That's correct. Early access is at least that many days, sometimes more, depending on various factors.

I am really glad that many of you are enjoying the game, and the feedback has been super helpful! Already have a couple of ideas for what 0.4.1 could include as improvements over 0.4.0 and I think it will get even better before wider releases.

(Feel free to DM me your thoughts. While I can't incorporate every piece of feedback, I do listen and want to make a really solid story)
I love the way you created the characters and plot. It's hard to find a game that is funny and has elements of NTRS or exhibitionism but is presented in a humorous and teasing way that is not too heavy and to the point of being called adultery. I really hope Ayumi exposes herself to strangers or terrace or does something more like that it would be very stimulating.
I'm not a sex addict, but sometimes playing this game makes me comfortable and suits my fetish

It's hard to find game devs that know how to write netorare, Exhibitionism, voyeur and teasing, this 4 go hand in hand and somehow this dev manages to to it with a consistent story telling, step by step further going into more teasing and ultimately the netorare with Terrace and Ari and maybe others and I Hope Torimiata isn't afraid of exploring this.
This type of games and devs are very rare and I feel they're always shamed and pushed back by several people on this website in particular that always hate this type of fetishes.

Unless you're conflating netorare with nts/sharing, I'm certainly part of that hater contingent. Netorare has nothing to do with exhibitionism and teasing, and is much more similar in tone to corruption/maledom stories. NTS/sharing go hand in hand with exhibitionism and teasing and all that fun. Again, I apologize if you're using the terms synonymously, but in my head they couldn't be further apart.

I feel like this game is early enough in development that this kind of response to people asking to rush the story is still somewhat acceptable (though rude and and a bit too simplified). I think that there is still place for more setup of the character's relationship. But I agree that eternally delaying the progression of sex scenes is the bane of existence of slow-burn games.
Personally I'd rather it stay perma nts tease. The tease is hot but actually allowing another man touch her nty, it's too wholesome as is.

As much as I like teasing, that would simply be blue-balling. Eventually it should commit to actual nts. But I very much hope that even then it stays wholesome.
I'd rather split route in that case. Idk I like the pillow talk more the actual thing is ick. I can get off to the tease since that was the point of it, so I'm not being blue balled and neither is the mc shes making sure he pops. Maybe for you it's more about the follow through. Nts always seems to turn ntr anyway. It's super rare for her boyfriends satisfaction to stay at the center of it. Like right now it's hot for her that shes being naughty for him and its turning him on. For me the moment her enjoyment becomes about what shes doing rather than his reaction to it it kills it, call me selfish.

I think it's a matter of whether your arousal triggers are more visual or auditory.

I kinda get it. It the same for me with anything except for porn. As soon as the topic of adultery comes up I get absolutely turned off, no matter wherever it is consensual or not. But even with porn I only like consensual nts, ntr just doesn't work for me at all.

I agree this should lead to a real NETORASE. Everything can be intertwined with exhibitionism sex and all sorts of other fetishes. It just has to logically increase the degree of pleasure .

Starting to get the vibe the dev is milking it.

Muted the amount of money earned, not releasing 7 day early access to $5 platinums and the start of annoying delays. Scenarios were 'ok' but not really impressed with the predictable writing in this update either.

Enjoy (0.4.0):

This is always a complicated topic so I'll try to keep it short but leaks significantly impact support and patron numbers, it's a tough reality for smaller developers.

Early builds improve through feedback. For example, 0.3.0 evolved from its initial release, I added animations and made major changes to the dialogue on the main scene by the pool. I want similar improvements to happen in 0.4.0. I just want to build a really great game.

The tier-based delay in early access is a key benefit for higher-tier patrons, acknowledging their extra support - which is massive! Unfortunately, earnings are a great motivator but not substantial income e.g. doesn't cover any basic expenses. It simply allows more focus on this passion project, which would've been much smaller without Patreon.

A word of advice, if I may : you won't be able to avoid people like this, that rationalize piracy and will never give you your due credits. Best to ignore them and not lose energy over it.

It's a regional sport here to call every and any devs a milker, to tell them they should release faster, that the updates are never big enough, not focused enough on the content they liked, etc etc...

Not to say that it's pointless to listen to constructive criticism, but don't lose your motivation over people on this website. They'll always make the minority of your patreons, that's just how most are. Cheap, trolling, never happy people. Better for your sanity to move on and ignore them.

Yes, best to ignore those people.
Rest assured, the longer you are working on the game and releasing updates, more people will be willing to buy a sub.
A lot of people on this site are looking daily in the "Latest Games & Updates" section, so with more updates, more people will noticte you.

