Hey guys, it's been a while since I've been playing porn games, and I've been wanting to start working on my own.
I'm going to have a few months free from my current job, and I thought about using that time to start and launch a project. However, before that, I'd like to gather some opinions.

Could you use this straw poll and select what you like the most in a game? And do you prefer big games with recurring updates, shorter games with a simpler story, or other options?

Select what you want and comment down below as well. I'll be looking at all feedback.
Particularly, almost no tag displeases me, so I have an open mind. And if I decide on content that doesn't please many, I'll make sure it's optional. I'm very grateful to anyone who gives attention to this.

Design a game and story idea based on what turns YOU on. Once you do that, share it here, then people will help flesh out all the sub-genres, of whatever it is that turns you on.

Your post is too general, it's the wrong approach IMO. You need to come up with a game and story idea that erotically stimulates you; then that becomes your base, your foundation to build upon.

What turns you on? Start from there. Humans are not that different from each other, meaning there will be other people like you, who are turned on by what you're turned on by.

Nice. I wish everyone who had similar questions did like this guy, by creating a poll with all their questions in it and then just let me tick the boxes. So convenient. :cool::coffee:

I'm so pleased that i'll write a little extra for you:
1. If you want to make a GAME, and not a glorified book, then you will require gameplay.
2. Don't do combat if you can't make it good, bad combat will only annoy everyone.
3. Background sounds and music can elevate your project to a new level, at the cost of increased size.
4. Animation is nice to have if done well, but not a necessity.
5. A good story is a good foundation.
6. Plan everything ahead.
7. The more money pipes you have leading towards your bank account the better.
So go and register on all those patreons, substars, buymeacoffee's, etc. The more pipes you have the better.
8. Work hard, be creative, research and learn.

Good luck~ :giggle::coffee:

Jesus christ what is this, F95Zone creates your game?

If you want to make a game that pleases everyone, or even just the majority, put everything into it. It has to have incest but no incest, lesbian but no lesbian. Make sure there's NTR but also NTR, not even optionally. Make it short and sweet but also long and worthwhile. And release it all in one go and update it at the exact moment everyone wants you to.

Seriously though, whatever idea you have, cut it in half. Then cut it in half again. Now release that and then get back to us.

Everyone has likes or dislikes the poll you made isn't gonna solve anything mainly because it's gonna be just a conflict of likes/dislikes. Overall you need a general direction before you can make a poll. For example what do you wanna do:

-Visual novel
-RPG
-Dating sim
-Strategy game

Then you need to select a subgenre, for example one of the subgenres that I like the most are battlefucks, mainly they are RPG's in which most of the sex scenes happen during the fight and as a result of winning/losing it.

When you have a basic style of game is when you can ask meaningful questions, for example in the subgenre I gave, the battlefucks, it can be related to succubi (mostly level drain based), normal girls (mostly femdom based and related to character relationships) or monster girls (focusing on variety of monster girls overall).

Even more it's better to do more focused polls if you wanna obtain good information, current poll that you did won't truly give anything useful.

At the very least do the following:

*Write about the situation you want the MC to be in (for example is he an adventurer? a traveller? did he get sucked into another dimension?)
*Define what type of gameplay are you able to make
*Define the specific genre of the game (RPG, strategy, visual novel...)
*Define subgenre if needed.

You won't get anything useful without at least defining that, even more if it's so basic what you defined you need to let people choose between story concepts, not fetishes.

For example here is an example of what would give a better input:

Option A: The story begins with our MC being a simple farmer in his village, one day when he went into the village's forest he ends up discovering a dungeon and curiosity made him try to explore it, while exploring it he got scared because of some noises and ran towards the exit, after leaving he didn't notice anything weird and decided to go back to his village, to his surprise he found a city and it seems only women reside in it.

Confused, the MC decided to ask a girl that saw just near the entrance, she is kind enough to help the MC learn about the basics and his situation, explaining that this city only has succubi descendants and that's why there are only women, after doing a tour with the MC she invites him to her house to sleep and there he assaults him, taking away his levels and making him level 1.

