School of Lust Important Announcement (Update) (Patreon)

Hi everyone!

Here's a quick update regarding the ongoing changes to School of Lust, due to Patreon contacting us recently, as certain characters in the game could be perceived as minors. We apologize that it took so long to post an update, but we've been going back and forward with Patreon, and the communication did not go as swift as we anticipated it would go.

We've completed the initial requests by Patreon surprisingly fast (within a few days), and presented a revamped version of the game to Patreon almost a week ago. We've mainly changed the dialogue, where certain words and sentences are no longer used, that could be perceived in the wrong way (e.g. school, boy etc.). We've also done a change to the protagonist character to make him look more his age. See: https://i.imgur.com/Q5hi1ym.png 

The dialogue and setting of the game was accepted, however, they've requested that we have to do more drastic changes to the artwork as well. A few of the characters have to be adjusted to look more their age. The change we did to the protagonist wasn't accepted either.

A few days ago we've sent another revamped version of the protagonist to Patreon ( see: https://i.imgur.com/394bhwR.png ), with broader shoulders, smaller head and making him quite a bit taller and today we received notice that even that version of him was unfortunately not acceptable either.

The unique anime style artwork we have and the not overly sexualized/masculine looking characters, seems to pose an issue. I guess all 18 year olds have to be extremely tall, have giant boobs/muscles and basically look like a carbon copy of Hulk Hogan or The Rock.

In all seriousness, I don't want to turn this post into a rant, as we do understand Patreon as well, and we do appreciate that they're being helpful on guiding us along the way to make sure we can still use their platform. It's just rather inconvenient not knowing when exactly the characters are going to be perceived as adults by their team. The joke that we have to give the main character a cane, a smoking pipe and gray hair seems not that far now. 

That said, we're on top of it, and we're going to get through this, without butchering some of the characters. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we hope you guys are supportive along the way.

This is going to be a rather time consuming task, especially considering we have to do the animations again, but we're planning to leave the animations for later, so you guys don't have to wait several weeks to download/play again. We'll make sure to keep you guys updated often, including any changes we're doing to the artwork.

To make up for the wait, we're making sure the new v0.3.4 update will release alongside the artwork changes.

Best,

-Lawina

PS:  The surprise announcement we had planned this month unfortunately has been delayed, as this matter affects that as well.
