Hello everyone! Harem Hotel turned 7 this may, and what a journey it's been.

Over seven years ago I started this project with little game dev experience, and no writing experience. Since then, Harem Hotel has grown far beyond what I could have imagined. Through your support, developing Harem Hotel has truly changed my life for the better in ways I couldn't have possibly predicted. So to everyone who has played, shared, streamed, or supported the game, THANK YOU! This is as much a celebration of you as it is the continued development.

Seven years of growth, learning, and... some unfortunate surprises along the way. There aren't many platforms willing to support this type of content, and many more authorities would love to see it all burn, especially these days. Crazy how a couple of cute girls can threaten a government so much. Though I suppose we see that first hand in the game too, don't we? :)

There are many projects planned for Harem Hotel going forward, such as a mobile phone feature, a new main and side character, and "Explore 2.0" to name just a few. I'm very excited for the future of Harem Hotel, and I hope you'll all be there to witness the end :)

I try not to make a habit of talking about my personal life too much, but development has been slow in May due to some severe illness I had. I figured it would last only a few days, but it culminated in me having a damaged lung over the course of weeks. I'm not sure what it was, but development is back on track.

As always, thank you all so much for supporting Harem Hotel. You can expect v0.19 Beta 3 soon!
