While wading through the sticky swamps of 4chan I found a link to this:
(these hentai sites tend to be iffy on things - make sure adblock is on and virus shield is fully deployed! :) )
http://hentaimama.com/episodes/muma-no-machi-cornelica-episode-1/
It's a hentai anime of Dieselmine's Cornelica, Town of Succubi game.
This was a game I ended up skipping. If you're wondering why I don't cover Japanese succubus/monster girl H-games as much as I used to, the main reason is because successive Windows updates have completely borked most of the hooking and machine translation tools. Unless I get around to learning to read Japanese, I can't really play these. I did try doing a walkthrough of Monmusu Conquered World blind, but the results were a bit shit to be honest.
(although some have had translation patches - I really need to write about Shrift and Lust Grimm at some point)
Cornelica looked interesting, but Dieselmine did their typical Dieselmine thing of having the random encounters have the nice pseudo-animated (basic Photoshop puppeting at a guess) scenes while the main, named characters all had static-image Bad End scenes. They did get this right with the following game, Monster Girl Labyrinth, which did have some delicious Bad End scenes, including the lovely boob monster girl who inspired the current story I'm working on (No, I haven't forgotten about it).
I did like the setting. A town of succubi seems a fun location to work with and it's nice to see someone make an anime using the location and characters. The big-boobed innkeeper succubus, the big-boobed temple succubus and the cat-eared shopkeeper succubus all get to fuck the hapless protagonist, much to the disgust of his succubus girlfriend.
Maybe I'll try the game out if I can ever get hooking and translation to work again (or get a new laptop with a non-shit version of Windows).
(As an aside, yes I know I went AWOL for a couple of weeks again. This is what happens when you effectively live two lives and the other one has to take precedence for a short while. Rather than post yet another not-update post I thought I'd post links to some sexy succubus snu-snu instead.)

A belated November update
Apologies for the belated update. I've had some dental work done which has knocked me about a bit (having bits of metal screwed into your skull will do that!).
So, what has Hydra been up to?
As part of my commitment to patrons, I've been looking at posting story ideas from my ideas file and behind-the-scenes looks at some of my stories. I wanted to do a piece on H-space, but I wasn't really happy with how that piece was turning out. Mostly, I was unhappy with how long it was taking. When I'm in slow, scratchy periods of writing, pieces like that sometimes eat up far too much of the day. That's time that should be spent writing fiction or creating CYOAs.
(This is the reason I stopped writing the more general blog posts on other subjects – I'm not very quick at writing them and it's time that should be spent writing more useful things.)
I don't want to stop writing those pieces, or the game reviews, walkthrough etc. Currently I'm experimenting with zoning off bits of the day so I can write these bits'n'bobs without suddenly looking up and realising I've wasted most of the day dicking about on some less-important paragraphs when I could have been bashing out another short story/chapter.
I'll come back to the H-space behind-scenes-stuff article at a later date. I've been trying to think about what to do with the H-space bestiary. I think I can make a good collection (or collections) with the material I have, but I think the current stories need a little more fleshing out before I'd be comfortable publishing them (and others) as an ebook.
In the meantime, I've set aside an hour a day. I'll use it for the more general posts to keep both the manyeyedhydra blog ticking over with new content as well as give some nice behind-scenes insights for patrons.
(Although, for the next week it's mostly going to be needed for filing my tax returns. Blegh.)
As for actual writing. That was a little spotty about the time of having dental work, but is moving quite rapidly again. The first draft of the boob monster girl story is pretty much done and I'm about 2K words into typing it up. I'm hoping to have that done in the next couple of days. It will be a patreon exclusive, I'm afraid, but only a temporary one. I'm getting close to enough material for another ebook, and it will be included in the next collection.
I put the CYOA on the backburner a little while I was focused on getting the boob monster girl sort story written. That should jump back to the forefront now the first draft of said boob monster girl story is done. I'm targeting end December/early January for that, although it might slip depending on how difficult the central mechanic proves to implement in Twine.
And that's that for this week. I'm still looking to find the right day for these update posts, so expect them to slide around a little until I find a slot that fits.
