I can't believe he's only making $1200.00, given his well done render quality and animations.
Can someone help me speculate as to why he's not making more $$$?
My only guess is because he's using RPGmaker, and perhaps the gameplay is too tedious for the masses? I play the Ren'py version of this game.
This is a game about the life and adventures of Lily in the city.
The game is not outdated the game has a good thoughtful city and very good scenes, the readers are also on top.
There is no official version of the game on another engine !
Transferring to REN will be the death of the game about Lily so the city and locations WILL DIE !
And as for why not more earns there are some assumptions and guesses regarding this:
1)
Early on the game was Rpg Maker Vx, but after a while [P and P] decided to bring the game to Rpg Maker Mv this gave the opportunity to 16:9 + remade some scenes.
But it also had consequences some people didn't like
the fact that [P and P] gave the place of the new update for their money.
Delays associated with the drive of the game to another engine as the transition of the game to another engine meant for patreon that new updates will have to wait even longer and for the transfer of the game to the arc engine + also some did not like the fact that [P and P] decided to spend their time and their patreon not to create a new update, but to rework some scenes with the words: We decided to improve some scenes WAIT SOON. For the people who supported [P and P] on patreon, there was a very significant fact that the new update is postponed and will have to wait longer and all for 2 small things (A new engine and reworking of scenes) and for this some stopped their support. This was Fact number #1.
But the newest and most important fact is why [P and P] does not earn even more $$$ in the front
2)
And it lies in the fact that [P and P] did not give a new update for Lily of the Valley for a VERY, VERY long time.
And all because of the fact that [P and P] began to make their new game, and not long ago thanks to the news from [P and P] it was confirmed that the very huge delayed new updates for Lily of the Valley is their new game and for which they began to make much longer new updates so they pay more attention to the new game than the new, updates to the game that people are waiting for.
According to the correct logic, [P and P] should at least devote 90% of their time to new updates for their MAIN GAME, i.e. for Lily of the Valley, since the sponsors keep [P and P] in order to release regular updates for Lily of the Valley .
But judging by the words [P and P] and the mention of their new game that [P and P] have done a lot of work with the new game, we can judge that [P and P] has a different logic about what is more important to do.
[P and P] Have already done the transfer of the game to another engine + some reworking of the scenes and why people had to wait longer for new updates
- And because of this, some people stopped supporting it
But if [P and P] makes a novel out of the game and transfers it to REN, there will also be consequences, and who can say how many people may stop supporting $$$
The game was conceived and made as it is now. Reworking to another engine will be a waste of time both [P and P] and all patreon +++ Let people think they need an extra delay with the release of new updates. If now updates are released less often because [P and P] are now devoting a lot of time to their new game and because of this, updates have become much less frequent than before, and IF [P and P] also plans to transfer to another engine again, then this is
A) Kills the game what it was and what it was made and the city will also die and there will be a place of the city a couple of pictures of the city and everything and the place of the game is still a novella.
C) Delays and so not small on waiting for new updates + their new game + even if they make a transfer of the game, you will have to wait 2 times longer for updates for Lily of the Valley.
The latest update was released after half a year
