Well, that's highly disappointing, as it's not clear to users here when they're "Purchasing" the game that the same early access to future iterations will not be included. I'd highly recommend taking an approach similar to Pure Onyx if you intend to continue this model, so that it's clear to users what they are purchasing.
E.g.: https://eromancer.itch.io/pure-onyx-december-2025
Thank you very much for your feedback. You’re absolutely right — we should have been more transparent in informing our players that the game would be distributed under a subscription model.
If it’s not too much trouble, could you please message us on Discord? You can join the game’s server via the link on our page, or contact us directly (lavmimo). We have a gift for you.
