Once Ever After final release!

It's out! If you have been waiting during the Early Access period, you can now get the game via these two fine stores:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/951860/Once_Ever_After/ 

https://sierralee.itch.io/once-ever-after 

DLsite Japanese: https://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ427066.html

(other stores, such as Nutaku and DLsite, are pending their approval processes)


There's some good news implicit in those links: I had previous believed that it would be completely impossible to host OEA on itch.io. After looking at some documentation and emailing their support, it turned out not to be an obstacle after all! As always, I try to provide alternates to support player choice.

Bad news: I wasn't able to jump through all the hoops for Nutaku and DLsite distribution this week. Nutaku needs multiple weeks to test compliance, apparently, and DLsite always has its own weirdness going on. Thanks to those who helped me not burn so much time on the censorship necessary for the Japanese version.

I now also have an official Patreon link, finally. For those who have been long-time patrons, all you need to do to receive a free copy is to message me. ^-^ Anyone who prefers to get the commercial versions, please leave reviews if possible!

So... while there are some lingering details and I may need to take some time for comments/bugs/etc, this mostly closes the book on this game. Another completed 1.0.0 in the bag!

OEA 0.7.0 on Steam

The newest version of Once Ever After is now available to everyone who owns the game on Steam! More here, if you haven't already played it:

(a little teaser of some added content)

This is my last planned content update for this game, so my intent is for it to leave Early Access and be finished (for good) once I've confirmed there are no standing issues. That is also the time that the finished game will appear in other stores, which will be announced here.
