Hey! Had a couple questions for y'all.

So long story short: I'm jealous as hell that half-baked VNs are making thousands monthly for shit products, and know I can do better without being so like… scummy. Trying to figure out how to get my foot in the door to start making that sweet, sweet Patreon money once I get development underway, without pissing off half my player base. Any tips, anons?

The game concept I'm working on is straight up "A Town Uncovered but if it actually used its story premise well," and I can share more if y'all want.

>I want to make easy money like them!

>But I'm not like them, guys, honest!

I like the concept, though, make the game without the cuckshit and you're set. You can literally rip-off the best parts of these games without any of the bad, for example, Summertime Saga without the split routes bullshit and minus the gay shit.

But since you're going for patreon, I bet there's no incest, that means your project is already dead. Fuck off.

Hey, if folks want to dump cash for porn devs I'm not gonna say no, and if I was gonna develop anyway might as well get paid while I do it. I'm not gonna charge people for what boils down to "Oh, I fixed a few typos and added two throwaway lines of dialogue." though.

None of that shit flies with me.

Anyway, incest is super in the cards (but mostly in the like, Coraline "Other Mother isn't REALLY her mom" kinda way unless you do side-quests). Patreon thing I can plan around.

find a good artist, make up a good story, don't feature creep, stick to one genre. Make a game for a niche group, not for everyone. Trying to make something that pleases everyone pleases no one. No promises, be realistic with the goals and time to get them done. Don't make the game at $10 to access it, put it on $1 and make higher tiers for voting on shit in the game.

There's no way around it, if they are "thought as a family" then it's incest for patreon, even if she isn't "your real mother", so even roleplay fall in his fucking rule.

You still sound like a shit person and I hope the project doesn't succeed.

Listen to this anon.

1.)Don't overhype the game

2.)Make sure the first release has a moderate amount of content.

3.)If a problem comes up like an injury or family problems. Update your fans.

4.)Don't sacrifice quality over quantity.

Keep in mind that many of the successful people with bad games at Patreon started a long time ago, when basically they had no competition.

Today the scenario is different, it is still possible to make money and a good game will most likely stand out. But times have changed. A good example is Mr. Dots, he has more than 3,000 patrons, but if by chance he started today with that crappy game he's doing, he'd probably suffer to get 300 patrons.

What I mean: you should not be guided by the projects that worked. It's not because you have so much bad games making a lot of money that a good game will make you rich.

90% of patreon porn projects are shitty incest visual novels with shitty daz models. As soon as I see a new 'game' and see these fucking lazy daz renders I immediately turn away.

There has to be something unique for me to be interested and even more for wanting to support it.

Having a unique art style or interesting gameplay helps a lot. Thats why so many akabur art style clones and brothel management games popped up.
