So it feels like the show. There will be special outfits for special occasions as required by the story, such as bikini's for the beach but for the most part I'll stick with the outfits from the show.I also considered changing all of the colors slightl...

Update on KH
After releasing the Into the Woods teaser, I've come to realize that my drawing skills are not yet good enough to make that game successful.So I will be doing the originally planned full story arc for Kingdom Harem. This will involve more lewd scenes with more characters, more locations, and more drama and will be satisfying to play through. On the side while I'm doing this I will be dedicating some time to learn the specific drawing skil...

Does v0.6.0 open without crashing?
I got two reports on the thread of people not being able to run the game without it closing without giving an error message immediately after opening (before the main menu).I'm trying to figure out if that's only specific hardware, or what's going on as renpy games are suppose to be able to run the same on everything. Anyways, knowing if this issue is for most people or something very specific to their computers will help me.
v0.6.0

v0.5
Content includes a new story for Mia's storyline (her first story). Approximately 20-30 minutes of additional content.PCMACANDROID
Sex Noises Poll
What is your opinion on the sex noises (girl(s) moaning + sex noises) for the sex scenes (Example: Meg + the Guard)?I had been getting ready to add them to the new scenes for the next update but I've been told some people don't like them in general.
Happy Hamburger Day!

Update + Android Poll
So... a few things. First, I've decided to not do weekly updates anymore but to continue releasing as quickly as I can release good content, which should be more than once a month. With every release, I will post what's new.If you do want to know what I'm working the best place to ask me would be the Spoilers section of the Discord. If you ask in the general section, I can try and give you a more general answer also.------------------...
WEEKLY STATUS UPDATE
I may discontinue weekly status updates if I'm able to continue releasing game updates at a more frequent schedule (more than once a month). It seems redundant, since I summarize what the new content is for each release. Let me know if you have strong feelings about this one way or another.COMPLETED: Worked on story +2 images (for v0.4) +2 new sounds +1 new song (found) Placed in sound effects & music(including existing sound effects + music)...

House Darkness Poll
Alright, I've got enough comments now on the house being dark to make it a worthy poll.Should I make the house less dark at night?Upsides: Easier to see More enjoyableDownsides: The light will look less natural. I could place in a bunch more lights, maybe spotlights in the windows and try and make them look like moonlight, to get light bouncing around the rooms and re-render. Rendering is slow... this could add possible around 3 more days bef...
