On the go.” You can gain Hunie (Huniepop's experience) by talking with girls and giving them gifts.When you have enough Hunie, you can increase certain stats to help you in the Puzzle mode, such as increasing the point value of Sexuality tokens or decreasing how much those demonic purple hearts anger you when you match them by mistake.Ahem. As Kyu says “The HunieBee is an essential lifeline for any player To manage your items and stats, and buy food, drinks and gifts. After the tutorial level, you’re given the "HunieBee", a magical PDA thatĪllows you to keep track of all the girls. There's also a small bit of RPG elements thrown in here.

Some of these have powerful effects, such as consuming all the Romance tokens on the board. There are also other tokens - Pink hearts for Passion, which boost the value of the other tokens, the Golden bells for Joy, which increase the number of moves you can make, and the Blue teardrops (at least I think they’re teardrops) for Sentiment, allowing you to activate Fairy Gifts. So depending on the girl you’re dating, the value of the tokens is altered. What’s different here is that the tokens correspond with the four traits that the girls identify with – Red for Sexuality, Green for Flirtation, Orange for Romance, and Blue for Talent.

To talk to her anymore - there's no change in dialogue, and you get no That's one issue I'veįound with this game, after having sex with a girl, there's no reason She’s a High School dropout, or when Beli asks if I look into someonesĮyes while having sex – after having sex with her. Moments - like one where Jessie would praise you for remembering that The writing, while more original than the many Newgroundsĭating Sims out there, had a lot of these awkward and/or questionable For starters, the Dating Sim part is hit or miss. The goal of Huniepop is simple, get the girl (or girls). The main cast from left to right: Beli, Jessie, Aiko, Tiffany, Kyu. Turns out that the woman at the bar and the fairy are one and the same, and she’s here to help you with the ladies! There are 8 to pursue from the start, with more to unlock: Tiffany, the kind and fun university cheerleader Aiko the, apathetic yet humorous university professor Kyanna, the image-obsessed fit hairdresser and single mom Audrey, the reckless Tsundere(?) party girl Lola, the flight attendant that aspires to be a Tennis player Nikki, the cold and cynical Otaku Jessie, the shameless and carefree Pornstar and Beli, the insecure and shy Yoga instructor.
