Unfortunately, I'm not going to make the end of the month with Slime Smother Nun. I'm still feeling under the weather, she's a problem scenario that's locking me up, so I took a few more days off to try and clear the block. Annoying, but I've had periods like this before, which are usually followed by periods of hyper-produc...
2025-07-31 12:59:04 +0000 UTC View PostAnother slow week unfortunately, not helped by me being under the weather and out of sorts for half of it. I think the Slime Smother Nun scenario is going to drag its feet all the way.
I'm hoping that the end of the month rapidly approaching will give me a prod to get it wrapped up, but there's also a real risk it wil...
The slime smother nun mini-boss scenario dragged its feet all the way, but I finally have the first draft written. Currently I'm in the process of typing it up, which I hope to get done by the end of next week. That is a little on the tentative side. With this I think I've run into the old problem of things being left on t...

Yeah, so like everyone else and their dog the last couple of weeks I got sucked into the hype around the horse girl game...
It's pretty good, but more "bring-your-daughter-to-sports-practise" than more overtly fanservice anime games (like Nikke). I do like to keep track of these gacha games for professional reasons as...
Whoops. This one is a day late as I thought I'd hit the end of the batch and then realised I'd forgotten Cibi.
Cibi Somnia is a tricky one. Outwardly she looks like a fairly sweet and harmless sheep girl. Look at her too long and you realise there is something very off about her. She's best described as an...
Work on the Slime Smother Nun is coming along nicely.
I felt I was flagging mid-week and started writing a short story as a change of gear. Rather than finishing it, it got me moving on the Slime Smother Nun again, which was what I was hoping for.
As for the Slime Smother Nun, I finished the first draft of her ...
Continuing with the art previews for the mid-tier independent harlots, here is the House's "mindflayer" girl N'gleria Sepiida.
She likes a nice big brain...
Art by marwmellow. N'gleria actually turned out more coquettish and seductive than she is in the scenario. Marwmellow suggested I write more tentacle girl...
I continued work on the Slime Smother Nun scenario. I finished the first draft of her hand smother sub-scenario and I'm currently in the middle of writing her boob smother sub-scenario. Progress is a little scratchier than I'd like. I still don't think I've quite nailed her character. But that's what 1st drafts are for. I'll ...

