great game love it, suggestion through, could LMB on a blank space not pop up a message "There is nothing to interact with" that's redundant. if there was something to interact with, i would either see my character to do something, or a message would say something.
TLDR game is a pain in the ass if you're playing mouse only.
Good so far, though the auto explore should stop on sighting an enemy, also it should prioritize the last movement made as your starting direction. A good example of a auto explore would be Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
Next the hunger mechanic while an obvious nod to classic rogue and games like it, it is honestly a poor mechanic even in other rogue based games (That's why the game i mentioned before got rid of it and it is pretty much rogue distilled) The reason being that it is impossible to balance either it is pointless like in this game as you only will run out of food if you actively waste time or ends up being the entire game as food is so limited. I understand the the mechanic is to stop players from waiting for their cum to go down, but why punish a player who wants to experience the game fully. Especially since that will just cause players to save scum to see the sex scenes and any system that encourages save scumming isn't in a good place.
Finally there is no build variety in the game which while not inherently bad, does decrease re-playability which is normally a staple of the genre.
Just to be clear my negative feedback is hopes to make this game which is honestly quite good, better. As i like it a lot so far.
Hardcore mode is the intended mode for the game. And will probably be the only option in the final version. The current save and load features are mostly there to prevent the game from autosaving after a game breaking bug and bricking a run.
I'm not a fan of the classic hunger mechanic either. I added it to prevent the player from regenerating their health by waiting after every fight. I will be replacing it at some point as well as the health regeneration.
I think it's more fun to use sex as a game mechanic. And then if the player benefits from it there should also be a consequence.
I don't have any plans for a discord. But I do read all the comments on itch, twitter, bluesky and patreon and I try to reply to as many as I can.
I LOVE this game! My only issue is (and I'm sure it's my computer... it sucks) that it drops to a crawl, about 3-4 frames, during the cum scenes. All of them. But otherwise it runs perfectly fine. Is there anything I can adjust to help improve my issue?
This is the best NSFW game I've played in a while. It's so rare to see one with an actually good core gameplay loop that also mixes the NSFW stuff into the gameplay in a satisfying way. The art style is really neat also.
This project has so much potential, I'm really happy I found it. Keep up the good work boss <3
the FPS seems capped at 20 ish (by eye), despite little CPU and GPU usage. At all graphics settings. Is it issue for anyone else? Maybe just on Linux? (amdgpu) - The no usage seems like it's just explicitly waiting?
- Overall the game is very impressive, but quite hard :D (especially since one has to fight the urge to see sex scenes, or get cum overflow :D)
just reset till you find summoning tome then you can dig graves that spawn and summon skull to have 2 to do it, took me long enough to do it, the only one i was missing,it was this kinda hard tbh.
Game is pretty darn good! I love a porn game with actual deep gameplay. I think my only gripe is weapon/shield variation, as if you get a steel sword early on chances are you're not going to get anything better which feels like it screws balance a little bit, but thats something I expect to be fixed on its own as the game gets more fleshed out .Especially since its only 0.3 lol. I'm gonna keep an eye on this one, you got something good going on!
hi floppystack! really impressive work here on hard stuck! I'm a hobbyist 3d artist and have dabbled a bit with unity but wanna start working with godot. I like your approach to character design I think you've struck a really nice balance of detail vs economic and efficient models, but I was wondering how you might approach fur if you were to take it a step further? Have you any interest in pushing hard stuck on that front in the future or do you think higher fidelity fur would break the visual cohesion of the game? As I understand a lot of times fur is done in the game engine, I was curious if you've found godot has any tools for this?
I've been trying to find an approach to fur that would fit a style similar to hard stuck for quite sometime and its been kinda tough finding a satisfying solution.
I don't think Godot or Unity has any built in tools for fur. I believe most people just create hair cards in Blender or Maya and export them to the game engine. Or use some shell based fur shader.
This is super fun to play! I love all the monsters! Do you think you'll ever implement different player characters? I'd love to be able to play this as a male character!
if i remember correctly, someone else mentioned that GODOT uses something unsupported for androids or phones in general. Im sure once it can be supported theyll work on i
I want to be able to say, the game aspect of this is great, while RNG sometimes sucks, having companions to help fight makes it worth while after the first few floors. But i would love to see new costumes like a skirt or dress type? Aside from that, you're very original in keeping it different for all the scenes, and that's more than most have done otherwise.
To start a threesome you need two of said monster nearby when choosing the fuck option. Then you simply select the threesome from the list that pops up. Frank doesn't have any cinematics with other monsters in v0.3.
You can drop items on it and it will tell you if they are blessed, cursed or neither. It will reveal the level of enchantment of weapons, shield, tomes and rings. However it will not identify the rings.
i love this game and i wanted to ask you a few questions as someone who is interested in making an adult game, first off, how do you do you r models and animations? they are so unique and good! also what suggestions do you have for someone just starting out in the game dev world.
In blender I have a skeleton rig that manipulates a metaball object so I can see what I'm animating. I then export the rig and animations to godot where I sample the bone positions with a script and pass them to a raymarching shader.
Characters are sculpted in zbrush, then moved to blender for retopology, texturing, rigging and animation. It could all be done in blender, but I prefer zbrush for sculpting and I have one of the old perpetual licenses. I'm not sure if I would recommend it nowadays with the new pricing scheme though.
If you're just starting out with game development I would say start small, finish your projects and focus on learning.
ik this might be a big ask and all but if its possible can you make a mod or a little cheat mode for people that just want to find all the charecters constinly going form retry to retry to only have a small chance in finding the monsters we havent meet yet is tiring
Edit: When you recruit the kobold and you're wearing the cardboard clothes her hand clips a little through her pants. It's nothing major. I'm guessing it's because you made the animation with her naked or something. I haven't been able to get very far after that lol. But so far the update is amazing.
This game is so well done. Amazing 3D animations, and an actually really fun dungeon crawler with it, even if its a little simple once you get what's going on.
I'd love to see maybe some wearable armors down the line instead of the current clothes system, but I know that'd be a lot of work.
Very excited for more content to come! I'd even pay for this.

