Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! <3 The more people sign up for SubscribeStar the greater the chance that I can continue CK as-is (and with a lot more creative freedom)!

For the devs of Lessons in Love and Lewd Town Adventures, while going SStar-only did put a dent in their revenue compared to Patreon, it worked out at least well enough. Many people prefer Patreon, of course, but if there's no other choice to support you and get early access to updates, I'm sure a lot of them will move over to SStar.
You could possibly also try adding a pixiv fanbox page, I've seen at least one dev of a KK-based game do that.
Sure, Yen as currency might feel weird, but at least they allow some more common payment processor options.
I'd try to keep going via those options as long as possible, since I'd assume replacing all graphics would be a ton of work, only to have Steam possibly reject it.
CK is the game that got me into making KK games myself and still my fav game-with-KK-graphics out there, so I hope you can finish it the way it's meant to be :)
I'll certainly do my very best to keep CK going as it has gone thus far, and the support on SubscribeStar has been incredible! If everyone can help to hit the goal then it's business as usual - though with a lot more creative freedom! :)
I'll also be looking into alternative revenue streams such as Pixiv, for sure. I taught EFL in Tokyo for five years so I'm actually quite comfortable with accepting Yen ;P
Thank you for the kind words and for the advice! I really appreciate it!
