Sorry but that is not the way how things work.We have plenty of examples of games that are bi-monthly or even 3-4 months and with 5-10 min real content,and make way more money than good games that have an update each month.
Imo the best way to gain patrons is releasing content at a steady pace, there are other factors of course, but steady updates are a big factor here.
Like I said in another thread,almost no one is releasing steady updates.Not to mention that don't bring more money.
Awam announced that he plans to launch an update for the first week of June ... I think this will be the same ... hopefully this month to keep me busy with these two during this monthMark my words ! Every game got delay now, AWAM, Milfy City, This game and many more. That is because I am 100% sure that they are planing to release the updates at the end of this month and take a vacation, besides Milfy City. So we are getting Update now and 2+ months no updates. If not this game I am 100% sure for AWAM, this guy dont care at all for his projects, he works when he wants and dont care if his updates took too much time, as long he takes money from it he will do what ever he wants. In the very moment this developers being cut from their money they will start realeasing updates extremely fast. I only respect Milfy City the developer there shows that he needs a vacation and froze his incoming money for that time!
This week/at least it is already the new week for me/ we are expecting JOHN 0.20,AWAM 0.080 and MP 0.3/Midnight Paradise/.Awam announced that he plans to launch an update for the first week of June ... I think this will be the same ... hopefully this month to keep me busy with these two during this month
Well then you can choose from only 10 games from around 500 titles.
There are some other higher rated titles like Good Girl Gone Bad, Our Fate, Where The Heart Is, Long Live The Princess that get for the most part consistent monthly updates. Maybe that's a big reason they are so successful.
Well that doesn't explain how the titles that are not consistent montly makes way more money than these 4 titles.
It depends what you consider big. Where The Heart Is brings ~5200 before Patreon take their cut. I would say that's big enough for some countries. The theme, the presentation, the quality of work matter more than consistent updates, but I would say if you update your project in the time frame you've set - there's a better chance to accumulate more interest and pledges than following "when it's done approach".Well that doesn't explain how the titles that are not consistent montly makes way more money than these 4 titles.
Not to mention that only GGGB is realy making big money.And these games don't have a release like 5-th each month/BB,Glamour-not anymore/,or last Friday/Saturday of the month/DMD,Melody/.
Also I said "and a couple others"
I know but sadly this is not the truth.Only 1 dev that makes constant updates/Mr.Dots-last Friday/Saturday of the month/ is realy among these that are making $20K+ or even if you decide to go only to $10K+ per month.All others are with when is ready.
I fully agree with you, also because stoper has decided that the updates will be brief and will focus on the quality and slow progression of the story. this in itself makes it perhaps a bit of a niche. for example in Jessica's game there are a lot of fetishes that I love but that aren't in the game. not bad because the quality is magnificent. but I am only one of many, while others can turn up their nose with policies like these.
the upcoming update will have both saturday and sunday
