There are some text-based porn games. I don't how profitable they are, but I jerk off to them, so there is that.

If you had made this good game with bad art in 2015 at Patreon, you would make good money.

We're already arriving in the middle of 2018, the competition there is already brutal and only increases every day. If you make a fun and interesting game, it will earn you some money. But you will not get rich like the pioneers. And you're going to have to spend a lot of time with marketing.

Surely you would get no money from me.

Drawing style is the main thing i evaluate in porn games. Many times i discarded a game just by looking at one screenshot.

Text games, i don't even bother to check them.

But he said "good gameplay/writing"

Summertime saga is raking it in so fuck if I know, worth a shot

post your art faggot

Whenever i chose to try a game, i pick the one with the best art first, i avoid everything rpgm for example, or amateurish interface.

I have yet to see a project i would gave any sort of money for it.

It depends.

If you're asking "will people give me money, even though there's no eye candy", then, yes, you might earn enough to buy yourself a meal or two. Some people just spend their dollars on stupid things, I don't know. But if you're aiming at the kind of money Lewd Labs makes, or any other top porn creator at Patreon, then, no. This is not the 2000's; there's just too much visual content to compete with. Every cute girl out there is posting candid nude pictures of their toned abs and big boobs for free on Instagram or Facebook.

"Oh, but I might just be the next E. L. James, you never know!" No, you're not. Definitely.

Next question.

Depends on the content of your gameplay and writing. Personally, no art > shit art.

This, I'd rather play an erotic full-text game than deal with awful art.

I share this view, however, the vast majority of people will not choose either option. Is art too bad? They will not waste time with the game. Is it just text? They also will not waste time with the game.
