• Later in 2015, the developers announced HunieCam Studio, a spinoff business simulator game in which the player manages a Cam-girl business empire, featuring most of the original HuniePop girls plus several new characters. It was released April 4th, 2016.
• Today we are taking a look at HuniePop which is a real Kickstarter success story. This is a very intriguing game, not just because of the hot anime girls. It is because this is a game that is a mixture of dating sim, puzzle and it then has some RPG elements sprinkled over the top of it.

If you are getting a sense of Deja Vu with the name, HunieCam Studio that is probably because this is a follow up/side game to the awesome HuniePop game that came out a few years back. This time around they are taking on the world of management games as you find out if you have what it takes to run a company that is all about cam girls!

So Much Charm!

HunieCam Studio is a Western Business Sim in the same way that HuniePop is a Dating Sim.Created by the same developer, Ryan Koons, it casts the player in the role of being a 'Camgirl Tycoon' in charge of their own website and employees, with the mission of making as many fans as possible in twenty-one days.

Like HuniePop that came before it, HunieCam Studio is a game that just oozes charm. There are many different girls in the game (18 I think) and you may recognize them from the last game. The idea here is that you need to make in fat stacks of that internet money and to do this you need to keep your cam girls happy, healthy, and motivated.

Cummins engine location. There is not much in the way of “story” here, but each girl does have her own lines of dialogue and voice acting so it does have a lot of charm and personality to it all.

So Cute, So Naughty!

I love the style of the games that this studio does and rather than just copy the exact same style that HuniePop had, HunieCam Studio is cuter and more stylized and I really like it. It has the look of a tycoon game, but way more personality. I love how cute and how individual the girls are. Each one has her own style and that is something that really does come through the screen as you play.This is not a hardcore XXX game that is made to get you off. It is more made to make you smile and laugh and that is cool. They certainly pull it off and the presentation alone was more than enough to keep me invested in the game.

Making Internet Cam Girl Money Is Hard

The way the game works is on a 21-day cycle. You have 21 days to make as much money as you can and then you are judged at the end of those 21 days. HunieCam Studio is a game that has far more going on than you would think. Getting a bunch of girls to take their clothes off on cam to make money is just the tip of the iceberg. You need to keep your girls fit, happy, and full of alcohol, drugs, or cigarettes depending on what their vice is. I found it best to have just a couple of girls at the beginning.

As you make money, you can purchase new sex toys, outfits and so on that will hopefully get you more fans and make you more money in the process. If you need some of that quick cash, you can “hire out” one of your girls at a seedy hotel for some quick cash, but you better watch out as they can get an STD! The whole game has a risk and reward thing and it is a lot of fun. The 21-day thing is the only drawback, to be honest with you, you can continue on after there, but there is no real point to it.

I think that HunieCam Studio has just as much charm as HuniePop does. It is a game that is certainly going to make you laugh, but do not let the cute and naught graphics fool you.

Keyboard shortcut word insert picture. This is one very challenging tycoon-style game that requires you to keep on top of a bunch of moving parts. You do this and you can earn yourself some big internet money, just make sure your cam girls are happy and not too overworked!

Pros:

• The whole game is very amusing
• I liked the cute art style the game has
• It is even more awesome if you recognize the characters!
• You can buy the cam girls all kinds of stuff such as sex toys
• It is way more challenging than the cute visuals suggest

Cons:

• It does take a while to get to grips with the game
• I wish that a run lasted more than 21 days

HuniePop is a tile-matching and dating simadult video game created by American game designer Ryan Koons, under the alias of HuniePot.^[1] The game was released for Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux-based personal computers in January 2015, after being funded via a successful Kickstarter campaign. HuniePop is available in two different versions, an uncensored version available via Humble Bundle and MangaGamer, and a censored version via Steam.^[2] The game follows the dating adventures of the main character as they try to woo several different women in their home town.

In February 2015, Koons released an update that gave HuniePop a new ending that unlocks options that make it easier for players to fill out a female character's profile and select date locations, among other options.^[3] Due to its strong sexual content and themes, Twitch blocked users from streaming gameplay footage of the title, regardless of which version of the game was being played.^[4]

Gameplay[edit]

Gameplay focuses on the player character (who can be male or female) interacting with several different women, each of whom has her own distinct personalities and preferences. The player can interact with women by talking to them and giving them gifts. Doing this rewards the player with 'Hunie', an in-game currency that can be used to upgrade the player's stats. These stats allow the player to earn more points during dates, increasing their chance of success.

In order to progress through the game, players must take the women on dates, where they will play a tile matching game where they must make matches of 3 or more of the same tokens. The player must earn enough points to complete the date before they run out of moves. Each woman has a specific type of token that they like and dislike, and players will gain more points if they match the type of token that the woman prefers. The player can also use special items called 'date gifts' during their dates which grant positive effects to help the player earn more points. After a successful date, the player is rewarded with a picture of the woman the date was with. Each successful date will also raise the game's difficulty, making subsequent dates require more points to complete. After 3 successful dates with a woman, the player will be able to take them on a date at night, and if that date is successful, the player can bring the woman to their bedroom for one final round of tile matching (and, if this is successful, have sexual intercourse with her). Unlike regular dates, the player has unlimited moves to complete the bedroom game, but the score meter constantly drains over time, so to win, matches must be made quickly until the meter is full.Throughout the game the player is guided by Kyu, a love fairy set on turning the player into a successful Lothario. She gives the player tips on how to interact with each woman and explains how the game's various mechanics work. She also becomes dateable after one bedroom game.

Development[edit]

A Kickstarter campaign was launched with a minimum funding goal of $20,000. The Kickstarter ended successfully, raising $53,536 from 1,483 backers.^[5][6]

Reception[edit]

HuniePop has received positive reception. Hardcore Gamer gave the game a rating of four out of five, writing 'HuniePop is pornography—darn fine pornography at that—but it’s also a shockingly good puzzle game. Occasionally those two identities feel at odds with each other, but for the most part they work in concert to show you a good time.'^[7]Kotaku also gave a mostly positive review, praising it for being 'strategically deep and challenging enough to kick a Candy Crush casual's ass' while also commenting that the game lacked a 'strong finish'.^[8] GameZone's Mike Splechta called the game 'fun and engaging'.^[9]Destructoid criticized the game's conversations as lacking in variety while stating that 'In the end, I realize this is a game that, while riddled with issues, I liked a lot. A whole lot. In fact, with better writing and some more care given to the characters to flesh them out, it could be so much more.'^[10]

Legacy[edit]

Since HuniePop's release, there have been other games inspired by it, such as Front Wing's Purino Party.^[11]

On April 4, 2016, Koons released a spin-off game called HunieCam Studio.^[12]HunieCam Studio is an adult themed business simulation game, and features many of the characters who previously appeared in HuniePop.^[13] The game's art style also shifted to a more cartoon style, away from the anime-based art. Kotaku gave HunieCam Studio a mixed review, commenting that although the game's text was occasionally entertaining, they found the overall game experience to be 'extremely boring'.^[14]

A sequel, HuniePop 2: Double Date, was announced in 2020.^[15] It is a sequel to HuniePop with the player controlling the same protagonist, and features returning characters from HuniePop and HunieCam Studio. It was released for Microsoft Windows and OS X on February 8th, 2021.^[16][17]
