Looks interesting to me. But I's a bit dangerous to use patreon for that, because patreon banned slavery plots, if I'm not mistaken.
I think this game may be tagged as abandoned, this was the dev's last update.

New life for the project, but not with me in it.
Hi, all.
I hope this message finds you well. I meant to reach out sooner, and I apologize for the radio silence over the past few years of radio silence.
I value the support and engagement of everyone here and on Patreon.
Without delving into too much detail, many things have happened in the last few years, both on personal and professional plans, and I couldn't legally put any time into this project. (family, corporate job, and country in which I couldn't use a VPN)
Even if life wouldn't hit me, I'm also not an artist, which made things more complex even if I could have found a way, so I needed to drop it. Please know that this hiatus was not planned, and it certainly does not reflect my commitment; I wanted to see this project finished by collaborating with an artist when I started it.
I am genuinely sorry for any disappointment or inconvenience my absence may have caused.
Here's what you can expect going forward:
Someone who contacted me on discord from previous supporters will take over the project and will continue this project in a few weeks/months from what I understood he will be between jobs and he planned to work on this project for a few months as a relaxation period. If you are still interested, please stay close.
Unfortunately, I lost the Patreon account with whatever it was into it; it was much work even to connect here. The person who is going to take the project from me is going to create a new account.
As an ending not I put my trust into him he is also an artist, please let me know what you think about his art.
What platform do you recommend for this, considering the terms and conditions of Patreon?
Also, a question regarding the game's direction, what should be prioritized from your perspective?
PS: I will give this person my account from here so this will be my last post, sorry I let you down.

Hmm... in terms of platform, I don't have any first hand experience but I have heard

is more friendly towards "questionable/adult" content (less likely to be thrown off the platform), but Patreon is the more famous one. So I suppose it depends on what type of content you wish to add and/or if you wish to limit yourself to Patreons guidelines.I think the first thing you need to figure out is what type of game you are planning on making and what game engine will suit it. (rpgmaker, Renpy, custom? etc.)
Once you've started it will be difficult to change.
Then perhaps figure out what archetype you want.
- Renpy, rpgm or text based navigation? Or custom/unique?
- Do you want a VN/choice based adventure (railroad/routes)?
- Text based adventure (system/event based, with or without art)?
- Sandbox/Freeroam sandbox?
- Audio is not that important and is optional I'd say. Depends on what you want
- Unless you have a vision to make animated scenes a large part of the game, then I'd say it's optional and can wait. Animations will be more important if you plan on using 3d renders.
- Character creation and customization is a possible main feature. You either have it, or you don't.
- A prototype should have some form of save system. (save incompatibility between versions are acceptible in the beginning. But the more frequently people have to start from scratch, the more likely people are to either drop it or skip multiple updates).
The Fixer
- Good character creator and execution
- Sandboxy
- Good harassment and undress combat system
- Mostly onetracked, but with some freedom
- Decent RPG mechanics
- Very good H-combat
- True sandbox
- Very text based
- Special "Combat" (hit or miss)
- Sandbox RPG
- Character customization
- H-combat
- Grid map system for world navigation, one possible direction to go
- Text based
- Some Character customization
- Similar'esqe concept to what you originally intended?
- Multiple choice VN
- Short game
Not all forms of game and gameplay fits everyone, each of them have various strengths and weaknesses (and pitfalls)
There's also the golden rule:
The better the gameplay, the less adult content it needs as a crutch. The worse the gameplay, the more adult content it needs to make up for it.
Create your niche and find your audience.
Good luck.
