itch.io

Tried Patreon and SubscribeStar, didn't work. But I did just "If you like what I do, feel free to donate, nothing in return".

There's still an issue because my jurisdiction determined that "donation" in exchange for content is a direct sale and that's a whole can of worms where I live. Steam makes it easy because they're the actual seller with a clear contract.

I don't want to promote it, but there's a certain website that has my games downloadable without my input - piracy. Feel free to look it up, it's already there and I can't do anything about it :P Flavors of Desires most likely will also end up pirated soon after release.

Sadly, no. Itch doesn't really allow NSFW sales ("technically" they do, but payment processors don't and I don't feel like risking account ban there). I won't even attempt to get on GOG, I probably won't be accepted, hearing that more known developers don't.

So unless Steam implements proper age checks to comply with local laws or there's a platform I can release on without tax and legal issues, there's no option for now.

Unfortunately, I can't release it anywhere else due to tax/legal reasons. I'm still looking for other marketplace that is trustworthy, has no legal/tax issues, and is welcoming to small adult content creators.

Sadly, things didn't change for the better.

Itch.io requires Adult content to be paid directly, and PayPal, Stripe, and other payment processors do not allow Adult content so I'd risk having account banned. Steam is still the best platform to avoid potential issues on my side.

What do you mean?

Unfortunately not. Itch now requests NSFW content to be sold directly... and that means instant ban on PayPal or Stripe :P Not to mention my local laws being in the way too.

Thanks!

Adding animations to past games would require a total remake. I switched to a different game engine. While "from the outside" looks fairly similar, the inner logic is drastically different.

Making a remake of old games is something I'm considering. Probably a bit later, they're not that old yet. Or I'd take games that did not have great reception and enhance them with animations, AI-powered art, expand on content, and so on.

Added (only for Windows)! Hope it works, might have issues on non-1080p displays.

Thanks! I always felt my writing for sex scenes was not great, so I started to consider an alternative. I happened to make this pony animation "modular", so I reused loops to build this minigame.

Initially, I wanted to make an interactive/reactive system, but turned out it's not that easy and constantly moving the mouse might not be exactly entertaining.

Thanks! I switched to using AI in my workflow, I'm not sure it's something you'd like.

Besides, this theme is not in my interests.

Have you ever tried making a game? Just do a better one yourself if it's so easy.

I'm not asking $20 for games on Steam but a symbolic $3. Most players don't complain about the content/price ratio.

As I wrote in the description, some systems/combinations of browser and system might not work. That's common in Web-based games. Try a different browser. I think I read somewhere that Apple's OS might have an issue with this engine.

I don't plan on adding anything to this one, it's just a proof-of-concept of the system I'm considering using in my full games on Steam (and yes, these would have more features, including cumming).

That's because you need to be logged to Steam and opt-in mature content to view Adult-Only games.

None. I don't intend to at the moment.

Unfortunately not possible.

Itch.io requires "direct payment" in the case of adult games and that's a trouble because of convoluted local tax laws in my country.

Thanks! I plan to release it sometime by the end of November or early December. The game is completed, just waiting for some wishlists.  The price will be most likely $3 or $4.

Yes. Steam does not allow unlicensed AI-generated content anymore so I'm not using it.

Backgrounds are purchased stock assets. Characters sprites and illustrations are hand-drawn. The titular Core background element was made in Blender 3D with slight render overpaint and composed with a stock background image.

Released a while ago: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2113000/Cats_in_Heat/

It's not in "endless update" development.

Please try Firefox, should work on that browser.

The engine version I used for this build does not support certain browsers/environments. Please try Firefox.

Unfortunately I am aware of this issue. I'm in touch with my local tax lawyer and I was advised not to put my games on other storefronts because of different legal basis and payout systems - Steam pays each month, itch.io whenever I ask, which kinda messes up accounting.

But as with everything, things might change, so I might be releasing games on itch.io too, in the future. Or Steam changes their system to comply with German laws (or maybe German laws will change).

Currently I don't have free games on Steam and I don't have plans for any in the near future.

Demo by definition is a free sample, also for marketing purposes. But yeah, there's no point in them, my latest game didn't have one and sold unimaginably well.

Oh, come on. Most of my games are $3, and this one is even $2, often on promotion. Nobody is forcing anyone to buy anything. I'd understand complaint about $60, but $2? It's literally price of a snack or coffee.

This is just demo version, Steam has full version with all scenes. The game is short and cheap so I don't think demo is necessary on Steam.

Next game (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2194510/Retired_Hero_Gets_Slaves/ ) is bigger with more story and characters.

Bigger games need bigger sales for more work. And that seems a little problematic. I made slightly bigger games earlier and sales were disappointing for the amount of effort. I'm making bite-sized games, if some gets more attention, I might make another one similar, just like Lustful Ponies series. Better this way than to spend a year on a game nobody will care about.

At the moment there are no plans for other platforms.

Not at the moment, but I might sometime in the future.

Thanks! I tried a bit different approach with this one, glad to know it might have been a good decision :)

Not true. All sex scenes are full, explicit and uncensored. Some time ago Steam started to accept Adult-Only rated games. You have to opt-in in your profile settings to see those games. Everything is clearly visible in screenshots on Steam page.

You just might want to have a second, alternative Steam account so the game is not visible to your friends on profile ;)

Not likely, I don't have source files anymore, it was just a test project.

No, and most probably never will.

Google Play does not allow NSFW games. I don't see many people interested to try selling it outside.

Please try Firefox browser or downloadable demo.

Try Firefox, should work.

Unfortunately, there's no other way at the moment.

Unfortunately, there's no other way at the moment.

I plan for early-middle July, 11-15th probably. Price will be $1.99, it's much smaller game than my previous ones.

Hi! Unfortunately, because of nature of the game and laws around it, it's not available for sale in some countries.

What you can do - if you have a friend in a country where it's available for purchase ask them to buy it as a Steam Gift for you. I heard it works.

I'm aware of this issue. Unfortunately, at the moment, I can only suggest getting a friend from a country where the game is available and have them purchase it as a gift for you. I heard it works that way.

Sadly, selling outside of Steam causes many tax and legal complications where I live.

Yes, I know. Please try on Firefox or downloadable version.
