This is inviable, it would make most games die for lack of support. Early acess as main source of support would only work if those indie developers were able to aquire the support of tens of thousands of people. By definition this is very, very hard to achieve.This is baffling to me. Why would you fist pay 20$ for something and then give it free for leechesWhat i would like to see if it's possible on patreon that devs would implement early accesses tier that you would pay 40-60$ one time and get accesses to game for it whole development and early releases. Just like you do with early accesses games on steam. Then you could have those tiers like 2, 4, 8$ subs.
Most porn games survive with the support of a few hundred patrons and their developers usually need to treat it as a hobby or side job because that is not enough for them to actually live from it.
If your idea were to be implemented instead of thousands of porn games here we would have a lot less.
That is why it's important what Patreon and Subscribestar do: giving smaller developers a plataform to showcase their projets so that the few hundreds of people who care about said project can help.
