version - 0.0.9 - 11/1/22

Hey everyone!! It's time for a new build! This month we have more changes to the Heather storyline! A brand new scene, Heather 11, has joined the mix :D The cafe minigame has also undergone some changes, which are detailed below. Our goal was to make it less glitchy and to raise the skill ceiling a bit. The timer now freezes while customers are placing orders, and the possibility for higher time bonuses makes the game significantly easier. We've balanced this by adding a new micromanagement mechanic. After the hot beverage taps are used several times, a water reservoir will need to be refilled. There are also a few minor art updates to the minigame, including background and UI. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the update! And thank you all so much for the support!!

New Art:

  • 3 lewd stills of Bru added to the cafe progression

New Scenes: 

  • Heather 11
  • New miniscene added to the cafe

Cafe Minigame:

  • Minigame pauses while orders are being placed
  • Consecutive perfect drinks award additional bonus time
  • A water-management mechanic has been added
  • Scoring metric has been changed
  • High Score and Longest Perfect Drink Spree number are now recorded and displayed
  • The position of Candy and Peach has been changed slightly
  • The far right side of the minigame background has been updated
  • An effect has been added for when the minigame closes
  • A steam effect has been added to the drink, which increases with each hot liquid added to the cup

Misc:

  • Drone-pet dialogue portraits added
  • Joi's room art added
  • Root street theater background art added
  • Backstage background art added
  • The Lemon visual glitch has been fixed
  • Slight change to the background in Heather 10 and Main 6

Is there a way to open a menu in game that lets you close the game? I am trying to make it work on steam deck but I can't figure out any way to close the game and steam can't force it to close and it causes everything to glitch out if I try. The only way I've found of closing it on steam deck is to restart the entire system.

No, there's no in-game way of closing the game. If it would help with getting it to work on steam deck, though, i could try to add something. How are you running this on steam deck??

The steam deck is actually a full Linux computer. It has an option to switch to desktop mode then you can use a browser to download stuff, then use the "Add a Non-Steam Game..." option on the desktop version of Steam to add it, then switch back to gaming mode, and it will be in the library. The Linux version of Hardcoded runs fine except for the inability to close it without restarting the device.

You exit the game by pressing the steam button and scroll down to 'exit game'.

I tried that, everything glitched out and the game did not close Edit: I just tried it again and it worked this time. I don't know what's different

I actually have a different steamdeck problem. I've mainly played the game on steamdeck and backed up my steamdeck save files before installing the new build on steamdeck, but the game no longer sees any save files. I've tried overwriting the save files with the back up multiple times but no change. The backed up save files do work on pc so the files don't seem to be the issue.

There's a couple of minor typos in the dialogue when you use the anal beads given to you by the pillory mistress; on the second page of dialogue the word 'probably' is misspelled and 'won't' is missing the apostrophe punctuation mark to make it a contraction.

Are you on something like Picarto, by chance? It was great to see you making art in real-time on Discord streams.

I've been really enjoying this patch and digging into the main story! That said I found a glitch in Main Story 14 - after Beryl brings out the bottle of Berryglug, there's a bit where Olivia takes a swig, but instead of Olivia's dialogue portrait it shows Quinn's! Not sure if anybody had reported this bug yet, and I'm not sure if I can reproduce it, but I wanted to let ya know.

One more report!! I've been playing through Heather's story and just completed Heather 8, but I noticed that HC's character icon is still in her cosplay outfit rather than going back to the outfit I gave her. It's even persisted as I've gone into playing other character stories. Not sure if it's just a momentary glitch on my end but I figured I should mention it!!

OOPS never mind, I just realized it's cause I didn't change out of the costume after the convention scenes... False alarm! :'B

I havn't done an art stream since I left the server. I did enjoy those, though, sometimes. I'll consider doing non-discord streams or like, joining the discord and doing streams every once in a while.
