the dev can have at least twice as many Patreons as he has right now if he would just spend more time on his Patreon page.
I just don't get it. I mean he invested all those time and money on these awesome-looking renders and animations, story writing, coding, and more but don't bother to give some weekly updates about his progress.
I don't think that's it. I think it has to do with the frequency of updates. Like i only came across this game a couple of days ago when version ch3 final came out. before that i had no idea this existed or was even good. I played the dev's other game, which is also very good, but the amount of time between updates, just completely makes me forget about the game and the developer. And unless your game is on some next level shit, like stuff such as being a dik which blows any other game in its genre out of the water, rarely updating your games is going to make it fly relatively under the radar.
Also this game has no sex scenes so that's not helping his patreon. Also his other game suffers from kind of the same problem, no sex scenes with some of the "better" characters.
And more of a personal issue, the tags drugs and graphic violence can be quite off putting when looking for a adult game that interests me. And the "main image" of sonya, kind of makes the game look a bit dark and more leaning towards fantasy medieval setting, instead of a college modern theme which i personally prefer when it comes to porn visual novels.
