Hey everyone, hope your Halloween weekend is going well!
The next Harshville update will open up a secret area related to Pleasantview where you will, for the first time, be able to "invest" in human labor! It will be self-contained to the new area and I think will be a good step mechanics-w...
Wow, this one was really close! The choice was between having timed choices for high-stakes conversations for added realism and staying with the current system, where you have time to think everything through. I think both are equally valid play-styles in this type of game, but I wanted to see what ...

Hey everyone! This next update continues the Shireen arc provided you've been invited to her party. Get to know her friends and decadent ways in the privacy of her home, but don't let your guard down!
Also, I've been learning some playtesting tricks in RPG maker so the days of magical portals...
Hey everyone, glad to see Harshville reaching more and more people! As the project has grown I've gotten more experience with writing and building characters. Fun as it is to do that solo, I thought I'd invite some of the creative-minded backers into the writers room with me.
While the Creato...
Hey everyone, just putting some finishing touches on this week's build.
During the last content poll you guys voted for Shireen as the first character featured in the up and coming relationship system. She happens to be my favorite as well, so I'm pretty excited for this update!

Hey everyone, for this next release I've been writing some content for one of the first characters you met, Marta.
This story arc will open if you've been kicked out of Shireen's apartment and you ask her for help. It plays out slightly differently depending on whether you're already her bit...
Hey everyone, results of the next major area poll indicate that backers want the Shack Basement Complex next, so this will be the first iteration!
If you are unlucky (or lucky) enough to be captured by the Black Widows, you will end up working in their factory for a time with other captives. ...
Hey everyone, hope summer is treating you well!
This release includes some bug fixes for The Gilded Pine and some ground work for other features.
But the star of 0.3 is Claire, the gambler extraordinaire! You can find her down in The Holes on the guest side (so you'll have to fork ove...
Hey everyone, now that we've hit 25 patrons I think it's a good time to give an update about the state of the game! This week will be about polishing all of the new content and making it bug-free.
I've been running into an issue where I start doing just that, then get a kinky idea and go on a...
Hey everyone, tomorrow's weekly release is almost finished!
You can now be a server at the Gilded Pine, as well as explore an all-new

Hey everyone, for this week's update The Gilded Pine will open its doors! This is a cafe in Pleasantview where your reputation affects which jobs you can do. You can also be a patron if you have the money.
I thought it was important to reward people for having a high reputation (not easy in t...

Hey guys, Version 0.2 is almost ready for release!

The mine is basically an RNG game where you can find 4 different types of ore by expending the same amount...
Great news! Version 0.1 is finished and will be live tomorrow.
This update adds a lot of Danica content and implements various features like shock collars, the auction, and more.
I've decided that there will be two types of intermediate (non-polished) releases. Story/content updates a...
