What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We believe that releasing Hardenville in Early Access is the best approach to ensure its quality upon the final release. By actively engaging with players and gathering their feedback during development, we can continually refine the game and present a product that truly resonates with our audience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Hardenville will remain in Early Access until the final chapter, Episode 9, is released in 2026. We are committed to taking the necessary time to incorporate player feedback, even if it means a longer development phase.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Hardenville's full version will contain more extensive content than the Early Access release. Starting with a short intro, The Prologue and Episode 1, the game will continue with planned Episodes 2 to 9, each aiming for 750 to 1000 images and 10 to 25 animations. This means a substantially larger volume of content compared to The Prologue. Additionally, if the story becomes too expansive, it may prompt the creation of a sequel.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Hardenville includes the beginning of the story and introductions to the main characters. In its current version the release includes The Prologue aswell as Episode 1, which will be followed by 8 more extensive Episodes over the course of the next 2 years.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Purchasing Hardenville during Early Access grants full access to the completed game, including all updates leading up to its release. Once finalized, the game will be offered at a higher price point, reflecting the additional content and polish.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Open dialogue and collaboration with our community are key components in shaping Hardenville's development. We've established a community on Discord , where we actively engage in discussions about the game's mechanics, gather player feedback, and explore suggestions. By fostering a collaborative environment, we aim to create a game that not only meets but exceeds player expectations.”
