Thats why most adult games are a dime a dozen. Just look a games like
Where the Heart Is,
Being a Dik and
A.O.A. Academy, they do it right. As for a lot of players not being into it, there are likely thousands of games on this site that cater to that but few who do there own thing.
People will play what they want to play, I was just hoping for another gem.
So, here is the main issue with those exemple.
All of these game bring more than 2K at the very least and are managed by a team of people.
I work alone, I do my renders alone, I write my script alone, I do everything related to the game alone, aside from correcting typos and translations.
In an adult game if you want to attract people, you have to play the sex card, while it makes little sense human wise, it's needed to attract people, I'm not even hiding it the main reason people are already head to heels for the MC is purely for attraction reasons.
If I could release a game and be sure that people would follow it instantly, I'd take my time, but the plot needs to go somewhere, and it needs to move fast enough for it to feel entertaining.
Being a Dik, is literally the biggest possible game in the industry Right now, it's followed by a ton of people makes a ton of money and is even on Steam.
Dr.PinkCake is also a group of people, it's not just someone that makes render in his room one at a time, it's like a small company and you know stuff works well for them I love BaD too, I always keep an eye out for it.
But you can't expect from a guy in his 20's still living at his mother's with a decent PC for rendering at best to bring stuff that good on a regular basis.
That's the reason ToU isn't my last project, and that's the reason I have yet to go full time.
I have to build a community then I can move forward knowing that I have people having my back morally, financially helps too of course, but I still work out of my heart.
This is the reason you don't see a lot of gems, because gems are expensive to produce and need a lot of people to follow it.
When a 0.1 comes out and it's slooooow people won't be around for 0.2 as the game will have a sloooow reputation.
Don't get me wrong I'm not here like "whoooo gimme money so I can work my ass off proprely" If I wanted money I'd force myself to post regular updates lul.
I'm just saying that you can't compare LOTR, to Captain Alex.
There is a world between these two, and I'd say that I already do my own thing, there are well until someone comes with a proof, no games regarding my an elven conspiracy on any website !
