I think it might be fixed. After ringing around it seems like a cached version got stuck somewhere. I got them to manually clear it on Friday. Rang them again today when I wasn't seeing any changes on my test machine. Was made to look rather foolish when clearing the local browser cache/viewing in an incognito window and did see the updated version.
Web design is fun. :D
Oh well, hopefully the problem is fixed now and you should be able to see the changes at houseofhellishharlots.com.
You might also notice a few changes. There is an option to play the latest version, but this is password protected with the password given out on Patreon/SubscribeStar.
The public build is also available. This should now be at v0.038.
While I've been focused on the website, I thought it would be a good time to cross some other things off the ToDo list. There is now a small harlot gallery featuring artwork I and others (okay, just Mark45 at the moment) have had commissioned of some of the harlots. I'm hoping to add to it.
There's also a tab with all my books. Man's gotta pay bills and eat.
Anyway, hopefully the issues are over and the website is now updated for everyone. (If not, try clearing your local browser cache or an incognito window. You'll know you have the new version as there are now 2 "Play" buttons on the welcome page - latest and public.)
As we've established, I'm pretty much a rank amateur when it comes to the web design side of things, so if you run into issues - eg pictures loading too slowly because I put the wrong file up, let me know in the comments below. Any feedback much appreciated.
I'm hoping it's fixed now...
Hm, interesting. Wasn't able to enter the site. Connection timeout. Considered it might be the local issue, got Estonian proxy - still no effect. A couple of days ago everything went fine. Might be temporary, I'll try again in a few days
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you're still getting the problem. It's really tricky trying to fix things as everything always looks okay on my machine, so I'm not aware of any problems elsewhere.
DeleteSomeone was asking you about Succubus Summoning character alignment earlier, so I was wondering, are you going to add any succubi from this series to the game?
ReplyDeleteNurse Honey is already in as an NPC. I'd like to give some of the others cameos as well. The project has grown a bit bigger and longer than I originally intended, so main focus is the core stuff at the moment.
Deletewith some of the new ai art generation out there, like stable diffusion, have you considered generating ai artwork for the harlots?
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty poor for monster girls in my experience.
DeleteI think it might be okay for portraits for NPC characters. I have a plan to use AI art placeholders for a possible future Godot version. I don't think I can add much art to Twine without it slowing down to a crawl.
