Hooked!
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
What is Hooked?
An 18+ Visual Novel set in the early 2000s, about three girls trying to make their way into the adult entertainment industry! They meet you, a clueless fisherman, who has no idea about his potential.
The three main girls in the visual novel are:
- Helen (the goth girl)
- Hannah (the mean girl)
- Max (the nerd)
Get to know the girls closely, and make fun naughty videos with them! It's a comedic, lighthearted and goofy story filled with lewd stuff!
Where do I get Hooked?
Get the first two chapters free right here! As new chapters roll out, I will be making more of the older chapters free.
There are currently four chapters on patreon, available on the 5USD tier!
Chapter five is currently in development.
How do I install Hooked?
PC: Unzip the folder, run hooked.exe, and you're ready to go!
Android: A bit more complicated, but look up any guide on how to install an apk and you'll be golden!
Mac: Extract the zip file and run the file that pops out! Make sure you allow programs without trusted authors in your security settings.
When will I be able to buy the full Game?
I am planning on releasing the game on Steam and Itch once it's complete, or close to complete. It's still too early to tell when that will be.

might be the best character design in AVN history, 10/10
Got patreon, the art is incredible and max is best girl
What are the credits of the music named "Oblig 3, Kris.ogg" ?
I can't find it on the credits and this music is awesome.
The artist is staying anonymous for now! I am trying to talk them into getting a pseudonym but no luck so far. I'll let them know you send your love, though!
Oh ok, thank you for the reply and keep up the good work :) !
outstanding game, the story, characters and scenes are amazing, cannot wait for more!

Gorgeous art style, I really hope you don't lose interest in making this game because it's got potential to be the best one on this entire site in the adult genre!! Really looking forward to future updates

Thank you so much!! I am definitely planning to finish this game.
Payment processors are deciding what we can and cannot sell on Itch io and Steam. That means NSFW games like this are being targeted. Devs and consumers! Act before it’s too late:

Awesome share. Payment processors should not be the ones making these decisions, nevermind the Council of Karens at Collective Shout.
Hey man , Amazing game uve got here , everything from the effects to the storyline to the sounds , its perfect , i wanna know when will chapter 3 be free and where can I play it , coz for now I played the first 2 chapters from itch. Also its on steam Wishlist , does it include the full game (all chapters) or just the first 2 (aka free ones).And if u don't mind me asking how do u create such games , like these exact graphics , sounds etc. etc. , like is a software or what? Oh and one more question , if u don't find it personal
How much do u like earn in profits with these games , coz I'm also thinking of starting to create games
thank you , and please keep dropping masterpieces of games like this , much love
Hey! Thanks so much for the feedback! Chapter three will be out once chapter six is finished. It's a bit too early to say when that will be, since I just finished chapter five last month.
The Steam demo is the same as this one!
The graphics of the game are made with Blender. The game itself is written with Renpy. I didn't make all the audio, so I can't really say which softwares were used, but I edit audio with Ocenaudio.
I won't discuss my income on here. But I can share with you that I've been doing this for about a year and a half, and it has been much better for me than the animations I did before.
Thanks for you're reply , ur an absolute legend for making a game like this , for putting you're time and effort , and I jus wanted to say keep going and make games like these , its completely alright if u dont wanna discuss ur income , im just glad its going good 4 u , also ik u probably jus started making chapter 6 but I know its gonna even better than the recent ones , (one question: did chapter 5 end with the main guy and 3 girls in nitehawks room about the view the porn vid they recorded ? When we were about 2 see it , the game took me back to the main menu , idk if thats something in the game or its jus my pc acting up , either way it was a masterpiece)
I hope u keep dropping games like these in the future and ill be ur no1 fan ( a lil motivation for ya) , much love
peace
i've gotta give you your flowers because holy shit this is perfect, best story and visuals i've seen in a long time
Best virtual novel wish there were more like the same 90s vibe you got with this
When are there gonna updates on the android version?
Hey, thank you! I publish one free chapter per every two chapters, going through them linearly. Since the next free chapter is chapter 3, then it'll be a while until chapter 5 is free, yeah. When I release the next chapter though (chapter 6) I'll be making chapter 3 free.
This is one of my moat favorite games, second only to ripple, i really hope for an update soon.
Thank you so much! I will release another free chapter once chapter six is released.
Helen best girl? This game could be only about her and id be just as happy with it. Fantastic work!
I'm happy you like her! She doesn't get as much love as the other two as far as I can tell.
Hello, Mr. BlenderKnight. I just wanted to say, this is THE BEST game I've played on itch.io so far. I love everything about it, from the Y2K aesthetic to the likeable characters, funny dialogue, goofy story, incredible artstyle, everything is absolutely perfect! Great work!
