As a harem game enjoyer, in my opinion if you feel that it would ruin your story then don't do it. That said there are a lot of harem games on this site, some of them are really good and some of them are shallower than a cup of water spilled on the floor. So there are references that you can find. What to do and what not to do.
Speaking as another harem enjoyer, I agree with this. Make the game you want to make. Sacrificing your creative vision to rework things for the sake of others generally results in a worse game imo (outside of reasonable changes ofc).

That being said, I'd also probably not play this if I ended up having to choose one girl and be stuck with that. I just don't like being limited in porn games usually, since odds are I'll like more than one love interest. But that's a result of my own preferences, and not something I'd expect you to alter your game for. I'm sane enough to decide a game just isn't for me lol.

If you feel like you genuinely want to add a harem route, great. Harem lovers rejoice. But it should be something you actually want to do since, you know, it's your game.

thanks you so much for the response. i am a beginner in Honey Select so i do not know every item you are referring to. what is "hooh Pogskin" and DHH?
If you have 8GB RAM or more, feel free to disregard my settings and use GraphicsMod. However, I'm running on 8GB RAM without a GPU(-2gb), and Windows 10 is consuming 40% of it. If you're in a similar situation with a low-end PC like mine, here are the character settings for you.

If you are making a vanilla game you should read this thread. It may help you

Thank you, I will read the whole thing later. :)

So, I've decided to include a harem path. What I want to do is just have fun with this VN and I want my characters to feel alive that's why I'm taking my time introducing the characters. I'm excited tbh but there's some anxiety in the mix.

thats also wat i want to know
For some reason, there's a harem route now. No NTR/Sharing.

That's too bad, I want to stay on one platform and focus solely on it. Managing this many sites is stressful for me. :(
Edit: Now that I think about it, people might be experiencing the same problem as you, so I've decided to create one. Sorry for my smooth brain.

i know you basically just decided on adding this but i am someone who likes harem games but dislike and lesbian/girl on girl content in male mc games so was curious if a harem path would be possible in your game without this kind of content

No lesbian content for LIs, maybe for side chars but everything is avoidable.

im getting trojan warning on pixeldrain link on window defender

I'm sure it's false positive.

I'm so so on the decision to make it a harem game. Most of the ones I've played have shitty unrealistic stories with cringy protags and bland girls. They ain't bad if you're mainly playin to jerk off, but I doubt many players get invested in them.

My story didn't change much, you can still pursue one love interest.

Now that's great news, plus I also read the sister's addition, I will definitely download and play it right away and good luck with this game, keep going and don't abandon it, regards DEV
