Hard Stuck
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
Hard Stuck is an erotic turn-based dungeon crawler inspired by the game that created the roguelike genre, "Rogue".
The goal of the game is to fight your way through a dungeon filled with monsters and traps to reach the last floor, discovering the functions of obfuscated items and interacting with various curios along the way.
The game can be played using keyboard, mouse or gamepad.
Features:
- Procedurally generated dungeons.
- Multiple monsters with unique sex scenes.
- Lots of items and curios.
Requirements:
- A PC that can use the Vulkan graphics API (Or alternatively DirectX12 on windows).
Notes on the linux version:
- You may have to change the x86_64 files properties to be run as an executable to get it to work.
If you encounter any issues with getting the game to run, try starting it from the command line/terminal. It will display any error messages the game throws before crashing or locking up.

The "Male on Male <Disabled>" option has been broken for multiple builds at this point.
For people not interested in yaoi, it basically shuts down 2 entire game features; allies and the summoning tome. Using either of them in the later floors basically risks getting flashbombed by a fetish you're not interested in. If you turn the wrong corner and stumble into one of the "incubus" type enemies, they'll charm your ally and the scene still plays, despite having it disabled in settings.
It also incorrectly unlocks in the gallery when the regular "Male on Female" version of the scene plays.
Sorry about that, I changed a bunch of stuff when implementing the lava siren and nightmares and forgot about the male on male tags.
I'll have it fixed in next weeks public release.
The unlocking of the female version is intended though, since it's essentially the same cinematic they now share the same id.
Sounds good about it being fixed going forward.
Them sharing the same id really seems like something worth reconsidering though. Somebody toggling off any of the fetish settings presumably means they have no interest in seeing that content; including in the memory/gallery. Splitting them so one doesn't unlock the other seems like a pure positive for the player; removing the potential of them accidentally triggering those when scrolling through the entries.
On a similar topic when it comes to the debug spawner room; really feels like it would benefit the player to have different sexes be their own entries. Having to repeatedly hit "reset" on the spawner because it keeps spawning the wrong one can be kind of annoying.
Will there ever be a cheat / spawn menu? just finished this game (really hard, took me forever) and i wanna unlock everything in the gallery without doing everything again under specific conditions
The update scheduled for next week will include a new feature for modding audio, so all cinematics will be unlocked in a new debug mode.
Might be a gpu driver issue. What gpu are you using?
i dont know to be honest
If you're on windows, open task manager, press processes at the top (If windows 11 press the heart monitor looking button on the left) press GPU, there it will tell you what it is!
Intel(r) HD Graphics 4600
According to the spec sheet, it's from 2013. So I don't think you'll get the game running great on it.
It also looks like it has issues with DX12 and newer vulkan games.
If you really want to play the game, you might get it running in opengl mode. It's not really supported and has a lot of graphics issues, but it might be an improvement judging by your screenshot.
With the game folder open, type cmd in the address bar to open a command line prompt at that location. Then type the following in the command line window:
HardStuck.exe --rendering-driver opengl3
Game crash problem, how to fix?
Would need more information to help you.
Which version of the game are you having issues with?
What are your computers specs? cpu, gpu, operating system and so on.
In latest version and hp laptop 12th Gen and everything is latest
Which model? Laptops usually have a model name and number like "SuperBook15-ec8329".
It might be written on a label on the bottom of the laptop.
Hp Laptop 15-fd0xxx
It seems that a lot of users with intel integrated graphics have a hard time getting the game to run.
You might have more luck with the dx12 build.
Hello! I have a feeling the answer is pretty much a no givin the direction of the game, but is there any chance that a futa option / item will be added?
The game lets you add boobs to the incubus and male lava siren / nightmare enemies at the customization mirror, which is kinda futa adjacent.
I don't think the current main character will get a penis option though, her animation rig wasn't made with it in mind. But another playable character might.