I'm slightly more organised at the moment, which means the art previews for the $1 tiers are back to weekly.
Continuing with the mid-tier independents, this week the preview is of the exotic jellyfish girl, Cyane.
Art is by marwmellow. I hope you like her. Let me know what you think down below.
A bits'n'pieces week with a few IRL disruptions to keep me from getting a good run on things.
On the plus side, I think I've sorted out my disorganisation over the art previews and harlot spotlights. Those should now be back to weekly until I've run through the stockpile.
If you'd like to "adopt-a-harlot" and c...
Still no full hell harlot profiles. I'll write the next batch of those when I start to add the mid-tier harlots to the art version of HoHH.
That would mean no art previews for quite a while, so I'll carry on with just the previews of the pin-ups.
This week is the exotic Burbalka leisurely lounging in her natura...
Impromptu break week.
The Lies of P DLC dropped unexpectedly and as it's probably my favourite game of the past couple of years I got sucked into that.
Then, just as I was done with that, I was called up for an archaic English tradition known as cricket, which took up all of Saturday.
As the usual penance...
Art preview for today is The Trapperess, who I might have already showed off. I did drop some out of sequence, so I can't remember. Anyway, this is where she would be as I'm currently showing off the Round 5 mini-bosses. (I also have art for the slime smother nun, but I'm going to wait until I've actually written her.)
...
This was a fairly productive week even if a lot of it was on tidying up duties.
Not all, thankfully, and I am happy to report I'm currently back on writing the slime smother nun scenario. I typed up some of her intro to pick the thread back up again and I'm currently in the middle of writing her Bad End sex scenario. ...
The art preview for today is the round 5 mini-boss for the artificial beings faction - Rwberia Godr-0-sgwid. She has a variety of specialised appendages for... ahem... extracting semen.
I think this is the first time showing her off to all paid tiers. ($5 and higher got to see her a few months ago as part of the Harl...
The weekly update post was kind of covered by the release post yesterday, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to post the updated roadmap for HoHH instead. The old one got knocked a little off course by all the recent work on HoHH1.5!
My main goal is to have proper working demo of the art version of HoHH th...
End of the month and I do have a release, of sorts.
The past couple of months working on the notebook functionality has made me conscious I'm trying to work 2 jobs simultaneously. 3 if you count QA testing. Ideally a project like this would separate the roles of writer and programmer, but it is what it is. I just ha...
Right, time to get the HoHH art previews back on schedule.
Here is the lovely Temptacia. I think Marwmellow completely nailed her overwhelming sexuality. She looks like she eats men for fun in the bedroom.
I'm going to try and get back to the same rough schedule as before, which is Harlot Spotlights (including...
This was pretty much a week of two halves.
The first half went really well. I think I'm now done with the bulk of the coding for the notebook features. I went back and updated Sapoonis, Asphya, and Bebi. That was fairly straightforward. They now have scoring and replay mode.
Overall, in contrast to the proof...
Nearly out of the code-hacking weeds... I hope!
Replay Mode has been implemented. The main difference from the proof-of-concept version is I wanted the replays to preserve the player stats used to unlock them, which would make them a sort of custom save for the player. Ironically, this is easier than the proof-of-con...
As I slowly drag myself out of the programming swamp, hopefully a return to a normal schedule.
This is the last of the NPC batch - The Doctoress.
She's a lot more weird and eccentric then the others. I still don't know what to do with her. I have a good idea what's going on with her faction and some surprises ...
Slow and careful pretty much summed up this week.
But before that, I've had a few responses to the Adopt-a-Harlot idea for commissioning spicier H-scene artwork (see previous post). Main wrinkle at the moment is sorting out a payment processor that is completely anonymous. I'm still trying to figure out how to do thi...
Last time I tried this the crowdfunding site Marwmellow used to get paid got taken down, which made it very difficult for anyone to commission him.
I've been meaning to try again, but the last month or so has been a grim slog through the code guts of HoHH, keeping me a little too busy.
So, let's try again...

Last week was better, but still mixed.
I thought I'd fixed some of the framework problems, only to get bogged down while updating the individual harlots. I did drop a release on the 1st, but I wasn't really happy with it.
The main goal of putting something - anything - out was to relieve some of the pressure I ...
Sort of.
This one is more for my benefit. The notebook clue framework for the harlots is pretty much close to done. It's still a bit fiddlier and time consuming to implement for each harlot than I'd like, but it is mostly giving the behaviour I want. I'm hoping it will get quicker as I apply it to more harlots and g...
As you might have gathered from previous posts, last week was a bit of a disaster.
Thankfully most of it seems to have resolved okay now.
The bug that caused everything to explode was a minor one. Just a sequencing error on start up that took longer to find and fix because I'd been trying to rush some harlot no...
This time it is bugs.
Thankfully, the IRL situation is mostly resolved with the family member being released okay from hospital.
Unfortunately, when I switched Morticia Rose back in this morning to test her (both her and the Clue-Test Dummy I use to test all the clue types share the same harlot ID of 0 in code),...
Not more bugs.
A family member needed a trip to the hospital so the chaos was more on the IRL side rather than programming. Nothing too serious, but I'll push back the update to Friday to give myself more chance to get it done and tested properly.
Apologies for the delay.
The last couple of weeks I've been struggling trying to get the harlot notebook code right.
What was causing me issues is I'd made a few design mistakes with the architecture, so every time I'd try and check some other clue type, I'd go to reuse existing code only to find out it was corrupting a variable for a subseque...
It was another week of intensive code-hacking.
I was hoping I'd have a sneaky little HoHH 1.5 release to put out here instead of the usual update post, but the clue framework is still refusing to settle down. I thought I had it, moved over to implement it with Asphya as a first test case, and then ran into a stat chec...
