I'm not sure when is actually consider a harem, there are two official girlfriends and the rest aren't yet.
It's a harem when there are three girls, and they have to know about each other else it's not a harem, it's cheating. So far he's fucking more than three girls but they don't all know about each other yet.

There are games in the same case which have the harem tag. I guess it depends on how the mods are managing threads.

I have a question, this game doesn't have a harem tag, so there really isn't a harem?
Dev has stated that there will be a harem if so desired bur it's not in the game yet. MC is in the wooing/corrupting stages atm depending on your path.

Development showcase
Alright, as I said last week, this showcase is a mix of all kind of things.

Lets start things of with some teasers, although I don't have very many of those.

I pretty much only managed to finish the first variation for the morning scenes and a bit of the second, which isn't too little in terms of render count but still below what I can normally do in one week. The problem was that I probably overdid it a bit with this whole improvement business, as StudioNeo kept crashing while rendering. I'll probably get myself some bigger ram sticks next week and hope that that will solve the issue, otherwise I might have to tone it back down again, as rendering with constant crashes really is a pain in the buttocks.

But while where at it, here is a small comparison so you can see the actual improvements. All in all it pretty much boils down to up scaling which makes everything a sharper and some adjustments to the graphics preset to somewhat keep it with the old style of things. I think you can see the difference especially well if you pay attention to the hair.

You might have noticed over the last few development updates that I spend quite a bit of time tweaking and reworking things. Most of these changes are pretty small like changes to fingers, feet, position of eyes and other things that are not very noticeable. One thing I changes across the board however are the eye shaders, the biggest improvement being that they are a bit sharper and especially that they interact dynamically with lightning which should make the eyes look a bit more alive during animations. Here are just a few comparison shots.

c7548dc5-36fa-428b-8679-bcfc728145d7.jpg Another bigger change are the characters heights. These have been all over the place right from v0.1. I did already do quite a bit of tweaking over the course of the updates, especially increasing the height of some of the characters on the lower end, but it remained messy and inconsistent. Accordingly I did take the time bring all the characters heights in line. There are still noticeable height differences but things should look less weird now and I think a bit more “realistic” In any case, here is a updated height comparison for (I think) all characters that made an appearance.


Its been quite a while since Julia's character preview, where I not only showed off her model but also her husbands. Her husband however I remade completely for his appearance in v0.9. Here is a look at his new model.

And lastly, because I wasn't able to finish it for the last showcase, here are a few previews of the last map for v0.9.

f09326f3-c810-43b1-b261-6dc4c05da899.jpg Anyway, that's it for this months showcase. I'm not going to lie, it wasn't quite as much progress as I was hoping for, but I got kind of lost in the whole improving and tweaking business. That said, I do think that the visuals are approaching a stage where I can say that I'm very happy with them and don't see too much more room for further improvements. Now I just have to hope that 24gb of additional ram will actually fix the crashes.

Fr. Super trashy girl vibes imo.
maybe some people like that look:HideThePain:
I just hope the Author doesnt run into the endless perfection trap as so many do. I´m not following porn games for too long but seen it already several times. People remaking models or whole games, just for it to die in the process.

Dont get me wrong i like the changes but they are also pretty miniscule, call me stupid but i barely see the difference in this.
Also ms. clements tits look way smaller in the height comparison than usual.:WaitWhat:

Definitly dropping another months sub when the update comes out.

Thank you. This is precisely what I'm thinking. Perfectionism can ruin a great game.
According to some shit calculations I made up on the fly but should approximately be correct we might see:
v0.09 - mid may (at best)? (pd sunday)
v0.10 - mid august (at best, due to summer shit)? (pd monday)
v0.11 - mid november (also at best)? (pd tuesday)
... this is scary to me. Missis Clements date is on v0.13 (pd thursday), more than a year from now if nothing changes.

That's probably a quirk of Honey Select. It tends to make boobs look bigger with the clothes on, but the swimsuits in the preview are "skintight" and so don't have that issue.
It's also possible he reduced her size in all the tweaking he's doing, but I kinda doubt it.

I really like the change in the graphics, I noticed the lil' blurry thing on the faces and all that, the eyes were nice but could definitely have been better, seems fixed, now everything really pleases me. I'm excited for the next update. For some it's "minuscule" details but i'm quite sure quite a few people notices it easily. So it's always welcome to improve it

I agree. Those small changes might not be immediatly noticable, but they add up. And that's just how you improve in any skill. You try out different things until thing turn out even just slightly better. As long as he doesn't do something very annoying and go back to redo previous chapters, I don't see the issue.
I especially like the new eyes, they look really good.
