The New Hive is a text-based gay monster porn game. You're a scavenger out in the desolate desert wasteland. Some monsters come into town. Some stuff happens.

The game is fully complete, with an ending, with around 270k words of text total. Most of the game's content is in a 'main quest', which has a few different branches, and there are some sidequests or random encounters too.

The New Hive (patreon)

There's a pretty extensive content list in the game itself (just click 'content notes' at the start) but the short version is
  • basically exclusively M/M
  • some but not all sex scenes will transform you; nearly all of the tfs make you more monstrous yourself, rather than e.g., furry transformations. there is the option to start with a dog dick.
  • monster & alien sex as well as sex with other humans
  • really rough sex (but there's no rape)
  • threesomes / gangbangs
  • optional mpreg/oviposition, with associated transformations
  • some people have said that the monster dicks are too grossly-described for them to enjoy it :V

I don't know what it says of me that I am more concerned about the possibility of the text mistaking "sensitive" for "pleasurable" :p

Hah, yeah, when I was initially writing the TFs & descriptions I was intending to take things in a more "increased sensitivity for good or for ill" direction -- and there are a few traces of that still in the story (there's another character who has a TFed dick, and you kinda have to teach him how to jerk off again since some things are too intense / not intense enough with the change in sensation) -- but yeah for the most part it did end up in practice meaning "pleasurable", since it turned out I didn't super want to write a bunch of what would be basically like, ballbusting content.

Oh wow, tbh, I thought you had stopped doing game development altogether Xax. Last I saw from you was that Hell Game. I'll definitely give this a whirl right away. Not enough M/M stuff in general, and def not enough monsterfuckery in specific so yay

Overall this was vary good. The lack of save/load function was annoying at times, and the map/camp flow was rather clunky. But the narrative flowed smoothly, the porn was easy to find once you knew where to look, and the smut was vary hot.

Hey, thank you, glad you enjoyed it!

There is actually a savegame system: any time you're in town or making camp a "save game" link should show up on the sidebar. Maybe I should make those links higher-contrast; they don't actually show up super clearly.

Exclusively M/M monster/alienfucking games are such a rare gem nowadays (Like a tiny needle in a mile wide haystack sort of rare) so this will be interesting to try out, as I'm starved for M/M games.

Interesting design for the knotted monster dick you start out with btw. Not complaining ofc. You said the dick descriptions were grotesque and delivered so consider that a win, nor do they turn me off but then again I'm a freak myself. xP

This is lots of fun! I'm on my second playthrough now, and there seems to be a lot of variability based on which TFs you start out with, which is nice. In both playthroughs, I've been running into some bugs, especially in the part of the game after the humans from the military show up. I'm not sure if the site sends you automatic bug reports for those, or if it would be good for me to report them here with the 3 bits of info that seem relevant: displayed error message, line of code identified as where error comes up, save dump.

