I think there needs to be a tag for early games with currently no sexual content present, so that will clear any confusion in the future.
- Thread starter DoubleProlix
- Start date
Haven't tried it yet but like the tags already.
I have some unease about multiple penetration.

Well the concept sounds entertaining
But so far its more like a demo
Maybe 3 min play time depending on ur reading speed
No sexual content as of yet but thats to be expected in this very early stage
Would wait a couple more updates to see how it goes since right now its still bare bones
Good luck DEV

I like where this is going! Might I suggest being less aggressive on the compression? The images are pretty blurry and it's a waste to spend all that time rendering just to blur it up with too heavy compression.
When zoomed to full screen, the difference is really noticeable. I used 90% quality there, it looks like you used 70%.

Glad you like where the game's headed! As far as blur goes, it's less "compression" than it is "denoiser." Even after an hour this is the quality I'm left with:
Post-denoiser:
The only compression I do is conversion to webp, and it doesn't change how the image looks.
The earlier renders (the "wake up hungover" and "go to work" scenes) used a less efficient denoiser and they look a good deal blurrier. I do have all the scenes saved, though, so when I have better hardware to work with I can quickly and easily re-do the worst looking renders.
Welcome back double prolix hope you will finish and complete this game and hope there will also be some gay content in this game cause I have played two of your incomplete games you know power corrupts and so curious for what have you planned in this game

It appears to be a combination of the Greek prefix thauma- meaning "wonder" or "miracle" (so here, possibly "magic" or "supernatural") and -rotica as a shortening of erotica (which is like it sounds, also from Greek orgininally). So it's probably something along the lines of "erotic supernatural force".

Short answer: I don't know.
Longer answer: I left Patreon because frankly I don't trust their network security enough to provide them with my driver's license, which is what they want from NSFW devs now. I'm working on the game but don't really have a crowdfunding option. No backers means no regularly scheduled backer releases, but to build interest I'll be releasing *something* here.
Maybe going episodic? I'll let you know when I figure it out.
Drivers license for just nsfw devs or anyone on patreon? Regardless thats BS patreon sucks. You can try alternatives, there are a few. Or why not just do crypto? Paypal donations?

NSFW patreon accounts. SFW don't need it. Payment processor demands (Mastercard and Paypal, I think) so every site that uses them either disallows NSFW or requires similar identification.
I'm looking at a few options.

Question for those of you who do spend money on games:
If I do go episodic (and I haven't settled on that yet) I'd be funding each episode with the sales from the episode before it. Say each episode is a self-contained story arc with a beginning, middle, and end - how much story would you expect from a solo-dev indie vn at different price points? $5, $10, $15 or $20...

I honestly think this would depend in part on the intent of the purchase. When I pay for indie development, it's not generally to buy the current version of the game, but rather to support the developer. There is, of course, interest in the game itself, but I'm more invested in helping what I see as a promising developer get their legs under them.
So, then, if I'm looking only at a game itself, for a $20 price point, I would expect something of at least a substantial size. A good comparison might be, for instance, the "Secrets of the Maw" DLC for Little Nightmares, "The Whistleblower" DLC for Outlast, or something similar. A $10–15 price would probably make me expect something more like the "Not a Hero" or "End of Zoe" DLCs for Resident Evil: Biohazard or the "Inheritance" DLC for Layers of Fear. The $5 level, I would think, would be more along the lines of one of the DLCs for Alien: Isolation (any of them, really) or maybe the "Justine" DLC for Amnesia: The Dark Descent.
These are just opinions, of course, and they are approximations, not exact measurements. If I were instead supporting a developer (and not just their game), it would be more based on the potential I see (or don't) in said creator. Higher potential amounts to a higher donation. That's a bit ironic, since you'd think those with lower potential might need a bigger push "to get over the finish line", as it were. But in reality, those with lower potential are they who tend to abandon their projects instead of seeing them through. If I have confidence that you are likely to complete a project, I'll be more likely to donate.
