Thanks, I also lost my save and was gonna ask for one too, but where do I put that? I can't find the right folder.
"saves" folder in the main directory [I provided screenshot just in case] , if you don't see it boot up the game and make a save then check again.

Make sure to right-click and 'save as' the file from my post to keep the '.save' file type.

That save is missing some of the Amy chastity belt scenes cuz I skipped them but nothing else that I'm aware of.

What happened to Olivia? I don't remember any scenes with her after her introduction.
She hasn't had any focus yet. There are a lot of characters stories still awaiting development. She has been involved in a couple of side scenes as part of a larger ensemble though I believe. The showers and early part of the Mole Rat story ring a bell.

been follow this game long time a few years and i need to know will the game finish before i got married and have kid and then the kid grow up ?
Probably not. You need to run some numbers to see it.

I've been following this game since June 2020, and I was a patron for some time. Back in June 2020, the game was in Chapter 2, and today, after five years, it's still in Chapter 2. Considering that there will likely be Chapters 3 and 4, plus probably 1-2 more updates for Chapter 2, this suggests a development timeline of more than another 10 years.

But when you look at the details, it gets much worse:

- Debbie, Cassandra, Amy, Priti, Faye, the Twins, Alice, and Liz still don’t have their punishment systems completed. I don’t remember exactly what level each girl is at, but the last four are very low.
- If an update adds new levels for the girls, it usually includes around 3 levels.
- Liz, Faye, the Twins, and Alice still need around 9 more levels each.
- Debbie, Cassandra, Amy, and Priti likely need about 3 more levels each (I don’t remember exactly).
- This adds up to around 48 levels, and I’m not even counting Zoe.
- 48 / 3 = 16 updates.
- The average update cycle is 9 months, which means 12 more years of development just to raise the levels. And keep in mind that The HM isn’t just about leveling up—there are tons of loose ends.

My advice: don’t wait for the end credits.

I’ll tell you what I think. Ten years in IT is an entire epoch. I work in IT, so I know what I’m talking about. No one develops a game for that long (except adult game creators) because a game can become obsolete before it’s even released. AAA developers often cancel projects that drag on for too long because they know that by the time they finish, the engine, graphics, and mechanics might already be outdated. And here we have a niche game that could take another decade—when it’s already a bit outdated

No one knows what game development will look like in 2035, but my guess is that AI models will be extremely advanced by then (it’s honestly a little terrifying how fast they’re evolving). You’ll probably just be able to prompt:
"Hey, do you see this game? It only has 3 chapters so far. Can you finish it for me and add Chapters 4 and 5?"
24 hours of waiting, probably some payment, and the AI will reply: "Here you go."
Meanwhile, Altos will still be in the middle of Chapter 4.

If Altos treats this game as his life’s work and has no intention of finishing it, that’s fine—it’s his right. Projects like this can be cool too, but I think creators of such games should clearly state that on their Patreon. There are players (like me) who aren’t interested in games that will never be completed.

Reminds me of Summertime Saga. Adult Game creators drag things out to milk the Patrons. That's why I don't play anymore.
Every time I check up on games I used to play, there's like 0 progress made. Better to save your money

I played this game back in 2021 it was chapter 2, I played it recently, 4y later, and it's still chapter 2. People still giving them money. Easy money, easy life I guess. Game will never be fiinished or even reach some meaningfull progression. :FacePalm:

Whilst I can understand peoples thoughts and fears regarding being milked of money for an unfinished product and I don't want to get into a debate about the merits of one dev over another, please let us not forget that this dev actually releases a complete build, for free, through their Patreon just a month after it is released to Patrons which I would argue undercuts the milking suggestion a little bit.

Not so. There's been tons of additional content added. This game is just on a completely different scale in terms of complexity and cast of characters. Many people support the development of this game because they want quality, not quickly produced, formulaic drivel.
There are plenty of other short & simple games that are done in one, two updates. You go there and let other people decide for themselves if they are being fleeced by this dev...

Sounds like it didn't download correctly. I would suggest getting a downloader, such as Jdownloader2, so that it can verify the file once it is done.

I definitely prefer this style of development to short stories which are done in a heartbeat.

In a well thought out world you can make almost an infinite amount of stories. If the choice is either:

- Start a new game, name your character, learn the mechanics play a couple of hours with a lot of fucking, and then say goodbye to the cast.

or

- Start a game, get involved into every character and learn their quirks, kinks and backstory, have conversations, make choices and have a very long intricate story.

I definitely prefer the lather.

I used the Megadownloader and compared against the same file downloaded from Gofile. Both were broken. I triple checked by re-downloading from Mega. The uploaded file is corrupt.
