To be clear, dev has said they are working on 0.2, so they aren't waiting until the goal is reached to continue development.Have to add something after reading that patreon post about not working on the game if the 2500 bucks per month is not reached.
2500 $ is definitely reachable if the next updates are on time and of the same quality. But maybe it is a little bit too much to expect so many people to support you after only one release. I bet most people wait for maybe 2 or 3 updates to see if the developer is really dedicated to the project before supporting.
Anyway hope it will continue.
True. Milky Touch, for example, another high rated 2D game with very beautiful visuals is in active development since April 2019 and they are up to $2528/month now. After 1.5 years.I don't know, some 2D games are doing more than 2.500 $ but there are great art VNs making less after months/years of work and updates. So far this VN seems to be vanilla focused, another factor to keep in mind if you want money, usually the biggest cash cows are or were kink focused.
Good art is expensive, great, but ultimately value is what someone is willing to pay. I'm sure everyone here knows some underated gems doing almost nothing on Patreon.
First let me start by saying, latest or not feel free to quote or reply if it means getting your 2 cent across, I am the last person to actually try take things the wrong way and am down for whatever perspective someone else has.I could have replied to almost any other post, but since yours is last here goes.
Economics (and price) boils down to supply and demand. Simple as that.
If her game is good enough and enough people agree with her 2500 goal, then good for her.
Personally I think it's unrealistic, and is doomed to fail (like you say in your post), but it's not wrong for her to try.
Ultimately, people might think her art and POC is so good that they want to back her fully. Other might think they want to hang back and see what happens, before supporting.
I have never been a fan of accusing devs of milking. Devs work hard and for them to expect payment is not unreasonable. The limiting factor is again Supply and demand. Your game (supply) needs to have enough demand, so that you can reach your goal. Price is a way of changing demand, so wanting $2500 might make the demand less, causing you to fail.
What other freelance artist etc get, is irrelevant. The demand for their work is more, so they can charge more. Obviously the more famous you get, like MR Dots, the more people want to play your games, the more they are willing to pay. I know patreon is not a pay to play system, but it still boils down to the demand to play the game. In this case popularity = demand.
Done with my 2 cents
Saw that, and its nice to know if you want to pledge to their project. But the wording of their goal should really been changed to something else that doesn't imply they wouldn't unless goal is reached.To be clear, dev has said they are working on 0.2, so they aren't waiting until the goal is reached to continue development.
I suppose other creators on the site got some serious competition when it come to exposure now! That being said I hope they end up get the level of attention for all the right reasons not necessary for the creators instagram.This game is written and programmed by an erotic model with 30k followers in instagram,You must be registered to see the links, and the art is developed by a friend of hers.

This is the message that she post in her instagram:
"I'm very nervous
I just released the game, you have the links to download it for free in the P4treon that is in my BIO.
It is a job of many months and a lot of love, I hope you like it ♥ ️ ♥ ️ ♥ ️
And you already know that all diffusion is appreciated, it will be thanks to you if this works."

She even answered me that she is thinking in making a character of her, who will appear in future chapters.
I think this can have a huge success.
