Just saw a YouTube review for Episode 10, yet us Itch purchaser are still waiting! And he said Episode 10 was quite short! So A) when will we get it, and B) hot short will it be, after waiting a year?!
Thanks for the info, but one year+ (it's the 17th June and no EP10 for Itch customers!) per update, and it's obvious this game will never be finished. So I will check back in a year....!
This game is very good i liked and enjoyed chapter 10 very much its very well written and to those people who complain abt no sex scenes you guys dont know how to play the game. Great job i like this game and will continue to follow and support its creator
Since Episode 9 you guys totally messed up the story I tell you where are the sex scenes at all? until episode 8 it was great it's more conversation without any action I don't get it I really miss the previous creater you totally ruined this game seriously huge respect for the work but it's the wrong category meh I kinda knew it was going to be a bad one
my conclusion play this game until episode 9 after episode 8 it's gonig to be super boring
Found the game because i was horny, stayed because of the story and Emily god damnit, also i realised the phone number looks like a Malaysian phone number and then i see Em having a Malaysian ic as well 😂
The production side of EP10 is done. All the writing and rendering are complete. EP10 contains 1544 renders including 21 animations in all.
Now I'll start working on the audio side of things and that'll prolly take 2-3 days. Once that's done the script will be sent out for proofreading and after that's done, only the final play test will be left.
So I expect to be able to finally drop EP10 in around a week hopefully, or two at the most.
if i understand correctly you mean the menu that shows something out of something aka 12/15 screen it only shows how many points on a character you have and if you save and find you you missed a point check (it checks if you have enough points for that kind of interaction) you can go back to get enough point for an interaction its merely a replacement for an item that shows affection levels
It's settled then. Ashley it is. Officer Ashley. Had a rough childhood because of his girly name but now he wears a leopard thong under his uniform, constantly adjusting his balls mid conversation. Hangs around all the local gay bars but finds more excitement in debating the thought of going in. Presses his crotch to the rear door whenever he fills up his car, fantasizing what it would be like to inseminate a woman but turns bright red when the neighbours 10 year old daughter sits on his lap. Officer Ashley. Gulping raw cheese since 1967.
when i first found the game i was into it cuz of the content stayed cuz the plot is actually intresting like with ash's family and stuff like i hope it continues cuz im invested
Is this game still being developed? Haven't seen any activity from the dev's Patreon in a little over a month and getting nervous. Been following this game since the first release years ago, and I don't want it to never be finished.
Ashley is, as i has to say, the most sexy Character in all games here so far. Hope we will get a lot more of her ;).....Story is great i admit, but for my taste, Em takes faaaaar too long for getting more intim.....i knew exactly in every scene, that she wouldnt get beyond jeanssex or whatsoever which made it bit chewy with time. But nevertheless....by far the best game here!!!
patreon seems pretty active, last update on there is march 23. remeber that on here we also get updates later, etc. now i do not know if this is hes/her fulltime job or that is something on the side.
This was an amazing game instantly blew my mine on how good this story is also I really love the characters. I don't know if its possible but here is a suggestion could you add some more freedom to the world for example when you wakeup you can choose where you want to go in the house and that there should be some reward or consequences to your actions like add a clock in and every action you take takes time.
Hey guys, time for another sitrep. Just finished the second last major scene for EP10. 276 renders including 7 animations. One more major scene to go after this, and a couple of smaller closing scenes. Here's the current break down of EP10's progress:
----------------------------------
Luis Nightclub Scene: 595 renders/2801 lines of dialogue = Finished.
Thank you fro the updatee. I've been wondering for a while now. This VN has such a great story, I'd be very disappointed (along with a lot of other poeple) if the author just quit.
Do you have any idea when the release for io will be?
I dont know 100% but if I had to guess I would say like another month or two and I dont think we gotta worry about author quiting they seem passionate about the game it just seems like a lot of work and motivation can go up and down
Very good game. Nice plot. Well designed characters, good dialogs. It is only sad, updates are not arriving here. Even for those who paid for it. Patreon is not my way.
