i don't recall eeyock being a planned bachelor from the beginning- was he added due to popularity? does that mean there's a chance for even more routes?
Yep, Eeyok was added as the 7th route due to a popularity vote from my Patrons. All available male side characters were possible, and through a bracket style elimination contest, it was Eeyok versus Nornus at the end, and Eeyok won. It's certainly possible for any other side character to get his own route, provided he wins the popularity contest.
why is his route different that way? is it 18+ early on instead of just in the epilogue or something?
Sadly, as much as I wanted to keep Aiden's route free, my decision to cut it off at a certain point is due to the amount of sexual content that is in his route. There was no possible way for me to fade to black or paraphrase the sexual content so that it remained free to play, as the sexual content IS part of Aiden and MC's development, and a huge part of the story. MC learns she likes femdom as she goes through various situations with Aiden, and fading these out to black meant a free player would be missing half of the story. It was better to cut it off. Aiden's route will only be released with his Plus DLC available at the same time.
also i've been replaying to get back save progress i lost during reinstalls (i now have the save backed up) and i noticed some errors. i have screenshots to go with- where should i send them?
If you've encountered any errors, you can post them in the bug report thread. Screenshots are helpful, but please explain what happened, how it happened, and if you could reproduce the error. I'm assuming error means coding error here, not a typo in the script.