Hey, This game was amazing.
Can you add some makeup customization options (style and color)?
And that the bath scene could be repeatable?

Left mouse button is the interact button by default. While the right button is move/attack. They can be swapped in the settings menu.

By the way will you be making a discord?
Thanks for the feedback.

can you create one with I can open it in files not the one with a e because it just makes more of the same file for the e one
I'm sorry but I don't understand your question.
Hello, i have some ideas you might like.The new enemy lizard man with 2 dicks and some group sex scenes pigman+kobold+mc and pigman+frank+mc)
Absolutely phenomenal. Any plans for rougher animations?
If by rougher you mean non consentual animations, then no there are no plans for that.
:(
I LOVE this game! My only issue is (and I'm sure it's my computer... it sucks) that it drops to a crawl, about 3-4 frames, during the cum scenes. All of them. But otherwise it runs perfectly fine. Is there anything I can adjust to help improve my issue?
The cum shader is pretty demanding. I'm working on some performance improvements for it. Running the game at a lower resolution helps.
Thank You. :)
I'll try that adjustment out.
pls add pregnancy features
is there any possible way to mod the game
like changing skins of npc or modding the game
Not at the moment. Maybe in a future build.
we need pregnancy and birth! (sorry if agressive)
i agree
totally
pls developers we need it
This seems awesome, dungeon crawlers are always based.

Animations are capped at 16 fps but the game window should run at normal framerates.
How am i supposed to get 2 skull enemies together is it pure luck to have 2 tombs on 1 floor or is there some other method?
the summoning tome can summon another skull
just reset till you find summoning tome then you can dig graves that spawn and summon skull to have 2 to do it, took me long enough to do it, the only one i was missing,it was this kinda hard tbh.
How do i summon tentacles? I prayed to cun'thulu but i cant seem to find the option to do summon tentacles like it said
You have to open the inventory and click on the arrow that appear there. It brings you to the page with spells
oh, didnt know that was clickable, thanks
the gameplays is really nice. I wish I could hover over statuses to know what they do. Game gives pokemon mystery dungeon vibes in terms of gameplay.
awesome game
I completed all cinematics except the book one. Could you give me some hints? The one in the game didnt really help me out thx
Its the haunted book that pops out from bookcases.

