The poster is actually right about this, but there is no second part right now.
What they are referring to is a post I made on Itch in response to a question from a fan about the future of the game.
In short, I have 3 stories planned in the ABP-setting/world. This first game is based on an old script that I written long before I ever released my main game "The Survival of Sarah Rose". So producing this game was pretty easy, it was mostly me contacting the right artist (altough as people can see, that turned into it's own mess when they got sick).
For the other games, I have outlines, but I'd need to seriously sit down to actually produce the script, especially because they're each a lot longer/larger, and would have a lot of choices, whereas "First Contact" is basically a script with nearly no real impactful choices.
The 2nd game in the series is titled "ABP: Left Behind". It roughly takes place 10 years after this game. The Duaylin aliens occupy Earth, and you play as a female-protagonist that has grown up in this occupied Earth.
One of the big things that I wanted to explore with that script, is the idea of a heavily uneven gender-balance. So as a result of like 95% of the women being taken, you get something like a 1:20 balance of women to men.
How would that influence society? How would that influence gender dynamics? Do only rich/elite men manage to find partners? Does that breed resentment in an underclass that is hopeless? Does surogacy become insanely expensive as people's only hopes of reproducing? Are people/culture less sympathethic to same-sex female couples because they think reproduction is so important? etc.
But as I mentioned, the core issue is that this script only exists in outline, and I need to really sit down to write it all out, specifically because it has multiple love-interests and more impactful choices.
And right now, most of my attention is on working on "The Survival of Sarah Rose", so this 2nd ABP-game is probably still a ways off.
Just thought I'd post this so make clear it wasn't just someone making a joke, lol.
Totally understandable, that's why I felt like clarifying it haha.

Just a suggestion.
Maybe she could add that there is another race of female aliens that the men on earth can breed with, on the grounds that they have shorter pregnancies.
Would also be interesting given the lack of Earth women
I am aware that they have their own vision, and if they don't like the idea, they can ignore it.

This was a nice little story. I had no idea it was already completed when I started so I thought it would receive updates and you'd have to make choices and stuff if you wanted to help the aliens or not.
Weirdly enough,
About the art, I like the first one, it has it's charms, but I thought the sex scenes were better portrayed in the 2nd one.
Either way, is the first artist alright now? HappyDaedalus

Unfortunately from last I've heard; the 1st artist is still not doing so well.
It was very unfortunate because initially he was incredibly productive in his output. When it slowed down it wasn't initially a problem because "Alien Breeding" was going to be 100% finished in one release, so it didn't have the time pressure associated with it that TSSR does.
But when he himself brought up that he was facing crippling health issues, I really wanted to give him the space to focus on his own health.
I really enjoy creating these games and I especially like using artists that have unique 2d art styles (which I thought he had), but at the end of the day it's not worth harming a person's health over.

Yeah its indeed sad, though it left me to wonder if the original artwork will be redrawn in the style of the 2nd artwork or let it remain like that.
