Downpatching to the January 23, 2015 version (it's faster!)

The current version of the game is the Valentine's Update. This update added multiple quality-of-life improvements for reaching 100%. Once you've slept with Venus, you can buy gifts for Hunie, and the chance to learn new details of completed girls is increased, and you can choose date locations. Unfortunately, sleeping with Kyu is now required to unlock Venus, in addition to the 8 main girls. And oddly, a short delay was added to Kyu's final textboxes during the intro.

Therefore, the January 23, 2015 version is faster for all categories except 100%. In addition, it runs DRM-free, due to not having Steam achievements.

This download includes all game files, except the EXE (which is unchanged between versions, and should make this legal!). Extract them on top of a game copy, replacing all original files. (If it doesn't ask you if you want to replace anything, then you're not extracting it in the right place)

How to Speedrun: HuniePop (An in-depth guide to Get Laid - Easy)

https://youtu.be/dR5_0kPUhrE

This is the first edition of my new How to Speedrun video series. I put a lot of work into this video but since it's my first real project like this it might be a little rough around the edges. I hope all those that want to can use this video as a great way to improve at the run. Keep in mind this is only the first video in this series so if you liked this one, or the idea of this one, and would enjoy another, consider subscribing, I would much appreciate it.

How to Speedrun: HuniePop 101

HuniePop Speedrun Mod (easiest way to censor the game)

The HuniePop Speedrun Mod is the easiest way to censor the game, and bind left click mashing without having to use a 3rd party program.

It also lets you set a framerate cap for the game, which helps prevent any potential hardware advantages from monitor framerates. And it has an in-game timer, as well as a robust Cheat Mode to help with practice/routing.

There are two versions, one for the January 23 update and one for the Valentine's update. Please download the correct version! Extract the contents next to your game's EXE (follow the HOW TO INSTALL image directions if necessary).

JAN. 23: https://drive.google.com/u/0/uc?id=1qjLj9fB86nIhd5KERbwDrkZE16-4ItHM&export=download
VALENTINE'S: https://drive.google.com/u/0/uc?id=1p7uv5mO-fYAO2wUgp_G3x-EWbzbLBtk8&export=download

If you've installed it correctly, there will be version info displayed in the main menu. By default, Vsync remains on, and the Scroll Wheel, WASDQE and Control Sticks are treated as pressing Left Click. F4 returns you to the Main Menu for quicker resets without having to relaunch the game. These can all be changed using the Settings Editor.

Check the readme file for more info about the mod's features. And join the HuniePop Speedrunning Discord for any assistance or suggestions with the mod.

Routes/information for all categories (updated 2022)

The information here is mostly up-to-date, but for more information, and asking questions, join the HuniePop Speedrunning Discord: https://discord.gg/r32Jku4Dss
In particular, there's a lot of useful information about game mechanics pinned in the huniepop-routing channel. There's also a downpatch there to the Jan. 23 patch, which is faster than Valentine's for every category other than 100%. And of course the speedrun mod. Also, TURN YOUR PARTICLE LIMIT OPTION TO LOW, IT SAVES TIME!

General use cheatsheet: https://pastebin.com/z6k2QpvM
The numbers in parentheses are the girls' alcohol tolerance.
1:1 means 100 Munie = 1 intoxication (up to 12, for a 2.2x multiplier on Hunie and 6 starting Sentiment on a date).
400 means that the cheapest way to get them drunk is to buy them the four 400 cost drinks (giving them 3 intoxication each).  500 cost drinks also give only 3 intoxication, so they're a rip-off. 300 only gives 2, meaning a 66% rate (while 400 cost drinks are worth 75%).
6+3 means the cheapest way to get them drunk is the Whisky and any 300 cost drink. 5+4 works as well.
Giving them their favorite drinks only give you 180 Hunie regardless of the cost, so I usually don't worry about it. (I recommend using the Beer on Nikki on Night 1, though.)
Also, note that Aiko, Audrey, Jessie, and Momo can be gotten drunk at any time! Otherwise, it must be Evening/Night, and the girl must be at Bar & Lounge or Lusties Nightclub. I've tried to mark where girls can be gotten intoxicated with a (D) in the routes. Saving up gifts for these phases, especially Lola 2, Nikki 4, and Audrey 2, can be huge for your Hunie. I buy extra gifts for Lola before the end of day 2, and for Audrey before the end of day 4.

Information about Piece Spawning:
The more of a token type is on the board, the less likely it is to spawn.
There's a max of 12 on the board for Affection/Passion, max 10 Sentiment, max 8 Joy/Broken Hearts.
So, there's 86 total tokens possible and 56 on the board. That means as an example, if there's 7 Broken Hearts on the board, that'd mean a 1/30 chance a new spawning piece will be a Broken Heart.
Perfumes multiply these max amounts by 1.5x, so 18 max for Affection.
Conversion plushies put the BHs back in to the pool, but the new pieces don't subtract from that piece type (or add back to the pool when matched).

BIG NOTE ABOUT ABSORPTION ITEMS (LIKE FLOWERS):
Absorptions are treated like a 3-of for points, but any Power Token multiplier will be applied to the entire match. So, if you absorb 10 Flirtation tokens for 10 points each, it'd be worth 100 points with no Power Token, but with a Power Token, it'll be worth 150 points (or more with Charisma upgrades). A Flower with 1 or 2 Power Tokens can be a great way to finish a date, and way better than just doing a 3-of with the Power Token.

