Developer Notes:

Welcome to a new newsletter, we hope you're all doing well! We've got a short update this month to let you know what's happening in the world of A6!

Currently, we have two things that we're focusing on: releasing A6 on Steam in early access, and getting the first scene(s) for the Episode 10 beta uploaded to Patreon.

We don't have a timeframe for our Steam release just yet, but we are working towards it, and will publicly announce a date for that as soon as we have one set.

Our Episode 10 beta is going to come with a slight change of tiers here on Patreon, and once it is available it will be accessible to Patrons on the Mercenary ($10) tier. We currently feel that we have a bit of an imbalance with our tiers, and would like for the beta to be the main reward for the Mercenary tier going forward.

The first upload for the Episode 10 beta will be coming to Patreon this month, and we'll release more details on the tier changes then. There won't be any pricing changes, simply some changes to which rewards are available on which tiers.

We'd also like to remind players that with the 9.1 update it's highly likely your old save files will not be compatible, in which case you will need to play again from the start (and can use skip to quickly get through the episodes if needed).

FAQs:

How many episodes will the game have?

We are working with a 10 Episode plan, but we reserve the right to extend that if the need arises

Will A6 still be free after it is completed?

No.  When the final episode is released we will be putting a price on the game to assist with covering production costs. From there we will be editing and refining the game, adding some cool new features, and re-releasing it in its final version.

Do you have to pick a romance in the game?

No, not at all. It’s possible to play a non-romantic route simply by choosing not to flirt with anyone, or by not locking down a route in Episode 5

Will there be NSFW content?

The game is rated 17+ so there will be a small amount, but any 18+content will only be shown in our upcoming side-story, After Dark.

Will you ever share Patreon content on social media?

No. The main game is free and will remain so until the final episode is released. The content we release on Patreon is exclusive for those who pay for it, and it is by no means required to enjoy the game and the story.

Are you taking new writers/artists?

If we ever open positions, we will be sure to make an announcement for it on our social media.

Can I create fanart or fanfiction of Andromeda Six and its characters?

Yes, absolutely. In fact, we encourage it, and love seeing your creations.

Can I sell/take commissions for A6 fanfiction?

No. Under no circumstances do we allow A6 fanfiction to be sold or created for profit.

Can I sell/take commissions for A6 fanart?

Yes, under specific conditions. A6 fanart may only be distributed as a single, unique two-dimensional image for a single commissioner. You may not create or sell fanart with the intent for it to reproduced.

Can I post official art from the game?

We do not allow the reposting of Andromeda Six art without permission and proper credit (sprites, backgrounds, etc). The art from the game is a personal asset of Wanderlust Games and our artists, and the only type of reposts we allow are screenshots from the game, with proper credit given.
