bro no matter what i do i can't get emily to ''feed it to me'' i have her cp max and her fp is really high but i keep missing her checks.can someone help
Hey man, since i've reached the end of the last update, i'm dying to know if you can tell us, the next one is close now, or it will take some more months?
I loved the story and the characters were pretty balanced. You have to work to get Sam and Ashley's arc was a pleasant surprise. The only problem was that there isn't more, or the ability to carry on in Sandbox mode with relationships as they were at the end point.
Dude, what is your obsession with making "choices" that are just ONE option? More work for you, and aggravating for me.
Also, where in the hell is the "skip" button? You make a game with branching paths, an utterly ridiculous number of points checks, and NO WAY to skip re-reading all of that pathetic, juvenile dialogue. Or are you under the impression that the writing is strong enough that people will want to re-read it a dozen times? Or maybe you are just trying to give people Carpal Tunnel Syndrome by forcing them to click the mouse a couple of trillion times.
Great design decisions, I say sarcastically. I made it all the way to 'Episode 4' before I quit trying to find out if this whiny little MC would finally grow a pair.
Looks like you never created a game !!! In my game I'm creating atm I have sometimes three choices to choose from but only if you had picked up or chosen some certain pathway, so the option comes up. For example, If you go way 1 than 2 it gives you 2-3 options but if you go way 2 than 1 it gives you only one as you do not meet the requirements to get more options.
But as simply already said, don't like it delete it!
Se que no podría ir mucho con la dinámica del juego , pero hay que considerar que es demasiado sexi la doctora kineida. Personalmente adoro sus apariciones y la rivalidad con Emily, te suplico de rodillas saca más contenido de ella el que sea posible
Ugh... it's actually worse now. It's not loading on the itch page AND now I can't get it to load when I try to load it directly.
It gives this error:
403. <ins>That’s an error.</ins>
Your client does not have permission to get URL /BYO7L8HjFI0n7duCX57FxJp7AL8Bqb43tlBzSBrgVi1CZ5iMpb_vqUI0x_JTAOHLe-6qBQQF9wTqM_EMdnxBe_Ow5IRaRhx66vz0T2QyYx2FOXINwivB9OYebvay79IdDQ=w1280 from this server.
I felt it was just one giant TEASE.. Don't get me wrong the visuals are pretty stellar and some sexy images within the scenes but it's way too limited. While quickly clicking through dialogue I literally kept saying "this game sucks."
I did read it (at least into Episode 4 before giving up) and it absolutely DOES suck.
The MC spends all of his time thinking perverted thoughts, and then when faced with the option to act on them, he speaks like a prude, acts shy, and tries to c*ckblock himself.
You spend hours "corrupting" the girls, and then get told, "Slow down, let's re-evaluate what we're doing."
Because of the endless "points checks" you are forced to either miss scenes, or back up ad try again. If you DO back up, there is no skip button, so you have to spam the mouse to get back to where you were. And then the "scene" is just a couple of poses, or the MC jerking off.
The dev is OBSESSED with asses, and that's fine, but some angles of the girls where more than their backs are shown would be appreciated.
This game is a great study in how NOT to design a game.
I totally agree! This is one of a few AVNs that give you a quality story to work through that actually gets your attention and makes you want this character or that character to get ahead or come out on top of their situation. It is even better when this applies to ANY character in the game including the player MC. I really like games that make you feel what the characters are felling. Great job AZ!!! Keep it up!!
Man youre really all over these comments loudly proclaiming how much you dont like the game. Who tf cares? If you dont like it then move on. No one wants go read through all your cringy paragraphs where youre jerking off on the screen on how much you hate the game. Go play something else instead of crying about it. You dont like it, big whoop. Plenty of other people do. So go play a game you DO like and stop whining about this one. And you call other people retarded. Clearly you spend too much time playing porn games instead of talking to real people
I just saw a post on Az's Patreon on this one. He's working on EP 11. I'm not sure when or if it will make it here on Itch, though. But, by all appearances, it will continue.
No, I'm not dead and the game isn't abandoned. I'm just slow. If there's ever a doubt whether I've abandoned the game or not just check my Patreon. No need to pledge either, there should be some updates or news on the game open to everyone there. I just don't put as much focus on community engagement and keeping everyone up to date as I probably should and what focus I do put in, is on Patreon, as that's where 95% of my earnings for this game comes from.
i finally got the main story anf 4 bonus packs downloaded, and in turn, i am uploading to archive,org, which has no limits/restrctions on size or speed downloads, and none of the problems itch.io and mega.nz had, and it is free and provides torrent downloads. I will update this with the url once i get everything worked out!( Az, i hope in the future, you will upload to archive.org--that's what it is for! a free archive of anything ever published on the internet.) My own future updates may include walkthroughs and other content / game tools, we'll see. (slight delay in uploading as i failed to include the main storyline....)
the repository on archive.org is partially in place, including *.torrent downloads: https://archive.org/details/halfway-house--adult-visual-novel . I am still working on a few things, such as virus scan info and file verification hashes, but the bulk is ready to go. te archive.org *.torrent downloads everything in the repository, to grab only specific files, you will have to browse and choose which files you want.
Mega does usually offer better and cleaner downloads. As long as they pay the needed attention to the files they accept to the site. Mega will be a good site to upload the upcomming game updates for sure.
AND
Yes. I too have subscribed to Mega.. There was a problem with one of their site updates that screwed up how Mega recognizes browsers and it was trying to force me to download their propriatary download manager which I do not need with my browser of choice. About 2 weeks ago they had another site update and this issue vanished. Now it is no longer telling me my "Chrome" browser (which it is NOT) does not have enough memory for downloads larger than 2gb. It is so nice to again be able to download up to 8 files larger than 4 GB at a time with each running at a respectible 10-12 MBS. I don't know what I would do without high speed cable internet.
When the next update comes out is there any chance it may be offered for an option to download it from gofile? That download site does not appear to have ANY file size limitations and downloading is usually fairly fast with far less errors and file corruptions compared to other sites. PD has dropped their 20 gig limit to 10 gigs and now is limited to 5 gigs... All over the past year. I closed my account with them when I opened it to remove the 20 gig limit since many games are larger than that. Right after I opened it they dropped to 10... About a month after I closed it they dropped to 5.. I hate double standards and false promises.. Don't you all?
That's why I have been subscribing to Mega. It's very cheap compared to most of the shitty file hosts out there, you also get to keep your download quota when you renew. I have something like 23TB quota, from subscribing for years. The best part is they are better than the file hosts you have quoted, given the security on mega and your account. I have a fairly large amount of storage, at 400gb. I barely use it for storage, except when I need to upload my games back to my mega account, and then I can access and download them elsewhere. I used it mainly to download avn's from places like f95. Where there are needed mods for many of these avn's. Let's put it this way, they are far cheaper than other hosts and your quota carries over year after year if you haven't spent it all, and give the average size of an avn is between 2/5gb. You'll find most of the avn's are uploaded to places like mega on other avn sites. Your not limited to here to get this game.
Anyway the length of time it took to get episode 10 and the small size of it, after more than a year, and the really mentally challenged mc, I kind of gave up on it for the time being. He couldn't even be assed to put a christmas special out that didn't need to be part of the story.
I uploaded to archive,org, so no more mega.nz needed, or need for gofile. archive.org has a huge amount of file space and bandwidth for archives, and is very solid, stable, and completely free (oly yearly donation events to raise money for costs...)
Gonna be honest here. This game is amazing, I will admit it drags slightly if your just here for a wank but trust me. As more content comes this will only get better, To be honest, this is a game I would genuinely pay for once more content comes. BTW, Ashley best girl.
I have got to say I never thought there would be a game in this genre that would have an great story and even better scenes all the main characters are great an far exceeded what I expected and every character is well made and hell even Luis and monroe are great can't say that I was expecting what I got at all since the usual run of the mill games like this are primarily centered around sex rather then the story but this game has both and it is amazing.
im a sappy, degenerate, an a big baby (IRL) but back to what i was saying about the game like i said the story is good and gets better as it progresses I only started it yesterday an i just finished with the latest episode and god i can honestly say i can not wait for the next update.
Props to the Dev (Az) and everyone else who had a hand in the making of this fantastic V.N. really makes me enjoy the tiny things in life.
An again absolutely love the game can't wait for the next update.

