Hi everyone, it's time to give you some news about Extra Life.

First of all, I would like to announce that Extra Life will never be available on Steam. We did everything we could, the name of the game has been changed, the main plot has been modified in the version I sent them, and areas that did not appear have been created especially for the Steam version and increase the chances of passing the validation.

Despite all this, it didn't work... This news made me a bit depressed but that's how it is... I don't have the power to fight against them, they have the monopoly, and they can do whatever they want.

So I'm going to concentrate on what I can do best, which is to continue to develop Extra Life, the name will stay that way, and there will be other opportunities.

In the meantime, Extra Life will remain exclusive on Itch.io, SubscribeStar, and Patreon.

Regarding the development of version 0.6, everything is going as planned, it should arrive in mid-December.

Thank you again for your support, in the last few months I have noticed the first drop in revenue on Patreon and I can understand it, the 0.6 version took much longer to develop than expected. I will do my best to improve it for the next updates.

Version 0.7 will be dedicated to Sakuya and version 0.8 could be the return of Noriko ;)

Take care of yourselves

Have you considered broken builds? Maybe for the higher tiers, have a monthly "I hit the complile button, it isn't done and errors are gonna happen" build for those who don't mind, and then the official versions you've been releasing? I would pay extra for that.

That's unfortunate. I think this game is pretty great and more people definitely deserve access to it. Regardless, I'll continue to give my support. Best wishes. Don't let it get you down.

I personally will always support this game. Continue your hard work, and bring us the greatest hentai game !!!!

And if you try to put it on DLSITE to see if they accept it, it's a smaller market but it may help to continue raising funds, and the Japanese like this type of story.

Pet Hedgehog

does that mean chiaki will go back to the old look?

Mei Hatsume

No I don't think so, cuz they change the story for her and work for that new look

Would Gog.com be a possibility? They have some erotic games too, like the ones from Kagura Games. (And, unlike Steam, the erotic games there are even available in Germany.)

Hype for 0.8 Noriko is my favorite

You have all our support! We just need to grow itch.oi as much as possible so it can compete with steam. Steam is just a very shit monopoly. KEEP GOING! Dont let this get you down, you are doing amazing work! I cant wait to see this finished, and - after a proper rest - I want to buy your next game - doesnt matter if its a sex game or not. You are a good developer!

yes I was thinking about DLsite but I would like to make a good Japanese translation before I propose it

0.8 noriko. So like November, 2023?

at this point maybe the Epic launcher would accept. i don't get why steam is so finicky when it comes to these types of games. Some visual novels are forced to remove the content and others are allowed to keep it in. makes no sense.

Konstantinus

About additional launchers, tried GoG? There they released some Eroges now too. Oh and like Guillaume said try Epic Games too.

In their terms of use, Epic store does not allow pornography. But I will make a request, it doesn't cost anything to try :)

OppaiMan

Try dlsite.com

extra_life

I would do it but I would like to propose a Japanese version on DL site, it corresponds to 90% of their user base, it would be a pity not to do things correctly
