Hi everyone! I just wanted to know about our industry, like which engines are use by most people, I am an artist but also know a bit of Unreal Engine and wanted to know if there were programmers that use UE in 18+ industry.

Seems that most NSFW games use RPGM because it's the easiest and comes with preset stuff. And there is also a lot with Unity and Renpy.

And to answer your question yeah I've seen a couple of games that use UE, one that comes to mind is Under the Witch

Use rpgm VX if you like torturting your players, renpy if you foolish belive you are good at writing a story, unity if you want to take the most amount of cpu usage from any computer

Jokes aside you shouldn't bother conforming to any of those standards, and i dont think i've seen someone use unreal engine, porn games are literally begging for an ounce of creativity and a new engine meta would do fucking wonders, assuming someone actually wants to do anything with them

The answer is: depends

Most VNs nowadays use renpy. Some almost VN games use Unity, there's a fuckload of RPG Maker games, Unreal is also used often (though not many games get finished with it). Godot is trying to get traction, but isn't as common among adult games.

Japanese devs are the ones that most often use RPG Maker, Pixel Game Maker and other japanese focused tools.

I also have this thread offering some alternatives to the big names.