Hey Az, I absolutely love the game. Just wanted to know how many total episodes will there be after the game is finished. Thanks, take care bro beans.
The game is being worked on, check the patreon
Is there a Discord for this?
Probably if you are a patron through Patreon
I extracted the game now it doesnt open, is it because i use win 7?
I thought the game was being updated today i hope everything is ok
genuinely ask but is this game contains sex scenes?
It really depends on how you play your cards! It's really interesting!!! Go and try it out!
bro no matter what i do i can't get emily to ''feed it to me'' i have her cp max and her fp is really high but i keep missing her checks.can someone help
Used to have that problem too try focusing on raising only one meter either cp or fp
Hey man, since i've reached the end of the last update, i'm dying to know if you can tell us, the next one is close now, or it will take some more months?
Amazing story, keep up man, tks.
I loved the story and the characters were pretty balanced. You have to work to get Sam and Ashley's arc was a pleasant surprise. The only problem was that there isn't more, or the ability to carry on in Sandbox mode with relationships as they were at the end point.
Keep up the good work.
Does it have anal scenes?
I love it! good story, great characters writing & superb chars models.
Keep up the good work, I'll support your patron as soon as I can.

Hi, if you're playing on a PC, just hit Tab, else it would be easier if you mentioned the platform used.
its his first game....theres no need to be such a jerk abt it, if u dont like the game uninstall and move on.
If on PC you can also hold right ctrl to skip
Looks like you never created a game !!! In my game I'm creating atm I have sometimes three choices to choose from but only if you had picked up or chosen some certain pathway, so the option comes up.

