Bar for the Japs and the Chinese (both not particularly positive on foreign languages as far as I know), In My Very Humble Opinion it's a bit of a wasted effort, most of us are ESL and.... seriously.... hentai-speak sounds hilarious in English, I can only wonder how it sounds in my native language.

Just for fun, translation would be a free volunteer thing, right? And how many lines we're talking about?
I agree, it seems like a wasted effort, unless it will actually attract some new patreons? that could maybe happened.

"So far its Portuguese, German, Japanese, Chinese, French and Russian. Currently looking for Italian and Spanish translators. "
Mhm but i think for Asia they need to put it on their Hentai storefront , steam is not that popular there and they certainly don't come to it looking for hentai.

So I checked and I have a few things to say:

1) You saved in front of the wrong convenience store. That's not Sato's.
2) I entered (or tried to enter) both convenience stores just in case but I couldn't enter Sato's because you haven't even accepted the 7/11 job at the town hall in that save.
3) You have the teleport ring in your inventory.
4) The game doesn't crash on my end.

These are huge red flags so I'm going to assume the game crashed because you fucked it up. Teleportation ring is not noob friendly, hence why there's a big disclaimer before you accept it. I can tell that you already completely botched that save because in Ayame's house the tile passability script is dead which is caused by using the teleport ring at a bad time. Learned that the hard way.

Rule of thumb. If you use CTRL to walk through walls and/or use the teleportation ring, don't bother posting bug reports.

Yo I'm french and here hentai (really all porn) is NOT illegal. There's a time and place for it. Usually you have to have a curtain or a door in between "e for everyone" and "m for mmm pussy" but it's definitely not illegal.

Which countries are those? North Korea?
Anyway one of the big reasons why they dont get more support are pledge tiers. Basically there should have been like a 5$ tier that gives access to patch releases. 10$ per month is way too much for many people to drop on a single Patreon game.

Yeah, lol, not everyone lives in UK or Germany or US. $ is strong currency for many. Setting first tier at 10 is doing yourself a disservice

If people don't support them at least here and then with 10$ they wouldn't support them with 5$ either. They probably know how many unique supporters they had in last months. My guess is that at 5$ they would need over 1k supporters to have same amount pledged as now so it wouldn't really work.

Plenty of other projects charge 10$/month, some have 5$ tier for a censored version lol. Its a manner of whatever they give enough content to charge that much.

Now this got me thinking about the retail price in relation to how much content there is. It has like twice the content of a pretty beefy h-game, not to mention those that release with just couple scenes (and still sell!). But people won't really pay more then for regular h-game :/. Two smaller games would let them monetize better....

Maybe having a patch every month ( for half the actual 2-month content) for 5$ would do a little better, but these are just thoughts. Don't really know how much other hentai games cost, but i think this one could easily go for 20-25$ at least

All I know is, these guys are doing 12-16 scenes per month while there are milkers like Geeseki who earn the same or Redamz/DarkCookie doing 1-4 scenes per half a year+ This is why I loath all people who support these...It's not just alansya chronicles, there are other devs working hard but not receiving much attention taffy tales, charao girl, meh list is very long, keep pouring money where you shouldn't and whenever something unfair happens to yourself complain how world is unfair. Karma.

They used to do that way back. There was a voting and they decided to do the patches more spaced out with more content.

I doubt that. Looking at stuff like Summertime Saga the frequency of releases dosent seem to be that important for success.
I think its mostly the fetish. Eroge itself are a pretty small niche in the west, NTR games are a niche in a niche. That massively limits the amount of possible supporters.

Next games won’t have much in common with NTR so their income should significantly increase.
