Plenty do exactly that. Prob less than 1 in a 1000 devs make their AVN their day job, they either already have one that odds are good pays far more money than an AVN ever would or are already retired with a good pension that would get complicated with extra income depending on the situation (ie social security in US will get docked if you make money from somewhere else, so you would gain nearly nothing anyway). For most it's a hobby, not a reliable livelihood. How many do you know of actually make money with their hobby? For most that's just something fun to do, and way more often than not is a financial expense rather than an income. My uncle collects, reloads and shoots guns for fun. He has a decent 3 BR house and a few acres with it but his gun collection he's prob spent even more money on that than everything else he owns put together. Only way to monetize that would be make a YT channel showing off his bragging rights, and even then it would prob still be a net loss even with a million subs and somehow no one using Adblock. As far as monetizing AVNs I will not be surprised in the next few years if Visa and MC both simply start banning all porn like they have incest and just about anything else that makes porn worth fapping to. You can bet pretty much every platform like Patreon and even SS that doesn't use crytpo will be fine with that like the boot lickers they are. Even then I doubt that will be the end of AVNs (or porn). Most will either move to crypto with the rest of the porn industry or simply do it for fun rather than even try to monetize it (as they should anyway, I have 0 interest in supporting devs with no spine or artistic integrity anyway that make that almighty $ the priority and I doubt I'm the only one).
It is explained in the game. It would be a huge spoiler to explain, so just play it, it is worth it.
so if you don't mind - i'd be happy if you could send my regards, too - really appreciate it!Yes... the menu... I... uhm... DEFINITELY was the one who created it
Actually, I was blessed to have an early 'Unnamed' tester who provided valuable feedback AND got bored enough to create the menu for me. I think he was just really sick of seeing the default renpy junkI'll pass along your comment though
I would say otherwise because many people try to make it their job, but what percentage of those who succeed.... There's no statistics.
The intent was to give me something to point at if anyone said but you showed the wife in the banner pic! She is technically there but IF you paid attention...
First post in the Dev thread was on July 6th but by that time I had already spent a good chunk of time learning DAZ before that. I definitely don't expect Episode 2 to take as long, since I'm already well into creating it. I have all of the scenes planned out, most of them have a rough draft script and I'm creating renders for the first scene and the last two scenes.
true, but don't reduce it to just that, please.
Any specific issues or just a busy day?true, but don't reduce it to just that, please.
so, after finally managing to actually start the game... let me tell you a big: "Thank you!"
i am actually considering doing a proper review - least i could do to honor your work.
This is a lot bigger than many first releases I've seen. Like 3-5x so. If I had to guess assuming he has a day job and mostly doing everything himself maybe 12-18 months? So don't expect Ch2 until maybe xmas 2025, which I hope I'm wrong but it's free so can't complain, even though I'm curious what boogeyman Lily saw (hopefully it's his sis that kinda ghosted the MC years ago, but prob not). For reference Deaufosse/Malignant is in the same situation. He does it for free, but don't expect more than annual updates.
