Harlot Art - Sapoonismenee Nerei

Here is some more lovely harlot art, again from the Atlantis27/Thraeh combo.  This time a player taking a hot bath with the lovely water nymph Sapoonismenee Nerei.  I'm guessing this player had DEX 5 and got plenty of Sapoonis's special foam in the body-to-body massage that followed. ;)

It's nice to see more details of the opulent luxury of some of the harlot's rooms.

I do have plans for a tentative team-up where Sapoonis and Aphroú double-team the player.  Then I remember that won't mean anything to anyone as Aphroú hasn't actually been released yet.  (You should get a chance to play with her in the v0.47 release scheduled for the end of the month.)

Thank you to Thraeh for illustrating Sapoonis and to Atlantis27 for commissioning the piece and kindly allowing me to share it here.

House of Hellish Harlots v0.041 (Lady Flumpth, Restructuring)

I've updated the public version of House of Hellish Harlots to v0.041.  You can play it here:
https://houseofhellishharlots.com/

On the surface it's another small release, adding just one new harlot.

Lady Flumpth
The rather disreputable (and mouldy) Lady Flumpth doesn't put much stock in The Madam's 'rules' or 'fair play'.  Thankfully, while the stat requirements are reasonably high to escape her 'trap' for an intended early tier harlot, there are enough ways to dodge coming to a sticky end (a bit literally with her), so it should be fairly easy.

The reason for the one-harlot releases for a couple of months is because I had to restructure the project under the hood.  It had grown too large for the Twine editor to handle it without heavy lag, so I split it into 7 sub-projects and are now using Tweego to reassemble it into a single file.  It seems to be working and patrons haven't noticed anything breaking.  If something has been missed, let me know below.

The Patreon and SubscribeStar releases are still a few versions ahead.  I gave them v0.044 yesterday.  This is also a single harlot release - the very weird N'gleria Sepiida.

I'm currently engaged in a couple of months of solid short story writing to put a 7th collection together.  I do have multiple HoHH releases queued up over this period, but they will be small releases until I get the 7th collection out of the way.  After that I'm hoping to push on and add the more complex 'mini-boss' harlots.

New(ish) Short Story: Men are from Mars, Mantraps are from Venus

One of my ongoing background projects is to take the old H-space bestiary shorts I wrote a few years back and beef them up into proper short stories.  The latest is available on Patreon/SubscribeStar.

"Men are from Mars, Mantraps are from Venus" on Patreon.
"Men are from Mars, Mantraps are from Venus" on SubscribeStar.

This is another temporary exclusive.  I'm slowly working through the old H-space bestiary stories.  At some point I'll have enough to start gathering them into ebook collections for Amazon and other places.

This was originally the Venus Mantrap story.  I fleshed out the background to explain how the soldiers got there and also to try and build up the classic "Green Hell" jungle atmosphere.

As with the original, the ending is pretty icky, so watch out for that one.  I do like to push the horror a little bit more with the H-space stories.

In case people are wondering, I don't have a good track record with H-space stories getting accepted on Literotica.  They're usually a little nastier than my regular horror stories and the scarlet imps tend to get a story bounced whenever they show up.  As a result I don't bother posting them there (but do still plan to post other stories).  It's also nice to have some exclusive content I can hold back for patrons/subscribers.  a writer has to eat, so all support gratefully accepted!

Hentai Game Re-Review: Domination Quest 1

Technically, I reviewed this one a while back.  I was in the mood to play a naughty JRPG-type game and remembered the sequel, Domination Quest 2, had come out a month or so ago.  Similar to Monmusu Quest, you can port the old save across, but as that save was many years and a few laptops ago, I decided to play through again rather than try to excavate it from a forgotten hard drive.

Turns out I needed to anyway, as it was only on rereading my original review that I remembered I never completed the first game.  Despite this, and after completing it this time, I don't think I was too far off with what I originally wrote.

I did reach the final boss this time.

The major change is that whatever bugs blighted it before, don't appear to be present now.  I didn't encounter any crashes during my second playthrough.  The other sticking point, and what caused me to abandon my original playthrough in the misty forest area, was the frequency of combat encounters.  That felt like it had been dialled back.  They're still reasonably frequent, but not so frequent that you can barely move without triggering another combat encounter.

Onto the game itself.  Mechanically, it's a turn-based JRPG.  It has the look of a RPGMaker game, but reverse-engineered into Unity.  While this is a little odd, the game does make use of the 3D environments to do some things you wouldn't see in a regular RPGMaker game.

You play as Kuro, who as a dominator has the ability to shrink monster girls down, gobble them up and then recruit them as allies.  Like Pokémon, but weirder and pervier.

Probably best not to ask...

Kuro doesn't have much in the way of fighting power, so you have to rely on a party of monster girls to do it for you.  You have a party of four and a bench of four you can sub in and out.  Along with health bars, the monster girls have stamina bars that are constantly decreasing every turn.  When they run low, they have to 'snack' on Kuro to get their energy back up or get knocked out.  This is where the bulk of the in-combat H-content comes from, as Kuro's allies take a break to blowjob or do some other sex act on him to get their energy levels back up again.

Most of the combat is regular turn-based JRPG, where if you lose you just get a regular GAME OVER scene rather than a sexy Bad End.  There are some elites and boss encounters that are an exception to this.  At some point they'll try and grab Kuro and drain his energy directly, and you have to rely on your allies to hit the opponent enough times to force them to let him go.  As I said in my original review, it's a shame this mechanic isn't used more.

The other areas of H-content are scenes that are unlocked after increasing affection with your allies, and a skinship mechanic where you get carried around by one of your allies in a lewd manner.  That's fun, but the animation does block a good portion of the side of the screen, so might get in the way while exploring a new area.

It feels quite pleasant until your feet start to dissolve...

