What Next for House of Hellish Harlots
🕑 Added 2020-12-03 12:54:46 +0000 UTCThis was originally going to be "The 3 Next Things for House of Hellish Harlots". Then I remembered how much of mess I got into trying to force the sexy snek release through. So, I think it's better if I leave the updates to Things That Have Been Done, rather than announce some plans and then get into productivity difficulties when I get stuck and start panicking.
With that out of the way, here's a list of the features that still need to be added.
HIGH PRIORITY
Player Mindset Revamp.
Yep, I've realised having to set this before each room visit is annoying.
NPC - The Doctoress.
Mad scientist type. Sells the players potions to temporarily alter their stats.
NPC - The Charm Seller.
Witch type. Sells the player charms/sigils/runes that negate certain Harlot abilities (necessary to survive the harder ones) and also have other weird effects.
New Harlots.
Writing new harlot scenarios will be a constant thing. I want to make sure I always have a few on hand to release in clumps of 3-5 in between every games mechanic/new NPC release.
MEDIUM PRIORITY
Introduction.
How the player got into the House. Some choice on customising their attributes at the beginning of the game. Also remove the italicised text in the game loop and replace it with nice descriptive prose.
NPC - The Barman
A more reliable source of general hints and the NPC that introduces the player to all the other NPCs. He'll be the main source of lore, which I still haven't finalised.
More New Harlots.
I need about 30-40 to have the game run for a few rounds without needing placeholders.
LOW PRIORITY
General Chatter.
A tentative action where the player can learn hints of harlots by overhearing conversations in the bar. Undecided whether this will be in or not.
Post-Room Events.
Random events occurring in between rounds that may benefit or hinder the player, or offer excuses for more sexy content (strip shows in the bar, etc). Undecided whether this will be in or not, but I like the idea.
Not quite the post I was originally intending to make, but probably safer than saying "I'm going to work on X" and then find I would be better off doing Y instead. I will continue with the weekly updates and announce the new releases as they're done.

I'm not sure if anyone has asked about this yet, but I noticed you said a while back you wanted to keep the girls scenes shorter so that you could add more harlots per release. I can't speak for others, but personally I would rather have only 1 or 2 new harlots at a time but get alot more options during the (sexy time) to choose from during the scenes.

I couldn't agree more with the above comment. The big boob girls always keep me coming back! I think especially Oppa nees to make an appearance in the house :)

Chatter was more for the player overhearing hints from other patrons - such as "Don't fall asleep with the sheep girl". I was thinking of using the random events to cover seeing harlots outside of the introductions stage or their room. I'm also looking to create a few less-deadly harlots. The easiest tier should only kill the player if they're out of semen or have a 1 in the relevant stat. I'm currently brainstorming a friendly succubus harlot that won't kill the player at all. (I also have another slot pencilled in for a character that couldn't kill the player even if she wanted to, for reasons that become obvious once the player figures it out)

I think General Chatter would be a nice option because it adds to all the Harlots. Right now, they are basically killing machines hidden behind door number 1, 2 and 3. Seeing what they are like outside of their deadly persona would be a nice thing.

It was a good update, with some great new Harlots! The last couple of preceding versions had a slow down issue that made it tough to play on my android phone, but this one runs great. I'm pretty keen on more lore via the barman, I love your world-building. The booby succubi are my faves so I hope Oppa and the succubus from a sweet and deadly taste of milk join the queue to get in the house!
