Part 2 - V0.9 Release Details

We are so excited to introduce you to a fresh, new location for Prince of Suburbia with this first beach update! We hope you will have as much fun playing it as we had making it!

We'd like to extend a special THANK YOU to those who helped with this update:

Auxiliaryout, for all the art and animations

BananasFoster, for help with promotion and trailers

Kitty Kaplan, for help writing the Sonia, Sarah and Catherine scenes

HaruLuna, for the amazing voice acting

Mute Hazelnut, for help writing the Fiona and Samantha scenes

And all of our play testers who are helping with testing right now!

And, of course, a HUGE THANK YOU to our generous supporters who made this update possible!

The first beach update, Part 2 - V0.9 of Prince of Suburbia includes:

8 scenes

~20,000 words

6 new backgrounds

35 2D illustrations

21 2D animations

This update cycle also included 2 remastered scenes from Part 1 - V0.55 with Heather and Naomi (which were already released publicly back in December).

Development of the second beach update (Part 2 - V0.95) is already in progress and is estimated to release Spring 2023!

IMPORTANT: Pricing Changes for this Update

tl;dr: Starting with the Part 2 - V0.9 update, only active $5 tier Patrons/Subscribers with a lifetime pledge of $10+ will gain Early Access starting Jan 23.

How we price access for Prince of Suburbia is changing with this update in order to comply with Steam pricing rules, and to be fair to our customers across all platforms. Most importantly: We cannot sell the game on any platform for less than it sells on Steam.

Another change this update is that the $5 tier on Patreon and SubscribeStar is now considered part of Early Release because it will happen before the Public Release on Itch.io and Steam.

We have to wait for translations to be completed before Public Release on other platforms. Early Release on Patreon/SS will be ENGLISH ONLY.

Once the translations for Part 2 - V0.9 are completed, we will have a Public Release on Itch.io and Steam. At that point, any Patron/Subscriber with a lifetime pledge of $10+ (regardless of their current tier) will have access to the most recent version of the game, as well.

We do not predict this will impact a large number of fans. Over 80% of our current Patrons/Subscribers already have a lifetime pledge of $10+. Also, the majority of our fans that purchase updates on Patreon/SS have already purchased an update in the past. Anyone that pledged the $5 tier for even one previous update will meet the $10 minimum when they pledge the $5 tier for this update.

The only fans affected by this change will be ones that have never purchased an update before on Patreon/SS, but want Early Access to Part 2 - V0.9 before it is available on Itch.io or Steam. They will need to either pledge a $10+ tier to start, or wait until their lifetime pledge amount reaches a minimum $10.

The good news is that much like Itch.io or Steam, where once you purchase the game you have access to all future updates, all Patrons/Subscribers who have a lifetime pledge of $10+ will also have access to future updates once they are in Public Release. Being in the $5 tier to gain access only applies during Early Release.

We will have a post with the download links available to $10+ tier Patrons/Subscribers starting Jan 20. On Jan 23, we will send a private message to all $5 tier Patrons/Subscribers with a lifetime pledge of $10+.

Any new $5 tier Patrons/Subscribers that sign up after Jan 23 who also meet the $10+ minimum should message us on Patreon/SS for a link. Once Public Release happens on Itch.io and Steam, any active Patron/Subscriber that meets the $10+ minimum and needs a download link can message us for one.

We do not anticipate a large number of fans will need to message us for a link, but we should be able to respond to any link requests we do get within 12 hours or less. We are also working on a web app that integrates with Patreon/SS to verify current tier and lifetime pledge amount as a more efficient long-term solution.

Please let us know if you have any questions about these changes! Thank you for your patience and understanding as our studio grows and adapts to having a presence on multiple platforms.