The story doesn't have too much to it.  It's a standard fantasy setting with humans coexisting with horny monster girls.  Kuro is just about to start his adventuring career when his powerful succubus (dragon?) partner is mind-controlled and snatched by a nefarious group looking to stoke tensions between humans and monsters.  The game is about trying to get her back and breaking the control the enemy demon lord wannabe has over her.

The mechanics are fine.  It's JRPG light with lots of vore themes.  Kuro can't carry weapons and neither does his monster girls, but there's a crafting system where you combine weapons with crystals to boost your party's abilities.  Mostly it's just stat boosts, but some weapons can either defend against or inflict status effects.  It's a nice system, but a little limited.  Adding a chance of instant death to multi-hit attacks was about the most exciting 'combo' I could find.  It would have been nice to have a little more variety here.  I like a bit of greed in my RPGs, so I missed having the usual options to manipulate XP gain, Gold gain, item drop frequency, etc.

As for the themes, it's a Kokage no Izumi game.  This circle likes giantesses, vore, and crude humour.  As I said in the original review, if you like your monster girls on the giant side and with heapings of vore, this is perfect for you.  If those elements leave you cold, there is enough 'regular' monster girl content to make it worth a glance, but it is a little deeper into its chosen fetish zone than something like Monmusu Quest.

Giant farting fairies are pretty much a staple of this circle's work.

In all, it's about 10 hours of reasonable JRPG, with 28 or so sexy(ish) monster girls to have fun with.

As I said in the original review, one of the monster girls (the carnivorous plant girl) gave me inspiration for a short story ("The Banquet of the Queen of the Goblins"), and if I can get a short story out of a hentai game, I consider it a win.  Hopefully, I'll find something that gets the creative juices flowing in the sequel.

Harlot Art - The Madam

Here is some lovely harlot art, or in this case NPC art.  After having art commissioned of Mademoiselle Vête Piège, Atlantis27 commissioned Thraeh for another character - this time The Madam of the House herself.

For more of Thraeh's work, check out their DeviantArt here:
https://www.deviantart.com/thraeh

I must admit, The Madam is one of the characters I have problems with visualising.  She's supposed to be at once both very old and doddering, while at the same time still looking quite hot and very fuckable.  That generally sends my imagination haywire.  Although, in theory, if she was a character in a movie or anime, the way to show that would be to have an early-thirtysomething (and attractive actress) play her with the mannerisms of a far older person.

I think the art does a good job of depicting that.  Old hairstyle and decadent courtesan dress, young face.  And, in the lingerie pose - a very voluptuous and sexy body.

Thanks for having this commissioned, Atlantis27.

And as for The Madam getting a proper scene in the House, that's something I still haven't finalised.  She could just as easily show up as an extra NPC encounter, the queen of one of the factions, or even the final 'boss' the player has to survive in order to escape the House.  I haven't decided yet.

House of Hellish Harlots v0.040

There was a v0.039 put out at the start of March.  Somehow, in all the usual PR posts I do across the internet to promote a new release, I forgot to update my own blog.  Never mind.

If you didn't check it out at the time, v0.039 added 3 new harlots: Negralima-V, N-Carnizadalama, and Cerastesia.

v0.040 just adds the one new harlot: Hati Krim.  She's a blue-skinned alien (-looking) babe that specialises in erotic cream massage.

Around this time I was experimenting with Tweego to restructure the project into separate modules to stop the main Twine Editor lagging to death through the size of the project.  I'm glad to say those experiments appear to have worked, so that's one potential future roadblock removed.

You can play the public version of House of Hellish Harlots here:
https://houseofhellishharlots.com/

As always, if you like what you see, you can support the project (and me) on Patreon or SubscribeStar.

The private version is a couple of releases ahead.  Yesterday they received v0.043, which adds two new harlots - the jellyfish girl, Cyane, and the fleshpot pitcher plant girl, Lagona Voluptes.

I have a few more harlots queued up, but I'm about to spend a couple of months writing short stories for a new collection, so those are in the bank to give me material to release over that period.

New(ish) Short Story for Patrons: A Comfy Pink Cushionblob

I've just put out a new(ish) H-space monster girl story for Patreon and SubscribeStar.

One of my current ongoing projects is to take the old H-space Bestiary shorts (you can find them on here if you go back far enough) and spruce them up into "proper" short stories.  This is the "Pink Cushionblob" story.  In this case the new part might apply more than the ish part.  The original was the 3rd in the H-space Bestiary series and barely 1,500 words.  The new one is three times that.  I've bumped up the background lore and aspects of (this) Bate's character.  I also extended the sex scene.

The original was originally in the low priority bucket.  The first few Bestiary shorts don't give me a lot to work with and I'd used a pink cushionblob slime girl already in the Volumpula CYOA.  (And a story I've had stuck in progress for a long while also features one.)

It was a little fiddly to update, almost being a complete rewrite.

Yes, it is currently paywalled on Patreon/SubscribeStar.  Writer have to pay bills.

I've updated a few of these now, with more on the way, so there is a decent chance they will be collected together into a themed ebook collection at some point.

Anyway, new(ish) story "A Comfy Pink Cushionblob".

You can find it here on Patreon.

And here on SubscribeStar.

Harlot Art - Mademoiselle Vête Piège

Here is some more lovely harlot art, this time of the lovely, refined and not at all dangerous (*ahem*) Mademoiselle Vête Piège.

This is courtesy of my patron, Atlantis 27, who commissioned artist Thraeh for the pieces and was kind enough to let me share them here.

More of Thraeh's work can be found on DeviantArt here:

https://www.deviantart.com/thraeh 

I like the contrast between her sophisticated clothed look and coquettish naked look on the bed.  And remember the rules with Vête Piège - on top of the bed, not in-between the sheets!

Hentai Game Review: Mage Kanade's Futanari Dungeon Quest

I've reviewed a fair few Dieselmine H-games over the years, most prominently the Violated Hero series.  They were always light on gameplay and usually pretty good on art.  Nowadays they seem to be in a really weird place.  They probably have one of the most gifted smut artists/animators around, L Buffer, working for them, but don't really seem to know what to do with him.

