A downloadable game for Windows

Before Hard Time found fame as a 2D Mobile App! enjoyed by millions of people, it started its sentence as a 3D adventure! After watching TV shows like Oz, I always felt there was a place for a gritty, character-driven simulation of life behind bars. Here, the drudgery of it was embraced to create a tense survival sim - where you had to eat and sleep amidst a backdrop of constant violence without losing your mind! The wrestling games had given me a good pedigree in trash talking and gang violence, so this was the same thing transplanted to a different setting. The "turn and advance" controls weren't ideal compared to what would follow in later 3D adventures, but it was a step in the right direction.

Hello mdickie, I'm interested in your game, but it's hard for me to play it because of the language barrier. I want to translate it into Russian and, if possible, voice it. I have already contacted you by email. Please could you help me with this?

A Virus? What do you mean?

(+2)

games on itch aren't generally .exe's but i trust you mr dickie

did you regret the decision or can i trust this

lol i havent even booted it yet but i imagine someone else mustve by this point and been able to comment that its safe or unsafe before being locked away in MDickie's infinite prison(s)

I mean i can run it through VirusTotal And Send A Link. Plus I don't Think Itch.io Would Allow Viruses On Their Site.

yo, i finally tried the game. mb for saying it was a virus. its just really laggy is my only complaint

Just click the title of the game on on his website. I putthe link to the PC download/install for all of his games that are all at least 10 years old below.

all of the games are virus

@MDickie, whenever I try to play this the game stutters and lags ALOT. Any way to fix it?

(-1)

Maybe A Computer Problem. Maybe Try And Lower Screen Resolution

Hey, MDickie, great prison game. Does my character that has no health left usually survive after its green health bar goes up a bit? Cause it starts coughing a little bit, then its health bar goes up a bit.

Your character should survive.

Also, besides the green bar, if the YELLOW bar is drained out, then does that mean that I have no control over my character or something?

Sorry for the late response, but yes.

Hey i accidentaly reported you instead of replying sorry

It's all good, no harm no foul.

And one more thing to tell you: when I get arrested by a warden for terrorism, what does it mean when the arresting officer says that the colours don't run?

Since i made this game so long ago, i forget the meaning. Big Let Down, Sorry.

its like a mental health bar when you have none you get a mental breakdown
