Update 23rd May '21
🕑 Added 2021-05-23 23:05:06 +0000 UTCProgress on new harlots is still ticking along.
On the maintenance side, I added two new charms and updated Cibi Somnia.
The new charms are an anti-sleep charm and a charm that should have amusing interactions with vamps.
Cibi got her update to interact with relevant charms. I also noticed there was a path where the player could ejaculate despite being emptied, so I added a little passage to cover for that scenario. Also, for when the new version comes out, anti-sleep does not mean total protection. Even with the charm, the player will still fall asleep under certain circumstances. This will be true of all the protective charms - they will make up for deficiencies in stats for certain checks, but the harlot can still Bad End the player if determined enough (as already seen with Broinn Muchadh and her interaction with the anti-smother charm).
As for new harlots.
Acarina (the one with Vampiric Boobies) is pretty much implemented and just needs final testing.
Sammy (bouncy redhead succubus) has just over 2K words typed up (about 40-50%).
The 3rd harlot is still currently to be decided. I wanted to limit myself to 3 this month so that would give me spare time to start other harlots off and have them in progress to carry over to June, as I think my productivity for HoHH is highest when I have 1st drafts, typing up and implementation all on the go at the same time.
I dug up the old harlots that were left half-finished and got them back in order. With the new ones, I currently have these harlots in progress:
Dancing Lamia
Calliophi's sister and originally supposed to be part of the sexy snek release.
Mindflayer Girl
I wrote her intro and had fun with a particularly gruesome horror end.
Black "Symbiote"
I think someone suggested this in comments as one of the Doctoress's artificial beings. She's an artificial slime girl that gets the player to 'wear' her.
Executrix Boob Smotherer
She was inspired by the boob smother youkai from 62Studio's Lust Grimm series. Then shifted around a lot. It's a more straightforward and deadly version of Suffocatrix Mamilla's scenario.
Hand Smother Succubus
Another one from when I was brainstorming a faction/clan/group based around various erotic smother techniques. She likes roleplaying as a sexy femme fatale spy in tight leather. She's still a lust daemon, so has a few hidden 'techniques'.
Glass mannequin doll with 'dick bag'
Another of the Doctoress's artificial girls. This is a glass doll dressed as a ballet dancer. She also swears like a sailor and has a special artificial vagina and 'dick bag' that can do very special things to a penis.
Bliss Slug/Slime
A weird one as part of the sensuality group. Her lower half is like a slug or lamia made of slime. In this case it's more like cream or lather. She wraps her body around a man and her cream causes complete sensual bliss on skin contact.
All seven are in varying degrees of progress. The 3rd will be whichever one gets finished by the end of next week.
It is the last week of May, so I will need to get a move on to have 3 new harlots ready by the end of the month.
As always, thanks for your interest and support.

Many-Eyed Hydra
I'm not sure of her exact name as it varies depending on the translation, but Boobs Youkai/Busty Phantom is one of my favourites from that series. She's very single-minded in her desire to use her boobs to smother the hero to death/unconsciousness (the latter really, despite her talk), which makes her stand out a little from the other succs. She also dodges the hold mechanic exploit in Succubus Puttel. You want the succubi to put you in a hold in that game as it means you can just activate the relevant guard move and take them down while only taking scratch damage. If you try that with Busty Phantom, the hero passes out after a few rounds and auto-loses. I wish 62studio had added a few more mechanics like that, but they tend to fall on the "get the games out quick" side of the spectrum (but not as bad as Dieselmine). I'm still trying to pin down the character for my take on it. She's a little creepier than Mamilla. It's also a very straightforward scenario - if you don't have the right charm, you suffocate to death and that's all there is to it.

I had to check out the Lust grimm series after reading about the boob smother executrix inspiration, and holy!$#%. Yes, please. Focusing abit more on the actual suffocating sounds like an exciting idea IMO

It's not exactly what you are looking for but you can always open the .html in your text editor of choice - all the raw text is in there but so is the code, so in some places it's not exactly immersive I understand the inclination to skip right to the good stuff but the secrets are more satisfying when you do have to work to get them. Delayed gratification and all that... Unless my memory is addled, earlier versions did have a placeholder for a "Gallery" mode when talking to the Madam but that isn't there anymore - maybe it's been removed from the future roadmap
Thoughts on a "cheat mode"? Or maybe patreon-only access to just the raw text files of the harlots? Sometimes I'm in the mood to play, sometimes I really just wanna read just entries for one harlot without playing the game a whole lot. Edit: Plus I'm not great at the whole "finding secrets" thing, and I really do just wanna read the h scenes lol
Many-Eyed Hydra
She's a little different to that. I do like the soapland slime girls in that game though (although "game" is more accurate - c'mon Dieselmine, at least pair those lovely animated scenes up with some proper gameplay!). A group of soapy slime girls would fit very well for HoHH, I think.
Many-Eyed Hydra
She's different. She was supposed to be the flipside of another harlot mechanically, then I had an idea for what that could be that took her in a different direction. She's another harlot with a strong potential for repeated visits and a proper quest line. I'll be curious to see how people respond to her as she is different.
Somehow cream and lather reminds me of the Foam/Soap girls in the bathroom from one of Dieselmine's latest games

Glad to hear the winds of progress are blowing favourably for you at the moment, enjoy them to the full! I'm very intrigued by what you've said about Sammy so far. Naturally you will not want to give much away but can you say anything about her evolution? Was she always intended as a special harlot or did you get an idea later that you just wanted to assign to an existing placeholder?
and if you do manage to change it in the future, I think it could also be applied to some other girls in the case they are in an angry mood with the player....for example when you pick Sgriosar Balgan-Buachair or Panta Prota, if you have not selected Panta the first turn, and you select her later...in both cases they would be angry at the player, right? So it would not be "in character" for them to smile at the player if they are picked at that point (unless they fake the smile, of course, and/or they try to repress their rage...but being a young succubus I don't think Panta is so much malicious in her behaviour, actually..). In any case the fact that they don't smile could be used as a warning signal for the players that the harlot is angry with them, and that they have made a bad choice picking them, and to prepare themselves for a gruesome but likely tasty and pleasurable death :D
Talking about maintenance, I know about a little detail maybe you could fix...or change...it's certainly not a bug, nor a priority, but still it could "break immersion" for some of the more pedantic players like me :P when you select a girl, there's a line in the text saying: "You selected [name of the harlot]. She SMILES at you and exits the stage..." BUT, in the case of some harlots, like Asphya or Couchelaxa (and I assume more like them in the future), I don't think the protagonist would be able to see them smiling since their faces are mostly covered by masks...maybe with Asphya you could tell from her eyes, although it would still be quite difficult, but definitely not with Couchelaxa...as I said it's not a priority at all, but could you be able to change that line in the case of harlots that have their faces covered by masks or something else in the (far) future or it's too much of a hassle and not worth it?