Unlike its predecessor, A Lose Hero in the Castle of the Succubi, which was pretty much a glorified gallery where you walked from H-scene to H-scene, Mage Kanade's Futanari Dungeon Quest is technically a game, just about.  You have an attack button, a dodge button, and have to navigate fights and timed puzzles.

I'm not into futa, so originally didn't have much interest in this.  Then I saw some clips floating around on porn sites and was lured in.  What can I say, I have a weakness for sexy squishy slime girls.

They got me.  They knew my weakness...

The one area I'm sort of okay with futa is futa protagonists having their 'weak point' targeted by sexy (and importantly, non-futa) succubi and monster girls.  And in this, the protagonist is pretty much functionally a dude with how the various monster girls treat them.  I suspect the only reason they made the protagonist a futa is to double up on the ryona audience by showing a sexy chick with big tits getting slimed.

That's one of the features of the game.  There is a large panel on the right that shows the negative statuses currently affecting the protagonist.

I played this untranslated, so I'm not 100% on the plot.  A sexy female wizard chases a succubus to some ruins.  After entering she gets tricked and hit by some magic that gives her a cock.  Then she has to navigate her way past various erotic traps and monster girls that are bent on wanking her into a stupor.

Not the boooooobs!

The game is quite inventive on that, to be fair.  The first level has you trying to avoid gas and boob traps while fighting off disembodied wank hands and paizuri tits.  The second is full of lascivious slime.  The game gets across the theme of an erotic trap dungeon fairly well and the boss fights are pretty good.  By the 4th level it starts to become obvious the devs are running out of steam.  The traps and timed puzzles go away and are replaced with lazy battles versus hordes of horny bunny girls.  The 5th is a replay of the boss fights, but with the 'lead' succubus of the level involved directly.

As with a lot of Dieselmine games, there is a lack of ambition.  The early levels and boss fights are pretty good, but it's very short and feels more like a demo or proof of concept.

Art is variable.  The L Buffer animations are excellent as always.  I was less impressed with Bad End H-scenes.  The art on those was a little too cartoony and the proportions on some of the succubi ended up looking weirdly grotesque rather than sexy.

Sorry luv, you're just not my type.

As with most of the recent Dieselmine succubus and monster girl games, it's pretty much a showcase gallery for L Buffer's talents.  Those are good as always, but the whole thing is probably a little on the pricy side for what you get.  It's a shame Dieselmine can't seem to put those talents to better use.  Other devs would salivate at the prospect of having this sprite work in their games.

(If I could get a artist/animator as good as this to provide some graphics for The House of Hellish Harlots...)

The erotic traps are interesting, at least for the early levels.  I'm currently brainstorming a SexDungeon project for #Dungeon23 over on Patreon (and SubscribeStar).  This has given me a few ideas for things to work in, like the Boob "Wall of Death".  Mage Kanade's Futanari Dungeon Quest is maybe a little expensive for what it is, but it's fun and given me a few ideas, so checking it out was not a complete waste.

Beware the "Wall of Boob"...

Milking Farm is probably still the peak of the L Buffer/Dieselmine era, even if that also only had rudimentary run 'n' hide gameplay.

House of Hellish Harlots website is fixed?

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... 

House of Hellish Harlots Website still not updating

Yup, I'm aware of it.

I can see the lack of updating on my backup laptop, so I can at least track the problem now (rather than being in blissful ignorance as it looks fine on my regular computer).

I phoned the contest host people on Friday, but whatever they tried doesn't appear to have worked, so I'll keep pestering them today and over the week until it's fixed.

While I was mucking around with the website, I made a few updates.  More on that when people can actually see them!

For now I see many phone calls and waiting on hold in my future. :'(

Still Working on House of Hellish Harlots Update Problem

This one still has me baffled.  I managed to bring a geriatric old laptop out of decommission, so I'm seeing what everyone else is seeing - the Changelog has updated to v0.038, but pressing "play" loads up v0.037.

I've tried flushing the cache on wordpress and a temporary kludge fix of creating a new page to hold the embedded twine.  Neither seems to have worked, so I'm scratching my head.

I'll keep at it and see if I can get this fixed.  Any helpful comments that have an idea of what the problem might be are much appreciated.

ETA: Still mystified.  Tried flushing the cache.  Tried switching CDN on and off.

It doesn't appear to be just the play game section.  I made some further updates to the changelog page to fix the background image in place.  That doesn't show up on my other laptop either.  At the moment it seems like every change isn't being propagated out and I have no idea why.

I'll keep working on it.

Try Again with House of Hellish Harlots - This Time to v0.039

Okay, something seems to have gone wrong with the last public update of House of Hellish Harlots.  Enough people have reported only seeing v0.037, so it looks like something didn't go through.

I'm still not entirely sure what's gone wrong.  I did notice that Elementor appears to have taken control of the shortcode text box I was using to load in the embedded Twine .html, which it wasn't before.

I've tried updating to v0.039 (just the embedded file, not the changelog).

I now see v0.039 when I load up https://houseofhellishharlots.com/ and hit play.  What do you see?

Are People Having Problems with the new House of Hellish Harlots v0.038 Release?

I thought I'd make a post on this as I've received multiple comments on it.

If you check the House of Hellish Harlots website and hit play, are you seeing v0.037 or v0.038?

https://houseofhellishharlots.com/game/

On the 1st of the month I did as I always do, uploaded v0.038 and hit update, then deleted v0.037 from the file system (because the game file is pretty big).  When I check, I see v0.038.

A lot of people are reporting they're only seeing v0.037.  I don't know if this problem is still occurring or what might have caused it.

Anyone with more web experience know what it might be?

(My guess would be people are seeing an old version cached somewhere, but my web-design-fu isn't good enough to be 100% on it.)

House of Hellish Harlots v0.038

A new month, a new House of Hellish Harlots release.

The public website demo is now up to v0.038.

