So... It looks like Ariestra deleted his patreon. Is the game dead? Does anyone know what the last couple updates said?
Ari did nothing with his Patreon, it was Patreon itself that did it.
Don't assume things instantly without the real context of it.
Wanted to add to the list, Aisha is likely a reference to Aisha Belka/Antineira from Danmachi. Eye color and hairstyle checks out, and her very physical attacks align with the original character's background as an Amazonian warrior.

Guess you're not awared of new Patreon's Policy, right...?
Patreon made NSFW content illégal on its plateform... if Ariestra's account has been deleted, it's only because... well.. you'll be surprised... its game contains NSFW contents... which is.... you'll be surprised again... now illegal on Patreon...
Ariestra BTW, nice stuff, about Hannah, even if i would have like it not to be an accident (if you know what i mean), but still nice stuff.
Hey everyone,
I wanted to address the recent concerns and clarify what’s happened with my Patreon account.
My Patreon account was not deleted by choice. It was removed due to Patreon’s strict enforcement of their policies regarding NSFW content, which my game falls under. Rest assured, the game is not dead.
As XaiK said, Indeed, Patreon has become stricter with NSFW content. My account was flagged and subsequently removed due to these new policies.
Although I already appealed to Patreon's Trust & Safety Team, I have no guarantee that my page will be restored, so I’m switching to
Rest assured, that I am fully committed to finishing the game and continuing my work in game development, which is my greatest passion. Thank you all for your understanding, patience, and unwavering support.

Do you have any idea which specific content violated the policy?

Not very specific, the most "specific" thing on the message was:
"Under Patreon’s Glorification of Sexual Violence policy, Patreon has zero tolerance when it comes to works, real or animated, that glorify non-consensual sexual acts such as rape, sexual assault, or coerced consent."
Which is funny, since there's an unskippable disclaimer when you start a new game that clarifies that none of the content is non-consensual.

holy shit man, i love your game, even took some inspiration for mine. I wonder if mine will get banned too
I don't know if it's the case here, as I haven't played the game (although it has the rape tag here on this site), but disclaimers don't matter: if the content features rape, they can take it down. They don't even allow consensual non-con, which is perhaps the dumbest part of that rule.patreon said:
(Throwback to the days when DoL had that disclaimer about characters being adults, and animals being people in costumes.
)
It's rape roleplay.
One person will act like they don't want to, that they're being forced to, and such, but it's been previously discussed and agreed to. There's usually a safeword, like in other BDSM practices, because saying things like "please stop" are implied to be part of the roleplay.
It can also be used to give consent in advance for situations that may be considered non-consensual. For example: someone may consent that if they pass out after drinking or using drugs, their partner is allowed to have sex with them.
Any rape fantasy porn video out there is consensual non-con. Many even include the actress talking to the camera at the start to make it clear that it's all an act and that they're ok with it.
Damn that's crazy that they can just flip a switch like that. They should give you some sort of warning period so that you can plead your case or at least communicate with your supporters where they can now donate to you.
For those who are not signed into this site but want to know where to go, it's subscribestar, so just Google Ariestra and subscribestar and you'll find him. All those who were supporters please move your focus to subscribestar!

That's really disheartening to hear, not only for Ariestra, but for any major project that is being worked on by creators on this site, since so many of them have Patreon.
Then there's the question, who's the Patreon employee who's booting up and playing a bunch of porn games looking for rape scenes. Guy must have his own private office.

thanks for your work also for the promise to complete your game
I wonder how this new policy will affect other femdom content creators that I follow, and what steps they've made to keep their accounts? So far you were the only one of my memberships that disapeared off my list. Looks like I may have to go back to subscribestart, again...
How does patreon actually know they are banning content that is breaking the rules? Are they actually physically playing the games and downloading the content? If the content being promoted is only accessible by playing the game. You would think it would be pretty hard to catch non-consentual scenes. Or are sexual acts considered facesitting and domination considered non-consentual to begin with.

I don't think they actually play the game... My opinion is that they are looking at game previews and interpreting what they see simply, and therefore, even if the presence of the content is justified, they ban because the preview is interpreted as going against their rules (this is my theory, but I think that given the simplicity, I must not be far from the truth.)
