Others - Hard Stuck [v0.3 EA3] [floppystack]

Worth a try, then after the try, worth the wait for more. Items seem to be unique and scaled, gets harder as the levels progress so its good to level up stats and items whenever possible (it feels like an actual game. New game means new dungeon layout which also means randomized items. I recommend saving when health and food are full or when at a resting area. Should implement a way for us to reduce cum intoxication or release it in some sort of way (or maybe i haven't found it yet). Anticipating new enemies, enhanced character customization, maybe even a story, bosses, and I would also like to see new playable characters or other female npcs that also 'deal' with the enemies alongside you besides just the summons and followers. Thanks, and good luck on finishing this game and other games!

Awesome game !

Can't wait for all the future content.

Animations are so well done.

I also really like this old school vibe, and the rogue like gameplay is really catchy.

5/5 stars well deserved.

Really good for early access. Animations are mostly awesome. Combat is fun and engaging. The girl is really hot and gives a mei from overwatch vibe. Cumflation kink is a plus. Great work dev/devs. i cant wait to see whats in store for this game!!!!!!!!

Great stuff so far. if you're into the tags, and like traditional rouge-likes, this is absolutely worth your time.
There is an element of luck that significantly impacts your runs. That's not to say your gameplay doesnt matter, you still need to play well to make progress, but sometimes the game will just refuse to give you what you need to survive. Most of my deaths/defeats have been my fault though.
What we have here is a bit short, but decently challenging. obviously the length is being worked on, and the challenge is expected of the genre.
The scenes are all pretty short and sweet, and they only progress as you advance them, allowing you to experience them at your own pace. They're all pretty hot too. They can't be skipped though, which over the course of multiple attempts, can become repetitive.
The game itself is very good, It feels fairly deep for what's there, and there's a bit of an effort to blend a need to initiate the scenes into the gameplay that feels pretty organic.
Overall I think this is already a real good game. I'd say its already worth the time you can sink into it, and I'm excited to see where it goes!

The game is very fun, played for about 2 hours and unlocked most of the scenes. At the current update there are about 20ish scenes. Very good for an early release. The gameplay is simple yet challenging. The scenes however are amazing. Great style and animation and actual cum physics. Simply amazing.

Hard Stuck is genuinely a great game. The animations of the game are very well done. The variety of characters to have fun with also keeps the game feeling fresh. The only reason I didn't give the game 5 stars is because I would like them to add better NSFW sound effect to the game.

Quality content and gameplay. The DnD-ish rogue-like gameplay just feels fluid and nicely done. Maybe a little balancing here and there; this is not like another rogue-like game I play where I could force a win with just knowledge and gameplay. Hopeful for the full release, great potential.

Awesome game! Sexy thicc MC woman! Cum inflation, which for whatever reason is disabled by default. The sex scenes are short but kind of hot. She's creampied hard! At the moment there are just a few mobs to fight or fuck.
The resource management is difficult; I managed to overfill her with cum a few times. So there are four ways of triggering a game over.

My only issues are the somewhat clunky way of playing and that the GODOT engine isn't very optimised.

Part from that, I really hope this game doesn't end up being abandoned!
Great work!

For a 0.3 game this has way more content than many 1.0.
The only issue is the actual gameplay, where it is overly simple and RNG currently can just screw you over, but considering this is a porn game where you can access the porn without grinding bullshit endlessly it works very well.
The only "grind" is if you want to get "gangbang" unlocks, where you must have two enemies beside you (and a lot of cum capacity to not instantly die) but that's a very minor pet peeve.

If you like what you see in the previews, that's what you'll get and a little bit more.
Can't ask more of a game.

Amazing, some amendments to complaints/nitpicks/wants:

- More ways to increase belly capacity; maybe bigger belly too (no such thing as too big) - you can now get more, in a roundabout way. Not a direct way, though, so this stands.
- You can wear goggles in the nude, but not regular glasses. The cardboard outfit doesn't have the same level of customization as alpine for some reason. Pls to change.
- Calories are kinda annoying, there should be more ways to gain them besides a ring and sandwiches
- Later enemies can hit WAY TOO HARD, even more so with the new enemy
- Related the 4 above, I wish there was a cheat menu of some kind; also a difficulty selector
- pregnancy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Looking forward to seeing this game grow

Good progression but keep track of your map seeds for replays
Deeply appreciate the graphical optimization settings
Navigation settings could use some additional tweaking for assessability
Looking forward to additional updates
good game, an instant classic

Fun, lighthearted, and thank for fuck's sake, a rare dungeon crawler with a female protagonist where the H-scenes aren't defeat/rape.
_________________________________________________________

Summary: Although not groundbreaking for erotic games, and recycling an old concept, Hard Stuck is entertaining enough. The protagonist feels real, even with the cartoonized style, and you get to dictate the pace at which the game goes, considering it's you who manages every turn.