This adds:
- New Harlot: The energy bunny Leppi Navitas.
- Repeat visit functionality for Succuba.
- Amoura D'Coeur's much more dangerous repeat visit scenario.

The second half of Amoura D'Couer's scenario is something I know people have been waiting for for a while, so I hope it delivers.

As always, the public demo can be found on the website here:
https://houseofhellishharlots.com/

If you want to support the project and my other writing, I have a Patreon and SubscribeStar.  Subscribers there get new versions two months early and can influence the order new harlots get added with semi-regular polls.

They were given v0.040 yesterday, a small update that adds one new harlot - Hati Krim.  She's a blue-skinned alien (-looking) babe that specialises in erotic cream massage.

This is a small update.  Currently I'm running into issues with the project being so big the Twine Editor lags.  Until I've solved that, I'll be putting out single-harlot release and then hoping to catch up later in the year.

I hope you enjoy playing with the new harlots.  Leppi is very appropriate for the year of the rabbit and reasonably friendly in comparison to the others.

House of Hellish Harlots v0.037

Happy New Year!

New year, new release.

The public demo version of House of Hellish Harlots has been updated to v0.037.  You can play it here:
https://houseofhellishharlots.com/

I was busy that month writing the "In The Red Light Backrooms" (long) short story, so this is a fairly short update that adds one new harlot to the House.

Ch'oojrana
She is a blue-skinned suckerboob (they originally appeared in a H-space Bestiary short).  Her name describes pretty much what she is and does.  Don't be fooled by her friendly disposition.  How to survive her is fairly cryptic, so expect to be drained to death by her lovely boobs more than once.

Patreon and SubscribeStar are two releases ahead.  I dropped v0.039 on them last night.  After a couple of lean monthly releases I spent more time on HoHH in December.  v0.039 adds 3 new harlots - the black and red artificial being 'symbiotes' Negralima-V and N-Carnizadalama, and the dancing lamia Cerastesia.

Overall 2022 felt pretty good for me writing-wise.  House of Hellish Harlots has turned out to be a much bigger project than originally intended, but I've kind of accepted that and just kept plugging away at it in a reasonably disciplined manner.  It now has 64 harlots in there, and each scenario is about the same length as a regular short story.  That's a lot of sexy succubi and monster girls!

After Excessica closed down, I republished all my old ebooks under my own personal account with new covers.  It was good to get them back up.  I still need to make those available as paperbacks, so hopefully early in 2023.  The same for a 7th collection.  I need to write 4 new stories.  That didn't quite happen at the end of 2022 as I got distracted and wrote "In The Red Light Backrooms" instead.  On the positive side, that means less stories needed for 8th/9th collections, but I would like to get a 7th collection out ASAP.  It has been a while since I've put a new book out.

Anyway, we're now in 2023 and I hope it will be wonderful for everyone!

House of Hellish Harlots v0.036

It's time for another release. The public website version has been updated to v0.036.

You can play it here: https://houseofhellishharlots.com/

This only adds one new harlot, but she's a special one.

Succuba
Most harlots only have one sex scene. Succuba was the poll winner of old placeholder names that people wanted to see given a full scenario, so I wanted her to be a little special. As a result she has 10 separate scenes. However, these are fairly short. This fits her in-game lore as being a little too 'efficient' a succubus. Outside of the game lore she serves a mechanical purpose of being another way for players to convert spare semen to coins without worrying too much about getting their soul sucked out. (This will become more relevant once I start opening the demo out to more rounds.)

Patreon and SubscribeStar are 2 releases ahead. They got v0.038 last night. That adds the fitness-freak energy bunny harlot, Leppi Navitas. It also (finally!) adds Amoura D'Coeur's long-awaited repeat scenario (where she's considerably more dangerous). Succuba also gains repeat visit functionality, but that's just a minor mechanical tweak that has no changes to her core scenario (she's not one to remember the men she has fun with!).

(Obviously, if you like how the project is going, I'd appreciate some support there!)

Hentai Game Review: Shrift 2

The first Shrift was one of those games I always felt I should have reviewed, but never got around to it.  It's a good game and one I'd probably recommend, but I still haven't finished it, so I didn't feel qualified to write a proper review of it.  It's fairly hard, for a H-game, and the idiosyncratic approach to saving meant I kept getting stuck at various points and putting the game down.

Now to the sequel, Shrift 2, which is thankfully much easier and overall feels like a much more polished game.  This one I did complete... sort of.

First up, let's get some important things out of the way.

Shadow cowgirl

Okay, let's go right to the art style.  It's idiosyncratic.  Personally, I think it's improved from the previous game, but it will be a barrier for some people, especially if you prefer your porn games to have graphics similar to the lifelike 3D models of the many adult games on Steam.  Personally I think it's the animations and how the characters move with the sex combat that makes it work, but that won't hold for everyone.  I'd recommend giving the free demo a look to see if it works.  You'll know fairly quickly whether it hits the spot or not.

The next is how the game handles saving.  As with the first game, which (I think) was influenced by Undertale, there is meta-weirdness going on.  Unlike typical RPGs, you can't just rewind to a previous save point.  Whatever you put the player character through will be preserved between save states.  I found this out the hard way after letting the character get comprehensively sex-drained, loading a previous save and then finding out the character still had all the levels lost and a pile of negative status ailments from his 'fun times'.  At the time I didn't know how to recover from that and was forced to start again.  Thankfully, after getting more familiar with the game, this isn't that much of a problem.  Levels are easy to regain and most ailments go away with a good night's sleep.  The hotel the main monster girls end up in also gives you the opportunity to re-experience the sexy times without having to go back to a previous save, but I think the game could benefit from a similar monsterpedia re-fight option (at the relevant power level) the original Monmusu Quest has.  That's mainly because I like being legitimately surprised and beaten by the monster girls' sexy moves rather than taking the begging option to experience them.