She explains that it was the payment for her help and that because she feels kinda bad for the MC she will let him stay in the cottage near her house for a week while he tries to get a job and a place to stay, she also explains that he needs to be more careful and have a bigger willpower because if not he may end up as a slave for other girls to play with, because of succubus blood all girls in this town have high charm and the ability to at least drain his levels so he will need to:

1º Improve his willpower
2º Improve his sex skills
3º Improve his level
4º Find a job and try to earn money

Option B: You are the leader of an exploration party, which focuses on exploring dungeons to find reliqs and riches, however the main problem is that many of the dungeons/ruins have curses that can have an effect on your party, which may change them physically (increasing/reducing breast size, transforming them towards certain transformations such as bimbo, cowgirl, goblin...) or mentally (making them more dominant/submissive and changing their sexual likes/dislikes).

The party would consist on the MC (swordman), thief girl, priestess and sorceress and the game would focus mostly on their party interactions, their relationship and solving transformations/curses, also about interactions with other citicens of the city they reside in.

Option C: You are a mercenary in a world in which you have plenty of work, three kingdoms are currently fighting each other for supremacy and it is in your hand to help any of them in exchange of money, in time you will create a mercenary band and who knows, perhaps you will end up being the black horse in this fight for supremacy? in the start you and your female childhood friend will become mercenaries after leaving your village starting by doing some low level contracts and rising the ranks of the mercenary guild.

The game would be focused on interacting with the important characters of each faction, recruit new members for your mercenary group and increase your fame.



After you have chosen a concept then is when you decide what fetishes you want to add, for example in option A you want futanari? then the city has nobles which are known to be a futanari or there is a way for succubi descendants to purify their blood which as a consequence would make them futanari, you want NTR? then said nobles will try to seduce other characters in the city and in the case you own a slave they can duel you for her ownership.

Same for option B by adding curses related to that stuff and option C by what type of people you meet and if they can actually seduce your childhood friends and other members of your mercenary party, after you have chosen a concept it's quite easy to fit in the fetishes you want.

Like the others have said, you cannot make a game based off of what a bunch of people in a poll want. If you try that, you are not going to like what you are making, and that will be felt in the quality of the game.

They no longer allow adult content nor anything related to it: .
Who cares? You can just use 'em til you get banned.
Same as how some people use patreon even when they create content patreon doesn't like.
One of the reasons why it's beneficial to have many money pipes, if one gets cut you will take no damage. :whistle::coffee:

There's a pretty high likelihood that you'll get banned from the payment processor along with the BuyMeACoffee account. The pipe itself really doesn't matter much, but the payment processors out there are limited. So, you will take damage, at least in that way.

If you are planning to spend a few months working hard at a game for no income, maybe you have steel resolve, but I couldn't sustain that if the game I was making wasn't entirely playing into what I find attractive. Sure, some things are not dealbreakers to add, but it is a question of how far you're willing to stray outside of your own tastes. With the research, googling, coding, bug fixing, modeling, posing (Or of course downloading and editing) and UI design and all that, there's already bound to be stretches of development that don't speak to you at all. That can be overcome by developing towards your tastes, knowing it will all come together to be the game you are really excited for. If it's made for mass appeal it's going to be superbloated with a lot of stuff you don't care about much and development will be violently slow.

I understand you are interested in what people like, but outside of the very common tags that imo are more neutral (not a dealmaker or dealbreaker) you do start running into the 'excluded tags' issue. If you add everything including tags I've excluded, I will never see you show up on the update page.

And then there is the lipservice problem, if you include a tag I'm all about and it turns out to only be 1 scene rather than a main focus, I'd feel annoyed. Seeing the neighbour across the street scissor her yoga instructor may earn you the lesbian tag but for people who really want lesbian content that wouldn't at all suffice I imagine.

So as the people before me said more succinctly, make the game you'd want to play that tickles your fancy and be careful of scopecreep.

Don't make a game if you need to make a poll to know what to make.