Review:

• Art-style: ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
The art-style is welcoming and although not visually stunning, it fits the light purpose of the game. The protagonist is a stylized nerdy chubby girl, and the monsters are your go-to dungeon crawler fantasy creatures. None of which have an immensely impressive design, but that, in itself, fits the "casual" aura of the game. I like it.

• Gameplay: ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
There's more complexity to the gameplay than it seems. Every click is a turn, and that might mean you don't get to just smash your keys frantically, as this may imply wrong decisions that get you cornered, slain or starving. You need to choose which monsters to flee from, which ones to fuck, and which ones to fight. Using diagonal escape routes, turning the camera and using your items is fundamental, otherwise you'll just end up frustrated. All in all, it's fun.

• Storyline: ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
There's no complex storyline, but even so, the game does a good job at telling you the very basic concept it follows. You're met with a nerdy girl stumbling into the dungeon from a TV screen, stunned and dazed. She then gets up, and faces the path before her. What else do you need to know? Again, like I said about the art-style, it matches the casual vibe of the game. I'm still withdrawing a star, as I think it'd be unfair to give it 5 given how complex other games are in worldbuilding.

• Grammar: ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
There isn't a lot of dialogue, so I checked the items and their descriptions for this assessment. It's fine, I don't think I spotted a single issue.

Have high hopes for this one

The graphics are crazy good, animation quality top notch etc

Gameplay is oddly addictive; what was an hour or two of frustration at first, quickly turned into more and more satisfaction when figuring out the mechanics of the game

10/10

It's a basic roguelike but the animation is so great. This is the kind of project that deserves to make six figures on Patreon, not all those RenPy games where every girl is a Daz Studio goblin. This girl's bodytype is choice. The jiggle physics are on point.

Played the October 2024 build. I hope future versions add the following:
1. Mouse-only control scheme, including camera control. This is a lot of work but it is worth it.
2. More environmental assets. The game needs more decoration littering the dungeon, and more tile variety.
3. Skin tone & armpit hair options. Plus a way to put your clothes back on.

There need to be more games like this where it's just straight into the gameplay without some bullshit story slowing the player down. This is a model game. It simply needs more content.

Aside from the well executed sex scenes, it's actually fun to play. Among a very select few horny games where the gameplay is not just tedium to get to the next secene. Could be expanded a lot, in both aspects. A very good game I will keep my eye on!

Dev is cooking with gas on this one!Hopefully they keep at it as good as they have, as so far it's hitting a good balance between Content and Game. If you like roguelikes/dungeon crawlers its worth a go.

Good porn scenese, fun gameplay loop like the old dungeon crawlers,
and full of potential. Love how the porn scenes are implemented in a seamless way complementary to the gameplay rather than the gameplay getting in the way of the porn.

Looking forward to seeing where this one goes!

Definitely one of the best games on this website right now.
Very few games on this website offer both good gameplay and quality
porn content. And this game nails it on both fronts. Love the premise of the game and the aesthetics, not to mention the grade A animation and character model. Good shit mate.

Hard Stuck is a refreshing turn-based dungeon crawler that offers a blend of engaging simple gameplay and appealing animations. Players navigate a procedurally generated dungeon filled with monsters and loot, with the primary objective of reaching the final floor. The character design includes a geeky, nerdy female character, adding a unique flavor to the game's aesthetic.

The game features a well-balanced difficulty curve, allowing challenges to increase progressively, which helps maintain player engagement. Each new game resets player knowledge. For example, potions and their effects are randomized, ensuring that gameplay remains dynamic with every playthrough.

While the game offers a solid experience in its current state, it could benefit from additional character options and expanded human interactions. However, it successfully provides a satisfying short-term experience, with the bonus of gallery scenes to unlock for those interested in completionism.

What makes this game truly unique is that the developer is always innovating and adding new content into the game. And not just a texture or bug fix, but costumes, scenes, a gallery once you unlock the scene, and all of these and more feel like they've been in the game since the demo. I think the only real change that would be worth discussing, in my opinion, is adding more info into the tutorial to explain the types of items you'll find and maybe the curses. But overall, very good. Please consider supporting the dev so they can continue to deliver excellent content.
