why not sell the download and allow people to buy it, not everyone wants to use patreon, when you can sell nsfw versions in itch.io or steam.
Viewing post in NSFW in-game content?
I might do that eventually, once the whole story is concluded. Right now the intimate scenes are there as a thank you to all the generous people who make Infinite Stars possible on Patreon. If you can't afford to support the game, or don't want to use Patreon, that's fine! The game is written in such a way that you should still be able to have an enjoyable experience even without access to the nsfw content. <3