I too once didnt give a try to some games, until I saw them pop up like 5 times.

I don't know if I was expecting too much or not, but this update kinda disappointed in terms of... Idk corruption? Growth? In the first version, Ayumi shows her breasts on the beach in public, which I can tell was a big move for her and she was self conscious about it, but did it for her boyfriend because she could tell he enjoyed it and that made her enjoy it. In the second update, a lot changes. She starts wearing a bikini that is much bolder in front of her boyfriend, and in front of her boyfriend's best friend. She sees her boyfriend's best friend's penis, and she streaks in front of her best friend's boyfriend. In addition, at the end of it she almost shows her breasts/loses her top in front of Terrace. 0.4.0 felt like the pace slowed down/changed and Torimiata decided that Ayumi's corruption/growth needed to slow for some reason.

I can't tell if I'm expecting too much too soon or if the pacing really did go from being super fast with everything happening, to pushing the brakes a little. It just felt like nothing really substantial happened this update unlike in the previous ones. Like Ayumi's corruption/growth didn't continue from the last update. I guess you can't really keep up at that pace either though as the game would be over in a few updates. Idk. Hopefully the future contains skimpier bikinis and more exhibitionism. I can't wait for the next update regardless.

The process from 0.3.0 to 0.4.0 remained consistent, with the same tiers and pricing as when I started on Patreon.

The main difference was the release cycle – instead of a typical month update with 2-3 key scenes, 0.4.0 expanded into a two-month release cycle. With the amount of content you would expect from the longer release cycle.

Patreon support isn't for everyone, and that's completely okay. It's a way to support projects you believe in, but it does come at a cost. If it doesn't align with your preferences, I totally understand and respect that, the game will get released to public after some time anyway, for free!

I will however, take the other posters advice, just wanted to make it clear for anyone reading.

Some people never want to leave the teasing stage, some want to jump straight to gangbangs! :D

I jest, that's great feedback, I will make some improvements to 0.4.0 that might help some of that, but there was a strict goal with 0.4.0, here's a bit of insider info (spoiler alert!):

Dang that link was taken down quickly, also the platinum memberships are no longer available on Patreon so you can't even get the new update unless you pay for the higher tiers :/

I don't get why people are in such a rush to escalate the sex stuff. I think the update has just the right amount of progress. It wouldn't seem right to jump straight into sexual interactions with terrace, the characters first have to come terms with their desires, to test the waters. This update is just that.

But even in the next update I wouldn't want the game to rush straight into sex, some more buildup and lesser interactions are necessary, though stalling at just exhibitionism wouldn't be right either.

First, for the last time:
View attachment 3256410

This tier did not ACTUALLY receive content 1 week before release as promised in the description. You could easily get reported to Patreon for this. You dodged everything that I said just to repeat yourself.

Secondly:

Here's (0.40.0)!

It has always been about checks and balances. The unfortunate reality of game development, especially on f95, is that there are more cases of milked and abandoned projects with mysteriously unpaused subscription revenue than there are successful ones.

Not sure why Torimiata is ignoring the claim that he blocked off early release for limited platinums. Obviously, tiered release dates are normal (though this was late by a month so this is not a normal release as 0.30 was). The problem in question is ignoring the fact that you created a limited platinum subscriber section and then scamming them out of their benefits on top of now muting the amount of money you make to deflect criticism.

Hopefully nobody exists purely to discourage developers. For any normal developer, revenue is generated upon completion of a product. Patreon is the opposite. While with its own flaws, it has massively enabled developers a more comfortable and agile development process, completely circumventing the constraints of development. The only caveat is that developers have to be honest (preposterous, I know).

I appreciate the game and most of the work thus far and don’t seek to discourage the developer but have some humility when you fuck up.
[/Q
Even if he messed up something with the release, it doesn't give you justification to leak the game early. That mistake could be easily rectified with communication. You obviously took this situation very personally, given your reaction. However, you have probably impacted the development of the game with this little stunt. If we want more updates, Tori needs to get paid so that they can work on the game and make it even better. Any amount of income means they can spend more time making the game rather than working a day job. Super disrespectful.

All platinum has access, the other tier will get soon-ish, public access will get it later - at least 1 week from everyone else. What is there to understand? It should be pretty clear - feel free to report me to Patreon if you truly believe is something wrong :rolleyes:

If you were acting in good faith any mistake with the release you would go through the trouble of properly explaining.

As I said in the previous post, the monetary compensation doesn't even pay for the bills but it's what allows the regular development of the project since it's a passion project.

The only reason I'm even replying is to make sure the story is straight and you are not telling lies.

Don't hide behind the farce of a hero for doing this, you are just ruining it for everyone.
