Hazelnut Latte v0.11.7 Out for Everyone + An Update
Hello everyone! v0.11.7 of Hazelnut Latte is out for everyone over on my Itch.io page!
I wanted to take this opportunity to give an update regarding the free version of Hazelnut Latte and its future. Ever since the game started development almost two years ago, on October 19, 2022, there has been a free version of Hazelnut Latte to play. This version was first available to my financial backers before eventually landing on Itch for free.
With this new update, we are changing that. As we advance, v0.11.7 will be the public demo for Hazelnut Latte, and new free game versions will not be available on Itch. This news is probably sad for many people, but this was bound to happen as the game progressed.
The demo will still receive occasional updates as people find bugs and typos. If the game changes in Episodes 1 through 5, we will also update the demo to reflect that, such as adding new CGs to highlight critical moments.
We believe Episode 5 is the perfect endpoint for a demo as you meet four of the seven main love interests, and we establish the central conflict for the rest of the game.
Early Access
As usual, new builds will be available on my Patreon and SubscribeStar, but we plan to bring something to Itch. When v0.12 is ready, we will release an Early Access version when you typically get the free version. So you can pay us once on Itch and get what will eventually turn into the full version once the game is done. The downside is that you must wait until it makes the rounds on Patreon, but the benefit is paying once.
We will have more information on this Early Access version when v0.12 is closer to being completed.
That is all for now! Enjoy the new version of Hazelnut Latte and Stay Rad Out There!

This game has some of the best writting i have ever seen in porn games and some actual games
Thank you! 😌
I gotta let this game marinate like the manhuas and manwhas that dont have enough chapters
oh well it was a good run, maybe ill come back to buy it when its done
🫡
I can't install the apk, it says something is wrong with it
I am too broke for patreon, but I look forward to nabbing the completed game whenever that ends up happening.
Not enough actual content in the updates for us to pay for it.
An update where you got an entire new episode with 4 lewd scenes, all old lewd scenes animated, 3 new voice actors for the lewd scenes, updated sprites, and revamped gallery. And that's just stuff I can remember off the top of my head.
If that's not enough content then I dunno what to tell you xD
so you are saying that there will be no more free version after this and the game need to be purchase to play right?
Yes.
man that suck I don't have money to spend on the game
I'm sorry to hear that, but this was always bound to happen as the game went on. 2 years of free was fun though.
i mean artists deserve to be paid for their art. youre lucky they gave you this much for free imo
yea i know they need the money after all wish i could have a little more thought
This might incentivise me to throw money at you through Patreon. Will have a look at my finances in the coming months, but I really want to support you and the team in seeing this incredible game through.
I love this game
This is a super good update man keep up the good work!
Thank you!! Glad you liked it!
Every update that this game receives a tear drops from the corner of me eyes, such a beautiful creation should be immortalized. RadLord you are trully one the GOAT’s of hot gay porn games
🥺🥺 thank you!
A new update of Hazelnut Latte? Yay!
I can transfer my older save file onto this new version, right? I booted up 11.7 and there wasn't a save there. Forgive me if its obvious, I don't use itch much
You could, but I recommend restarting since we redid the way the choices work, so if you load up an old save, it may not display choices.No complaining here, I get to play through peak again 🙏
If you haven't played the early game in a while we've done a lot of QOL updates with new images! :D
Looking forward to it! I haven't played the early game in a good few months.
Hey! I'm okay with this news, but there's some troubles for your players from Russia and Belarus, who can't pay subcription on Patreon or SubscribeStar because of sanctions.
So maybe release Hazelnut Latte in Steam and do at least Early Access version there? Or maybe you even can do Boosty page (it's like Patreon but without sanctions).
I understand that this is sounds like a trouble of minority, but maybe minority isn't so small?
We won't be doing Steam early access, but we will probably do Itch early access. We want to save our momentum on Steam wishlists until we have a complete product.
I'll look into Boosty, though!
Yea, I understand this thing about Steam wishlists.
So if Hazelnut Latte appears on Boosty that's will be really great! I know this is not easy to manage one more page, but you can just check how many subscribers will be by Boosty and decide is it worth. I guess you can count me as one of your Boosty subscribers already xd
Do you know if your country allows Itch.io payments? I'm planning on putting the game up for early access here which may help?
No, Itch support Paypal, but Paypal really tough to get if you from Russia. I guess if you do Stripe support it will be little easier to pay for the game, but however
For example, Boosty support direct pay from russian debit cards and can pay to the author in Paypal. So I guess if you want to receive money on Paypal Boosty is good for you.
Ugh, that sucks. I appreciate the information! I'll definitely look into Boosty soon :)