Any idea on if/when the next version will be available?
April'24
I'm not sure how to say this but Ashley looks enough like Cillian Murphy in a way that I'm not sure how I feel about
Good game though
Who is Cillian Murphy, and why should that be disturbing?
Tomas Shelby from Peaky Blinders, the Peaky fookin' Blinders!
Maybe you are just becoming aware of hidden desires!
Brilliant game fully recommend for anyone who enjoys AVNs!
Se que no podría ir mucho con la dinámica del juego , pero hay que considerar que es demasiado sexi la doctora kineida. Personalmente adoro sus apariciones y la rivalidad con Emily, te suplico de rodillas saca más contenido de ella el que sea posible
Whats the time table for the next release?
The character portraits no longer load here.
When I copy their link and paste it, it still loads just fine.
Maybe google had changed something about their image hosting?
Yeah, I'm facing the same issue
fixed
Ugh... it's actually worse now.
It's not loading on the itch page AND now I can't get it to load when I try to load it directly.
It gives this error:

Yup can confirm I can see them now. :-)
Thanks for fixing it!
Seems to be broken again. :/ Low-end shared hosting starts at about $10 a month, so maybe you should just bite the bullet. :-)
WASTE OF TIME
I agree
I felt it was just one giant TEASE.. Don't get me wrong the visuals are pretty stellar and some sexy images within the scenes but it's way too limited. While quickly clicking through dialogue I literally kept saying "this game sucks."
read it, its about story telling but I haven't play it yet so I can't say much but read it
I did read it (at least into Episode 4 before giving up) and it absolutely DOES suck.
The MC spends all of his time thinking perverted thoughts, and then when faced with the option to act on them, he speaks like a prude, acts shy, and tries to c*ckblock himself.

The dev is OBSESSED with asses, and that's fine, but some angles of the girls where more than their backs are shown would be appreciated.
This game is a great study in how NOT to design a game.
If you play this game just to nut, you're not going to get into it. If you want an A-grade story this is the game for you. I love this game
I totally agree!

It is even better when this applies to ANY character in the game including the player MC. I really like games that make you feel what the characters are felling. Great job AZ!!! Keep it up!!
HAHAHA! This story is juvenile trash that should embarrass a dim witted 12 year old.
It's clear that the writer has never been closer to a woman than 'PornHub,' and learned the rules of consent from Twitch THOTs and militant lesbians.
Luckily for the writer, most people fully immersed in 21st century culture end up functionally retarded, and won't even notice.
So...enjoy your "A-grade" trash, I guess.
Man youre really all over these comments loudly proclaiming how much you dont like the game. Who tf cares? If you dont like it then move on. No one wants go read through all your cringy paragraphs where youre jerking off on the screen on how much you hate the game. Go play something else instead of crying about it.

Clearly you spend too much time playing porn games instead of talking to real people
Also whenever anyone replys they stay quiet. Seems like they're the pussy they keep saying the mc is. I bro is just a weirdo
out of curiosity, but is this gonna continue
That's what I'd like to know. All the best AVNs seem to die, and the crappy one's get to 1.0!
I just saw a post on Az's Patreon on this one. He's working on EP 11. I'm not sure when or if it will make it here on Itch, though. But, by all appearances, it will continue.
abandoned
Is that from Az's Patreon or not?
i am his wife. covid got him. funeral tomorrow
you are what? LOL
No, I'm not dead and the game isn't abandoned. I'm just slow. If there's ever a doubt whether I've abandoned the game or not just check my Patreon.

I appreciate your reply, how would I locate your patreon as I don't see a link to it in game
Bottom left in the game's main menu. Or enter "Az Patreon" on google
Maddy! Maddy! Maddy!
She is just like how I could imagine to have a big neighbor sister to be.
Of course the whole story is great. Really won't want to let any of these ladies down. Good people deserve good. So happy ending plzzz! Love you😘

Great graphics but I wish this was a game. Endless dialogues with hardly any possibility to interact.
wish i could play game in browser
You can play this in a browser here -> Halfway House episode 1-10 hope this helps you.
Is there a way to download it not through mega? that would be great.
see my post uploading to the great Internet Archive @ archive.org.
Is this game still being updated It hasn't been updated since August 19th 2023 that's a long time giving that is going into December 2023
According to Patreon there are three subparts and he has finished 60% of the first part. So basically 20% of the total release.
The previous two updates took 13 to 16 months. If there's no update by December 2024, worry.
Yes, is it possible to make the guy cooler in the new version and so that he can fight normally
привет можно спросить когда будет новая версия и ещё можно будет иметь отношения со всеми девушками?
Absolutely amazing. Great script, wonderful characters, lots of fun. Office Monroe is the best dude ever! lol. So well done.
Gonna be honest here. This game is amazing, I will admit it drags slightly if your just here for a wank but trust me. As more content comes this will only get better, To be honest, this is a game I would genuinely pay for once more content comes. BTW, Ashley best girl.