This one is a Jem! I was pleasantly surprised by the writing quality. It really is excellent work, and each character has a unique voice, and they all feel authentic! As a writer, I know how challenging that can be. Kudos.
The visuals are outstanding! I absolutely love this AVN and I'm anxiously awaiting the next installments! Keep up the good work, Az!
Trying to find out early but is this a game where you just end up with all the girls or do the choices have enough weight that you need to be careful if you have a favorite girl you wish to romance? In short is this a harem game where you get everyone or is the goal to pick a particular girl you wish to romance?
It's very well written, with lots of interaction between the characters. Not just jealousy, but protectiveness, ambition, insecurity, real character development, etc. To be honest there is not a lot of sex compared to many VNs like this. But it is well worth the price.
DO NOT GO THE PATREON. The Developer tells you what scenes he's working on and tells you. It is so spoiler full I would say just be happy episode 10 is being worked on!
Not dead but very sleepy. The Dev's own posted workrate has it taking at least another 3-6 months, but the stated completion and remaining work looks to me more like the same to do again as has been done since April 2022. So realistically I doubt we will see anything before Halloween.
The guy takes an absolute age to produce each update. It's worth the wait, but the wait each time can be interminable. I find I almost have to go back and replay the game to remember what stage parts of the plot have reached.
This is a really desperate shame because the story and the characters, especially their personalities, interactions and their reactions to circumstance are second to none and make for a very special, amazingly engrossing and immersive experience.
Make no mistake, this is a really standout AVN. Though cruelly unheralded, in my opinion, this is right up there alongside the very best in the genre, but you have to have a tremendous amount of patience. In and of itself, Halfway House, aside from the long "intermissions" is absolutely worth every single penny.
Only the AVN genre. It's like a back-street market with lots of dodgy gear. For example, beware of AVNs saying 1.0.2, or 1.0.5 or even 1.1.0 befcause it DOES NOT mean a finished game, like in every other games genre!
This is one of amazing games i have played, the story and character lines are well thought.. the scenes and arts are BEAUTIFUL ~! ABSOLUTELY 99999/10! .. wish for more awesome content in next updates, i totally recommend the game
Imo you should allow people who finish the game to unlock the gallery. I really don't want to take 1 hour per episode to get the perfect choices. It also makes the game less personal.
This game would be a 4.5 star with a way to unlock the gallery once we finished the game once but is a 3.5 atm. (I missed some scenes and i don't want to replay it again so I'm frustrated)
I hope this is going to get updated. Been a loooong time since the last one and it's a better game than many on here. The dialogue makes some of the others look very amateurish.
If I could rate it higher than 5 I would've. This game has probably the best narrative I've ever experienced in an adult visual novel. The characters are actually believable and don't just serve as cheap porn, they have depth to them and feel like they exist outside of yourself. It feels like you're a PART of the world, rather than being the centre of it. The renders are jaw-droppingly insane to look at, and the NSFW scenes are INCREDIBLE. I can't wait to see what else becomes of this game, having played through the numerous hours of content already available multiple times.
Even if I am the only one who paid for it, I still resent the games always being described as "free on Itch". Free is an OPTION. It is not a "free game"!!!! So I have every right to ask why there has been no developer's notes since April 2022, 10 monhs ago, let alone no update to the game! AVNs that end up doing well, sales wise, are those that have developers keeping their customers updated regularly. The Love of Magic dev did that, and now he's on Steam selling 1,000s and 1,000s of copies! Devs that don't care, have games that don't sell....
if you choose to support that's on you, choosing to support when its OPTIONAL doesn't give anyone the right to demand updates, if it was a paid-only game then it's understandable don't you think the dev is leaving it free for now because he knows he won't be able to make consistent updates?
That's up to him, he could have charged a price from day one. But maybe he knew he preferred all that income from Patreon, so said, "i'll leave it as a free option on Itch, so no one can complain about how I care more about my Patreon customers, and barely care about my itch customers.
I want to know why you are such a big fan? Are you one of his Patreon customers, paying $5 a month for 10 months, so $50 with no update, but you don't care? To be honest, I find your attitude strange?!
Lmfao, all I know is I enjoyed the game, and I also know you don't have to subscribe to the patreon, so why all the complaining when yall went and fk'd yourselves over?

