Nice, according to the last patreon thread, there is light at the end of the tunnel
I am looking forward for the next open beta and for sure, the final release.
The idea for the next project sound interesting, an "escape" game or something like that, maybe with an female MC, i hope that it will be again a Sci-Fi themed game, not sure if that is on your list of kinks Kerni, but what do you think about stuff like pregnancy and especially for the Sci-Fi theme "alien breeding" stuff?
Maybe a game with more paths and endings would be something, giving the game more replayability, i just think of stuff like the bad dream in A:ATOFL, so that would not only be a bad dream but when you would make bad decisions that dream would become an real "bad" ending, i felt like after i got to the free roaming mode shortly before the end i made a savegame and as long as i do not lose that i do not have the interest and need to play the story again, and i think it will be the same with Milky Ways, when i get to the free roaming mode at the end, i gonna try to get all the "optional" stuff and make an savegame so if i like to play with the girls i will never play the story again, just loading the savegame and thats it, but when the game has more branches and endings i am sure i would play the whole story again and again, at least to reach every ending.
