Blender Custom Modular Parts
If you're unsatisfied with the modular walls available in the Daz store for your game, why not create your own?

These custom building components, which I designed, have dimensions of 1m x 2.4m (width x height). Both sides feature separate shaders, allowing you to easily apply different colors to each room without the need to duplicate or hide walls for larger scenes. The doors can be opened, and the handles can be turned, providing more functionality and realism.

I also plan to sell these assets through various storefronts that offer Daz products, helping to generate additional income to support the development of Hardenville.

Happy Halloween!

We’re excited to give you a sneak peek at two major branches in Hardenville: Episode 2!

Path 1: Stay at the house party and take a dip in the pool—romance and passion await.
In this branch, you’ll dive into a steamy pool scene with some of the main love interests, followed by the chance for a sleepover in your bed. Expect humor, heartfelt bonding moments, jealousy, nudity, and plenty of romance. If you choose wisely, the MC might finally lose his virginity, sharing an intimate and life-changing moment with a love interest.

Path 2: Hit the town for a wild night at a local bar with Sandra and Jasmine.
In this path, you’ll join Sandra and Jasmine for an unforgettable night out filled with drinks, daring escapades, and more than a little mischief. Make the right choices, and you’ll unlock flirtation, wild behavior, dares, erotica, and surprises that push the boundaries of excitement.

The choice is yours!
Each path offers a unique setting, storyline, and approach, featuring different love interests.

Here are some of the new tags for Episode 2:
Animated, Creampie, Groping, Mobile Game, PoV, Spanking, Teasing, Vaginal Sex, Virgin

Don't worry about branching etc, we will edit the scripts to play both parts, one after another.

Just keep bringing us the quality in dialogues and visual content as in the first two versions

Let's hope we get something by end of this year, which is probably wishful thinking (?)

The dev put up a poll on patreon to see if people want branches or not. games with branching paths can take longer to update so hopefully the 2nd option wins

Hardenville | Poll on Branches and Gameplay
Published 7. December, 2024

I’ve seen your comments and questions regarding the previous post about branches, and I’d like to get a clearer understanding of what you prefer—and whether you want branches at all. It’s crucial for me to create a game that meets your expectations, especially given our current position where we can’t afford significant missteps.

Our original plan was to make Hardenville somewhat realistic, where players occasionally have to make choices because certain branches occur simultaneously. However, if the majority prefers a different approach, it’s better for us to adjust our plans now rather than later.

Please share your thoughts and vote for your preferred option below. Feel free to comment with additional suggestions or ideas.

# **Sneak Peek #2 | Episode 2**

We're thrilled to share a sneak peek at the second of two main branches in Hardenville Episode 2.

This is not a pure true harem where you get all the girls, maybe a semi harem could be possible i think(NOT CONFIRMED BY DEV), if you are playing expecting that just stop before you start thinking you start becoming a dev hater saying "THIS IS A FAKE HAREM!!!" thinking you were lied to.
Just thought you should know before you are disappointed.

F95Zone Tag List

• Group sex [Sex act involving 3 or more people.]
• Harem [1 person being courted by at least 3 others, all engaging in consensual sex simultaneously.]

To keep things concise and to the point:

We’ve introduced 15 female characters so far, though not all of them have appeared in the story yet. We don’t plan to introduce many more, as this number is already substantial. Not all of them will be main love interests (LIs); some will serve as "side LIs," offering less content compared to the main ones.

Originally, we intended for each character to have a unique personality and distinct preferences in relationships. Some might be open to sharing, others may prefer exclusivity, and a few might experiment with threesomes without going further.

Here’s an example without spoiling Episode 2: You’ll encounter two major branches that occur simultaneously, requiring you to choose one. Each path allows you to deepen your connection with two specific characters. Choosing one path won’t necessarily lock you out of future romantic opportunities or scenes with the characters from the other branch. You’ll still have chances to gain points through later conversations and interactions. However, repeatedly avoiding a character will eventually close off their route. Additionally, if you decide to be exclusive with one girl, you’ll still have the option to cheat, leaving the moral decision up to you.

Some branches are planned to occur simultaneously, while others will take place at different times.

As much as I'm not a fan of kinetic novels, the glacial pace of updates will only get worse the more branching there is. Probably best to keep them to a minimum until there is more content, or maybe even save them for the next game.
I also think 15 love interests is about 9 too many for a first project, but hey Dev, I'm rooting for you.
Make the game you want and let the chips fall.

Episode 2 | Early 2025

Episode 2 is set to not only be the best release yet but also the one with the most content, the most lewd moments, the most romance, the best vibes, and the most wild, drunken fun so far.

As mentioned before, Episode 2 is crucial for the future of Hardenville and its continued progress. It is essential to justify the time and resources being invested in this project, which is why I must tread carefully and ensure its release is in the best possible condition.

I fully understand that the initial reaction to Episode 2 being scheduled for an early 2025 release might be one of disappointment. However, I encourage you to stay optimistic and trust that the extra time is being used to immerse you deeply in the story with high-quality renders, captivating writing, and atmospheric sound design. If I didn’t care deeply about making Hardenville the best it can be, I could have opted to release a shorter, unfinished, or "cheap" version of Episode 2—but nobody wants that. There are already many great AVNs out there, and my hope is for Hardenville to stand proudly among them someday.

On a positive note, I’m happy to announce that a small update for Episode 1 (Version 0.2.4) will be releasing soon. The entire script has been professionally proofread by an English expert, ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable reading experience. Moving forward, Episode 2 (Version 0.3.0) and all future updates will also undergo thorough proofreading to maintain high-quality storytelling and reduce any interruptions to your immersion in Hardenville.
