I think you're a bit early on this one though.
Seems like there's at least some kind of content update planned ->

I just did some math and this game apparently made 105k before taking away whatever share dlsite takes. 7k buys for 15 dollars.
I guess that it's actually profitable to shit out this obviously low quality product on a yearly basis. People will buy it..
This guy sells consistently well though. Releases a game every 1,5 to 2 years I guess.
So excluding fees/taxes/..., (105K/2)/Year. That's about 52K/Yr. Not exactly getting rich off that is he now?
Also, if there's multiple people on the team even less so. At least if it's a full-time job, then I hope they earn more than just what it looks like at first glance on dlsite (Fanza? Other platforms?).
On the 'low end' of 1,5 years of DEV time it gets a bit nicer, if it's a one-man team. But still.
I think I only played the one Kagura did, the purple haired exorcist thing. Wasn't all that bad really.
So after a few quality releases, you pretty much sell based on name recognition alone ya know.