She's about to give you a very big slurp

The last is that the game isn't complete yet.  You get part one, with parts two and three (and maybe more) coming later as free (I think) updates.  This was how it worked with the original Shrift and the dev did deliver on that, so they probably will again.  As it is, the game still has plenty of content for a H-game, so don't let that hold you back from diving in right away.  There's about 7-8 hours here, probably more if you want to grind up to unlocking all the H scenes.

With those caveats out of the way, let's get onto the game proper.

I played this one using Textractor for machine translation and was able to stumble to the 'end' after looking some things up on the ULMF forum.

The setup is you're an apprentice priest tasked with clearing out demons.  You pick up a sexy shadow girl companion early on and then find out you have a weird symbol on your hand that allows you pick up more demon girl companions after you defeat them.  There is also plenty of other glitchy weirdness going on that hints of larger revelations later.  I have a feeling this might be linked to the original Shrift as some sort of prequel, but bear in mind I'm going off machine translation, so my understanding is fairly sketchy at best.

Standard RPGmaker Church

The game world consists of a town hub with various locations to visit.  More are opened up later (including a hotel to house your growing harem of demon girl companions).  The locations are divided between your typical shops, dungeons (of which there are 3), and quest locations needing to be visited to advance the overall plot.  The plot is advanced through main quests (mostly) given out by the nun character in the church.  There are also various side quests which can be given out by the nun or NPCs in the game world.  Some are the typical recurring 'fetch X of thing' side quests while others unlock additional demon girl companions.  There is also a day/night cycle with the player character moving it along with each place they visit.

Town Hub

Rather than typical RPG-maker navigation, the dungeons are rendered in classic 'blobber' style as pseudo-3D mazes with wandering monsters (similar to the original Dungeon Master if you're really really old).  Unlike the previous game, the majority of these monsters are regular RPG combat encounters with no H-content.  Normally I don't like this in H-games, but it doesn't get in the way too much.  If you do get level-drained to 1, it's fairly easy to blast through one of the dungeons and get right back up to around 20 or so again.  There is a grind element, but it's not as bad as other games.

In a dungeon

Then there is the sexy H-content fights or 'temptation battles'.  The game solves the habitual realism problems of how to have sexy combat when one side is fighting with regular weapons by having your main offensive move be 'praying'.  This is based on a Faith stat, which also doubles up as HP.  You also (later) have access to magic attacks.  There's a nice balancing act going on here.  The regular faith attacks are based upon how much faith (or HP) you have.  In contrast, magic attacks do damage based on how low your faith is.  Because this is a sexy combat H-game, you also have a lust bar.  Let that get too high and you'll be rendered helpless while your opponent has 'fun' with you.

I don't think this is going to be a 'clean' fight

The mechanics deserve special mention as I think the Shrift 2 dev might have solved one of the main issues with this type of game, especially when the succubi and monster girls have level-drain moves.  Because it's a H-game, you want the monster girls to do sexy things to you.  But if you let the monster girls do sexy things to you, you end up losing progress to Game Overs and losing levels that have to be ground back up again.  With Shrift 2, getting drained is also a form of character progression.  The demon girls are slotted in as interchangeable companions and they aid you during fights with special moves.  They are levelled up by... ahem... sucking levels out of you.  Getting drained also generates SP (sacrifice points), which are then used to unlock skills and passive abilities on a separate skill tree.  It's an interesting approach.  The game is currently easy enough (after my experiences with the first game and knowing I was going to be fumbling with machine translation, I pussied out and picked EASY difficulty) that I found I didn't really have to use the skill tree much, but there are definitely some ideas there I've filed away for future reference.  I definitely wouldn't mind playing around with some of these concepts for a succubus H-game.

A lizard girl's best attempt to look human (while fucking your brains out)

Now for the all-important H-content.  I found 8 separate monster girls and 2 'squeezing' monsters (non-human monster monsters that have sex attacks).  Going back to that idiosyncratic word again, Shrift 2 is very idiosyncratic with the monster designs.  Maybe more so than games like Monmusu Quest, where the monster girls nearly always had recognisably human faces and tits no matter how weird and monstrous the rest of them was.  Shrift 2 has a broad range, probably too broad for most people.  As with the first game, I found the monsters to be a mix of ones I really liked and hit the spot, and others I noped away from as fast as possible.  There's a bit of furry in there.  Scaly too.  And whatever the moth girl counts as.  As long as you find a couple you like, they have such a range of H-scenes you'll probably find enough content to make the game enjoyable even if you find some of the others boner killers.

(Personally, I really liked the shadow girl and siren.)

The last fight with the siren also deserves special mention.  Up until then the fights are mostly typical HRPG battles.  The siren fight brings in more Undertale-style elements with mini-game segments where the player's soul has to dodge hearts thrown at it.  Very creative and well-implemented and I hope we see more like that in future instalments.

Right from the h... humongous boobs

The game also has compatibility support for a sex toy (Vorze A10 Piston SA, I think), where it will 'squeeze' you in time to the on-screen action.  I can't comment on that as I don't own that particular toy, but it sounds a fun idea.

(No Hydra, do not entertain ideas of letting one of your succubi have access to that.)

Overall, if you can handle the various idiosyncrasies, it's worth a look.

I'll post a rough guide on how to play sometime next week if there's interest.

Public Demo Version of "House of Hellish Harlots" Updated to v0.035

It's been a slightly busy and chaotic October.  I wasn't going to write a story for Literotica's Halloween contest, then I was, which I didn't finish in time for the deadline, but did finish and post for Halloween anyway.

I also found time to get a new "House of Hellish Harlots" release out.  This is v0.037 and adds 1 new harlot - the blue-skinned suckerboob, Ch'oojrana.  That is currently only available on Patreon or SubscribeStar.

However, it also means an update to the public website version of "House of Hellish Harlots" (which can be visited here).

That has been updated to v0.035.  Two new harlots went out with that release:

Pavitra Titalee

She's an unusual butterfly girl. Don't pay too much attention to her "only take what is freely given" talk. She's Tier 3, which means she's probably going to kill you. A lot.

