Re: Harem, English RPG game. v2c4m0.3 released 5/29/16

When talking the first time to Nicole& priest substitute the character protrait changes to the old one.
Same: the cave of the goblin in the quest where a villiage got burnt down. (+the rest of the quest)

In the westland village with joan, top left corner guy: has a "/" at the end of the text.
In the bot right corner there is a half floating tree.
Thanks! Have all of those corrected for 4m1.

Re: Harem, RPG game. v2c4m0.3 released 5/29/16 (English, Free)

Testing is finished on v2c4m1 and I'm glad to send it out to my Patrons! Their support is why we're on a monthly release cycle instead of biannual so a huge thanks to them! Public release for 4m1 will be on the 24th.

Content Additions:
-Noemi has escaped from prison after the events in Lesser Corsix, and certainly is looking for you as much as you are looking for her!
-While Lesser Corsix have been saved from the Tu'Than, the city is still in dire straits! Isn't there someone in town that can help rebuild?
-The mysterious Naitay and the Cheli in the Westlands also have an interest in Noemi.
-The old inn in Eowen may have a more profitable purpose if you can convince it's owner to give up his old ways!
-After defeating the Orcs in the Westlands, Joan can start providing resources and open the forest to you.
-Hearing of Sarah's 'relaxing' trip to the resort, Samantha wants to take a break as well.
-Multiple scenes for Noemi and Terra as well as an additional scene for Rhea, Alena and Phoebe. 15 new scenes in the main game and 2 more exclusive to $25+ patrons!
-195 new images
-~230 pages of new text

Bugs fixes and Modifications
-Many images resized and recentered.
-Many small improvements on image cycling to make events flow smoother
-Alena had been set to attack at 150% faster than normal, where it was intended to be 50% faster. Corrected.
-Many Sprite swaps fixed

It looks like I was one of the creators chosen to beta the new option to charge when someone pledges on Patreon, rather than waiting for the 1st of the month. The huge benefit to that is near instant gratification. As soon as your payment gets processed you'll get access to the tier rewards instead of having to wait. Hopefully this will also eliminate the 'I pledged, where's my rewards' messages as well!

4m2 is coming along very well. I have the main arc 95% written, 100% coded and imaged. Once the proofs on the writing get down I can get that finalized. Will have a lot of other things to do as well. An old placeholder character's getting a full backstory and questline this time around, Fiona will be capturable (although it will not be cheap) as well as the Brothel opening up with some limited content for it. Hiro's sidequest is also sounding very cool.

Although yesterday was one of those days that seemed like every time I got to work something came up to distract me. Ralph understands....

Alright, the code is all in place for the brothel and I like it's implementation far better than in version 1. Should be a bit more interactive and obvious without the level demands of before. Your whores will get a customer wave every 5 battles. There will be another handful of scenes for it. You'll have to convince Samantha/Noemi if you want them to whore (3 scenes total) and there will be a handful of small whoring scenes in 4m2. Noemi, Phoebe and Naitay will all get one. Samantha and Terra most likely will. I might add in a few more. They'll be 2-3 pages scenes instead of the 6-10 page length of most full scenes, 2-3 images instead of 7-12.

But it needs a name!
What I've done is create an option to select between two different names. I'm going to use the suggestions from Patrons but have two different polls, one Patron one public and those will be the two options for your brothel's name.

v2c4m2 is firming up, with the vast majority written and mostly coded/imaged. Not enough to pin down a release date beyond July but enough to tell you all what's coming!

v2c4m2
Content Additions
-There is yet another barrier blocking your path to remove it. You'll have to find a way to strengthen Terra to get past it.
-In doing so, you will capture another slave, one with a mysterious past that she has had taken from her. Unlocking it will grant her great power, but at great risk.
-A new questline from the Celeean Swords and a new slave to add to your harem.
-Fiona will have another quest for you, and her arrogance and greed could make her vulnerable to ones whose pockets are deep enough.
-The repairs on your brothel have finally been completed, letting you open it for business. Some slaves may require 'convincing' in order to serve there.
-Scenes for Phoebe/Noemi, Terra, Kathleen, Fiona and Cindy, plus a handful of brothel scenes.

I have a bunch of teasers ready.

Re: Harem, RPG game. v2c4m0.3 released 5/29/16 (English, Free)

When I went onto Patreon and switched to monthly releases, I decided to switch between major releases (main storyline progression) and minor releases (side quests and non-plot slaves). This was mostly done as I knew I couldn’t do a major every month and the minors gave me a chance to keep new content coming while simultaneously giving me the time to rewrite/code the old content.

Generally, we’ve been doing a major followed by two minors over time. Initially, this was done to buy me time more than anything else. As I’ve been developing the minor quests, something interesting happened. I found that I really enjoyed adding some breadth to the world. Exploring new territories, learning about the history of the world and getting to know the existing cast better. And of course, finding and enslaving new women.

As we go into Chapter 5 we’re going to be hitting an on-rails section. Some fairly big things will be happening with the plot and to make sure that flows properly and makes sense, I have to control the pacing. Once we hit that, we’re probably going to be looking at roughly 4 months of on-rails as we go through two months of Corsix and then 2 months dealing with the aftermath of what happens there. While there will be some new content there (Kathleen/Fiona mostly) most of it will be retreads of v1 content. And you won’t get back to Celee for months.

