I mean, Patreon exists toThat's a common issue with Patreon games.
It does make a lot of sense business-wise, if your game is decently popular it's safer to milk it for as long as possible than get a quick burst of cash from releasing a finished product. Not all folks that support the current game's development will stay to support the next one's.
That's why so many games like this are perpetually work-in-progress. That being said, it is quite different than Star Citizen in that if they wanted, they could likely finish stuff up eventually, Star Citizen is most likely never going to be what was promised. And nobody expects cutting edge technology from most porn games, but SC actually sold itself partially on how incredible it sounded at time of announcement.
Moral of the story is that Patreon is basically a fully legal scam if you're expecting any sort of professional productive timeline off of it. But if you just want to support an artist like you're a Medici on a budget, go hog wild!
