Why does Aly not score very well? She's not even the body type I usually go for, I'm usually all about petites, but Aly's just so damned adorable. Darkhound did a great job creating extremely cute faces for Aly and Yvette.
I'm only following the game and this forum since version 0.10 so I missed a lot of things that happened concerning the game and how it had been evolving but still have my own thoughts about it.
I suspect something similar to the "small" breasted girls low popularity has actually happen with Aly too. As the game started with very busty girls, the first followers and patreons of the game probably were very busty girls lovers and started a natural and understandable cicle. Most busty gils lovers leads to more busty girls content the leads to more busty girls lovers and so on.
Maybe with Aly happened something similar because she is the only curvy faced girl in the island. Probably the most of the game followers are people who preffers thin faced girls because there are way more thin faced girls and way more content for them in another logical spiral.
This ends in one of the most interesting consideration that any creator must face. What's better, consolidate your niche or try to look for new ones?
I'm not a business analyst, but as a huge Aly supporter, I'm very affraid when you are still on the in-development stage of your product it would probably be better to consolidate your current segments. At the end, those people are who are supporting economically the game.
