We have several levels of buying on itch. Exactly the same as on Patreon, where the game is sold through a subscription system, but each update there has more content. To balance the versions for itch and patron, we can change the price for iche depending on the state of the game and its content. Here everything is sold once, unlike the patreon, and the game is present here not because of money, but because of greater audience coverage. The fundamental platform that gives us a constant opportunity to develop is still a patreon, and so that people don't feel deprived, we are trying to balance all this.


The same is written in the description: the patreon version and the itch version are different, where the patreon version has more content than the itch. And the people who paid for the game on itch still get versions, as it was before, so I don't quite understand what the dissatisfaction is. It's just that an intermediate price of 17 was added to 6, 12 and 25 dollars, which in general did not change the picture much, and people still get a new update every 10 days.

No dissatisfaction, I haven't bought the game yet just curious and making sure what it is that I'm going to be paying for exactly before I dive in because in the past I misunderstood 2 other adult games in their pricing model and ended up three times paying for the version of the game at time of payment or sometimes a dev has a sale on, what they do is they only give the version that was available during the sale vs if you bought the game before the sale started or finished and then got the game for the full price and continued to receive updates 

After the purchase, you will continue to receive versions in accordance with the purchased "privileges". Roughly speaking, when you buy a game, you do not buy a specific version, but versions of the game in accordance with the release schedules of the game and versions for different levels of "privileges". Itch works like something from which you will receive privileges with a one-time purchase and then, as if you bought a game in steam, but at the same time, yes, it is better to support the game on patreon monthly, if you liked it so much, then you get more privileges.