That said, I had a question regarding the soundtrack. The scene directly after your "encounter" with Hannah in the dressing room. There's a really cool track that plays as you talk to the girl (Hannah's friend) at the cash register. I searched high and low for it, checking the credits a full three times, but neither I, nor shazam could find it. I would be greatful if you could tell me the name of the track, thank you very much. Best of luck in the future!
Thank you very much for the kind words!
The composer will definitely be flattered to know this! At the time, they are choosing to stay anonymous, but I let them know every time someone requests to hear more from them. I am trying to get them to put themselves out there, but that'll be completely up to them.
This is quite possibly the best visual novel i've ever had the blessing to play. You are incredible at your work, and i can only dream of the day when the full game releases. I'm at a loss, really. Congratulations.
That's amazing to hear. Thank you so much for the kind words!
Hey man, I just wanted to say your game is amazing, seriously well made. I noticed there’s no translation for other languages besides English, so I went ahead and started working on some. Right now I’ve got Portuguese, Spanish, French, and I’m planning to do a few more of the most common ones used in games, like German, Italian, Japanese, etc.
Just wanted to ask if you’re interested, or if you already have someone working on translations, or maybe you're doing them yourself. I grabbed the Dolphin patch from your Patreon so I’ve only got up to Chapter 5 for now.
Anyway, if you wanna chat, hit me up on Discord: zerb0133
Not asking for anything in return, just thought your work was really awesome.
That's awesome, man. I'll definitely take it as a compliment. When it comes to translations, I've got a possible deal through the publisher for it. So I might have to get some news from them about it before I can reach out to anyone. I'll let you know!
No worries man! Really glad you liked it. Totally understand about the deal with the publisher, no rush at all. If at any point you need help with translations, I’m around.
I join the cause, to translate the game to spanish in my case.
This is easily one of the best games I have ever played. I don't comment on many games, but this right here should set the standard for amazing quality games on this site.
That's quite the compliment!! Thank you so much!
Antes de esto probablemente nunca lo habría jugado, no por que fuera un mal juego si no por que no estaba disponible para Android en ese entonces de manera segura ahora que finalmente lo jugué puedo decir con seguridad que esté juego es increíble. El diseño de los personajes y los personajes en si son de hecho lo mejor que he tenido la oportunidad de probar en un juego NSFW si tienes más proyectos como este definitivamente los voy a probar
Hey Dev!
I just made an account to say how amazing this game is!
Everything about it is genuinely phenomenal.
The Character Designs, The CHARACTERS (i love helen sm), THE ANIMATION! OH MY WORD THE ANIMATION! The dialogue is so much fun, while also having really nice intimate feeling moments, and the whole thing is just exactly what I want in a NSFW Visual Novel.
idk how to end this comment so...
I will eat up ANY content of Helen forever,
and keep up the amazing work!
Thank you so much for your feedback, it brightened my day! I'm really glad you enjoyed it :)
Olá, parabéns pelo seu ótimo trabalho nessa última update, ficou incrível!!! Queria te perguntar, se o jogo vai ter algum sistema de gravidez nas meninas?
This game is peak.
The animations are one of the best I've seen. they are so fluid and it doesn't crash your PC.
The story is very entertaining and I like it that sometimes the Characters do a more deeptalk.
The Art and the Character design is I think THE best i have ever seen.
I've played it a wile ago, when you could only play the fist episode on the free verson and since then i have been waiting for the following updates.
Awesome man, thanks for leaving a comment. Really glad you enjoyed!
Thank you very much for your kind words!
Looks great!, anims are clean af, the story is definitely.. interesting, not my usual interest but is drawing in, couldve make the main char a bit smarter tho tbh, keep up the great job, defo will buy when its finished!
not over exaggerating when i say this game is probably one of the best games i've played!
i do have a question tho, will you make a dedicated discord server to send development updates/announcements or will they only be posted in select sites just like itch/patreon?
nonetheless keep up the good work!
btw: max is best girl, hands down.
Thank you thank you! I love the Max appreciation.
I have a discord server with a public channel for updates/tweets/etc. At the moment I'm not sharing the invite everywhere, cause I'm a little scared of flooding the discord. But I will probably have a discord link somewhere in the game, or on the game's pages (itch, steam) at some point once I feel ready.
totally get that, no pressure at all! just knowing there’s a server out there is already cool. i'm just so hooked (ha get it?) at this great game!
please keep up the very good work!!
will this masterpiece be playable on mobile iOS? I really love this series and would love to be able to use this on my phone instead of having to look up video gameplay on it, as they usually have bad commentary, and take like 10-15s per dialogue
Atm I'm not sure how viable it is. It's a lot of extra work releasing on iOS, and iOS support is still a work in progress for the renpy platform. I do have hopes of releasing it on iOS some day though
An iOS version is definitely doable, but there are some technical hurdles.
