This is understandable, but you also need to consider that being able to play as a female is a MASSIVE feature to just hold out for paying players only. I can understand smaller features like outfits or weapons, but I imagine that if the option to play as a female was provided for free, that might actually convince more people that the game is worth funding in a more organic, likable way instead of people doing it out of a dangerous morbid curiosity.

Yup you have a point here, since the 0.0.62 version was released almost at the same time as patrons got it, we didn't want to share the codes just to be fair to our supporters. Once every patreon tier receives the 0.0.7 build we will share the code for previous version so people could play as a female. We did that already with few older versions, so will try to stick to the same plan. Supporters main benefit will be to get the latest game build before everyone else.
