Beta 0.8 Releasing Tomorrow | Reminders & Information
Hey everyone!
Tomorrow, I will be releasing Sexy Quest - Beta 0.8 exclusively for $5+ Patrons!
In case you missed the previous post, this update will be very different from other updates so I'll detail some of those important points in this post:
== Beta 0.8 ==
Beta 0.8 is meant to be a midway update leading up to the final Version 1.0 release next month in May.
Beta 0.8 is incomplete but features a continuation of the main storyline as well as one new sidequest storyline (including an NSFW scene). But from a gameplay perspective, a lot of moves, bosses, and equipment have been adjusted so the JRPG experience feels a little more complete.
Ideally, I recommend a brand new save to enjoy most of those changes but if you're only interested in the NSFW content, carrying over an old save will work.
Unlike previous updates, Beta 0.8 will ONLY be available on Patreon to $5+ SQ Patrons and will remain up until V1.0 releases. I'm releasing this update solely to reward $5+ Patrons for their wait as well as provide a benefit since V1.0 won't have the usual $5+ Patron testing window.
V1.0 should only be a couple weeks away so for those waiting for that version, it's on the horizon!
== Version 1.0 Pricing & Release Time ==
If everything stays on schedule, Version 1.0 of Sexy Quest will launch on itch for $5 next month. However, $3+ Patrons, for a limited time, will receive a download key for the finished game. This way you can buy Sexy Quest at a discounted price.
Additionally, I aim to release V1.0 in less than a month from now so if you're looking to start a $5 pledge when Beta 0.8 releases tomorrow, if the timing lines up, you should still qualify for a download key of V1.0. This way, you'd spend $5 to play Beta 0.8 now while also receiving a copy of V1.0 when it's finished.
The release date of Version 1.0 is not confirmed yet but I am eyeing that May 19th date.
Of course, if I need to delay V1.0, this won't be possible but I don't plan on needing a major delay since most of the really difficult stuff is finished. I really underestimated how difficult movesets, equipment, and general boss difficulty would be! 0_0

Thank you all so much for playing Sexy Quest! Sorry if I sound like I'm repeating myself a bunch. I just want to make sure people fully understand how the release schedule is working over the next few weeks since it's a bit different than usual.
See you all soon =D
Similar to other updates, I'll be using this time for feedback as well especially on the difficulty. The new bosses added in Beta 0.8 definitely put up a fight on Normal mode.
If bosses are far too difficult, I can tone things down a bit before V1.0 releases!
I recommend a clean save file to ensure that your heroes all have the intended moves and abilities in battle!
