save. As android 12+ has annoyingly locked down that folder and when I've tried to move saves myself they never work.

Didn't realize you were referring to "official" as you didn't mention it in your post.

You meet them in Kali's story, they are her classmates in collage. Sounds like you got some shit out of order.

Never heard of birth control?

Pregnancy is too hard to do, unless it is mandatory and the game is linear, in a game like this, one pregnancy option would double the work for any scene they are in. 2 people with that option would mean 4 times the work. And so on, and so forth, increasing exponentially. Because of that, this and almost every other game like it, will not add pregnancy until the end. In this case, each girl will get that option near the end of her story.
I proberly forgot about them in kalis story, still the way they talk in hotsprings made them sound like virgins so was just a little disappointed since it feels like its been forever since there was one in game, couldent even remember hanna other then she was so shy and then a scene popped up that blew my mind as well, another one i was thinking virgin but yeah nooot really lol but loved that hanna scene though was great fun.

Birth controle would make sense in some cases but in ashleys who wants nothing else but getting pregnant? or felicty with a breeding fetish or Moon that says shes off the pill, so yeah that excuse dosent really work.

But i get it you dont want pregnancy in the game untill the end, not sure if it would really take that much more work, it could be made part of the storie with one or two like ashley or felicty, then the workload would be the same other then a few changes to the chars looks.

I am just tierd of only seeing it in epilogs in most games, insted of being part of the chars story line, and with so many girls in this game that could have easily been done, but its just my opinion and your right its extreemly rare to see a game that has it right, i think ive played one maybe two games that did it perfectly with morning sickness and everything, need to find that game again hah :)

If i ever learn how to create chars i would love to make a game my self but when you can only draw a stikman it feels like an impossible task, but maybe some day.

As it is, I assume, around the 99th time we have this coming up, I try to do it short.

For only Ashley and Felicity independently, you need up to 4 times the renders with Ashley and Felicity. For each on separately, you would need two times the renders (pregnant/non-pregnant), but if you have a scene with both of them in it, it will be four times the renders.

Generally, if all off them could get pregnant independently and not add anytime, the formula for the amount of renders, would be a power b, where a is the different renders/state of pregnancy/no-pregnancy (going from 2 to as many, as you want to have) and b is the number of charaters that could be pregnant in a scene.
So, for all the main girls, without our dear Android and only the minimal two variants: a = 2, b = 7, thus 2^7 = 128.

There have been several saves posted since the v17 update - you'll need to use the search feature and sort it by date.
How do I do that. What I was doing was ctrl f every page but gave up pretty quickly because it seemed way too monotonous.

edit: nvm figured it out thanks anyway

Not supprised that it comes up alot, its a thing that is missing in so many games.

And why would you need no-pregnancy path if its part of lets say ashleys or felicity story line or who ever even moon?
i am not talking about making it an optional pregnancy which would take alot more work as you say, take ciri she got a "kid" as part of her story line, atleast the 3 chars i talk about has already talked alot about it, moon not on pills, felicity breeding fetish, ashley couldent want it more, so just supprised none of them would get pregnant again as a main story line not optional and not just as part of a short epilog at the very end.

One of the main advantages with RPA packs is you can release update apks that are a fraction of the size of the full game(containing the code and only new media) reducing the need to download a large file until through future updates the apk hits the 2Gb limit again. At that point it's possible to create a new RPA file to compliment the first and so on and so on...

As I think, most times it is done this way. And for why lot of other content, generally speaking, is optional too. If it is not optional, I think, they would be as many, who complain about it as who would like it.

Yes you will never be able to make eveyone happy, but i dont think having one or two in a game with so many girls would hurt the game just make it more complete, having chars like ashley talking like she does and nothing happens just feels a bit worng to me, and game is huge so i feel like there should be room for it, if not with a main char then atleast with a sidekick which could make a nice story, but thats of course my view on it.

i still love this game though, size alone is so nice to see compared to others.

So I'm at the end of the game, so Kali is graduated from college and I had not choice in even playing the event to send her, it just played. Am I SOL on the nudes from the pizza place and college for her?

More work for the dev with pregnant characters in earlier parts of the game.
More work, because they are creating pregnant and non pregnant images.
More work then means less story content for people who are not looking for pregnancy.
Less story content per release, means that the story takes longer to complete.

Pregnancy options always make much more sense in story driven games like Harem Hotel, when they come at the end of the game, when the story is winding down..

