Exposure I believe, possibly also that for the intial period it was rather obscure how to get the girls. And that the adult game market is very oriented towards niche instead of mainstream as its current stage of life.
- Holiday Island is not all that exposed on the most high traffic sites, so it can actually be rather tricky to "discover" it. Which obviously makes growth slower. Likely the most obvious reason, also been discussed before in thread.
-That even if rather dedicated it was until recently rather tricky to work around the scenes and get them, so there is an initial "wall" to newcomers that likely filter some potential patreons out.
The help section and intro should likely explain the phone and the tips there to get scenes even better to alliviate the "how on earth do I do that" problem (will reduce itself as more content is added as the rng will then hit content much more often by chance).
- The trend over the last years have been into never never land of niche (everything is a copy+paste incest, demon domination, corruption squared with more corruption to ... is there a word for more corruption than corruption?, forced non-consensual competing with JP on weird things game ... to each their own mind you, we all have preference but still, all that is super niche, in general).
Which somewhat leaves mainstream (which this very much is) as a smaller niche than the niches. Since those looking for mainstream simply dont go to those sites. So the mainstream in this market is bizarrely the niche.
The niches simply bloat the mainstream out (which will change over time I believe for quality games as this, even steam is slowly letting adult games in and some do well) so one needs to grow the market first with good games as this game.
If Holiday island ex. was allowed launched in its final version on a mainstream (extreme example here) ex. Stream. it would be likely to do very good because it ticks of most boxes that the mainstream market would go for, ex Busty babes, babe quality is sky high, Large volume of girls, Busty is very solid move in mainstream, vanilla, vanilla+ and roleplay sex with desirable women. And add to this surprisingly decent writing & above and beyond developer support.
Disclaimer : all imo of course

Yes, I agree. The frightening thing is this game still has so much potential to grow. The things that the developer can add here are limitless. Love it & can't wait to see what comes next.

Couldn't agree more. After testing the game with a $1 pledge I immediately increased to a higher tier as it's a REALLY well made game. Darkhound's renders are amazing in their attention to detail and overall quality, developer interaction with the Patreon community is fantastic, and the clear path that they chart for future updates is a real breath of fresh air.
Then again, I also agree with Partanen about more people derailing the thread

Darkhound is on a week vacation (easter) so no poll was done yet.
Easter Holidays are usually Thursday (today), Friday, Sunday and Monday in northern and central European countries (Darkhound is German I believe?). So it is very common to take the week before off (mon - wed).
Would assume Monday, likely Tuesday before new things happens, just a guess of course.
From Patreon, posed 24th of March.
- I will be away on holidays for one week starting later today, so there won't be any updates during that time.

Yup, still two days away from home
After that I need to finish 0.09alpha before the girl selection poll for 0.1.0beta will be added.
Probably one or two other polls for 0.1.0 content will be done too.
hi all, i have a problem with alice tanning topless on the beach, with jennifer it was easy, but with alice i can't.
i'm alone with her and she wears the skimpy bikini.

I'm guessing you meant Jessica and not Jennifer. For starters Alice needs to be in her Blue bikini. After that I have no idea what you have tried so it is hard to offer suggestions. Unless you do not want to play the game and just want a step-by-step walkthrough. Put Alice in her blue bikini and try a few different things and then report back.

Hi guys and gals,
I'm thinking about adding one new girl to the island in version 0.1.0.
Let me know what you think about the idea.
If you like the idea, I will do promo pics for three girls and 10$+ patrons will be able to decide which one it's gonna be
Since some of you were asking for an asian girl.
Here is Yumiko. Hope you like her.
PS: I'm back from holidays
