Story mode has been added on R11 which allows you to play only the Visual Novel part of the game, skipping the gameplay.
This is ideal for those wishing to replay the game again in order to pick different choices, or simply want to play a pure visual novel.
If you have been holding off from playing the game because you do not like the gameplay aspect, this is a good time to consider playing again!

Following this change, I began considering the possibility of remaking the game for Android which, because of technical limitations, would feature only the Visual Novel part.
A new temporary goal (Reaching 170 patrons) has been added to the patreon page in order to keep track of how many people are interested in this, alongside this poll's results.

The reason why Android has not been supported in the past is because it is not as easy as building the game for Android alongside the other platforms.
Aside from the technical limitations (Real time 3D for dungeon crawling), the UI and other features are made with a computer in mind.

In order to support Android, I need to remake the game separately; While the assets will be reused (with a few changes to avoid hitting the size limit) as well as the text (Some of which needs to be rewritten or expanded in other to fit all the scenes in a VN only format), it will still be a time consuming task hence why reaching the goal and confirming your interest for an android build here is so important.

Let me know about your opinion!
