Really wish someone would burn Patreon and Paypal both to the ground and then such patches would be unnecessary. Other payment processors and middlemen sites do exist who don't care about content (ie SS, Boosty, Itch, Pixiv fanbox, etc), esp when it's just made of cartoon renders instead of real life actors. This site alone is good enough for exposure/advertising, and on your SS creator page you can put your other art/AVN's not allowed here (plenty of dev's make several AVNs catering to a wide variety of kinks, not all of which are legal everywhere).I've decided to retire my patches. I feel they're hack jobs since I don't know a thing about Ren'Py and don't have the time nor desire to learn about it and I'd rather not upload patches that are sub-par in their technical setup. I will leave the patch for v0.85a of the game here. It will continue to work with future versions, but some future dialogue may become awkward depending on the words used; I haven't had to make many custom adjustments, so it will mostly be fine. I'll stick with making patches for personal use from now on.
I do believe the regex setup I've used to change dialogues is a nice method of approaching these patches, since most games end up with unnatural dialogue between characters when words like landlady and roommate are simply replaced. If you feel the same, feel free to reuse the expressions I've set up so far in a patch of your own if you like. I have attached my original .rpy file to this post.
Thanks for the kinds responses I have received for these patches.
