to be fair, the last release is still the demo and that was half a year ago.
that's a red flag for lots of people.
but i also like the plot of this game.
edit:
also most people support usually with patreon.
and this dev had some problems with patreon.
patreon supporters usually make the biggest chunk.
Yeah, the demo was great, but the Patreon getting killed and having to move to Subscribestar? That's like getting your leg cut off for an AVN creator.
Dev is relatively new, so maybe there's a chance to build a subscriber base over time on Subscribestar. Doubt it'll ever be as big as Patreon, but if the dev wants to continue including darker elements, then sticking to Subscribestar makes sense.
Subscribestar seems more focused on niche, darker content that wouldn't be allowed on Patreon. Logical, given that Patreon has more strict rules around content.
I just checked Subscribestar and games tagged as AVN. The biggest one showing sub count is the dev making Copycat, a subpar game in comparison but has a gore NTR niche, with around ~400 subs, making about $2000 a month or so.
I know this game has blackmail and rape tag elements, but if the player didn't pick those choices, the content is mostly a conventional AVN.
But I wouldn't be surprised if the dev cans this project and starts over with a new one under a new Patreon account. Lot of devs have done this.