I figured as much. The idea of different playable characters on the other hand is news to me and has me very interested! Can't wait for when that update drops! Good luck & keep up the awesome work friend! <3
i really hard suck, i always have really hard luck, all the monsters want to hard fuck, it makes me feel like a hard schmuck, and yet i will continue to love and play hard stuck.
Oh my god this was so peak
The cum always seems to have a flickering, scanline-y texture on it. it's not game-breaking but it is a bit distracting and doesn't look very good in the scenes. any ideas on how i could potentially fix it, or is it just a part of the game?
If it looks like Z-figthing it's something I'm looking into.
It's caused by the bounding spheres getting different lighting.
Sorry, I deleted your comment for containing links.
As for your question, the game already has most of them.
Android version please
I'm on a hp laptop with intel core i5 and irisx graphics. vulkan can't get to the menu and the other one crashes at the end of a scene
According to the iris xe spec sheet it only has support for Vulkan 1. Which might be too low for the game, I'm not sure.
You could try running the game from the command line and see if any error messages show up.
Bro please 🙏 🥺 have an Android version
This game is absolutely masterpiece, nice work.
this game is perfect, please continue!!!!!
were you going to have any group interactions with like a recruit and monster ?
Have you tried the vulkan version?
The dx12 build can be a bit hit or miss.
Deleting the "shader_cache" and "vulkan" folders might fix the vulkan build.
On windows the folders are at: %appdata%\Godot\app_userdata\HardStuck\
On linux the path is: ~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/HardStuck/
Hey the game is very good but it would be better if you could add new content for example pregnancy
Sorry for the questions, I'm confused with what the water vials do and how you're able to get lavasiren scenes with goblin and kobold. Thanks!
how do you choooose the new characters it just goes back to the girl when you leave the mirror
the ability to change the "new characters" is just to customize those enemies
How are you guys getting the scenes with multiple enemies?
You fuck them when you have two of the same enemy within your range :3
Love the game. I saw we could edit some of the mobs and got sad when it wasn’t to play as them. Now I wont ask for you to make the player thinner, but can we at least get some good outfits? Maybe allow us to interchange the outfits? I only use the cardboard knight without the wrists and pads, sometimes the alp without the sweater and vest. I feel like alp bottoms and boots would go cheddar with cardboard’s bra.
Also, less important but, sometimes when booting up the game the T.V. and player model will be missing textures. Seems like all models will, as the models editable in the mirror were also missing textures. not the mirror though… weird. Uhhh I’m on linux and its probably a opengl problem I just haven’t sorted.
Again, love the game. Definitely in the Top 5 Best Mimic Chest scenes I’ve ever seen.
heres the error part of the log
Looks like the game is running in opengl3 compatibility mode. Which isn't really supported as the game relies on a bunch of Vulkan/dx12 only features
Which gpu model are you running it on?
Ah, that will do it. I have a [Intel Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller]; it has incomplete support for vulkan, so I usually have to force gl.
Weird how it works fine if I launch directly, though. The problem happens when I launch it from lutris. like I said, not too important; I just like to see my playtime.
Based mimic enjoyer
I still don't like you nitpicking about the 3D models; those are hard to do.
Besides the texture, which were a driver error on my part, I only asked for more costumes (valid), interchangeable clothes (that’s coding) and I only alluded to a skinnier player model(or using the editable mobs as a PC). Hardly nitpicking, just giving some feedback.
The game is really good. Keep up your great work
Also, I am not sure if I am just so bad or it is a balance thing but are there any tips for progression? I cannot get very far and finishing seems impossible, thanks
if you are looking to speed past the first couple floors, use the end keys and page up/down keys . my strat is to always speed run the first floor, assess my items in the shop area, fuck and sell to the pigman to get a bonus on items, and buy a mana potion from the vending machine . maybe spend another 100 on one of the statues towards the top of the room, depends how prosperous the first floor was . the game can get unlucky sometimes, so this is at least what gets my runs going .
Hi! LOVING THE GAME! NEW PATRON! WILL GO TO WAR FOR THIS PROJECT! Only, I'm currently running into a technical issue where the screen goes black and stays that way when descending from the second set of vendors where you first meet the blacksmith to the next floor.
