a company decides about the shown content in any of your games if having a patreon beggars page? and you guys accept that just right away instead of looking for other ways to support the developers? ridiciolous !!! what has the company who is only involved in the donating part in ANY case todo with deciding what content im *allowed* to show in an ADULT xxx game and what not?? idk but u guys seem like spineless sheeps to me if u just accept this nonsense right away instead of looking for way better solutions sry but thats my honest opinion on this topic. before i would let other people decide what im allowed to show in my adult porn game for adults not kids for adults i would consider not getting any financial support at all before letting some corporate cockroaches decide over my project...it would be hilarious if it wouldnt be so sad...no wonder we only see this crap kind of games where any decision has nearly no meaning and let alone the darker themes at all...

idk but to me it sounds they dont have legit claim over the content of the creators but i can be wrong...;-)
Patreon is a private company, so they have the right to set and enforce their own rules. If you use your Patreon creator page to promote a game that includes incest, they can remove your content or even your page. In most cases, they’ll ask you to modify or remove that specific part rather than taking down the whole page but it often depends on the reviewer handling your case. Some are stricter than others. That said, these issues usually arise only if someone reports your content, and unfortunately, there are always people out there looking to cause trouble.
There are alternative platforms, but Patreon is still the best option for turning this hobby into a part-time or full-time income. The next best option would be Subscribestar Adult, but it likely has only 5–10% of the traffic that Patreon gets, which makes growing an audience there much harder.
If a creator wants to include incest-related content, one workaround is to provide an external patch via an alternate account or separate site. That way, the core game remains Patreon-compliant, and fans who want the patch can still access it elsewhere.
It’s a bit ironic I have seen people complain when a game uses the "landlady" workaround instead of family relationships, not realizing that using actual incest content could easily get the creator’s page taken down. And honestly, most creators aren’t going to risk losing their income. Whether it's a main job or a side hustle, most people making adult games want to get paid for their work. Of course it might take years or they might not be successful at all but that is just the risk you take as an developer.
I'd argue that creating an adult game is often far more profitable than trying to make an indie game and hoping it blows up on Steam
