Patreons did clearly not like the new pictures and without warning they have taken down my Patreon site. They think it features material that falls outside the bounds of their Community Guidelines. I would appreciate if people who have supported me complained to Patreons and explain that all characters in the game is above 18 years old and that you don't see any reason why the site has been removed.

This sucks big time!!! Wish you all the best and hopefully this situation can be resolved. There is a dev section here on F95 https://f95zone.to/forums/programming-development-art.73/.
Maybe someone has experience with your situation and could calm you down a little or has some tips how to proceed. Would be a HUGE bummer if this was the closing chapter for HS...

I've made an appeal, but I'm not very optimistic.

Well, I wrote to customer service but did not even get an Inbox notify for that.
Do you already have an idea about the implications for HS2?
I have big expenses and there's no way that I can create a illustrated version without Patreon. They have also taken the money I had on my account, something that puts me in a difficult situation short turn. I think we will manage to create a 0.1 version for part 2, but I don't know what will happen after that.

Is it because they feel there's characters in it who look younger than 18, regardless of being told they're 18?
About the coerciveness of the MC, manipulation of young girls in the story?
It isn't about Patreon, it's the money processors they're reliant on.
They tend to be run by religious fundamentalist groups who have lots of money and power.
More importantly.
It's not out of protecting anyone, especially not kids.
It's about keeping the discussions about those topics out of the mainstream.
Netflix and Prime will all feature films and shows which would never be allowed by Patreon.

Today it's high sport for many to report your neighbors for obviously foul, evil and anti-social reasons, based on their superiority as obviously, "I just don't like it and/or them!"
This worked so well in '30s Germany and Italy, and is still effective in Russia and Iran. Well documented in "1984" and "Fahrenheit 451."

Yes, we're still on

but 90 percent of the followers used Patreon and very few have made the jump. Now the expenses are a lot bigger than the income. Hopefully it will change when the pilot for The Higher Society, Part 2 is released, but right now I'm struggling to pay the bills.

The hope would be they just did not realise so far. I have a pretty long list in Patreon as well. There is no indication Patreon sends you like "creatorxyz just got banned". It was just that your last post was still in my timeline but I could not Open it anymore.
So if you would find any way to contact them or whith your next update, things may Change. This is all really fucked up and I feel very sorry for you. The new art really looks great and part 2 would have been amazing where it not for this unfortunate Event.
Did you get any reaction to your appeal?
I have managed to track down e-mail address to all my Patreons, but just a few have made the jump to Subscribestar. Perhaps more will come to Subscibestar when the new update has been relased...
The new art really looks good, but I doubt that I can afford to keep this artist unless the income increases a lot.
My appeal was denied.

Not directly but they wrote:
My mistake was to publish the working on the new menu post. After seeing that they have clearly looked at all my posts and found some other picture that they didn't like.
I'll be the first to admit that some of the girls in the new menu looked way too young and it was stupid of me to publish this instead of having the artist adjust some of the models first.

Is the "Gallery girl" Mila? To be fair she actually looks pretty young... Kudos for you being so honest and open. It still sucks that they did not give you at least a strike but just nuked you instead.
I really hope that there will be a way for you to finish your story with the new art.
All the best to you my friend!
