Update - 29th Nov '20
🕑 Added 2020-11-29 23:25:01 +0000 UTCVer0.013 of House of Hellish Harlots is not far away.
I did have a slight unpleasant surprise when I caught up with the Sorpresa Ombra scenario and realised that while I'd implemented all the text, I'd not implemented her Bad End checks or scoring. I rectified that and then tested the scenario to make sure everything is fine.
Also, it's always a good sign when you come back to code after working on something else for a couple of months and still find everything is legible.
Sorpresa Ombra (boob smother lamia) is now ready.
The other two harlots now have names. Zuripai Suponji is the big paizuri succubus and Cibi Somnia is the sheep girl.
Zuripai's scenario is typed up and implemented. It just needs testing.
Cibi's scenario is typed up aside from the Elegant Woman and Portly Gentleman's segments. I still need to implement it and test.
I also finished off the 1st draft of the [name] the Corruptress's (anal-themed succubus) scenario and started a new one featuring a caterpillar/grub girl.
I'm hoping to get Cibi's scenario implemented and tested tomorrow. There is an outside chance ver0.013 will be posted before we flip over to December, but as that relies on everything going perfectly tomorrow, it's more realistic that it won't be ready until Tuesday or Wednesday. I will try my best, though.
Look out for three new harlots to enter the House sometime next week!
As always, your support is much appreciated.

For typos and bugs I missed on the first pass, I'm hoping people will spot them and then I'll go back and fix them as they're pointed out. The narrative issues are slightly harder as there is a question of how much complexity can be added before the project becomes unmanageable. It would have definitely made my life much easier and sped things along if I'd made the harlot not remember the player on repeat visits, or had the Bad End request item do nothing but fail tests the player would have otherwise passed. On the other hand, implementing that does make for a richer experience and open up narratives with specific harlots over the course of the game. At the moment, I'm concentrating on getting the base scenarios and NPCs in place, so I can put out a fully working prototype. After that I'll start returning to some of the harlots and expanding their scenarios with repeat visits and maybe quest lines. I'm not sure yet whether all narrative quirks are possible to fix. If it requires rewrites across all the scenarios for a tiny immersion gain, it probably isn't worth it. As with all things, there are trade offs.

Is there currently a plan to go back to old harlot scenes and polish them up a bit? I mean fixing stuff like typos or other narrative issues that came about after adding new features. For example, there's currently a way to die by Panta Prota while still technically being a virgin, simply by refusing her in favor of a harlot whose scenario can be bypassed without losing semen(Suka, Sapoonis, Couchalexa, Calliophe, and Vete Paige can all be passed like this). Since she can apparently smell virginity, it would make sense for her to be able to tell she was still a first.

I'm eagerly looking forward to this. Didn't realize how much I missed all the new updates for HOHH.
