Last time I read, Steam only had the requirement of no copy-right infringement, as well as your game characters having no similarity to any real-life persons. Plus your game doesn't have rape and bestiality so it shouldn't be an issue on that end as well.
Why don't you try submitting your game for review to Steam once 1.0 is out?
I have a steam page and I will try. The game is also censored for SFW on steam with an external patch, and I have generally taken every precaution I can think up to reduce the chance of it getting banned, and yet it is still likely to get banned. I won't be going into the issue as this discussion has been had several times and I don't really want to repeat it. Others may feel to do so instead or you can research the topic on steam's banning lottery yourself.

Well I feel bad to have started a discussion about Devs and expectations ect.
What I see is, that this Dev releases small patches every 2 months that( FOR ME) is far more than some of the other devs that I wont name that just leech just to abandon a project 4 months laters.

I remember a long time ago this game being extremely hard to play without a walkthrough. Is that still the case or can i just play blindly ?

It's not hard on Normal if you're willing to use common sense and savescum fights for better results after you've seen how they play. But there are 2 difficulties below Normal if you need them. Some of the quest objectives are still obtuse and you may need to use the

.Several repeatable sex scenes in the mid/late game.

I thought so too. Never really gave a shit about any of the protagonists changing in nearly every other corruption game I've played. But it's different here.
Partly because Aura feels like a human being with ideals and dreams, instead of a hyper-sexualized dressup doll who clumsily gets entangled in easily avoided sexual scenarios.
Partly because both the main and support antagonists are real pieces of shit, and advancing towards the corruption ending is essentionally letting them win. And you don't want to see them win.
Partly because it's not just sexual. It's not just about breaking down Aura's inhibitions, and wanting her to bone nearly every dude in sight, although that is part of it. You are practically watching the death of a person in slow-mo. Her hobbies, her friends, her dreams, her idealism. It all gets broken down, and changed into something unrecognizeable. It's pretty sad if you go all the way.
But I digress. Play it yourself, and make up your own opinion.
I agree, the early game is pretty brutal, without a guide. I wrote a list of tips for surviving the early game recently, that don't explain every single quest, but give general pieces of advice that should you help you survive it.

Ummm... I'm not sure if I understood you, do you want to release it as SFW or NSFW? Because there is an NSFW category on Steam, though you have to enable a setting to see it. Steam doesn't require you to go SFW for an NSFW game.
I just went to the store and saw the New & Trending:

Edit: If you wanted to go for a wider audience on Steam by going SFW then use an NSFW patch for those who want it, then I would understand that's what you're worried about regarding Steam review. But if you wanted it to be NSFW only, then it shouldn't be an issue.

Yes, the Steam version as it is, is currently an SFW version. No it has nothing to do with going for a wider audience.
In fact, since it's a censored game I expect the reception to be horrible with lots of negative reviews even if the game does get allowed on steam.
You are looking at the games that survived the steam lottery, not at all the ones that get banned.
Steam has a 1 strike policy against adult games and it's too risky for this game.
EDIT: As I said, I don't want to fully do the whole discussion. You can read up on steam's bannings yourself.
Games can get banned simply from mentioning that characters have gone to school in the past, implying that at some point in their life characters were underage. It is meaningless to look at the games that have been allowed on the platform, as there is no consistency in the decisions. I also don't have a social media clout to oppose random bannings e.g. what happened with Chaos;Head Noah.
Developer friend of mine making the game Ero Dungeons recently also had his game 1 strike banned from steam.
Of course, as a player you don't see that. You only see all the games that do get allowed. But not the tons of games that get banned.

That's understandable. Regarding the age of the cast, how old are they? They're in high school right, so about 17-18? If so then yeah that might be a reason to get flagged.
Well there's one publisher you could consult with, they translate and publish games from this forum. Saikey Studios is a publisher on Steam so you could get some insight from them as well.
The corruption ending, and everything leading up to it is implented, barring the art for a small handful of scenes.
The good ending is still a while off, but the game is set to be done in January.
But you can actually start NG+ whenever you want. Generally the more content you've played, the more "points" you get for distributing between skills and stats, that you carry into your restart.
The max lewdness guide is in the owners trash and will be deleted soon.
I have copied it and shared it here so it won't be lost. Maybe it can be added to the OP.
Hopefully someone will continue with the guide.

The new game plus has been around much longer than there have been (proper) endings.
It's really there just so you can start a run with more starting stats and possibly even skills, leading to an easier time.
it's so annoying that you cannot use the previos version of spells/skills, like light1 or piercing1... newer versions are too manaintensive or hp intensive and in a lot of time the lower version is enough. should be addressed by dev...

I don't disagree with you that it can be annoying, but skills upgrading is clearly an intentional choice, so I don't see it changing. There are also advantages to the system. The biggest one off the top of my head is that it makes the skill menus much less cluttered than they would be if each version of each skill existed. It also makes parsing what the various debuffs do much easier.
that can be changed, either be able to choose the level of skill after you select it, or have a toggle on options to show lower level skills, or have a button (like shift) in which if you press it on the spell then it switches to different level or if you press the spell while holding shift then the level selection comes up. etc.
so there are many ways to implement it. UI and quality of life is already very good in this game so dev clearly pays attention to little things so i dont see how this cannot be done.