Get Laid:
Phase route: https://pastebin.com/SRHfymYP
This can be a very RNG-heavy category, because of how small the point requirements are. On Easy difficulty, it's really about matching fast, and trying to get some Passion early so 3-of-Sexuality is worth a good amount. The more you match off the board, the more will spawn!
Getting the Sexuality upgrade before Date 1 is recommended; Tiffany gift RNG can matter a lot for this, especially getting two 500-cost gifts available (Notebook, Bead Bracelet, Glow Sticks).
Buying the Passion upgrade before date 2 costs roughly 15 seconds in menuing, which is only recommended for Hard difficulty.
If you get any good date gifts (Sex Perfume, Lipstick, any consumption items especially Sex Flower), go ahead and throw them in, although the Stuffed Bear is usually best to use first. It isn't worth it at all to check gifts on Easy.

Get Laid with Kyu:
Phase route: https://pastebin.com/9pUs3pQe
A slighty longer category where you have sex with Kyu. The fastest route is with Aiko, although we used Audrey for years since they're both Flirtation girls.
Checking the store a few days and getting Aiko drunk on Morning 5 to hand the gifts over is the best way to get the two Flirtation upgrades for Kyu. Morning 5 is also a good time to check date gifts, especially for Flirtation flower/perfume or Shiny Lipstick.
The Audrey route may be a good idea for Hard difficulty, where you can get Kyu drunk before all of her dates if you want to (especially if you got lucky and got Flirtation Perfume), plus money is tighter so you may lose more time in menuing in the Aiko route.

All Main Girls:
Phase route: https://pastebin.com/dEB3qZbb
A decently long category where you have sex with the 8 main girls.
The ideal early-game gift strategy in long categories is Stuffed Bear, Blue Suede Shoes (always get it going ASAP), Shiny Lipstick (turn a good 4/5-of-a-kind into a date-finisher), and three consumption items, leaning towards the type flowers, especially the Pink Lily.
These consumption items are great because they give you a great point burst (or a couple Passion levels), shift a lot of tokens around, and make one less token type on the board (two things that mean more likelihood of 4/5-of-a-kinds). The bad side is they frequently can lead to Broken Hearts matching; be weary.
Perfume is also incredibly useful, especially if getting a girl drunk, although you have to remember to switch the type of it for the girls you're dating. Perfume is the only thing that can affect the RNG of what tokens drop, and the effect it has is huge for getting big moves.
This category is great for late-game perfume, as 5 of the 6 final dates are Sexuality dates, so you don't have to worry about changing it much.
The upgrade route in the pastebin is based on Garrett's work, he has a video showcasing the route linked there as well. Using intoxication well can be crucial for getting the most Hunie out of your Munie.
On Hard difficulty, if you get the Heart Necklace, this could be a good idea in the later dates. The necklace drains your Passion level, giving you 2% of your goal for each Passion level. It's a great finisher, if you do your math right.

All Panties:
Phase route: https://pastebin.com/V27fZN6Y
This category is mostly the same as AMG, with a harder endgame that has a variety of piece preferences required for the secret girls.
BE SURE TO LOOK FOR BAG OF GOLDFISH IN THE STORE, AND GIVE KYU THE PORN MAG, TO BE READY TO UNLOCK CELESTE AND MOMO ON NIGHT 8 AT THE BEACH!
Perfume still helps a lot in the endgame to help with consistency and speed, but since the token type you want will be changing a lot, be sure to not use the wrong perfume.
On All Panties Hard, you might want to go with a full Alpha Mode build near the end:
Blue Suede Shoes, Leopard Print Shoes (get these going ASAP; 4-of-a-kinds or more will now be worth 3 Sentiment, and essentially not cost a move. absolutely critical)
2 of Stuffed Whale/Bear/Penguin (Penguin is safety; Whale and Bear both help towards winning especially if you set up 5-ofs)
Stuffed Penguin (Broken Hearts -> Joy, to take care of a second rush of broken hearts, and replenish moves in the process)
Heart Necklace, Pearl Necklace (These drain your Passion level and your Sentiment total to fill a percentage of the Affection goal. Use them when you think you have enough to win the date)
The two shoes and Pearl Necklace are absolutely essential; the Shiny Lipstick can also help a lot if you're missing one of the other three, or another Move related item like the Sunflower.

100%
Phase route + cheatsheet: https://pastebin.com/LAeqNM7r
100% will be changing soon, as there's strategies that should make it a good amount faster, and way more unique. The classic way to do it is to just do All Panties, then just finish the rest. Using the base patch and then switching to the Valentine's version for its 100% helpers used to be allowed but won't anymore.
The idea with the cheatsheet is to have a copy of it open, and delete the things from the list in between day phases as you go, to help keep track of what's left without checking the HunieBee all the time.
You'll need a lot of Munie, especially for the 6 Unique gifts for each girl. The fastest, safest, and easiest way to get Munie is just to do more Easy dates with Perfume strats, the point requirement will stay at 3300 and each date gives you 4-6k Munie. Failing dates does get you less Munie, but you still get some, so it's okay if you do. If a date looks hopeless, just fail it quickly, don't drag on trying to salvage it imo.
