Cute game for sure, needs some polish and some work! I assume you already know this and have a big list of things you want to add to the game as you get the time to develop this project further.
I cant help myself but find it hilarious with how the press on the assembly line just smooshes the androids into the box. "Awareness level extreme" *stares down the incoming hydrophilic press with unflinching resolve*
keep up the good work, ill be keeping an eye on this one after some more development has been worked into the game :)

For your first commercial game, it's got charm to it. I checked out your patreon and found the pricing to be odd, in tandem with the Itch.io minimum price to unlock the game. $8.88 to unlock the game on this platform, but your prices on Patreon are, $3.20/$6.20/$9.20 monthly.
With a pricing scheme like this I'm curious if this project will be regularly updated on Itch.io as new versions release or if it's going to receive quarterly updates or any at all due to being on Patreon for a lower price.
I'm optimistic that you will be adding more content/polish to the existing game, in it's current state its missing certain elements to it that make it more appealing, such as a gallery, or way to interact with the H-scenes during the game.
In short,
You're doing a good job, just a couple of odd details that can be easily ironed out. You're potentially on your way to something good :)
I'd speculate the strat here is to keep making new "Pure Onyx" pages as new editions of the game so you have to keep paying for the game as described by Popol. If they just update the version on a single page you can use use the "I already paid for this game" button. But seeing how the website registers this as a different game/page it doesnt flag it as so.
Im genuinely excited for this game to develop, I seriously think you have something that can blow up here and be hyper successful if pulled off correctly. There wasnt a lot to play with in the Alpha, but its just that an Alpha. Im very excited for you to continue development and ill be keeping a very close eye on this one for sure!
I hope the invasion start to include multiple heros coming in as the game progresses!
A note i found is that you can exploit unlimited research points from one girl. Just endlessly spank her over and over until she has an orgasm and reap the 500 research point reward. This process can be repeated non stop, since the NPC will be stuck in the process of endlessly needing to "rest" after a spanking.
that head always seems to be the reason I lose hearts, i havent beaten the trap phase yet because of it. I'm not sure if anything else will come up after it. Another concern I have is that the stages are getting a bit out of hand with the gambits added to increase the challenge, using mana to dispell them is fine and all but it seems like I never have enough to spend.
I finally figured out one of the "bugs" the issue I reported before was the small blue girl event not always leading to her charging your room and triggering a game over.
I figured out the event timer for her prying open the door isnt always the same amount of time, and she doesnt always open the door at the same rate/ amount of force.
If a player doesn't interact with the event at all there is a good chance she will not open the door in time before the timer expires on the event. This leads to the next time the event triggers causing the door to open to its previous point and resuming the struggle.
There are times when retesting this Ive managed to survive three events back to back and on the fourth one she finally pried it all the way open and triggered the game over scene.
Additional notes: It seems to be a common question as to why people are not unlocking scenes in the gallery. My suggestion is to make scenes unlock at certain milestones and/or unlock defeat scenes after the event has triggered. Replacing the need to have a plushy on the desk. I'd think having the plushy on the desk makes that corresponding girl give a special scene if she catches you on the night. Just a thought to help with the spam question.