sexual harassment simulator 2023
I love em! don't NTR her.
She is my wife in my darm!
love form china!
Just saw a YouTube review for Episode 10, yet us Itch purchaser are still waiting! And he said Episode 10 was quite short! So A) when will we get it, and B) hot short will it be, after waiting a year?!
And still no sex with Emily, I understand, well, no sex in episode 10 at all...!
Thanks for the info, but one year+ (it's the 17th June and no EP10 for Itch customers!) per update, and it's obvious this game will never be finished. So I will check back in a year....!
if you have no sex in episode 10 you did a lot wrong, it's the most intense of all
Maybe he's talking about real sex and not some fingering.
well then you both did something wrong :-)
This game is very good i liked and enjoyed chapter 10 very much its very well written and to those people who complain abt no sex scenes you guys dont know how to play the game. Great job i like this game and will continue to follow and support its creator
You're obviously a Patreon customer, because on Itch, we're still waiting!
Yeah for 5 bucks ur decision if u want o pay or not I respect either decision. Just wait a little longer i had to wait for a long time too
I paid for this nearly a year ago. I'm done being polite!
Since Episode 9 you guys totally messed up the story I tell you where are the sex scenes at all? until episode 8 it was great it's more conversation without any action I don't get it I really miss the previous creater you totally ruined this game seriously huge respect for the work but it's the wrong category meh I kinda knew it was going to be a bad one
my conclusion play this game until episode 9 after episode 8 it's gonig to be super boring
no it's not, episode 10 is the best of the game
When 'll be episode 10 released on itch.io?
episode 10 is only for patreon
For now
Yea, so what's the point of buying it on Itch? I give up on new purchases on Itch, only look at the "Free to Download" games!
You can download from adultgamesworld
Found the game because i was horny, stayed because of the story and Emily god damnit, also i realised the phone number looks like a Malaysian phone number and then i see Em having a Malaysian ic as well 😂
Yes bro 🤣I'm are malaysian to just want call that number
I swear to God if you setup some NTR shit, I'll be so furious
I love NTR. It makes all the incels post in agony, because now even their waifus cheat on them.
You love NTR because you're a loser
As I predicted: the next incel presents itself. And you even made an account, especially for me, How flattering.
bro what?? youre calling people incels cause they dont like ntr... weirdo
And yet, here you are.
Soooo you're telling me incels are just people that don't want to get cheated on?
Please, delete yourself. The world would be a better place without trash like you.
You can't delete real life girls. But you don't know about that, do you?
EP10 Final Sitrep
Hey Folks,
The production side of EP10 is done. All the writing and rendering are complete. EP10 contains 1544 renders including 21 animations in all.
Now I'll start working on the audio side of things and that'll prolly take 2-3 days. Once that's done the script will be sent out for proofreading and after that's done, only the final play test will be left.
So I expect to be able to finally drop EP10 in around a week hopefully, or two at the most.
Thanks,
Az.
this was two days ago
and now it was a week ago
It's out on Patreon
And now it's been a month
Hell yeah, I can't wait! This is one of the best visual novels I've played so far!
Is ntr avoidable?
yes you just try to not get any points on one character its easier on ashleys side cuz you just say you dont awnna and rest is history
what do i do at points check?
nothing just clock to go to part 2
What do you mean?
if i understand correctly you mean the menu that shows something out of something aka 12/15 screen it only shows how many points on a character you have and if you save and find you you missed a point check (it checks if you have enough points for that kind of interaction) you can go back to get enough point for an interaction its merely a replacement for an item that shows affection levels
Thanks
is it just me or when i see officer monroe i instantly think his name would be tony? like this if you agree EDIT: like cmon he looks like a tony
He's more Bob or Ron. Something mono syllablish
ron hell naw but bob is debatable
It's settled then. Ashley it is. Officer Ashley. Had a rough childhood because of his girly name but now he wears a leopard thong under his uniform, constantly adjusting his balls mid conversation. Hangs around all the local gay bars but finds more excitement in debating the thought of going in. Presses his crotch to the rear door whenever he fills up his car, fantasizing what it would be like to inseminate a woman but turns bright red when the neighbours 10 year old daughter sits on his lap. Officer Ashley. Gulping raw cheese since 1967.
bro you know hes interested in samantha? meaning he isnt gay? and we didnt settle on ashley we can just call him Paffuto Monroe
Italian Mobster look
when i first found the game i was into it cuz of the content stayed cuz the plot is actually intresting like with ash's family and stuff like i hope it continues cuz im invested

