So, in the past few months we’ve wrapped up two of the major questlines in Harem Collector, and as always, after a major update goes out, the question becomes, what’s next?
The answer, for the next two months, is pretty simple- the delivery of the prize from Iron Waifu 2019, of course!
The PRINCESS update (working title) is, overall, a celebration of the ever-so-sweet Princess Quinta that has excited people’s imaginations (among other things…) for q...

Hey there friends and supporters, welcome to the v0.42 backer-release, the ROYAL update!
Changes in this version include:
-Two new quests! Finally, you have the opportunity to take back Eastfort, and get your cute princess reward! Quest chain starts by speaking to the Dark Wanderer in your Eastfort home.
-A new investment opportunity not far from Lumberhill! Now you can become a casino owner so you too can take advantage of the gambler’s fallacy ...

As you might have already read from Conash's blog post, the backer release will be pushed back to this Friday, September 26th.
Basically, what we're looking that still needs to be done to make the last bit of the current quest content acceptable is:
-Finish the end of quest dialogue
-Add combat encounters
-Add treasures
While this shouldn't take long to put together, it isn't going to be happening today.
So, instead, please enjoy some little bits of preview artwork, ...

Hey everyone, it’s Conash again giving you another blog post so that NoMoshing doesn’t have as much on his shoulders today, and oh boy has this development cycle not been kind to us. To start off with, we had a malware issue come up on our forums today so if you have have visited the forums in the past 48 hours it’s recommended you run a scan on your computer, then afterwards change your forum password just in case. Next, I am sorry to say bu...

Not very happy where progress on the game is right now. But, what else is new?
As you might have been able to tell by the fact that blog posts the last three weeks have been two posts from Conash and one week of… Conash and I forgetting there had to be a blog post. Also, the schedule on the website never got updated. But, if we were to spend this blog post detailing my many small failures, we’d be here for awhile, so I’ll move on.

Hello there! Conash here, and today I thought I’d talk about my experience with Monster Hunter games, and why it is that I enjoy them and keep referencing it in various discussions, and I promise you that my click-bait title will be explained beyond me finding it amusing.
So, my history with Monster Hunter began with Tri, I had heard good things about the series so when hunting for a new game I decided to pick it up. My older brother loved it, he made som...

Hey there friends and supporters, welcome to the v0.42 mini-release, tentatively titled the ROYAL update!
New things to see include the quest to take back Eastfort, which you can begin by speaking to The Dark Wanderer when he shows up in your Eastfort manor. The other large piece of new content includes the Middle Kingdom’s own casino resort, which you can discover by exploring the round-fort just to the southwest of Lumberhill.
As always, please le...

Man, I really never know how to start off these blog posts… Well, first let me start by saying that the v0.42 mini-release is on it’s way, and should be out to Patreon supporters in a matter of minutes! Anyways, today I wanted to talk about a little viewpoint that I think is very important to remember when it comes to designing enemies and encounters in any sort of game, the sort of idea about how the enemy you face never ‘dies’ but rather ‘transf...

Uh… so I totally forgot to do the blog this week. It’s been kind of an exciting week, so I guess it just got lost in the shuffle.
The new update is coming along. As requested, I’ve been using the new casino-themed assets to make a casino that you can invest it, after completing a bit of an associated quest. The main focus of this month’s development, the quest to take back Eastfort, is progressing pretty steadily as well, hoping to be able to wrap i...

The code-minions have been slaving away dutifully in the bug mines, and thus, we present to you a stronger, better version of the SHOWDOWN release!
All the key changes are bug-related, so if bugs aren't bugging you, please don't feel the need to upgrade.
For those of you struggling with the Hell Library puzzle, we've also included a small quality of life improvement that should make that puzzle less of a drag.

It's finally here!
After a long wait, the final battle between the Hero’s harem and the demon cult plaguing the Middle Kingdom are finally here! Can you overcome the legions of hell and defeat Xaven once and for all?
For everyone who would be upgrading from v0.41.2- this version has the intact Bell art, plus some new sprite assets and a ton of bug fixes that aren't in 41.2, so I think it's well worth upgrading!
Changes in this version:

Quick question: Should I put the Therese dungeon and on-demand scenes on hold in order to squeeze in the sex scene with Queen Melfi next update, or stay the course?

The latest backer release is now at v0.41.2!
The major update here is that Raina now actually acknowledges that you've officially added her to the harem- and there's a new text-only sex scene featuring her as well!

Hey everyone, Conash here! First on the table, backers, the new release is available now, and we managed to get on top of a lot of things this release, way more than we thought we’d accomplish, which is nice! With that said, I’d like to discuss a bit about feedback.
So, I’ve been a bit open about how I’ve changed my mind on the AoE change that I mentioned in my last blog post, so it won’t be coming in anytime soon, but I’d like to mention it and...

Figured I'd try one of those "update titles" because I'm secretly an uncreative fraud who just copies others. Anyway, here's the update!
Changes in this version:
-Two brand-new quests where you finally get to deal with two of Harem Collector’s biggest antagonists, once and for all!
-A new harem girl can be captured and sent to your dungeon, representing the first true monstergirl to appear in the harem in HC!
-Kobolds spotted on the streets and fields of t...

When I was in high school, and started playing AD&D, I had a bit of a struggle with a section of the Dungeon Master’s Guide where it described the idea of “keyed” encounters- encounters that only appear in a given area of a dungeon once certain conditions are met. This was the kind of concept that was simultaneously too simple and too complex to grasp- of course I understood basic causality and was confused as to why the DMG would mention somethin...

Hey, sorry for not updating the blog for a couple weeks. I’ll try to get back on track this Wednesday.
There isn’t any dire reason why I haven’t updated the blog in a while. It’s just fuckass hot in my region right now, and while I have central air, it’s kind of jury-rigged into my 90 year old house, so the second floor has one intake, one outflow, and neither of which are actually in my office.
Because of the heat, I have been focusing on game de...

Here's something I haven't gotten a chance to share in a long while- new music for Harem Collector!
Clara happened to be watching stream yesterday, and I asked her to whip up a quick little bit of creepy pipe organ music for a puzzle I was working on. She obliged, but due to a miscommunication though that I needed a whole track rather than just a few seconds and made this really dramatic organ music.
Not 100% certain where it's going to go just yet, but if you have any suggesti...
