Welcome!

I'm Quadruple-Q, the developer of 'Having a HARD Time', a story driven adult visual novel with mature themes, romance, humor, a beautiful cast and much more!

Synopsis

You're just an ordinary girl and a sophomore at Wentford University, majoring in Chemistry alongside your life-long best friend. You've been living a fairly carefree life until one day an after class science experiment turns into a freak accident, changing your life as you know it. You're no longer just a girl... you're more than that... much more.

About the game

This is an adult visual novel with many explicit lewd scenes, as well as a mature story that covers some heavy topics. The protagonist is female but eventually ends up with male genitalia (alongside existing female genitalia) due to a freak accident. The protagonist is attracted to females, thus this game will mostly feature romancing other females (but with the added benefit of penetration).

The game is currently in active development and is featured in an episodic format. This means that each update contains a full episode that has a lot of content, is polished, and can be enjoyed on its own without the need to replay content.

Currently there are 4 episodes available with many more to come. Buy the game now and you'll have access to all the future episodes (no splitting into seasons or stuff like that). New episodes are released around every 6 months.

Please note that if you dislike futanari-on-female content then this game is likely not for you. If you would like to try the game out first, there's a free demo available on Steam which contains the first episode.

About me

I am the sole developer for Having a HARD Time. I started this project because I had a story that I wanted to tell and also felt like there weren't enough high quality games with a futanari protagonist. As this is my first time developing a game I have learned quite a lot and have grown fond of the process.

Is the steam version missing anything compared to other versions?  This is the #1 best VN of all time.

Is Lateshya a romantic interest or girlfriend option? She should be given that she's hot.

any update on the next chapter release? Last update was posted in May, can’t wait!!

Got it on steam, but prefer to leave reviews here. Lots of fun, and what seems like an interesting story building behind it!

I'm confused. what does the "love others" variable affect? does it lower her chances of being an LI the higher it gets or something different?

This is a futa x female visual novel and it's really good. Keep it up dev. Recommended from this guy whose fetish is that especially since futa x female games/visual novels are low in supply. Nice diversity of characters and likeable main protagonist. Also nice branching options (the free time activities) which encourage different playthroughs. It actually feel like the paths diverge noticeably in this game. There are also nice minor details too with minor changes like not answering a call right away. 

For other similar and good visual novels like this (futa x female), check out Futagenesis Unveiled by TessaXYZ, and Eruption Imminent by Morrigan Rae. Like this game, good branching paths and choices with an enjoyable story and likeable characters. 

Yeah, don't abandon this like I've seen other developers do.

Dame this is taking forever oh my goodness what is going on man.

Looking forward to the next release! I'm enjoying all the different characters and their own personal stories. Keep it up!

Any news on next update? Also if I buy this now will I have to pay for any new updates?

There's no release date yet, but the next episode is estimated to be released somewhere in January. If you buy the game now you will get all future episodes for free, it's a one time purchase for the full game.

Thank You!

bought it for the lesbian futa fun, didn't expect to ACTUALLY get emotionally attached to the characters! beautiful character designs, and pretty solid character writing, big thumbs up!

(1 edit)

I mean no disrespect to those that are into it but is there an option in this game to turn off Futa/Futanari?

That's not possible as the futanari aspect is integral to the story.

Ok, thank you for the reply

May I ask how many hours would you estimate these first 2 chapters to last?

So, I would say maybe around 3 hours. But as it's a visual novel a person could go through it faster or slower depending on their reading speed.

Okay, just bought it after playing the demo super excited to see where it goes, Good Job with it so far :)

I dont wanna incriminate myself but I swear I've seen some of these Character Models in other AVNs

That can be, as the same Daz assets are available for purchase and use for all game developers using Daz3D.

I wasn't thinking anything malicious just an observation about my own degeneracy

futanari protagonist, finally

when is the game releasing on steam? 

Probably after episode 3 is available.
