Kindred Spirits On The Roof (PC)

is going to be released on Steam without censorship. This is notable because Steam will not normally publish things that they consider obscene.

In this case, the game depicts intimate lesbian scenes featuring uncovered breasts and nipples, but no images of the lower half of anyone's bodies.

Quote:
Some comments from Kouryuu, our head translator:

“It’s great to see our years of effort finally paying off as visual novels containing adult content gain more mainstream acceptance and recognition as a valuable medium for artistic expression.

This is monumental news for the industry as a whole. Everything will be open and up-front with this release; no off-site patch or workarounds. Kindred Spirits will be sold on Steam completely uncensored. Seeing frank depictions of same-sex relationships welcomed on such a major gaming platform is a true testament to the open-mindedness of our society and the growing desire for mature entertainment that people of all walks of life can enjoy.”
 I don't see any pre-order page up yet.