I was going to comment, but basically this. You're talking about having to re-render every scene in which they can be possibly pregnant, just for a "chance" the player went for it or didn't. It's not like a 2d game where it's just 1-2 static images and done, so it goes from 2-4 image to 4-8. That's on top of all story events that would require a quick gloss over to make sure it fits the story. You don't even see it a ton in 2d animated games unless it's that Live Animation, which... I would question even counts since it's generally the same image barely moving.

If the dev is making a 3d game in the same vein as a 2d one, then it's easier since it goes back to just a handful of images vs dozen to make an animation work. And that's not counting if there's any clothing involved that would need to change.

Yes, that's an advantage over porting all the game in a single APK, but it doesn't seem an advantage over using the PC release with Joiplay: if you want to release update packages, you can release them (an it has been done with Harem Hotel for the patch from v0.16+ to v0.17.2 for PC) and they are good both for PC and Android without any additional coding effort.

I have no problems with Joiplay+Ren'Py plug-in providing that I'm NOT using the versions available on the PlayStore (which are old and buggy), but the latest versions downloaded from the Patreon page of Joiplay.

I repeat: I'm not against the APK+RPA porting, but someone has got to do it , while Joiplay is available right now .

If someone does the APK+RPA porting, I'm willing to test it and see by myself if it's better than using Joiplay or not, but until that day we can either not play HH on Android or using Joiplay.

That makes no sense, it would mean more story content not less and it could be put in at any time doing the hole game as long as its not an optional pregnancy it wouldent be that much more work if its part of a main stoy line for one of the chars it would just be a few changes to make the char look pregnant, they wouldent need to make none prenant images, could do it with a char like moon which is just a sidekick and if someone hates the idea then dont play the story of that sidekick.

Thats why i said it shouldent be optional pregnancy but part of a story with one of the girls, then it would carry over to any future images needed in group events as well and wouldent change the workload that much.

The game creator Runey had a planned out story for Harem Hotel.
Freeing the elves.
The story has been building towards that goal since it started.
Pregnancy content would take away from Runey's efforts to create that content.

Pregnancy content is not just showing someone with a pregnant belly.
It is an ever expanding work as we have seen demonstrated with Androids child Allie.
Only with Allie, there was not months of pregnancy story to tell.
Allie came into existence in one release.

Allie has a huge role coming in the battle against slavery.

Anyone else having a child, would strictly be about them having a child.
It would contribute nothing more than them having a child and raising it.
It would not advance the story, for which the game Harem Hotel exists.
Freeing the Elves.

It would not be just pregnancy content, but also child raising content that will have to increase with time, like dominoes.
It would be side content, that does not advance the main story for which Harem Hotel exists.
Freeing the elves.
And as such, it would drag out the length of time in which Harem Hotel is being created.

Because it will take up Runey's time and effort to create that content, for a niche group of players.
When he could just as easily add that content to the end of the game, and finish the game sooner, by waiting till the end to do it.

The currently seen side content we can already see has an actual point for existing, and advancing the main story of Harem Hotel, because we are making contacts who will be able to assist us in that goal.
Pregnancy content would be just that, pregnancy and child raising content.
It would not advance the main story at all, but rather, act as an anchor and slow down a game that has already been in development for five years.

Harem Hotel is already a massive game that has had some players step away from it, because of the massive download size.
Adding on pregnancy content would increase the size of the game even more, without adding anything at all to the actual story of the game.
Freeing the elves.
It would be adding even more fluff to a game that is already extra, extra fluffy, and for some people, very hard to download.
Without having any side content that does not lead to the goal of freeing the slaves, or building character personalities.
In fact, Harem Hotel has to already be one of the largest file size games of it's kind on this site, if not "the" largest.
And compressing it even more is not a good idea, because it causes serious issues with image quality.
Uncompressed the game is over 100Gb's in size, so it is already compressed to 1/10th of its original size.

As for Ashley's pregnancy desires: You have to remember, that she is part elf, and it was already established that elves do not easily become pregnant.
Lin for example is 300 years old, and has never mentioned having any children, nor have any of the other elves in the game.
Maria is half elf, so the same would apply for her.
Easy pregnancy for them with their long lives, would very quickly lead to an issue of over population, so being harder to get pregnant makes perfect sense.
And the fact that the game has been in development for five years has nothing to do with actual time in the game.
The game time can be counted in months, not years.
The others have not mentioned birth control, but that does not mean that some of them are not on the pill.
