How do you join the beta? This is honestly one of my top 3 NSFW games and I would be happy to play it early, even if it has bugs, the story is amazing and I love how its going so far. Also, is it in the cards for the girls to find out, who I have and have not (mostly have) been with during the game?
Beta is for $10+ patrons. They're much less polished than actual releases, so it's only really something for if you want to help the game. Not to try to dissuade you, I just don't want to give false promises! The full release will be out in 1-2 days for anyone who bought the game, depends on how well bugfixes/typo fixes go.
Yes, relationships will be more of a topic of discussion in the future. I don't intend to hit you with any 'gotcha' moments or punishments, but by the end of the game you may have to make some choices (full harem is a choice, but not the only one)
