Version 0.3 public release

Hard Stuck
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Version 0.3 is now out of early access and features a bunch of new content.
Saves from version 0.2 are incompatible and will be overwritten on first save.

There's 1 new combat floor, 2 new neutral floors, 6 new enemy types and 13 new cinematics (+ 1 placeholder cinematic for the new neutral floor bath).

The game can now be played using a mouse or with a gamepad and input bindings can be reconfigured in-game.

The player characters belly now scales with the players cum meter. This effect is disabled by default but can be enabled in the settings menu. Cinematics also have a new flycam mode.

I'm aiming for a public release of version 0.4 sometime this summer.
Consider supporting me on patreon.com/floppystack to get early access to the next build.

Thank you to everyone that have played the game and a massive thank you to everyone who have donated here on itch.