Epicratea (The Ebony Succubus)

Epicratea is one of my existing characters from a previous short story ("Oil Wrestling a Succubus"). Her speciality is femdom oil wrestling, so expect her to try out a few 'special' holds on you.

I hope you enjoy 'playing' with them.

And if you enjoy this project, please consider supporting me on Patreon or SubscribeStar.  We're up to 60 sexy monster girl harlots now and I'm hoping to push the number of playable rounds up to 9 very soon.

New Story - "In The Red Light Backrooms"

And the new story is up.  Literotica were quicker to approve it than I was expecting, which is great as it's in perfect time for Halloween weekend.  Here it is:

In The Red Light Backrooms

I was aiming for more conventional spooks and scares, so the dial of Erotic Horror is turned more towards the Horror/Weird end.  There is a nice succubus sex scene, so I didn't leave the erotica off entirely.  The story is inspired by the Backrooms stuff, but only the basic idea.  It's not intended to use, adapt or extend any of the existing lore.  If somebody wants to take the idea and run with it further, feel free (just age gate it appropriately!).

I hope you enjoy it.
Happy Halloween!

New Short Story on the way - "In The Red Light Backrooms"

I have been working on a new short story for Halloween.  It was originally intended for Literotica's Halloween contest, but it ended up being a little longer than I anticipated (over 10K words) and I couldn't finish it in time.  It is finished now.

It's set in Amsterdam's red light district and influenced by the Backrooms stuff.  By influenced, I mean the first principles concept of someone clipping out of reality and being trapped in a weird place.  The Backrooms itself seems to be one of those big shared internet lore things (like the SCP foundation) and I know very little about it other than the general idea and some youtube short films.  It seemed a cool concept, and fired up the inspiration for this little tale.

Here's a teaser:

Damien Kane and Chris Abbott noclipped out of reality on an otherwise unremarkable summer morning at precisely 11:01.  The where from was a corner of De Walletjes, more infamously known as Amsterdam's main red-light district.  Damien and Chris were there—and let's not beat about the bush—to get laid.

As for the where to...

The corridor of doors stretched off into the distance before turning to the left.  Around that corner would be another long corridor of doors leading to another left turn.  Sometimes it would turn to the right.  Sometimes—more rarely—it would end in a T-junction.  It never opened back out onto the street outside.  If there was even an outside.

The corridor was narrow and claustrophobic, with a low ceiling.  The floor was covered in thick linoleum—mushy and slightly tacky.  The air carried the tang of stale sweat, cheap perfumes, and—beneath it all—a hint of something far less pleasant.  It called to mind sordid and illicit pleasures.  Illumination came from fluorescent tubes above the doors.  They washed everything in a wan glow—sometimes red, sometimes pink.

If the lights dimmed, you ran.

If the lights flickered, you ran fast.

Each door had a large glass window.  For most of them a red velvet curtain was pulled across to hide the room on the other side.  For some that curtain was pulled back to reveal a feminine figure dressed only in lingerie.  Always attractive.  Always sexy.  Never human.

Damien remembered the words of the Irishman.

"You have to pick a door, but it has to be the right door."

How do you know if it's the right door?

"Do you think I'd still be here if I knew that!"

Damien hadn't seen the Irishman in some time.  Maybe he'd found the right door.  More likely he'd walked through the wrong door and never returned.

Damien heard a wet snuffling phlegmy sound.  Far off behind him... for now.

Time to move on.

The story is finished.  I've submitted it to Literotica and it will probably appear there in a few days (usually about 3)

If you don't want to wait, I've already posted the completed story to Patreon and SubscribeStar.  Subscription to either is for the low low price of $1 per month and you'll also get a new "House of Hellish Harlots" update at the end of every month as well (two months before it goes live on the public website).

Art of Sapoonismenee Nerei (from House of Hellish Harlots)

Here is the second piece of art I had commissioned.

This is the soapy nereid, Sapoonismenee Nerei.  She is another of the harlots that can be found in "The House of Hellish Harlots".  Her speciality is soapy massages, but handle her with care!

The public demo is still text-only, but you can play it here.  Sapoonis was the first harlot added.  There have been a lot more since then (nearly 60!) and it's turned into a slightly more complex project than I originally intended.

The artist is again Marwmellow.  You can find more of their work here.

The money for the commission came out of my Patreon subs.  If you'd like to see more, or just want to support my writing in general, you can support me on Patreon.  And now also on SubscribeStar.

Art of Sorpresa Ombra (from House of Hellish Harlots)

Let's start the first week of October with something nice.

This is Sorpresa Ombra.  She's one of the harlots that can be found within the "House of Hellish Harlots" (the public demo of which can be played here).  She specialises in smothering men between those lovely big boobs of hers.

The artist is marwmellow and you can find other examples of their work here.

After seeing how Queen Colubridis turned out, I ran a poll for patrons to pick the next harlot to have art created for and Sorpresa was the winner of that.  She turned out really nice, I think.  Sinuously seductive.

Public Demo Version of "House of Hellish Harlots" Updated to v0.034

In a nice problem for a content creator to have, I have a couple of new(ish) things coming out at the same time.

First up, the last of my old collections, "A Succubus for Saint Patrick's Day", is back up and available to buy as an ebook.  Check the previous post for more details on that.

Because it's a new month, we also have the regular upgrade to the "House of Hellish Harlots" interactive fiction project.  The public website version has been updated to v0.034.  This adds two new harlots:

Huntress Levka (and her 'hounds' Minyette and Zhopa)
This is Huntress 2.  When creating the 'wrestling' faction, I had the idea for a trio of huntress scenarios similar to the 3 Pels of the artificial being faction.  Like Diana, Levka wants you to 'fight' her hounds.  Unlike Diana, she has two of them.

