Just a follow-up for anyone interested:
No Such Luck on Steam is official! (There's a lengthy review process you need to go through, but all that is done now.)

When will it release? Right now it looks like it'll likely be November or December - I'll have a better idea in a month or two. It should release before the end of the year however.
First, CH4 will be released on Patreon (Either in September, or October - I'm more than halfway done building CH4, but it's larger than previous chapters, so it's taking a while). Once CH4 is out on Patreon, and I'm sure there's no major bugs or anything else, the Steam release will come shortly after. Just to give you an idea, CH1 (plus the prologue) was about 1.7k renders, CH2 was about 1.8k. CH3 was approx 2.5k, and CH4 will be bigger than that - It's too early to say but it'll be between 2.5k-3k most likely. Future chapters will likely just keep getting bigger. (Unfortunately for my sanity).
The game will release on Steam as EA - with a price tag of $11.99 USD. The price will likely go up when the game is finished and exits EA. (It's expected to be $13.99 when it's done. Ultimately I am aiming for between 10-13 total chapters, although I can't be sure about that this early. I know how much story I want to tell, I just don't know how many chapters it'll take to tell it just yet. Also note - these prices are in USD, so regional pricing may be different.)
The game will release on Steam with the first 4 chapters - each new chapter will be added to the steam build of the game shortly after the initial Patreon release. If the game ends up being too big to package into a single game, the 2nd game will be added as DLC to the first - if this happens, "Season 2" will have a significantly reduced price tag as compared to the base game - likely only a couple bucks, though it'll require you have the base game first. My goal is to NOT do this - but as mentioned previously, it depends on how big the game ends up being.
Normally I don't do dev logs or update posts here but I'll throw you guys two small things.
#1 - CH4 will release with a brand new UI. The old one is gone, and an overhauled UI is taking its place. It's been rebuilt from the top down, so expect things to look quite a bit different - but still feel very similar.
#2 - One of the new phone apps is going to be FanlyHub. It was mentioned during the scavenger hunt, but the hunt is over! Plenty of people set up pages - some keep maintaining them, some will let them go by the wayside. You'll be able to subscribe to individual pages - comment on posts, and more. Do note - people will know if you've subscribed to them, and this could affect relationships with other characters! Here's one of the many posts that'll be added to the new FanlyHub app. (It'll be updated every chapter moving forward... well, except for the girls that abandon their pages anyway!)