E.g. here's an example from the sex scene where you fuck Jinn's ass:
error message: "Macro not found: <if"
error message title: "<<<if hasMutation("dick">>",
save dump (prob not relevant here?):
{"vars":{"_back":"village int","sex":{"recon":2,"zhalk":1,"zhalkoral":1,"zhalktop":1,"zhalkoraltop":1,"oral":9,"oraltop":7,"top":15,"anal":7,"brulvundojn":1,"brulvundojnanal":1,"brulvundojntop":1,"brulvundojnanaltop":1,"analtop":5,"pthuul":2,"pthuulanal":2,"pthuulbottom":2,"pthuulanalbottom":2,"analbottom":2,"bottom":5,"pthuultop":0,"astau":0,"khru":5,"khruoral":2,"khrutop":4,"khruoraltop":1,"khruanaltop":2,"khruanal":2,"khrufist":1,"khrufisttop":1,"fist":1,"fisttop":1,"khrubottom":1,"khruoralbottom":1,"oralbottom":2,"yraal":2,"yraaloral":1,"yraaltop":1,"yraaloraltop":1,"yraalcocksound":1,"yraalbottom":1,"yraalcocksoundbottom":1,"cocksound":1,"cocksoundbottom":1,"gawann":3,"gawannfrot":2,"gawanntop":3,"gawannfrottop":2,"frot":2,"frottop":2,"gawannoral":1,"gawannoraltop":1,"rook":1,"munitions":3,"munitionsoral":1,"munitionstop":3,"munitionsoraltop":1,"reconhj":0,"rookoral":1,"rookbottom":1,"rookoralbottom":1,"munitionsanal":2,"munitionsanaltop":2,"reconoral":2,"recontop":2,"reconoraltop":2,"reconanaltop":0,"reconassplay":0},"mutations":["knot"],"mutation":2,"pregnant":"","ccpts":0,"back":"village int","camps":{"jinn":0,"gawann":4},"queuedUpper":0,"queuedLower":0,"inventory":{"ancient wood":3,"snapped filament":1,"crystallized lightrot":1,"clay figurine":1,"circuit board":2,"glass shards":1,"frayed cable":1,"old driftwood":1,"iron rod":1,"glass bulb":1,"green glass":2},"carrying":[],"x":0,"y":0,"scavenge":"-3,1","drudgeActive":"","gheistIntroduced":true,"humanSiegeArrive":153,"stressPoints":["rook talk","munitions blow","2ic collapse","munitions talk","rook hj/blow","munitions ride","2ic sand","recon bj"],"_l":"knot","":"-","_":1,"brulvundojnFriends":true,"brulvundojnFucked":2,"knowAstau":false,"from":{"leaky":0,"asshole":0,"balls":null,"dick":null,"knot":"cc"},"pregnancies":0,"wombCounter":0,"biggest":{"oral":"brulvundojn","anal":"brulvundojn"},"wwwPairCoords":{"x":1,"y":-2},"wwwTalk":1,"sireInv":2,"_big":"brulvundojn","plot":4,"_resetrun":true,"sandstorm":0,"nextDaySandstorm":false,"wanderingSire":"mesa country","wwwLocation":"1,-2","moves":3,"turns":174,"treasure":["-1,2","-1,-3","2,-1","-2,-1"],"_n":"0,-1","_s":"0,1","_w":"-1,0","_e":"1,0","_i":"0,0","timeOfDay":0,"surveyComplete":false,"wwwEggsDelivered":0,"lord":"1,2","_dug":"green glass","cleftSurvey":true,"pregnancyStarted":0,"campHelpersSet":false,"noSex":true,"handsfeetfur":0,"_camprun":false,"_awake":"","_sx":-3,"_sy":1,"chain":true,"brulvundojnChain":0,"locustChain":1,"caveRidgeSurvey":0,"stalksSurvey":0,"baySurvey":0,"ticVisits":0,"ticVisitedThisTrip":false,"munitionsVisitedThisTrip":0,"leaderVisitedThisTrip":0,"reconVisitedThisTrip":0,"reconSexAfterExile":0,"reconLocation":"ravine","munitionsLeaving":0,"sireVisited":0,"surveysDone":4,"humansManaged":true,"ticArriveSceneRan":0,"ticLocation":"caves","munitionsArriveSceneRan":true,"munitionsLocation":"village","reconArriveSceneRan":0,"_act":0,"_xy":["-3","1"],"concreteSurvey":true,"chainCamps":2,"zhalkLastCocksuck":0,"zhalkCocksucks":0,"zhalkChainFacefuck":true,"zhalkOpenCocksuck":true,"zhalkDelayed":true,"_who":"2ic","_what":"anal","_position":"top","brulvundojnKnotted":true,"ravineSurvey":0,"metwwwPair":true,"wwwPairBrulvundojn":0,"glassCavesSurvey":true,"zhalkAngry":0,"drudge2":3,"drudge3":3,"drudge5":3,"drudge1":0,"drudge4":3,"drudge6":0,"pthuulScenes":2,"khruBeast":"Brulvundojn","khruFist":0,"khruBlewFirst":false,"yraalSurvey":2,"yraalReject":0,"yraalNight":3,"yraalFuck":1,"fortressSurvey":true,"leaderLocation":"away","zhalkPostSiegeScene":0,"gawannSurvey":3,"gawannPrompt":false,"gawanPrompt":0,"gardenSurvey":0,"ridgeSurvey":true,"_gawann":"gawann fuck again","humanIntro":true,"days":15,"leaderTalk":1,"leaderStress":0,"munitionsTalk":3,"munitionsStress":3,"rookTalk":6,"rookStress":2,"rookLocustDick":false,"ticTalk":0,"ticStress":2,"reconTalk":0,"reconFlirt":3,"reconStress":1,"talkOptions":["make smalltalk","why are you in town","where are you from","leader","2ic","munitions","recon","rook","you wanna fuck around","ĝheist dicks"],"leaderIntroduced":1,"ticIntroduced":1,"munitionsIntroduced":1,"reconIntroduced":1,"rookGheistDickPlan":0,"rookTension":true,"rookSmalltalk":2,"rookMunitionsThreesomePlanned":true,"ticCross":true,"rookWannaFuck":true,"leaderSiege":1,"ticSiege":3,"_flirt":"fuck around","surpriseDick":true,"standing":true,"rookThreesomeUnlockable":true,"reconIntroCock":0,"reconCocksuckReject":0,"munitionsNightRide":false,"leaderPissed":true,"leaderCommandTalk":0,"leaderSeige":0,"munitionsRideFromTalk":false,"prevent":false,"munitionRemind":0,"came":true,"leaderHitOn":true,"leaderFish":true,"mostStress":{"who":"munitions","pts":3},"leaving":["Agares","Leraje","Raven","Rook"],"anySiegeSex":true,"whoSiegeSex":["munitions","rook","recon"],"rookLocation":"village","staying":["Maxwell"]},"passage":"save"}

Don't know if that kind of thing is helpful.

Oh yeah, if you could post here (or PM me) with the scene and the error message any time you find one, that would be super helpful! There aren't any automated bug reports, so mostly looking for bugs has been trying to exhaustively visit every passage in the game, and I definitely missed more than a few.

dude this was definitely a unique experience.
that handful of us who come here wanting some more male-focused content, should at least give this a chance.
some of the mutie stuff I personally didn't care for but this game has personality oozing out of it.

got a bunch of other stuff oozing everywhere too :p

well it's been two years, but i've been picking away at a major content patch for a while, & it's finally ready for release. this adds around 80k words of new scenes (bringing the total up to around 360k words), mostly with five new NPCs added. it also adds sex scene tracking and multiple save slots, and a bunch of other stuff

as always the latest version is over on itch. check it out!