So the question is: Where to go next? I want to know what you all think. Would you enjoy starting the on-rails section, knowing that it’s going to last a few months, or should there be a 4m3 and explore some of the new content more? I definitely have more stories to tell about Fiona, Naitay, and Joan that really won’t get told for quite a while without a 4m3.

I want your feedback. Where you want to see Harem go? Your feedback will decide this. But just to be upfront, unless feedback is definitely in one direction or another, it will be decided by a Patreon-only poll.

Re: Harem, RPG game. v2c4m1.4 released 6/28/16 (English, Free)

Just released v2c4m2 to my $5+ Patrons today! Let me know what you think of it, I think it's very cool! Definitely the largest and most complex minor release I've ever done. Nearly 300 pages of new text and images with some of the most intricate coding that I've done to date. Public release will be on 7/29!

And just a reminder to everyone. I'm one of the content creators testing the new pay at pledge option. So if it sounds interesting, go to and pledge at least $5 to support the development of Harem. And as soon as your payment goes through, look at the other posts I made today for the download links!

-19 new scenes added to main game. 5 brothel scenes in addition. 2 new NC scenes, one open to all!

Bug Fixes/Modifications
-Quite a few modifications to characters behind the scenes for future content. This does require a full character reset.
-Brothel sequence cannot be started until after you've captured Angelica
-Allowing for a 12 character name for the main character. This may cause text clip issues, go beyond 6 with caution. You must use the main character rename option in system menu to enable this.
-Hearthstone will only show you places you've already visited
-Character Bios added
-Significantly more hints toward where quests are

A fyi to everyone! Patreon and Paypal (Braintree) have worked out a deal allowing Paypal being used to support and donate development of adult content. So if you've ever wanted to support Harem's development but wanted to use Paypal, swing on over to the Harem Patreon page and there should be options to do so. I don't personally know how it works, but one of the reasons why I love working with Patreon is their ability to simplify the income side of indy development.

Re: Harem, RPG game. v2c4m1.4 released 6/28/16 (English, Free)

So a bit of personal info. During the end of the 4m2 dev cycle I put in a string of 14+ hour days trying to get everything working right and an early July release. Unfortunately I got myself sick in the process and had to take a light week afterwards to recuperate. My own contribution to 4m3 will be a bit smaller as a result, but Hunter769 has decided to join the quest writing team and his ideas a pretty cool! Between him and Hiro's work 4m3 should still be a decent sized update.

This is a preliminary change log, please don't view these as locked yet!
-The end of Kathleen's sequence may have resolved her past, but it was a bit of a cliff-hanger for the rest of Celee. You'll have to work with the Celeean Swords to address this new threat and change your relationship with them fundamentally in the process.
-You control both of the human groups in the Westlands, but the peace between them is shaky at best. You'll need to unify your followers before going further into this new land.
-Hiro is further expanding Heather, and she'll function as a quest hub inside of your Castra for those who have taken the time to capture her.
-Hunter769 is working on creating unique items for every character in the game gained through a quest series. Because Terra and Donna won the poll (I'm calling it a tie) they'll be the first two to get quests for their unique gear.
-As Terra actually won the poll, she'll be getting a set of scenes in 4m3.
-Sarah will also be getting a unique item. If we can get the scripts working right you'll be able to upgrade the unique items to keep them always relevant to the characters. If not I can do it through events, but it would be far clunkier.
-Additional Brothel content.

I'm closing the 4m3 additional content poll as of now and creating the September development poll. Is it time for you to go deeper into Rata and progress the main plot or would you all like to spend more time in Celee. 4m3 will wrap up most of the macro events going on in Celee, 4m4 would expand on the unique item idea to hopefully every Celeean-born slave. I'd probably try to sneak in some additional Vanessa and maybe Jessica content as well if we stick around for longer.

As usual, to participate in the poll you must be a supporter of Harem at the $2+ level at least, but you're free to comment here if you wish!

Terra had won the Patreon vote to get a bonus scene in the 4m3 content and I just imaged it today. Another one of your harem decided to help out her 'going away party', although you'll have to wait for release to see who it was!

More 4m3 teasers! Terra gets both a scene set and a quest from the poll. And the quest to unify the Westlands might be a bit complicated...

Is this a temporary leave or a permanent one?

Re: Harem, RPG game. v2c4m1.4 released 6/28/16 (English, Free)

Such an old project....

But I'm not here to talk nostalgia, I'm just here to post my early thoughts on the game:

1. Combat is (pretty much) stripped out of the game. Easily the best thing about version 2.

2. The graphics are obviously dated (god, were those 3D models made for the PS1?), but one step at a time I guess.

3. The writing is very eh, but I'm still early in the game so I'll chalk that up to version 1 recycled content.

All leaves will be temporary. Not taking away slaves for good at any point.

1. Heavy combat will be sidequest only. Main plot will be light on it.
2. I actually prefer 3dcg to more modern modelers. Most of them are so far into the uncanny valley I can't play 'em.
3. Where could the writing be improved? How far in are you?