The two 'hounds', Minyette and Zhopa, are primitive lust daemons (but still clearly sapient despite being used as 'hunting hounds').  I took a little inspiration from GW's Slaanesh demons for their design, but made them a little less spiky and also more explicit in what they can do.

Levka was originally a big muscular oni, but trying to write her with Russian 'hulkspeak' just didn't work at all.  I think the huntress lore I created with Diana seems to have been well-received, so it made more sense to make Levka a slightly wilder member of the same hunting manor.

Huntress Levka is intended as a Tier 2 harlot, but towards the bottom end in difficulty (round 6 or 7).

L'iaculatia
This is the dodgeball arachne.  Her scenario takes some ideas from the old "Escape the Arachne" CYOA, but is completely rewritten and with a different character.

She references quite a few stats, but it's mostly behind scenes.  She will probably be a Tier 1 harlot, but is borderline between Tier 1 & 2.  She has a few stat checks, but there are multiple ways to make them easier.

L'iaculatia was another weird one to type up.  On my side it looks like a ton of variations, but as the tests are done behind scenes, the player will mostly be reading and pressing continue.  I'm still iffy on this as a design philosophy.  It made sense for the early design, but the scenarios were intended to be a lot shorter.

You can play the public demo version here at
https://houseofhellishharlots.com/

Patrons are two releases ahead.  I gave them v0.036 at the end of the month.  This only adds one new harlot, Succuba, but she's a very versatile succubus with 10 different sex scenes.  I wouldn't say she's 10-harlots-in-1 as her scenes are deliberately quite short, but at 9,000 words she's one of the longer harlot scenarios.

You can find the Patreon release here.

I also know some people won't or can't use Patreon, so I've also opened up an alternative subscription source at SubscribeStar.  This will receive the same updates and releases as Patreon.  The only exception is the polls, as I don't currently have enough subscribers to justify it (and will change the moment I get enough subscribers to justify it).

You can find the SubscribeStar release here.

And because this weekend isn't busy enough, I've also had some commissioned artwork come back.  Because I don't want things getting lost in a flurry of posts, I'll be showing that off next week.

I hope you enjoy the new HoHH release!

"A Succubus for Saint Patrick's Day" is out!

It's (re)publication day!

My 6th collection of erotic horror short stories, A Succubus for Saint Patrick's Day and other tales of Sinister Sirens, is back up and available to buy as an ebook.  You can find it at these ebook retailers:

(And to show I'm getting better with practise, I managed to get the ebook out on all of them on the right day!)

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/books/details/M_E_Hydra_A_Succubus_for_Saint_Patrick_s_Day?id=VsaPEAAAQBAJ

Here's the usual blurb:

Who is the lucky one – the man given sensual pleasure beyond his dreams, or the succubus that ensnares and drains him?

Dangerous and delectable sirens abound in M. E. Hydra’s sixth collection of horror erotica.  Within these pages you’ll find thirteen tales that will tempt, tease, titillate and terrify.  Read and enjoy as dark temptresses weave their seductive webs and draw in their (un)fortunate prey.

In “A Succubus for Saint Patrick’s Day” a down-on-his-luck gambler thinks his fortune has changed when a magical succubus comes to his aid.  A strange agency provides an unusual service in “The High-School Sweetheart Removal Agency”.  A researcher has a dangerous and highly sensual encounter with an alien creature in “A Real-Life Goo Girl”.  In “Number 66” an expat searches for an unusual girl in the fleshpots of Bangkok.  An accomplished thief falls prey to a shadowy guardian in “Rogue vs Lamia”.  A rich man gets the bigger dick he’s always wanted in “Crabs”, only to discover the treatment has some alarming side effects.  And finally, a young man gets a surprise when he tries to rape the wrong victim in “Joe Boyega Picks a Bad Night to Become a Rapist”.

They'll give you pleasures beyond your wildest dreams, and terrors beyond your darkest nightmares...

This is the last of the ebooks that needed republishing after my previous publisher closed at the end of last year.  As with the others, I've given it a new cover and added an afterword that gives a behind-scenes look at how the stories were written.

Some of the stories (in slightly rougher form) can already be found online on places like Literotica.  To make the collections worth buying, I always add some stories that can't be found anywhere else.  This includes the eponymous story "A Succubus for Saint Patrick's Day", where the nameless succubus from the succubus tablet is sowing chaos again. "A Special Tube of Lube" is a new story with Eryx and Eunectes and calls back to their first appearance as they return to collect a debt. I try again to write pulp fantasy with "Rogue vs Lamia".  "Crabs" has appeared in another anthology, but you can enjoy it in all its nastiness here.  There's also the obligatory Nicole story (with a title that got me in trouble at Kobo), plus a couple of other original stories (one of which with a title that is clearly too long, but also throws some hints as to what the witch Annette Brite is up to with her succubi).

This is the 6th and last of my old collections.  All of my books are now back on sale.  The next time I make one of these posts it will be for a brand new collection.  The 7th collection is currently in progress and hopefully I'll be able to unveil that soon.

In the meantime, A Succubus for Saint Patrick's Day is (back) out today and I hope you enjoy reading it!

"A Succubus for Saint Patrick's Day" is up for pre-order

And we're onto the last of my old erotic horror short story collections.  A Succubus for Saint Patrick's Day and other tales of Sinister Sirens is now up for pre-order.  You can find it at these online booksellers (more to be added).

(Kobo is slightly delayed.  I think one of their Millennial interns saw one of the story titles and had a fit of the vapours.  Currently trying to get that fixed.)

Here's the usual blurb:

This the last of the ebooks needing republishing.  As with the others it has a new cover and afterword.  While some of the stories are up on Literotica, these are the finalised versions and as with the others, there are plenty of stories that can only be found in this collection (such as the eponymous "A Succubus for Saint Patrick's Day")

Official release date is Sep 30th.  I hope you all enjoy reading it.

"A Succubus for Remembrance" is out!

It's another publication day!

My 5th collection of erotic horror short stories, A Succubus for Remembrance and other tales of Femme Fatales, is back up as an ebook.

