it releases 28th for patrons, what about open release?
The top two tiers get it on the 28th, the 3rd tiers get it 1 week after that (~7th of March) and then the open release for the general public will be one week after that (~14th of March). Considering we're on F95, it could get leaked on the 28th, but at a minimum I'd be very surprised if no one leaks it once the 3rd tiers get it.

As the author of this topic is the creator of the game, there should be no leak problem.

I never had one on my side, although I'm not so popular.

In the worst case since he provides the game for free at the time of its public release with the ready links, the moderators are more conciliatory and in case of leak, he can always ask for the removal of the post.

That the creator of the game is the author of the topic doesn't save them of leaks, I know some games that the dev shares it freely and still get pirated.

I don't really mind leaks. I've been fishing for them here for years myself; I would be a mighty hypocrite to suddenly fight against it. Besides, fighting against piracy is a futile enterprise. I firmly believe that if I make the game good enough, people will support it, whether it is here or not.

Just be gents about it and let the mods know, so they update the thread, so I don't have to think about it. Thanks!

I've always been under the impression that F95 condones piracy and that the moderators never remove pirate links. Perhaps I just don't pay attention to enough games, but I've never seen a game with a thread on here that had mods removing early access uploads. Do they actually do that if a dev requests it?
Edit: also to be clear I have no problem with piracy, like 99% of people here I've pirated every porn game I've ever played prior to Star Periphery, and the only reason I'm giving SP money is because it perfectly encapsulates all of my top fetishes and I genuinely want it to succeed (and I have nothing better to spend my money on).

This is a pirate site and i also never even heard about mods deleting game leaks. Unless they are using banned file hosts or the game files come with malicious software i don't think the moderators would ever do something like that. :geek:

Nah, mods can edit and add links free will. There are tons of threads with dev ownership that get updated by mods all the time with new releases. If someone posts a public link in a thread, they update the thread, or they use the report function in the OP with links they will update it too. I've also never seen links removed, even on bug feast unplayable builds of games, even ones that "phone home" have been left up to.

I just want to chip in, I will buy the game once its done. We all dip our toes in free/leaked builds and we all have been burned by promises in the past.

Again to say I really like the game you are making, and I like the fact you are creating characters. Also you are building a world, and the character seems to role-play believably in this world.

Also to add that I like that gratification is not instant! We all love big chunky futa's but to get to the stage of being a sleeve for one, takes time! Its a good touch, again makes the game playable and fun.

I personally hate the click and enter scene type of game that seems to be the mainstay of fan made games. Playing is nice, if I wanted porn outright I would just look at porn and not waste my time on mediocre "games" with a few x-rated images/scenes of varying quality.

Hey, thanks!
Regarding the "click and enter scenes," SP will also have a few of those (in a way), but always as side content, never with the main characters.
I am with you on the delayed gratification front, but I understand that not everyone likes the same. So, those who want a quick fix can do so with the optional side content. Release 2 has a few scenes like that. That said, it is still done with immersion and worldbuilding in mind and, therefore, with some prior basic buildup!

My idea with the game is to have more or less fully-fledged romantic paths with the main characters while offering the ability to have some quick and easy fun along the way with the side content/characters. Or not. Depends entirely on you!

It's funny hearing this, because to me one of the big positives of Star Periphery is that it doesn't take too long to get to the porn. In comparison with most of the other VNs I've played, SP might as well be sprinting from one sex scene to the next with how fast it's going. What's impressive to me is that it maintains this relatively fast pace without compromising on story/character interactions and without making how you arrive at the sex contrived in some manner. It's a sex fantasy, sure, but it's not a stupid sex fantasy, and the way you get to each of the sex scenes actually makes sense and doesn't just feel like "okay X amount of time has passed, here is your regularly scheduled sex scene." The ~2 hours of content in v0.1 had more sex than most games on v0.3 and still has a more interesting story with better developed characters than just about anything else I've played.

Honestly, just seeing you say this makes me want to up my Patreon. Nothing makes me want to pirate or leak something more than someone losing their shit and mind over piracy happening. Especially when they go so far with it they start actually hurting and punishing even their actual supporters to maybe inconvenience a few pirates.

It's probably the number one thing I look for in creators when deciding whether to spend money or not.