I've tried on both the Vulkan and DX version and both are doing it. I did delete the shader caches which also didn't work, would appreciate any help in continuing the game!
If you are using Nvidia, try updating or reinstalling the graphics driver. If that doesn't work, set the Vulkan configuration within the Nvidia settings to Prefer Native.
Sounds like the game generated a faulty dungeon, there might be a missing staircase or something on the next floor. Try running the game from the command line and see if any error messages show up.
To run the game from the command line:
- Open the game folder.
- Type "cmd" in the address field at the top.
- In the command line type "HardStuck.exe".
I've been getting the flickering screen/all characters are invisible bug. This is what I get from the command line:
ListMenu: Pushing state [Game.Logic.UI.GameGUI+InventoryMenuLogic]
ListMenu: Close
ListMenu: Pushing state [Game.Logic.UI.GameGUI+PauseMenuLogic]
ERROR: 2 RID allocations of type 'class RendererRD::TextureStorage::Texture' were leaked at exit.

WARNING: 4 RIDs of type "Texture" were leaked.
at: RenderingDevice::finalize (servers\rendering\rendering_device.cpp:7130)
The RID leak things only happen when exiting the game. So everything looks normal.
The flickering screen might be a driver issue. Are you using the dx12 build by any chance?
Ideas Suggestions: A potion that turns the player into a FUTA, during that effect she can do the fucking and lose cum or some monsters can still anal her. 2nd, kissing and tongue sucking with monsters. 3rd, rifles and pistols, player still have to be in front of monster to attack but it's just to go well with the commando outfit. 4th, 69 scenes. 5th, 4some and 5some scenes with goblin and kobold using all holes and hands and mouth. 5th, Tentacle plant monster. 6th, cinematic shoe removing. 7th, egg impregnation. 8th, Spiders monsters. 9th, pigman helps removing cum with bits by fingering and licking.
floppystack. I really like youre game. It's such a good game that it's really hard to find anything like it. And in the future I'd love to see things like PeaceSeeker69 suggested.
Amazing game!
this is the best adult game on Itch
Hello, you make a nice game with a nice scenes.
that'd be actually cool, especially the last point
Very impressed! Lotta talent and basic fun here
I don't know what other game I was downloading at the time but I'm sure as hell glad it showed me this a recommendation this game is awesome and I can't wait to see it develop hell might even support it soon on Patreon I can see the potential it has.
Awesome work Dev
Is there pregnancy/breeding?
the belly inflates with cum overtime you can enable it in settings. Make sure you make offerings to the statues at the 2nd floor to withstand more amount of cum
能不能增加一个帧数限制,帧数太高使我的显卡啸叫
我打开了V-Sync还是1300帧数左右我真没办法了
You might have disabled vsync for all games in your nvidia/amd controller software. With vsync enabled the game shouldn't exceed the framerate of your monitor.
are there any cheat codes or something I can get? I just wanna see all the scenes
can someone help with a scene with Kobold? it says "Player, Kobold." it's the 5th one after Spitroast plz help I literally unlocked everything else
On the Start, click the TV, after go to bed make sure you have a Kobold and next click the bed then select Kobold
YOOO You're a G.O.A.T!! and DAMN That Kobold MF is CRAZY!!
I don't think I can recreate that
hi to the developer, is it possible to add other languages to the game besides English? I can help with Russian
I have no plans to include any translations with the base game files at the moment.
But if you would like to create a translation patch you can press F3 while on the main menu, and then select the "Generate Template" option to create a translation template text file in the game folder.
The same menu also has an option to reload a translation without having to close down and reopen the game.
Could you explain how I can do this? I have a translation template, but I don't know how to upload it to the game :/
The third line in the generated template tells you to rename the text file to "Translation.txt".
As long as the file is in the same folder as the games' executable it will automatically load when starting the game.
Or you can reload it from the same menu that has the button to generate the template.