Unlock every scene of this game. Almost try all the way the story was supposed to go. Waiting for new update 🙂🙂
you understand this game was updated one year ago its gonna either be a packed update or an abandoned project
patreon seems pretty active, last update on there is march 23.
remeber that on here we also get updates later, etc.
now i do not know if this is hes/her fulltime job or that is something on the side.
This was an amazing game instantly blew my mine on how good this story is also I really love the characters.

I hit him with a post about forgetting the people being left out of the loop. Let's see if he catches on to my statement and makes an appearance.
For anyone getting stuck in the warning screen (android version) connect a mouse via usb and click
i would rather die than engage in a relationship with ashlyn
Poor soul, feisty girls are the best. U don't kn what your missing out
ashley’s fine, ashlyn is unacceptable
Oh her, i don't like her that much aside from her bod, she is full of shit actually
Good game.. hoping for things roll out with em and ash

This from the creators Patreon from March 17th game isn't dead creator just sucks at updating itch.io page
Thank you fro the updatee. I've been wondering for a while now. This VN has such a great story, I'd be very disappointed (along with a lot of other poeple) if the author just quit.
Do you have any idea when the release for io will be?
I dont know 100% but if I had to guess I would say like another month or two and I dont think we gotta worry about author quiting they seem passionate about the game it just seems like a lot of work and motivation can go up and down
Thanks for the heads up! I was just thinking this title was abandoned till I checked the comments section
Very good game. Nice plot. Well designed characters, good dialogs. It is only sad, updates are not arriving here. Even for those who paid for it. Patreon is not my way.
Same. I'm happy to do a one-off payment for a game, but won't do Patreon or a Patreon style method of payment. Besides, Patreon are a shit company.
I agree. Way too many times Patreon has charged me after canceling.
i have played this game and i really enjoyed it, i am concern that there has been no updates since 2022. what is next
10+ months ago, no communication, leta alone update. This game is dead or exlusive to Patreon now.
AZ posted that there still working on it and theres still more Az has to do prob wont see anything til later this year

Just finished episode 9. Cool game. The characters are so damn hot, and Emily is soooo cuuute, I love her.
Do I have to be a patron to join the discord server?
Cant wait for episode 10, gotta keep my romancing of Em going

Replaying to unlock the gallery is easy, just use the ctrl button to breeze through seen text.
i'm on android so it takes quite long to skip the text.
aww, that sucks. never play in android, but that sounds like pain.
I hope this is going to get updated. Been a loooong time since the last one and it's a better game than many on here. The dialogue makes some of the others look very amateurish.
The developer still gives updates on their Patreon

chill out, its a free game
All this crap about milking, if you're subscribed to the patreon that's on you, no one is making you do that fools
Even if I am the only one who paid for it, I still resent the games always being described as "free on Itch". Free is an OPTION. It is not a "free game"!!!!

when is their going to be more episodes im really hooked on the game
They are giving progrees reports on their Patreon.
