In my opinion that's just a subjective feeling. My older brother has been playing illusion games since I was a child at plain sight. Those games had (and have) a huuuuge audience even in western countries. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.I've been a bit hard because I want to see this game grow the way it should and because the art makes me drool, especially with HP girls. And I'm clearly not the only one, let's just have a look at WT from Akabur : I think we can safely say that it is the game that made all the h/porn game genre explode. Many have discovered that small world with it, it's my case for instance.
I think that you can become one of the biggest patreon adult games creators if you play your cards well with that game. Look, you're at 5.5k $ a month with very little, grinding, content. What would happen if you did regular, content filled updates ? I know I'd have no problem subscribing for 5 $ a month if that was the case.
I still hope though that you won't give in to the "ok they want sex ? i'll give them sex !" too much, the fact that you're "late" doesn't change the fact that you need good build up and good story. Do it little by little, but just... do it.
In my opinion, a game that actually changed the rules was Artificial Girl 3. A lot of users stopped playing .swf games after that. But that was a lot of years ago, I think. I didn't feel it by myself.
For many years, the most common hentai games have been flash format, .swf. There have been tons of them, and hundred of pages dedicated to them. Now they are declining in favor of usually more elaborated games but they were a huge success.
Honestly, I'd like to see something like a "history of hentai games" article sometime. Could be really interesting. My subjective experience is that recently there are less porn games but with more quality in general. There are a lot of scams, games in initial phases that will never be completed and that exist to get money out of people. That may be damaging the "industry".
I could be wrong.
