I know the feeling, that's why I have guides attached, so you can skim read through stuff to get to the content you want

There has been some questions about if it is still active, the answer is yes. It is just taking way longer because I really don't have that much free time, the other reason is also that my ideas for this chapter went a bit nuts and it means more content, but you have to wait longer.
So here are some old patreon pics and one newer pic from the current build.

New Patreon post up and I'll try to post one of the patreon screenshots from the current chapter at least once every two or three weeks to let people know I'm still working on it.
Please, don't take this in a wrong way. It's just a... reminder.
People who chose to play games with "female protagonist" tag don't do it just to have a pretty picture on the left. There are plenty pics / movies with Little Caprice doing way more than just posing.
Also if people chose to play a game with sci-fi settings, they pretty much expect sci-fi, not western / farm content.
Cheers.

Space western is a sci-fi subgenre, and famed sci-fi franchises such as Star Wars, Cowboy Bebop and Firefly have many aspects of westerns in them (Roddenberry even describes ST:ToS as a sci-fi western)

The truth is I don't want to spoil too much so the screenshots are teasers aren't goin to blow their load but suffice to say I have a ton of pictures/ideas that are already in the game. But here's one of you in the holosuite eating a character out. There's also an option to go with a guy or dominate the chick. You also have to be creative with images, as sometimes you're using actresses who haven't shared a screen but it's not too obvious. I think it's lame when a character goes from normal to complete slut in one move, the dress she is wearing in that picture is going to slowly come off as we progress through the area.
And in reply to your other point it is a "holosuite" ala Star Trek and there are two programs you can run through (both entirely different) and you can avoid it entirely, it's optional and at the moment, there isn't even a real reward for it - I'll implement more ideas in future releases. Future chapters will likely have something similar and in different scenarios, as well as being "corrupt" and used as traps or training rooms.
But I don't want to go too nuts because we're still early in the game - I think you have a point, I've thought it myself writing the latest chapter but since it is in a "safe" area, it has been hard to have non-consensual content with the setting we're in. I want the game to become more deviant the further you get from the inner planets. But there is still a ton of sex scenes in the new chapter for the diplomat path and MC content.

In other news, new patreon post up and here is the one screenshot I promised just to show new content is being added! I'll continue to avoid posting spoilers when it comes to where it can lead, but you can use your imagination.
+ -> my point
x -> you
If you think SW became famous because it depicts one single frontier town at some point, you are delusional.
You mean Firefly who got canceled because of low ratings and actors had to make a charity movie paid with fans money?
No. I'm not going to debate with you the inability / unwillingness of american writers to create proper sci-fi settings. Would derail the thread and lead to a flame war. If you are interested to continue this little debate, feel free to DM me. Suffice to say american heroes are the cowboys not the knights, so using something related to audience is a marketing decision, not a creative one. For the rest of the world a cowboy is a peasant with a horse. For american audience is the embodiment or bravery and resilience. (And that's all I'm going to say in public on this matter.)
I totally agree with you about the lame part.
And I think you misunderstood me. Maybe the hint I dropped was too subtle? To quote someone "what we have here is a failure of communication". Your writing lead me to believe you are way above average porn creator ("omg hes filling my vomb with loads of hott kum"). Anyway, you posted teaser pictures, with zero lewd hooks. You are on a porn forum, advertising a porn game. To keep the pervs interested you have to provide lewd hooks ffs.
I'm not a big fan of non-con. I'd like to have a way out from a bad situation, not to have uhm.... content forced on my character throat. Also I honestly hope that you will be able to realize the difference between domination and humiliation.
And finally, I'm still not sure if this is going to be a visual novel, an adventure with multiple endings or a sandbox. Maybe you could bring some light in this matter.

I think it is a lewd hook, all of these situations can or could lead to getting into a bad situation and it is pretty much implicit. Like I said, the scenes are there I just don't want to post them because I consider them "spoilers" to a degree. If I post a picture of ALICE in a holographic simulation she has tried hijacking, for example, I expect people to use their imagination and look forward to play that particular section if they're a science character.
There is always a way out of a bad situation unless you've gone too far, then it's generally a bad end anyway. You could play the whole game without having sex once and the sex just being incidental.
I think I've said before it is akin to Deus Ex in its aim, where you'll have a hub area and be able to explore it, conduct story and missions within said area, before moving onto the next one. There could be a sandbox element in the middle chapter, but we'll see. It's an attempt to be like the old RAGS games which were story driven. If anything, it's more likely there will be "base building" elements.

I don't want to commit to a date because I'm a one man team and stuff comes up - this is why I paused patreon payments, as I didn't have time to work on it much. At the moment though, I am getting time in it and happy with it. It helps that I've done some under the hood stuff to make things easier for me.
I am aiming before mid-June, but this always assumes that I continue at my current pace. I'm in a good momentum at the moment and I am getting at least a section done a week, I anticipate the "upper levels" will be done. Roadblocks would be developing the lower levels, which I have some ideas for - they should, in theory, be easy. But you can let this stuff get away from you super easily.
The good news is that at that point, the two chapters after that -should- be much quicker as it is more linear and focus in nature, though the third chapter is planned to be rather short so I might add it as part of the update. Also this is when I'm going to focus more on making it clear about the affects situations have on a character, I'll be balancing and adding a few more stats too, I have some ideas that I've tested.
The bad news is that it'll be difficult for me to do a lot of work (or any) July and August.
If I'm in a good space next month, I'll upload a beta version with the debug menu on Discord that will have the boarding area and should have the upper levels completed at that point.
I for one appreciate a little bit of space western. I also hope the story will continue with other themes.
The great thing about SciFi is enabling a great variety of settings and situations, and I'm sure it will be great.

I think a lot of the world building already hints towards this. One of the TV channels talks about a colony that is set up like an old renaissance kingdom. There will certainly be an excursion to that world, but the implication is that there are other places similar. Gives me creative freedom to escape from the "typical" setting and a change of pace.I for one appreciate a little bit of space western. I also hope the story will continue with other themes.

New post about the science route in the next chapter! Here is a teaser image...
Completely forgot about an update last week to be honest.
Which path has the rape and/or prostitution content? Does that content exist without hypno? It's not as fun to me if the PC doesn't even know what's happening. (Or if the hypno is being actively resisted, that can be fun too. It's just brainless bimbo MC or mindless fuckdoll that kills it for me.)

I agree with you, at the moment a lot of the rape/violent content is in the military path I'd say. There is also the content with the teacher, which describes you being turned into that way. There is a part in the next chapter (which I hope to release in the next week or two!) which gives you full control and the PC still is aware, they just can't really do anything about it and it goes into depth about the despair and hopelessness.
I'll keep it in mind when writing some of the bad endings. One problem is that, at the moment, we're "too close" to the start or to Earth for me to go balls deep on this stuff. It'll make sense when we get to the meat of the game, the longest chapter will probably be Ceres and I'll have a ton of stuff like that.
If you didn't already, it would be a good moment to list which fetishes you'll explore in each choice - and maybe show that list when the player is taking one of the planned paths.
It is a nice way to avoid players reaching a scene which they may not find pleasant.
That is, unless every path has a little bit of everything, then it doesn't matter. LOL
