I've been on this site for about half a year, and so far, I'm starting to become disappointed with what's on offer. Right now, most of the games involve cheating, incest, as well as trainer games. Like I've said before, all-girl/lesbian is my favorite porn genre. Even with applying the 'female protagonist' and 'lesbian' tags together, most of the games have the girl being corrupted into a cock-obsessed slut, and what little lesbian content is there are buried under troves of dick sucking and fucking without any choice to ignore them and go a complete lesbian path so why bother having a 'lesbian' tag at all? When I wanted an all-girl game, I want an all-girl game. One without the D, or where the girl becomes a cock-obsessed slut, you know? Now where am I going to go? Most of the good ones are either take too long to update or get scrapped by developers pretty early. I think there should be more games like this, you know? Now, my question to any developers out there. Have you ever considered making a lesbian game? If so, why haven't you taken the opportunity sooner? If not, why?

I remember this particular lesbian/female protagonist game, high life earned around $1096 at its peak, but when the developer gave up on it, it slowly declined, but still he earns doing virtually nothing. Last post was made in march 20/2019, and he still earns $169 per month. So I think lesbian games can make a huge success if it's done with a good story, otherwise it is more likely to fail compared to other genres like incest, milf, harem. No offence, big brother had an awful story, but it's really successful due to its genre, and graphics. So the game has to be designed for the targeted audience, and their mindset to be successful. Nowadays I work on a visual novel, and it has a female protagonist. I didn't decide her sexuality yet, but I feel like instead of turning her into a full blown lesbian, allow the player to make a choice.

Considered lesbian elements, but no not a full on lesbian game. All my fetishes involve a dick somehow and with all my projects being free I'm not working on something I don't have skin in.
I'll turn that question around on you. Why haven't you made a game with lesbian only content? RPGMaker is very easy to use, and you can even make a legitimate TWINE game with little to no coding experience. There's an absolute ocean of lesbian porn images you could even use for it.

Yeah I think it's because most people who come here look for content in games that can't be fleshed out in porn films or adult content. That's why you don't see a lot of vanilla adult games, as in vanilla non-fetish relationships with vanilla sex. Instead you see fetish themed games, where they may be a lack of demand in pornography.
Lesbian is something I would consider vanilla, no offense. Along with anal for example. That alone isn't sufficient to hold up the content of an entire game and keep people interested in my opinion. You need novelty.

It's interesting opinion. But in some time there is hundreds of very popular school/college setting games which in my opinion no matter how devs call them are almost 100% vanilla.
Yeah, I think the same.I'm making lesbian game but considering to change something because game is very-very unpopular.
Well, replying the OP, nearly every developer wants their game worth the sacrifice that was made to create it. If it doesn't sell enough, you'll put your efforts in other, more efficient genres, like incest. Incest is the best example of it. It's like to be a youtuber and use the easy way: minecraft, fortnite or whatever people play and watch to become popular faster.
In a nutshell, it's the market.
You don't get it.
This is about people who don't want to see any others elements beside lesbian in the game. 
Änd did you ever payed for any of that games that have too long to update or get scrapped by developers pretty early?
Cause if not. You have now answer, why they were scrapped.

The problem is that "lesbian elements" don't make a lesbian game. Starting a lesbian scene and then making a male character join in is a huge bucket of cold water - poured right on my dick! The lesbian tag is useless, because every game gets it, as long as it has a picture with two or more women in it. A game is only truely a lesbian game, if it can be played in a lesbian only way.
In my game is just few pure lesbian scenes.
Problem is that lesbian only game is for really narrow audience. And making game just for that small amount, depending on big amount of time to create something good enough is just wasting resources.
People still don't get it.
Why you so sure you will be able to make good lesbian game when you have money, time and other resources?
Even famous literature professionals have trouble when they trying elaborate deep women characters.
I'm not said anywhere that I'm able to make good lesbian game. I'm just said that there is small audience so only limited numbers of developers will even try to do that and that means not good lesiabn games or almost no lesbian games. that's all.People still don't get it.

It's like opening icecream shop on Antarctida.
I'm nature debater.
I'm supposing we don't really know how big lesbian games audience is. The only true fact we known it's hard to work in lesbian niche.

