or... its a porn game in a dystopia.
i mean, it'd be like slamming a game with beastiality with PETA levels of critisism or something. or any game where someone gets raped starts to like it, or NTR shit being taken as serious political commentary rather than a poorly veiled gimmick to get off to.

might have a bit of a point, but i figure the point about just not enough content to keep people interested is apt - it's an issue a lot of devs have, even when there's like 2-3 fap worthy new scenes a month.
The problem is that the game takes itself very seriously for all the wrong reasons, if this didn't came with the audacity to claim it was about a positive and realistic representation of queer people, queerness and all the other buzzwords thrown around, I wouldn't hold it by those ridiculously high (for a porn game) standards, so, yeah, you got a point but I feel like you misunderstood my reasoning for being so critical.

you didn;t seem to actually SAY any of that, so not sure how i was supposed to just divine your intent, but to be fair i also don't recall them going "this is just like how queer folk would be irl", and tbh even then, my guy, it's a porn game.

you can go "oh the queer folk around where i live wouldn't be that down to fuck ASAP" all you want, but again, porn game, that's kinda the point, potentially alien world with different social norms and whatnot, dystopia where the entire city is being seemingly poisoned with sex pheremones, so that's kinda two more layers of "clearly this should be taken with a very large grain of salt for trying to compare it to real world conditions", and fuck, maybe like these 6 people or whatever are just outliers the game focuses on because, again, porn games kinda want to lean into the porn stuff.

Yeah well, you aren't making nonsensical claims, but you are kinda missing my point entirely...which is alright, I have no intention to convince you of my opinion about this game & what is - in my opinion ofc - severely wrong with it. I hope you have a nice weekend! :)

Hey everyone! It's build time! This months we have two scenes getting new lewd animations! Pearl three has some cute butt shots of HC getting her hole spread, fingered, and plugged, and Forcier 3 has some cyber-boner visuals :D Heathers arc also gets a new scene, and the scene-replay menu, found in HCs computer under 'Files', has been updated to include Mags & Quinns duo arc. Enjoy! And thank you all so much for the support!

3 lewd animations for Pearl 3
lewd animation for Forcier 3
New background for Mags & Quinn 4
New Scenes:

Heather 15

version - 0.0.97 - 3/1/23

Hey everyone! It's build time! This month we've added a new system! The apartment can now be expanded by talking to a renegade maintenance man who appears in the hall outside HCs door after Main 5 has been completed (or you've passed day 25)! Pay him a hefty fee, and you'll be able to increase the space inside ur apartment to accommodate all your neat decoration items. There's also a whole new furniture market that sells trinkets out of the Theater on East Root St. Check there on Mondays after Heather 7 has been completed. We've also added some new super-chunky items to the furniture dealer in the mall. I'm talking refrigerators! Desks! Kitchenettes! Everything you need to make your plastic pod feel like home :3 Anyway, thank you all so much for your support and I hope you enjoy the new stuff!

New Art:

Pinup still added to Joi 2
The hallway outside HCs apartment has been updated
Roof location added to HCs apartment building
Misc:

Room expansion
New furniture market

version - 0.0.98 - 3/31/23

Hey everyone! New build is up! This month we have a new location with a machine socket! You can now actually enter the backroom of the Candle Wax Club! That's right, that little doorway tease is a tease no longer! Nothing goes on there yet, but we'll be using the background for scenes and there's a place to plug in another income-earning fuck machine :D We also have a whole-ass new scene, featuring Mags and Quinn! Well, mainly just Quinn. Quinn drunkenly getting frisky in a some Pira City alleyway in the middle of the night. Besides that, there's also 4 new pieces of furniture in the mall, and one new piece in the Monday Market on East Root St. We've also added a thing where the background screen tint is disabled in dialogue when there's no foreground art being displayed. Not a big change, but it helps the work feel a bit brighter. Anyway, enjoy! And thank you all so much for the support!

New Scenes:

Mags and Quinn 6
New locations:

Candle Wax Club playroom
Misc:

5 new furniture items
New machine outlet
Slight edits to Mags and Quinn 5
Spelling fixes

version - 0.0.99 - 5/2/23

Hello everyone!! It's build day! Today we've got an art focused update that adds activity to the Candle Wax Club's playroom. Based on the day, 1-2 animated patrons can be seen pleasuring themselves and/or a partner. It's pretty cute. We've also added some polish to the D&D scenes, including thematic backgrounds. Finally, I wasn't happy with the titty-out still I drew for Pearl 2 recently, so I've added an additional groping still. This one has a lot more, let's say 'energy', than the previous one. Anyway, that's it for this month! Just some polish. The conclusion of the main scene and more scenes in Quinn's arc are coming soon though. Thank you so much for the support!!



New arts:

4 D&D backgrounds
3 Lewd CWC playroom animation
Lewd still in Pearl 2

version - 0.0.995 - 5/31/23

Hello everyone!! It's time for a new build! Now, you might be wondering why the version number looks even more nonsensical than usual. For quite a while, our plan has been to go from version 0.0.99 to 0.1 when we finally finished The main story, and despite last months release being 0.99, I'm not giving up! Main 15 and 16 are both big long scenes that have been in the works for a while, and due to big story-line things, need to be released in the same month. Well, that month is officially gonna be June! At the end of next month, main 15 and 16, the final rise and fall of Hardcoded's Hornomaly Mystery will be released! It's gonna be intense, with new music, new art, deep branches, drama, action, twists, etc! If you feel like replaying the main story in preparation for next month, I recommend you hold off! Next month is gonna come with story revisions that make everything a little smoother, story wise.

After main 15-16 is released, we're still planning at least one more Main scene, just to tie everything up and blow off some of the previous tension, but that will come after version 0.1. Apart from the tie-up, there will still be other scenes and of course art coming out after next month (Quinn's scenes, for example) before we release hardcoded and switch to fulltime dev of our next game, the Succubabe's Bathhouse.

Anyway! Let's take a look at this months content. We have 2 new lewd still in Cadence & Decima 7 and 2 new lewd stills in Heather 11! Check em out! There are three new furniture items available! 2 in the mall store, and 1 in the monday market. Finally, we've added music to more scenes and done a lot of editing. Thank you all so much and I hope you enjoy the new build!

New arts:

2 Lewd still in Cadence and Decima 7
2 Lewd stills in Heather 11
1 Lewd world art in Beryl & Misha 1
Misc:

Music added to several scenes
3 new furniture items added
Various spelling fixes

I was eager to see for more JOI sex scenes but oh well a pinup it's a pinup :)

Atleast is good to see updates during the Pride month, which is basically one of the main cores of this game <3

So as it is right now, is the game mostly completed or is it better to wait for the eventual 1.0 ?

I played this game months ago and loved it, but it took hours and hours of my time. Now I have a new computer and no save, I really don't think its worth going through again.

I wish there were cheats and or gallery, let me skip to where I was or at least enjoy the art in gallery form.

I have finally accepted that the game might not get completed until 2047. But once it's full release with all the conversations, and more content is available I will probably give it another chance. So far, animations and pictures are solid. Wish there were more but oh well. All in all, good game, but I am disappointed with the updating. It seems every update get's smaller and smaller...

For those who have played (& read) how far away do you think is the end of the main story ? Now how much extra content the dev adds isn't possible to know but just to have a rough idea.

I'm not really asking for a date, just if you think the story is coming to an end or not.