You can pick it up from these ebook retailers.

Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Succubus-Remembrance-other-tales-Fatales-ebook/dp/B0BCDT1BB6

Kobo: https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/a-succubus-for-remembrance-1

Barnes and Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/a-succubus-for-remembrance-me-hydra/1142100379

Apple: https://books.apple.com/gb/book/a-succubus-for-remembrance/id6443337953

And the usual blurb:

Think paranormal erotica is only about sparkly vampires and fluffy werewolves?  Think again!  You’re about to enter the bizarre and twisted universe of M. E. Hydra.  His sexy succubi and other assorted femme fatales will give you a wild ride, but be careful they don’t eat you whole in the process.

This, his fifth collection, contains thirteen tales of darkest erotica.  A terrifying succubus wreaks vengeance on a group of former soldiers in “A Succubus for Remembrance”.  A man is sent by his therapist to an unusual nudist camp in “Iron Girders and Steel Springs”.  Two lovers look to a magical artefact to solve their problems in “The Skinning Knife”.  A sinister mobster engages sexy diabolic help to demonstrate “Ways to Break a Good Man, #1” (and no.2 and 3).  Bizarre and imaginative sex demons abound in a triptych of tales set in the hell-space universe.  Also includes an extra bonus tale, “Nazi vs Succubus,” for lovers of extreme, no-holds-barred fiction.

You will be surprised, shocked and aroused by these and other tales of fiendish femme fatales.  They'll give you pleasures beyond your wildest dreams, and terrors beyond your darkest nightmares...

This is the 5th of 6 collections I'm currently republishing after my previous publisher closed down last year.  To mark the occasion I've redone the covers and added an afterword with additional commentary on the stories.  If you already have the original, you probably don't need this, but I'm not going to say no to the extra royalties if someone wants to pick them up to support my writing.

Some of these stories are up on places like Literotica.  The versions in the ebook can be considered final(ish) edits.  As always there are some stories that don't show up anywhere else.  "A Succubus for Remembrance" is a slightly different take on the usual succubus tablet story.  "The Skinning Knife" originally showed up in one of Excessica's anthology and is a different type of horror story to my usual work.  "Hugh the Hero" closes out a triptych of hell-space stories.  "Slugjob" is... I have no idea what I was thinking there.  There are also two more "Ways to Break a Good Man" stories, although they're not connected apart from the title similarities.  Lastly, there's "Nazi vs Succubus".

I don't normally do the warning thing, but "Nazi vs Succubus" is pretty 'no-holds-barred' even for me.  If you read my stories mainly for the erotica content rather than the horror, I'd skip that one.

It's out now.  If you haven't already, I hope you enjoy 13 more tales of sexy succubi and monster girls.

Many-Eyed Hydra is on SubscribeStar!

I hope.

I think I've set it up okay, but there's always a chance I might have boomered something up.

I've been meaning to do this for a while and finally got around to it.  I know some people would like to support me, but have either ethical or technical problems with Patreon.  Given that Patreon has deplatformed people in the past with minimal warning, I felt it was also important to have a backup just in case their Trust & Safety Team decides to get Orwellian again.

I'm not sure how it will work out.  I'd like to give it a couple of months to see what they're like in terms of ease of payouts, etc.  If you're already on Patreon, don't jump across just yet.  If you're not but would like to support me (and receive early looks at new stories and game releases), I hope SubscribeStar meets your needs.

Currently, I've just added the latest "House of Hellish Harlots" release (v0.035).

Going forward I'm just going to be mirroring posts so both Patreon and SubscribeStar get the same posts and attachments.  You won't need to subscribe to both.

(I have no idea how I'm going to manage polls across the two sites.  Combine the numbers?)

Anyway, it's another funding option, and diversifying income sources seems pretty important nowadays.

Here's my SubscribeStar page:

Let me know if there are any obvious screwups.

Public Demo Version of "House of Hellish Harlots" Updated to v0.033

This is a short update that just adds the one new harlot - Kiki Sumoppai.  Unfortunately that month coincided with the battles with Amazon KDP's Content Review Team to get my short story collections republished, so I wasn't as free to devote as much time to HoHH as I'd have liked.

Here are some details on the new harlot:

Kiki Sumoppai
Known rather unflattering as 'Gas Balloon Tits Wrestler' until I gave her a proper name, she's a big-titted bimbo succubus that specialises in erotic 'wrestling'.  Wrestling gets the scare quotes for reasons you'll understand when you play her scenario.

She's intended as a Tier 3 harlot in terms of difficulty, which means she's very hard to survive.  You'll need some outside help to return from her room.

The public version of "House of Hellish Harlots" can be played here:
https://houseofhellishharlots.com/

Patreon is now two versions ahead at v0.035.  After all the problems with Amazon, I tried to make up for it with a very busy August.  That resulted in a v0.034 release containing the two harlots I couldn't finish in time for the end of July release (Huntress Levka and the arachne L'iaculatia).  I was also able to get two more harlots added in time for an end of August release (butterfly girl Pavitra Titalee and another erotic wrestler readers might remember from one of my short stories - Epicratea, the Ebony Succubus).

I'll be maintaining a two month gap between the public and Patreon releases from now on.  Living costs are going up and creator needs to pay his bills.

If you want the latest version and wish to support the project, you can find it here on my patreon.  All support gratefully received!

Whew.  That's been a busy couple of days.  I think I've even caught up on comments as well.

I hope you enjoy playing with all the lovely harlots HoHH has to offer.

(try not to die a horrible death.)

As you might have seen from all the recent posts, I'm republishing all my old short story collections with new covers and an afterword giving some insight on how the stories came to be written.

While most of them can be found up on Literotica, these are the finalised versions (after a thorough edit).  There are also some stories that can only be found in this collection such as the eponymous "A Succubus for Remembrance" and the (probably) too-extreme-for-Literotica "Nazi vs Succubus".

The official release date is Sep 9th.