The problem is most of the game developers think from the traditional male perspective, meaning there is a guy, and a woman(or multiple women), then he wants to get into her pant, then he does a series of activities to make it possible. It's honestly quite lame how women throw themselves at MC in a lot of games. That's the core of most of the games here. A lot of lesbian women don't like that approach, they want it to be more emotional, the story has to be evolved properly, character development is important as well, then sex be a part of it to share the mutual feelings. I am not saying lesbian women don't enjoy sex, but they do it along with a good story. Of course it's not possible to generalize everyone, but that's what majority of them enjoy. This can't be done with a small game, it needs a lot of texts, but not too much to make the reader bored. so the developer has to manage it cleverly. So I think it can be challenging, but it's worth because it's still an untapped gold mine. I don't think the audience is low in number, but they are not fans of poor quality games.I'm nature debater.

True, it's also possible to extend further in technical point like the engine used.
I noticed that a big majority of games made under renpy, so vn with varying range of gameplay, tend to focus on males perspectives. Can't really tell if it's because the audience and players prefer to play as male characters in these type of games, or if it's because majority of said players are male and find it easier to associate to a male protagonist.
Same thing for devs I guess, easier to tell a story when the character you create is the same sex as you.
While on the reverse, rpgm games are most often than not with female protagonist, but are also more focused on smut, with mostly males characters, letting the emotion / build up / relationship part a bit out.
Maybe because rpgm give a more external feeling to players, like they are not playing as this female protagonist, more like external watcher controlling her action. A bit hard to explain...
As for the lesbian part, I can't really say, it's not uncommon to see lesbian scenes or plot in these adult games, but it's rare for it to be the "main" romance plot.
Maybe (saying that a lot ^^') because it's games. A quite different media compared to films, books or doujins.
Everybody is different but for me, I love lesbian content in movies, video and doujin (even to an "only-lesbian" level for videos)
For VN I prefer male protag and for rpgm I prefer female protag, with a bigger focus on hetero content.
I won't continue talking about other themes like futanari, trap, sissy etc ^^'.

It may be due to the desire of many players (NOT including myself) to gain some degree of immersion in games, why they prefer content with relatable (i.e. male) characters. While as a non-immersive player, I don't get the mindset, it would be an explanation, why there are relatively few lesbian games, while lesbian content is far more common in other porn media.
As far as the story writing goes, I think there is a difference between lesbian content appealing to lesbians and lesbians and lesbian content appealing to straight men. A man can easily create lesbian content that is appealing to other men, but may still have a hard time creating lesbian content for lesbian women. A lot of the stuff men like in lesbian porn (lesbian seducing and dominating otherwise straight women, strap-ons etc.) may seem unrealistic or sexually not that pleasing for a lesbian female audience. When it comes to games, the degree of immersion is also different. A lesbian playing a lesbian game is typically a far more immersive player than a man playing a lesbian game and therefore more likely to appreciate more relatable characters. A woman playing a lesbian game will more likely think "what would I do in this situation?" while a man never ever will.
I'm not a developer, but as a writer, I tend to write lesbian relationships quite different from straight ones. When writing straight relationships I tend to focus on trust, mutual respect and common interests, while I tend to write lesbian relationships more based on irresistable sexual attraction, often including intrigue, mystery and dark secrets. I also write straight relationships usually as egalitarian, while I give lesbian ones a degree of hierarchy.

I think you're more likely to find a game that has a pure lesbo path as an option while also including the more typical MF paths as well and from a market size perspective I think that makes a lot more sense. I'm a guy and I certainly enjoy pure lesbo stuff, but I also prefer if there are some MF and especially MFF scenes as well.
I will have to agree that I've found a pure lesbo path to be fairly rare. Most of the games I've seen that include lesbo content also include unavoidable MF scenes (which is fine with me) but I can understand why some people would want an all girl path. You wouldn't have to remove all the guys from the game, just have an option for people who want pure lesbo to avoid the MF sex scenes and focus on the lesbo ones.
Babysitter is an example of a game I thought could have had an interesting pure lesbo path for Christine and Jessica. It already includes some good lesbo stuff for them but it's really not available as a primary path. It's an optional add on to either an MF path that focuses on MC or on one of his two male rivals.
