I'm new to playing your game (since last year I've seen gameplays on adult sites but it didn't catch my attention) but I recently saw your trailer on YouTube and decided to give it a try and the truth is I was fascinated with the story, the art, everything in general. But if it's not too much trouble, is it possible that in future updates you could add the Spanish language? I think it would be more comfortable for players who don't speak english, please if possible 🙏🏽
Like I state in the FAQ, it is something we want to do <3
We are just a small team making an indie game so we're trying to navigate getting a translation up and running while still trying to release monthly content :D
Quite understandable given that it is an indie game and that they do everything possible to meet the needs of their players. I hope that sooner or later they will bring an official translation. For now I am using a screen translator but sometimes it makes mistakes. I wish you luck with your development if there is any way I can donate to help you I would be delighted 😁👍🏽
It will be updated on here soon(tm), at this very time it's Patreon and Subscribestar. But there will be a demo here soon for the entire first episode.
I recently finished the old free version of this game before getting in on the patreon, and I fell in love with it. The art is so wonderful, the settings feel so soft and warm, the characters are adorable, and oh my god Hazel is SO CUTE. Thank you for putting this in my life, you sir, are a certified Giga Chad :)
Hi! I played Hazelnut Latte and really enjoyed it. I’d honestly love to be a part of the project if you’re looking for more people to join the team.
I’m a Full-Stack Engineer with around 4.5 years of professional experience. I don’t have much professional game development experience yet, but I’d love to get into it and I’m confident I can pick things up quickly.
Are you currently looking for developers, or would you be open to someone joining the team? :)
This prob sounds really dumb and/ or cringe, but will there be impreg or nts content (preferably at the same time)? I'm getting possible vibes from (no spoilers) the 2 characters near the end of the demo that the conditions are "ripe" to be believable, but I understand if that's not the vision you guys are going for. Just curious
Nts is netorase. It's mostly used in a negative connotation implied cuckoldry but still somehow with the full consent of everyone, so not ntr (netorare).
I assume it's already implied, but in a positive and mutual sense as I saw in the demo's "exclusivity options" between 2 characters and the MC, but i was just curious if there would be a sort of humiliation path or dommy character that Isaac could choose to surrender control of the whole harem or even a few characters over to enthrall over him? Again, only curious.
This game is phenomenal. I'm super invested and enamored by the motives, characters, and personalities of everyone I've encountered and yet to encounter. Best of luck to your project!
It doesn't seem so from the art provided, but are any of the non-gender conforming people masc? Or completely androgynous? Seems like a straight cis dude and a lot of femme-presenting options. I'll find out once I play, but as an agender person this rubs me the wrong way superficially.
Lots of femme presenting guys but there are also trans women, a trans guy, and someone non binary with more planned as we get further into development :)
Sorry if you already answered this, but if you did I couldn't find it. Why won't you be including an option for a non-cis MC (femboy, trans, etc)? I tried playing the demo about a year ago and just couldn't continue due to dysphoria. Don't ask me why it is, but video games always do this to me. In real life, I have never cared about what pronouns people use on me and I've never cared about whether people call me a man or a woman. I'm pan, genderfluid, and a switch. I'm the epitome of a queer fencesitter, but for some fucking reason, whenever I play a game where I have to play specifically as a masculine cis character, I just can't do it. I know you've already said you won't add different gender expressions for the MC, and I respect your decision, but I just have to ask why?
I have this answered in my FAQ, but I don't mind answering.
Basically, I would have to write/make a whole different game at the same time I make this game.
Hazelnut Latte is very much the story of Isaac (name changeable) discovering his sexuality and finally trying to lead a fulfilling life by pursuing his life goal of running a coffee shop and his new discovery that he likes gender non-conforming folk.
To include the option for you to potentially be trans, or a femboy, or non-binary, or a cis woman, etc., would be a pretty different story. It would be me telling several stories since every character will react differently. The player character will engage with the world differently. What is troubling the player character will be different.
And honestly? I don't have the money to do all that. We're already looking at a development cycle that is way way too long for the game we are making. We really don't want to bloat it. We want to finish the game before we hit our 40s at the absolute latest. Because now we have to account for so many more variables in how the player character looks. Every time they are on screen, in every animation, we'd have to make a large number of variants to account for this. And we have one animator who is already doing their best to keep up.
So think of Hazelnut Latte less as a game about you and more as playing a character like Geralt, Arthur Morgan, or Aloy. We can't really change the base character, but we can let you change his name and his appearance a bit. We can let you make choices that change outcomes. But we can't fundamentally rewrite the character for every possible inclusion.
And the last point? To do it right, I would want to hire writers with that experience to tell that point of view. I'm a cis guy flirting with being non-binary. I am not the right person to tell the story of a femboy or trans POV.
If anything, I hope my game inspires someone to make their own no-gen-AI game in a similar style but from a trans POV.
Thank you so much for responding! That makes a lot of sense. As silly as it sounds, after reading more of the comments and descriptions, I might "straight" up play the game just to see the story. I'm a sucker for romance, even if the sex scenes might cause me dysphoria. I hope everything in development goes well, and I look forward to seeing the final release >w<
It might help to keep the MC's default name so you can better disconnect yourself from him. I tend to use the same OC name for male protags in these games, as a trans woman myself, it helps feel like the porn is just porn rather than an attempt at self-insert that causes dysphoria. (That said, I'm also a trans woman who doesn't have bottom dysphoria, and wants to keep her original bits, but I get how it would be different for someone who does have it and wants to change them)
I'm AMAB and I prefer my included parts as well. I'm a self-described femboy, although I don't identify as a cis man. I should get less dysphoria than you tbh, but for some reason I do. I've tried using the default character names, but it still just feels weird when the narration says "you." That being said, it's not like it's impossible for me to play games where I have to be masc presenting, it's just uncomfortable. I appreciate your suggestions though!
Edit: I just reread your comment, and I realized you said you use an OC name that persists across games instead of just using the default. Honestly, that's sort of genius, and I didn't realize that's what you were getting at. I'll totally try that. Thank you!
Just wanted to say this answer is so good. I wish more people in this community were this friendly. I'm not into sword fights but I might actually give this a go because your pride for your story shines
Hi, you said there would be a new demo, but is it lik a new new demo? Or a revamp? i loved the demo but im just curious, you guys did such a good job!!!
when do you think the full game will release (estimate) and do you think you will make it so you can buy the game while your making it. like update after update, episode after episode you can play them?
We just announced on our Patreon that we'll be releasing a base game containing the first 4 episodes, and then we'll do expansions, each containing 4 episodes. So a base game and 3 expansions.
Doing that would balloon the game size, which would take longer to develop. We have a vision, and we're sticking with it. If we were to try to make The Everything Game, we'd never get to make another one.
I'd rather someone passionate about feminization make a game about that, because that ain't me.
I totally understand broo and huge respect to u guys . it's a gem of a game that u guys r making if just there was a feminizing aspect in it it would be cherry on top for me.that feeling is sadly very agonizing 😭

