I'll probably end up waiting for the itch.io release, but definitely intend on purchasing. Would love to buy on Steam, but keep my social life and lewd life separate as much as possible ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
"damn bro you got 100% achievements on Future Fragments, how did you get the one where you need to fuck every enemy before killing them?"

To that note, if anyone IS interested, I can post the full list of achievements, although a few will be vague to avoid spoilers/giving away how you get the achievement.

Just want to say, This game is gonna be great!
Thanks a lot :) I'm hoping people will, on release, see the amount of content already in and be excited about seeing the remaining content get in, versus being upset/let down that said content isn't in at launch, but we're doing our best to get in as much as possible before the 30th!

As far as the achievements go;

Remeber you only need five achievements per level to unlock the gallery for that level.
Those five can be all from Easy, all from Hard, or any mix of the ten available.

The Easy achievements are designed to give the player a push towards core game objectives, while the Hard ones are generally not core-objective related at all and are just meant to be fun/ridiculous.

If you get all ten achievements in a level, though, you'll get both a special POV animation loop and a cheat code (with the exception of The End, where you only get the cheat code.)

NOTE: cheat codes mayyyyy not be in at launch though, but it'll be retroactive if you got it.

Has the "$10 backer name-in-background" names been removed?
If you mean the Patreon reward, we took it off because we closed that tier up a while ago to have time to get all the names checked for copyright/trademark/offensive names, and time to get them in game in the special way we have setup for them.

But all the people who did get in for it are in, yep :)

I can check to make sure for you if you'd wanna post what name you put down for it, as well as potentially get you a screencap of the name in-game too :)

Actually, my apologies! I think it was for the "Name in credits", nevermind! How can I see the credits in the game?

Yep, it was for name in credits, back between May 2018-August 2018 :) for the credits, those'll be once you've beaten the game; they'll appear in a long credits reel set to music.

Thanks a lot for the support, btw!

What, you don't want all of your friends and family to see every time you boot up your pornography?
Yeah, nah. That's why i'll never buy any kind of porn game on steam.
Fortunately there's other options here.

Yeah, we'll have it on lots of sites, but to note, while we're doing our soft launch (first month or two after launch), we'll likely not be on anywhere but steam so we can update the game frequently automatically for players, vs. all other sites where people have to manually download updates themselves.

Since we'll be doing updates every other day at least, if not daily, we don't want like 30 extra versions of the game out there confusing people about which is most up to date, troubleshooting it, people missing out on content, etc.

But once we get pretty much everything in, then we'll put it out on all the other sites, and drop to about a weekly update schedule or so.

So this release on the 30th, it does not mean the game will be playable as of then right? I mean, that is when it will be re-submitted for approval to Steam?

The resubmission to Steam is on the 5th of November; the game is already playable from beginning to end, and has been for a while.

The thing that wasn't in was the endings, so on a technicality it didn't pass the first time.

Now, the endings are in, so it *should* pass.

You can't say that the game was 'playable from beginning to end' if the endings weren't in, man. That's not a technicality, that's the basic criteria.
That's why people were saying that it sounded like you submitted it intentionally expecting it to fail just so that you could say that you hadn't missed your deadline.
It feels deceptive.

I mean, true, but also note that the endings aren't something you play, either.

Hence, playable from beginning to end. (A lot of games have literally no endings either, and yet are considered playable from beginning to end.)

That's why people were saying that it sounded like you submitted it intentionally expecting it to fail just so that you could say that you hadn't missed your deadline.
We did in fact say publicly multiple times that we 99% expected it to fail. We still submitted it though, not as an excuse of making a deadline, but because we wanted to get stuff cleared out of the way in terms of potential failing points when we submitted the next time. (And it definitely did reveal a few potential failing points, so it was worth it.)

So I'm not really sure I'd consider that deceptive if we've been fully up front about how we're handling it.

Plus, to us, the submission deadline was never "a deadline to not miss", as in, it's not the game being out, which is what really matters. We're still sticking to the 30th of November regarding that, no matter what is or isn't complete.

Worded that wrong, with "playable" I meant simply playable by the general public, as in we get to play it on the 30th.

Sorry for the miscommunication.
