It really speaks volumes for how charming the writing is if I can't bring myself to get all the endings because some of them would require being mean to the magical evil skeleton wizard named "Vulcuzar, The Lord of Crawling Bone".
I did an LP video because I love this game, and now that I realize you're also working on Kiss/OFF, I'm even more excited for it. Gotta prepare myself for more smooches.
Hey, sorry to hear you're having trouble! We're looking into this – in the meantime, could you try downloading and launching separately from the Itch app? It might take a few tries, depending on your Mac's security settings. Please let me know if it still doesn't work for you!
This game is adorable, just had my first playthrough and it was great, so entertaining! The visuals are so cute, I love all the characters and their personalities and even though it's short it isn't lacking anything at all, it is a very fun game and worth every cent!
I played this last year when I was first getting into visual novels. I had never played anything quite like this before, and I found it to be entertaining and also surprisingly edgy! It's not really a dating sim in the traditional sense, but romance is involved, and choices DO matter! Honestly, I enjoyed it most for the great illustration, funny dialogue, and casual playtime required. The developers have just released a new game called Kiss Off too, which is supposed to have some similar charm. Don't take Bard Harder gameplay too seriously, but don't pass it up if it seems intriguing! It's a good romp.
The only adorable game where you can date a magical skeleton lol. Has good music and the drawings are really pretty too. It's also pretty gay from start to finish and I love the players gay panic.
Sweet and fun game, I loved the D&D session! I wish it wasn't so short and I could keep barding harder! Enjoyed all the characters and their interactions with each other, the art and music are cool too. Vulcuzar's story was funny and interesting.
Amazing game! Fantastic art, clever writing, and full of hilarious DnD shenanigans. Played this with my partner (and DM) and we had a ton of fun! Love that you can make the skeleton blush. XD
Also, the trailer is phenomenally hilarious and made my day all on its own.
Just bought and played the game for two hours!! I absolutely love it. It is super cute, in art style AND in dialogue. Super wholesome and I've had laugh out loud moments too. I got all the endings, and I've bard-ed hard!

I came here looking for porn and all i gotta say is, this looked alot like a porn game.
the name, the artstyle it just had the porn game vibe
honestly 90% of the internet would say "WTF!?!" as a reply but i came here for porn too
i came for the bard shenanigans, but i stayed for the trailer song that, fittingly, is also bard shenanigans
Such a quirky little game! Absolutely adore it!

Would love to play more adventures with this lovely gang!
This was one of the funniest visual novels I have ever played. Absolutely loved it from beginning to end.

Short, cute, and funny. Wholesome vibes.
Such a well-written lovely game, it would be a shame not to play it ! I had a great time, thank you.

Doesn't launch when installed to mac and launched through Itch launcher. It looks like it's about to launch then nothing happens

Bravo, developer, and thank you OP for pointing out the video is awesome.

Hi, just wanted to give a shout-out to this game and devs. I kinda shared something similar on Steam, but why not here too.
I wrote a little bit about this visual novel for my blog and provide some previews and outlines. Check it out if you like: https://mrdavepizza.com/bard-harder-review/

This game deserves to be so much more popular than it is. I enjoyed it tremendously.
