I created the account with the specific purpose to leave a comment on this game.

While AVNs are widely seen as having lewd content as a main thing, there are some, few of them, which are truly gems from every point of view, and Harem Hotel is one of them.
As a writer with 6 published books, I was astonished by the plot twists and the crazy - in a good way - ideas that Runey is offering us, and I have to admit that I was on my toes while playing this game  - fourth time, that is.

I am not going to give any spoilers; however, it's amazing how the Dev was able to give every character it's own personality in a way that you can almost feel them with you, understand hem and empathize with them... even shed a tear with them.
Placing normal people in a futuristic environment allowed the dev to imagine some twisted situations which are blowing your mind, but the huge achievement is the realistic actions and reactions of every character, according to its personality.
This is one of the aspects that separates Harem Hotel from the countless other AVNs - it is NOT a graphic novel where people (or other creatures) are fucking each other's brains out, but a complete life story, which is very hard to achieve by using 3D renders and text, but Runey is doing it at a level that clearly shows that this dude (or dudette, haha!!) have a special talent many AVN author would love to have.

Let me be clear: I'm into lewd stuff like the the next guy, but it needs to be in a context which is believable, like I pound this woman because I love her, not because my dick is craving for any possible hole. The Dev is doing exactly this: is giving you, as the player, a reason for everything.
I was playing this game with my wife, and she was in tears when the characters suffered, and that tells a lot... the bitch is not a sissy, I can tell you THAT, haha! 

Earning my cash from 3D projects, I am able to look on the renders with a bit of critical eye, and let me tell you this, Runey: you, Sir (or Ma'am) are good. Not only on writing an astonishing story, but from the graphic point of view as well. The way you optimized the graphic, the camera positioning, the lighting, the focus, they are very good, not to mention the small details  that give each and every character the unique traits that define them in the story context.
As a published writer, I can tell you this: you're good, really good. When I'm working on a book, the toughest part is to build the whole context in order to give the reader the feeling of credibility and continuity, I'm sure you know what I mean. You're doing it, and you're doing it really well. In fact, I can see a whole book based on your AVN.

As a man born and raised in a normal world, I am a bit annoyed by the terms „they” and „them” given to certain characters, but I guess it's because of the need to be „politically correct”... which I am not. For me, a Man is something with a dick sticking in a pussy, that's it - to put it in a „lewd” and stupid way.
I don't mean to offend anyone with this, but it's too late to change my way of thinking now, haha! You cannot teach an old horse to do tricks...

To summarize, Harem Hotel is one of the best AVN I play - and I am really picky, trust me - and I really hope you will get the support you deserve, Dev!

Congratulations, Runey!
