yes sadly after NTR got a big upswing some years before corona - the genre was getting very popular and a lot of devs popped up - corona and the recent inflation hit the indie games industry very hard I think. At the same time production time with indie games is way higher especially with high quality products. Mostly because it is only one dev working on a whole game and because there is a lot of expertise that has to be achieved.Just looked at releases and boy is august gonna be dry.
So to sum it up, recently a lot of devs quit - mostly due to corona and inflation - and production time is very high for the successful and remaining devs. I think thats why game releases and updates have gotten very sparse recently...
Maybe we get to see different times yet again, but atm it rather gets worse and worse....
