Added 2024-09-13 15:55:23 +0000 UTCRIP public releases.

Last weekend I changed the public version to a demo version (covering the same amount of content as the Steam Demo version, that is until the end of Chapter 1 or the end of the Festival, but with NSFW enabled).
From my previous week of testing out the model of using a demo instead of a full public version, I'm not sure yet on the impact on Patreon itself, however, it appears the itch sales have been affected significantly. We used to only make an average of 1 sale / day, but that average has increased to 4 / day. Now of course, I don't know if this is a sustainable increase or just a response to the switch, but if so it would definitely be a big help in getting us the last steps to 1.0.
For reference, 1 sale / day ~ 30 sales / month ~ 500€ / month. So quadruple that would be 2000 € / month or a +1500€ / month. Again, I'm not sure about the sustainability of this so I don't want to promise our freelancers more money too soon, but perhaps we can at least increase the payment for some singular next month projects so they have some less money troubles to deal with.
Regarding the actual changes, we have a bunch of bugfixes as usual, I don't think there is anything that stands out in particular I would need to highlight.

2024-09-15 16:41:07 +0000 UTCSorry, I'm being really stupid I'm sure, but it still says 'upgrade to unlock'. Do I have to have the $6 a month sub to access the downloads? Does the lowest sub not get access to any downloads?

2024-09-15 16:14:08 +0000 UTCHiya, just signed into your patreon. Great game!! I noticed the itch change and thought I'd sign up here to play the latest version, I played last year so hoping there is a good chunk to play now. I can't seem to find a download link to the newest version for the level I'm at... I understand I would not be getting the latest latest, but what is a version I can download?