Hey, just wanted to ask how to catch the bath voyeur. I've been to the bath a few times already but nothing happens.
Also, really good game!
The blacksmith is missing after taking a bath. If you wait around by his anvil he will reveal the secret on his way back.
Thanks a million!

This is super fun to play! I love all the monsters! Do you think you'll ever implement different player characters? I'd love to be able to play this as a male character!
Yes, the plan is for more playable characters. But my main priority right now is to get the base game to a more or less finished state.
That makes me so so happy!!! I'm excited to see more <3 Ur doing incredible work!
You should Realy make this game for Android too
if i remember correctly, someone else mentioned that GODOT uses something unsupported for androids or phones in general. Im sure once it can be supported theyll work on i

I think my save file corrupted and now I can't get start the game regardless of reinstall. Where is the save file located so I can delete it?
On windows you can find the save files in:
%appdata%\Godot\app_userdata\HardStuck\Saves
And on linux:
~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/HardStuck/Saves
Yup that did the job! Gonna try and get the save to work since I unlocked everything lol
how excatly can i delete the save file??
the screen goes black after the first logo pops up and ive reinstalled the game and all but i cant seem to get the game working after one play.
Copy and paste the correct path for your operating system into the file browser.
The folder should contain two save files, one called hardstuck.sav and one called hardstuck_metaprogress.sav.
thanks! it wokrs now. you just got a subscriber for patreon!
How to trigger scene play with frank and another monster or player with double monster ? I still can't trigger that scene
To start a threesome you need two of said monster nearby when choosing the fuck option. Then you simply select the threesome from the list that pops up.
Frank doesn't have any cinematics with other monsters in v0.3.
for what is altar, can it be used somehow?
You can drop items on it and it will tell you if they are blessed, cursed or neither. It will reveal the level of enchantment of weapons, shield, tomes and rings.
However it will not identify the rings.
This is covered in the tutorial
The Scenes in this game are amazing i cant wait to see what other types of monsters are added
i love this game and i wanted to ask you a few questions as someone who is interested in making an adult game, first off, how do you do you r models and animations? they are so unique and good! also what suggestions do you have for someone just starting out in the game dev world.
I am also curious as a godot game developer. How did you handle the liquid animations as well?
In blender I have a skeleton rig that manipulates a metaball object so I can see what I'm animating. I then export the rig and animations to godot where I sample the bone positions with a script and pass them to a raymarching shader.

WOW, this game is great!!!! really liked the privious update but this one is the goat so far.
animations 10+ even having no sound is perfect somehow, i like it more xD
keep it up, and thanks for this amazing game.
Love the update!
Edit: When you recruit the kobold and you're wearing the cardboard clothes her hand clips a little through her pants. It's nothing major. I'm guessing it's because you made the animation with her naked or something. I haven't been able to get very far after that lol. But so far the update is amazing.
Thank you!
Bro is an absolute GOAT with this game. Surprisingly simple, yet entertaining mechanics, absolute banger scenes, interesting level designs.
An absolute blessing unto the NSFW game genre
easily one of the top on my best nsfw games list after 10 mins of playin
UPLOAAAAAAADDDDDD AAAAAA, THANK YOU KEEP THE GREAT WORKKK😭😭🙏🙏💕💕💕
This game is so well done. Amazing 3D animations, and an actually really fun dungeon crawler with it, even if its a little simple once you get what's going on.

holy peak
nice game
any plans or chance for this coming to steam?
At some point yes.
Tomorrow is March, when will version 0.3 be released?
A few seconds ago :)
Brooooooooooooooooooooo
Is there any chance the cumflation will be increased to more than 100%, maybe 2 or even 250%
Sorry, but the belly glitches out hard at larger values so probably not.
