Hi!
I'm thinking of making a Renpy game with Honey Select renders, so my question is for veteran developers who published their games on stores like: Steam, DLsite, ...etc.
does buying Honey Studio allow me to use it for such commercial purposes? Legally speaking if I, at some point decided to publish it on a store for people to buy it.

Not a veteran, but from everything i read a bout it: nope totally illegal.

You can get away with it on patreon because devs use the japanese version but fakku, who own the rights of the english version, did try to cause problems to devs on patreon too.

It's very doubtful a game with an high enough profile to be published on steam would get away with it.

Oh that's a shame :(
Thanks a lot!