Ren’Py (the engine the game uses) doesn’t offer full native support for iOS yet—it requires a Mac, a developer license (100$/year), and some pretty careful tinkering in Xcode to get everything working smoothly. Plus, Apple has strict UI and content guidelines, so even if the game runs well, it’s a whole other beast getting it approved for the AppStore. Also, things like app size limits and asset compatibility can make mobile optimization a bit time-consuming. Just might take some extra time and patience.
Workarounds
Thanks for the reply!
Yeah, the Mac and the developer license is what's stopping me at the moment... Most likely if I evern am to do it, I'll involve someone else who can help me with it.
Then there's the whole Apple store thing. I've got no hopes of getting my game approved for the Apple store. Is it possible to build apps on the iOS without the AppStore? Similar to .apk with android, I mean?
yes and no! the thing is from a dev perspective u can install apps from outside the AppStore (
.ipaiOS app archive) using a Mac for 7 days or permanently using a dev license similar to android.But normal users will need to jailbreak there iPhones to do that which stopes updates, increase risk and vulnerabilities if they’re not careful what they’re installing.
The only hope is Alternative Stores which do similar job by auto-refreshing the install of the
.ipafile every 7 days, and need to be installed on iPhones via a PC/Mac using the giving installer from the AltStore website.Simply amazing. A perfect mix of lewds, laughs, and all-around lovable characters. It's almost like watching a 2000s sitcom, except it grew up to be just as nerdy and perverted as us. The graphic and animation quality are insane. I don't have anything against HS/KK, but the animations tend to get repetitive when they're in every single game. Here, everything is unique and feels personal.
But the real kicker- the perfect goth gf has abs?!? 💀🖤 I couldn't possibly feel more catered to in this lifetime. Thank you for the experience thus far and I can't wait to see the rest of it!
Thank you for your review! I really appreciate it, and am super happy you liked it !
Yo i just gotta say this game is amazing dude keep up the great work in the chapters to come
Thank you so much! I will do my best to keep the worm up!
Is chapter 5 out yet?
I will announce it when it's done!
Oooh I can't wait!!
sooo this Game kinda got me hooked in wanting to make a VN with Blender myself..did you make this game entirely in Blender or did you need other software for stuff like Rigging presets for facial expressions and gestures etc. if it's ok to ask?
Visuals made entirely with blender!
this is my favorite avn that ive played. all of the refrences to the 2000s really hit home. plus the animation, characters, story are all top notch.
I really appreciate it! The 2000s setting is something I'm really into. I'm having a lot of fun making all the retro technology!
Its so weird thinking of the 2000s as being retro. It definitely doesn't feel like 25 years has passed. Fuck, I'm old as balls.
Lmao I feel you. Idk how old you are but it's definitely relatable. I had a scare yesterday starting my 3DS for the first time in years to play Majora's Mask on it, and it said the last time I played it was 2015. Weird how a decade can feel so short
one of the few games i really dont mind paying 5 bucks for cause its a good game loved the first 2 chapters so yea may get it
"Chapters three and four are available on patreon, for only $5USD!"
Yeah, but when chapter five comes around on Patreon, you'll have to pay $5USD again, and when chapter six comes around you'll have to pay one more time. And so on. I prefer staying itch.io, where you only pay once.
I feel that, like we aren’t asking itchio to be on the same updated schedule as Patreon but at least put the game on here for us it makes no sense and it’s just greedy
I am releasing older chapters for free on itch. There will be more free chapters in the future. I get that you want to purchase the game, and I appreciate that, but there is no need to be rude. Once the game is complete, it will be available for purchase on Steam and Itch.
exactly, rn its only a work in progress and you DONT need to pay to get the game, you can wait, its only optional if you want the newest and theres also free to know if you will even like the game.
its for people to show that they appreciate and want to see more and dont mind spending 5$ a month to support you
Wasn't trying to be rude, so I do take back my comment on the "greedy", I am just worried because there are so many GREAT projects out there and its get ruined by the Patreon money, I've seen devs promise an update for 4 years straight and nothing (I won't point out names) that's the only reason why I said my comment. I was only trying to give good criticism, not hate.
una pregunta, ¿que es "blenderknight.hooked.program"?, ¿es un programa para poder jugarlo en pc o?
You are referring to "blenderknight.hooked.program(...).apk"? .apk files are for android phones. I see I have forgotten to mark it as an android file. If you want to play on PC, you need the "Hooked-0.2.0-pc.zip" file and nothing more!
gracias!!!!
this style is like my favorite of all tim
Why max is here and why i'm not using him
