Right! I see that it was provided there 3 hours ago. I just downloaded it, and I'll give it a try. Thanks for that info.

On the other hand, without incest it will make it a bit easier to solve that pesky incest-problem.

Okay! The patch contains the original episode scripts. Looks like they will have to provide two versions for each release from now on. How much work that entails will probably depend on how they handle that 'why do we have to hide it' problem. I don't much care how they do that, since I never plan to play the Patreon release without the patch.
Yeah, but the other hand, a new problem arose. Why would they need to be secretive in front of their friends, parents and co-workers about it? They wanted to have a scenario that makes sense with the non-incest version as well, instead of the infamous taboo relationship between landladies and tenants or roommates.On the other hand, without incest it will make it a bit easier to solve that pesky incest-problem.

The link to the LewdPatcher patch has been added to the OP. However, as of this minute, the game download links still seem to be of the original game. It won't hurt to download the game and apply the patch, but it won't change anything either. But, if you actually want the revised version, I don't see it here yet.

I wish more dev's would get the hint that there are other options like Mr. DOTS did. I've tried to tell quite a few dev's and they'd rather the censorship of Patreon than the scary unknown of a new subscription service

The appeal of a reliable and well-known revenue source is a strong incentive. Money talks and developers listen. Better the devil you know than the unknown option that you don't.
Some day one or more of these newer sites will surpass Patreon, but that day hasn't come close to happening yet.
It's not only the Dev's you have to "get on board", you also need to convince the people who are doing the donating/subscribing that they can trust a less mature site with their financial transactions. Because in some legal regions it is difficult to permanently halt an existing periodical payment arrangement without the receiver's agreement.

Thing is, SubscribeStar or PayPal (Two examples of other subscriber options) aren't that new, there's also options through Discord. That ones also through PayPal. So they're not all that new and they're insured. So I hope the dev gives one of them a try. Reliable becomes relative when you're worried you could be dropped for a bullshit morality clause.

Yeah, that's also a problem. Online there are many scams. Of course there are many honest and serious business models as well, but when I get the message of wiring money via my bank or giving it to "Reliable Money Transfer Service" whom I've never heard of. And RMTS may be a decent company and exactly what it says on the tin - but I'd rather others check that for me first.

I'm not pretending it is, but as greyelf stated, you'll have to convince a broad customer base that it isn't. Add to that a certain dislike of many to use multiple platforms for essentially the same service, and it'll probably take some time until you can get the same income there.

Or for people to stop giving money to content they like through a service that is diametrically opposed to that same content. It's a self fulfilling prophecy. Gee. I hope Patreon doesn't censor them yet I refuse to pay through a no censoring platform. Its stupidity incarnate

You mention PayPal, but PayPal is the problem. Or, more specifically, the credit card companies pulling PayPal's strings. They're the ones who forced Patreon to change their rules.

Please do not mention PayPal as a solution. I know from sad, first-hand experience that PayPal is (if not at) quite near the bottom of the dilemma that developers and their subscribers find themselves in. As a result, I have resigned from their service, much as it was convenient for other purposes. I will never again pay for anything through PayPal.

Ok, so PayPal is out apparently. Honestly not too informed there apparently. SubscribeStar however has been picking up businesses left and right, especially after Patreon started dropping political opinions it disagrees with from it's service as well. It censors not only content but political discourse. Just all around a bad company to do business with.
Yeah, unless you're a big company with some weight (and a good team of lawyers) don't use paypal in a professional (or semi) way.
