It’s not dead stop spreading misinformation, the creator is active on his Patreon and is planning on a full steam release.

you won’t no one on this platform will have access to new episodes moving forward for free, either wait for the steam release or support him on Patreon. 

Times are a changing...

Hey everyone.

Got some stuff to talk about. Namely the monetization aspect of this project.

MAIN GAME:

For the previous 5 years of so, everything I've made came out for free eventually. For the main game, it was available on the $10 tier on day one of each update. While the $5 tier gets it 2 weeks later and the $1 tier, another 2 weeks after that... and finally it would be available completely for free sometime after.

This is changing. Now, new episodes will stay at the 10$ Tier indefinitely (this will retroactively affect EP11, which I will move back up to the $10 tier as soon as I post this.

EP1-EP10 will remain available for free. I won't removed the download.

BONUS EPISODES:

For the bonus episodes. Previously, each new episode that comes out was locked at the $20 tier until a new one is developed. At which point, previously released bonuses will migrate down the tier, all the way to the $1 Tier before being available for free later.

This is also changing. The lowest limit for down tier migration for bonus episodes are now at $5. They will not go lower than that as each new bonus episodes are released.

A newly released bonus will still be locked at $20 until the next one is made as this is the entire reason behind the bonuses, as a top tier reward.

This will not affect the bonuses that are already available for free. Namely Bonus 1-3. They will remain free forever. Bonus 4 and above will never go below the $5 tier going forward.

REASONING:

First and foremost I'm doing this for the money. Not gonna beat around the bush about it. Putting an asking price on what I think (hope) my work is worth both in terms of money and self worth. Secondly, this is to make things more in line with what other devs of similar games are doing with their monetization. And finally, it's to make things align better as I attempt to make my work available on the various store fronts on the interwebs.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

Sorry to the $1 tier folks. You guys are the biggest group amongst my patrons. And I appreciate you all for all these years. I've been putting off this decision for a long time now even though it's been eating away at me with each new release. But things are changing and the decision has been made.

Thanks for reading,

Az.

I believe its a question.

Here’s a link to their subscribe Star, for those who want to help out. with funding since Patreon got nuked. https://subscribestar.adult/thesolarionproject

honestly I think the pixel art adds to the overall style of the game .

their patreon was banned, of course they are going to need a price increase to offset the cost of that.

love you guys work reminds me of classic VTMB!

you don’t have to buy it it’s entirely optional.

don’t let people get you guys down your making quality work. 

thank you! 

can people who purchased your games on Itch.io expect update's to the game? or are we just SOL?

just start a new game normally.

cringe comment!

because it’s an obvious scam

their is a error in the latest build, something about fade to black. Not working properly.

errors":["Failed to create PayPal payment (422)"]}

paypal client is broken.

will you add an opinion to remove the Futa?

toxic comment, toxic person!

itch changed their policy regarding what kinds of adult content they will allow on site.

what gave you that impression? Also Itch recently changed the policy regarding adult content.

any progress on the game? Patreon has been silent.

Anyway to keep corruption low I had it at zero prior to this update. and after I automatically got first 6 then 8 corruption. 

check his patreon he has been working on the game. But he’s been going through shit. And some support couldn’t hurt.

not the teams fault it’s the fault of payment processors .  

sorry this happened additionally for anyone interested I posted a link to an article. About this situation from an adult news site. On the games main page.

yes and from their prospective they stole your money as well. How this doesn’t open them up to a class action suit is beyond me.

basically yes because for some reason violent content perfectly ok . But sexual content devious ,disgusting, immoral. lol

well isn’t that some pardon my French but weapons grade bullshit. You can make a game field to brim with murder but god forbid you show a nipple .

I believe the issue is more to do with PayPal and other credit card processing companies not wanting their name associated with porn. Which while understandable to a point is sort of stupid. Considering these same companies have no problems with violent video games.

I thank you for this I have already made my mind up to support your work as soon as I am finically able to do so. I’ve been a fan of your work for a while. I mean this sincerely you and your team make is art.

Itch may in its attempt to please payment processors, find out that adult content is basically the only reason people use this site. hopefully the loss of revenue is severe.

cant find your patreon do you have a link Perveteer?

they do follow the link to Patreon well worth it .

Unfortunately even though I paid for the version with the bonus scenes it is no longer available. Meaning it just links me to the free version. Meaning Itch took money from me for a product and decided to fuck me and the devs of said product over. Feels bad man.

https://lewdpixels.com/news/has-itch-io-become-an-irritation-too-far/ sure thing sorry for the late reply , heres a link to a news website with an article on the issue.

itch has recently changed policy regarding paid versions of games on their site , any plans for how your studio plans to handle the changes. I’d very much like to continue supporting your work.

well for what it’s worth I enjoy your content and if I can get it elsewhere I will. I refuse to do business with a site that actively fucks over its developers, when for the longest time they had no problem taking a cut.

both sasha and bree have to be in the girlfriend status before they will agree additonally make sure both girls Lp KP are at the mini requirment.
