When is the game releasing?
- February 22nd, 2024, on Steam and Itch first, and then other platforms sometime shortly thereafter.
I don't want the game on Steam, because I don't want my friends and family seeing me playing the game.
- Good news: you can make any games you own, your playtime, and current activity private in the Steam Beta Client! (accessible at https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/276C-85A0-C531-AFA3)
- https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/593110/view/3901870709962551195 has more info on the new privacy features.
Is the game censored on Steam?
- No, there's no censored content on Steam.
What other platforms do you eventually plan to get the game on, after Steam?
- Nutaku, JAST, Denpasoft, FAKKU, DLsite, and many, many others.
What about physical copies of the game?
- We plan to do this as well, sometime in the future.
Is there any DLC planned for the game?
- Yes; there'll be a Safe For Work mode, speedrun mode, level editor, a handful of new cutscenes, extra functionality, bugfixes, free "challenge" maps, and more.
- All DLC will be free.
Will the Safe For Work mode be ready for the game at launch?
- No, it'll take some time to do post-release, because we need to make entirely new cutscenes for it.
- This is because we're not just blurring nudity or something similar for SFW mode; NSFW gets removed entirely if you toggle this on.
How many endings does the game have?
- 21 unique "true endings", 9 variants of the "bad ending", and lots of secret events.
That seems like a lot; do you really expect people to play the game that many times?
- No; while we expect some people will play it many times, the game was designed with the expectation that players will only play a single time through.
- The high amount of endings / cutscenes isn't there because we expect players to see or grind them all out; they're there to give each player a unique run and for their choices to matter.
Why don't you give Steam keys to Patreon backers from Germany and China? (They're blocked on Steam from NSFW content.)
- This could be taken by Steam as trying to circumvent their rules, and the last thing we want to do is that.
- Instead, we'll send backers from Germany and China a key on a different platform if they'd like.
Will the game have a downloadable soundtrack?
- The soundtrack will be ready at release, and available both on Steam and Patreon.
Is the game Steam Deck compatible?
- People have tested it on there without any issues, as far as I know.
What social media sites are you on?
- Here's a complete list; http://linktr.ee/hentaiwriter
Is there a free demo for the game?
- Yep, over at Steam at https://store.steampowered.com/app/1238920/Future_Fragments and on Itch at https://hentaiwriter.itch.io/futurefragments.
How do I remap controls, change graphical options, check Ideal amounts, and so on while playing?
- Press ESC at any time during gameplay, or the Start button on your controller.
Where did the other FAQ go?
- Right here; Patreon only lets us pin one post at a time.