Haven't played since win ver 0.11.7 but is it possible to continue from that save for version 0.16.0.3 or is it a clean slate type deal?
It will need to be a new save since we restarted the game earlier this year <3
no problem, cheers boss and keep up the amazing work

It will be updated on here soon(tm), at this very time it's Patreon and Subscribestar. But there will be a demo here soon for the entire first episode.
Any chance this’ll be coming to apple? So i can play on my iphone?
Apple does not allow porn games on their devices and they only allow official apps so unfortunately no.
They wont let us </3

Where are you downloading it from?
Will you no longer be posting free versions?
Next one is coming out Oct 19th
When is the game coming out on Steam? Any estimate
Unforunately no estimate <3
When will mobile catch up to the 0.15.5 or the 0.16.0?
I have mobile builds out for those

If you're playing the build here on Itch, there should be like 10 pages of saves.

I appreciate your interest! If we were hiring, we'd want someone with game dev experience.
Hi, I wanted to ask if you plan to release new languages for the game at some point, such as Brazilian Portuguese.
Yup one day <3 Small team, low budget, we're trying to cook something up.
Today i cried to I Love You by Lil B it was very beautiful
Damn i don't remember which version i last play, but this is a lot of new thing

Well, no one in the cast can get pregnant, so that's out the door.
And what is nts?
Nts is netorase. It's mostly used in a negative connotation implied cuckoldry but still somehow with the full consent of everyone, so not ntr (netorare).

giant slash in the middle of my screen any idea why?
Check your drivers <3

because the world doesnt revolve around you, and its their game so they can do whatever they want, Cope.

Yeah, I could have done a better job of separating the suggestion of keeping the default name from the other suggestion of using an OC name. lol
I hope you're able to fully figure yourself out and can relieve your dysphoria someday. *hugs*
Just wanted to say this answer is so good. I wish more people in this community were this friendly. I'm not into sword fights but I might actually give this a go because your pride for your story shines
I can't play, whenever i press new game, like 7 seconds later the game crash
Weird that this build has been out for 2 years and this is the first I'm hearing of this bug. Thankfully we have a new demo dropping in October <3
Holy shit this came far. i remember when there was only hazel and now they got VA's
Hey we've had VAs for a while :D
Can you customise your character? if so, how if i may ask?
You can on the build we have on Patreon which will be coming here in October :)
Thanks man, cant wait
why are there so many deleted posts lol ???
Itch is getting a ton of bots again so I delete em :)
Hi, you said there would be a new demo, but is it lik a new new demo? Or a revamp? i loved the demo but im just curious, you guys did such a good job!!!
October 19th :D
会上架steam吗？
I want to remind you that to get to this comment section? You had to scroll past the thing saying "Hazelnut Latte on Steam"
when do you think the full game will release (estimate) and do you think you will make it so you can buy the game while your making it. like update after update, episode after episode you can play them?
We just announced on our Patreon that we'll be releasing a base game containing the first 4 episodes, and then we'll do expansions, each containing 4 episodes. So a base game and 3 expansions.
https://www.patreon.com/radlord/posts/hazelnut-latte-160751774
when do you think the expansions will come?
Probably when they're done :D
Im gonna touch you
Brother im begging ya please add a feminization route😭 i love dis game amd want to explore more pls😭
Doing that would balloon the game size, which would take longer to develop. We have a vision, and we're sticking with it. If we were to try to make The Everything Game, we'd never get to make another one.
I'd rather someone passionate about feminization make a game about that, because that ain't me.
I totally understand broo and huge respect to u guys . it's a gem of a game that u guys r making if just there was a feminizing aspect in it it would be cherry on top for me.that feeling is sadly very agonizing 😭
bro pls add futa mc
Nah
Holy shit, I never thought a porn game....would make me feel such a rollercoaster of emotions,....
Happy to help :D
