2023-09-02 01:07:34 +0000 UTC View PostIt's time for the regular scheduled monthly update to House of Hellish Harlots.
August was a crazy month as I finally got the new version of HoHH with art up and running. However I still have about 60 harlots to transfer over and check nothing has broken with them. So, in the me...
2023-08-31 10:44:57 +0000 UTC View Post(Pt 1, covering the writing, is here.)
We're getting near the end of August, so I thought I'd drop part 2 of my mid-2023 roadmap for House of Hellish Harlots. The first concerned the writi...
ROOM 243: 3RD FLOOR (SADISTRIX WARDEN)
After the triple-locked door is another short staircase leading up to a large room with padded black rubber walls and filled with a variety of BDSM gear. There are also plenty of TV screens (magic equivalents of) depicting prison...
2023-08-28 00:40:42 +0000 UTC View PostAnd it was the last week of frenzied code-hacking.
I think it needed to be as well. I've been extremely focused on getting the core of House of Hellish Harlots 1.5 done over the past month or so, and it was just starting to get to me last week. I spotted I was starting ...
2023-08-27 11:40:15 +0000 UTC View PostAnd finally I have a proper playable demo of the updated version of House of Hellish Harlots!

ROOM 235: 3RD FLOOR (CAGE DOMME)
Standing in the middle of the corridor is a very unusual daemon. She is a very tall and slender dominatrix, wearing a massive bell-shaped dress of black latex. This is the second enemy type of this section – the CAGE DOMME

I converted another 13 harlots over, to give me a HoHH1.5 demo roster of 16 (3 per faction + Morticia Rose).
Each harlot takes about 2-5 hours to convert depending on how fiddly their original scenario was. The main issue is ...
2023-08-20 09:45:37 +0000 UTC View PostTime to take stock of where I'm at with House of Hellish Harlots. I figured I'd put a couple of roadmaps, one focusing on the writing side of things (which I'll be doing) and the other on plans for art and other assets (which I'll need to outsource and pay for).
First off wit...

The cell has another plinth at the back with an oversize key sitting on a cushion.
While there isn't a VINYL MAIDEN, or anything else suspicious, in the room, the player will probably suspect another trap.
And th...
2023-08-14 00:39:46 +0000 UTC View PostThis was another solid week of working on the new version of House of Hellish Harlots.
I hit a slight setback when I forgot one of Twine's quirks and made a change that doesn't work with how Twine handles objects.
If you're familiar with programming and objects, Twine has a quirk that...
2023-08-13 10:55:26 +0000 UTC View PostI'm a little late starting this zone as I've been very focused on the HoHH updates. I'll add extra rooms on some days until I'm caught back up again.
ROOM 219: GROUND FLOOR (CELL 04 – EMPTY)
This is just an empty cell.
The player can search it, ...

I put out the regular (test-only) monthly release of House of Hellish Harlots. v0.048 added the bratty 'teen' succubus, Brittnee, and you should be able to find it in a previous post or up on the House of Hellish Harlots website.
Then it was more coding and testing as I worked on the ...
2023-08-06 12:09:15 +0000 UTC View PostNo room number on this one as I realised it's repeating some general information from earlier.
I think I have a pretty good idea of how the zones could link up.
Zone 1 is the Intro Zone of the CRIPPLED SUCCUBUS brothel.
The game then opens up with Zones 2 to 5 (Warren, Waterfron...
2023-08-02 00:37:16 +0000 UTC View PostROOM 212: QUEEN SLIME
And finally, the real boss fight of the area.
The QUEEN SLIME will be overjoyed the player has made it this far. She is a gourmet eater and only likes to absorb the essence of the highest quality adventurers.

It's time for the regular monthly update to House of Hellish Harlots. This is another short release, adding just one new harlot, the bratty Brittnee.
I did consider adding the squidgy slime twins to this release, but I want to maintain a buffer of material for future months. Cur...

This was another week of coding and testing and adding graphics to House of Hellish Harlots.
The main focus was properly isolating a Harlots module and updating the 'Harlot Tester' I use for testing harlot scenarios. I had this set up previously, but using a test passage for each harl...

A lot of coding this week. I did a little bit of typing up and writing on the poison frog and forbidden smotherer harlot scenarios, but mostly focused upon updating the HoHH codebase to add graphics.
Work on this seems "hot" at the moment, so I'm going to keep focused on it while my p...

I've been busy working away on my twine codebase to make House of Hellish Harlots more resemble a typical indie game.
Because of the issues of getting mobile devices to load local images into a .html file, I'm putting the experimental demos up on the houseofhellishharlots website. You...

2023-07-12 10:55:51 +0000 UTC View PostFrom the recent posts, you'll see that I've been doing some experimentation with improving the look of HoHH.
I've been pleasantly surprised with how much you can actually do once you figure out how Twine works. This is still going to primarily be an interactive fiction game, but I'd l...

This one should be more responsive. i.e. It should still look okay at a variety of different screen widths and resolutions.
Unfortunately, this probably won't fix the main problem with mobile devices - images not loading because the .html file cannot find them even though the "images"...
