This is true, and Ally is literally a robot without a gender or even the concept of sexual reproduction, so they are referred to as they. But I am not interested in engaging with anyone's lame ass culture war.
It wasn't an inspiration. I actually just watched Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein the other day and didn't even consider how they both lacked a childhood. Nice catch
It is unfortunately too common for me to see people dedicate their lives to downvoting and harassing people on this platform. I'm not sure if that's what happened here, but it has happened to me before.
That's the first time I've heard of this bug, it's strange that this randomly occurred. The easiest and simplest solution would be to install a fresh download.
Thank you so much! I'm not much of a programmer myself either, most of my time goes into storyboarding and scene creation.
Yeah, Android is lagging behind with outfits. It's on my to-do list!
I try to only include things I'm very interested in within HH, it helps avoid burnout and keeps me motivated to create. I don't always strictly stick to this rule, I love to make the players happy, but this is why there hasn't been much queer content. However the situation you brought up does sort of happen at The Beach.
Because all explore content is early game content designed to introduce you to this world, it is intended that you will lose access to it after a certain point. Any story content from the city will be lost if you decide not to do it by this point in the story, as it would not make much sense. But the explore content is planned to return with a whole new set of events, re-introducing you to a world that has changed.
Thanks for the question, the next update is currently being worked on. I unfortunately had a very brutal bilateral ear infection which caused both of my ears to explode and deafened me for two months, so that knocked me out a bit, but work is being done!
Ah this one, this seems to be a very odd and specific bug. You should only need a full fresh install to fix this. One of your scripts may have been corrupted during an update.
Great points, I would love to explain, but the goal is that it should be clear in game.
When it boils down to it, Android is a human in a (mostly) metal body. But how do I explain that she has human issues when she's capable of much more? It's tough, but this is how she works:
She is a very new soul, still discovering how the world works. She has all the capabilities of an adult if an adult was dropped in a completely unfamiliar environment and had to learn everything from the start again. Nothing in our reality comes natural to her, so she must discover what reality is. And her whole world has been the hotel, and the people in it. Naturally her first priority would be to protect them and interact with them. Protection is easy, it's a science, but socializing is an art, and that's what she struggles with specifically. Anyone with autism like myself knows that these things don't come so naturally to us, and it's almost impossible to learn how to be social from someone else, you have to actually practice it and discover what works.
Android absolutely has the capability to do all of the things you mentioned, she would just need to practice or download the information, of which she has limited storage. So she must prioritize the memories and feelings of her loved ones.
Regarding her EMP protection, most of her parts especially early on are ancient technology in the context of this universe. It's 30+ years old. But you're right, that is totally a possibility, and a great idea for an upgrade.
To reach level 4 with Moon, visit the bar on a monday. Maria must be available. If reaching this event is too confusing, let me know, and I will work towards making it clear in game.
The Pre-Alpha is a very unique build which includes only the new mechanics coming to v0.20. These additions make big adjustments to the core of the gameplay and how you progress the hotel.
Human-to-human conversation is still very valuable and easier in most cases. If someone is nice enough to respectfully ask a question, then we can respectfully answer it.
That's right! This story is focused on abolishing abusive power structures rather than taking advantage of them.
This story takes inspiration from historical events, such as abolishing slavery and monopolies. As well as goals such as abolishing poverty and corruption.
The main cast are abolishonists. Not strictly in the freedom from slavery sense, but the literal definition "To do away with". In the context of this story that means to do away with the laws, institutions, and governance that has personally affected their freedoms. Change and hope for the future are big themes here.
Currently there is nothing that can be done about the lockdown once it has happened. The farm is content that was added recently, but it's designed to be experienced early on a new save.
The shitty thing about reports is that they're sent to me, not directly to itch.io staff. Even when I report the reported content, it goes straight to me haha
Itch.io staff does seem to become aware of accounts with enough reports though, so it's a team effort. Sometimes accounts do get globally banned before I have the opportunity to ban them here. If I were to guess, one person reporting all of their comments does more than mass reporting one comment.
