only if you strike it lucky. the market is over saturated but if you find the fetish of the moment (like horse girls is for this month) you'll get the coin

not for whatever's left of your soul

How is the market over saturated? In my experience it's saturated with horrible DAZ3d VN slop games that developers can churn out in a week. But, maybe that's just my ignorance of possible good games I don't know about.

AI gen can stay on character now for simple poses (good example of this in an otherwise uber grindy niche game is stripclub wars 2). Once gen can do complex sex scenes too, the cost of making a game will drop massively. That would be the point in time to launch a new patreon begging game since it will hugely reduce the cost of adding content. Of course you'll still need some Unity or Twine/Sugarcube experience to tie it all together.

Plenty of devs have tried using higher quality content and it's still hit or miss getting patreon traction.

>>105901720 (OP)
no, too much work compared to what you will get from it. 2d is better, easier and faster, just look at Summertime Saga, this guy has over 30k paying customers

Why did you post this picture of the woman I loved the most in my 20s

Could you link some examples? I'm legitimately curious.

99% of porn games look like shit. For 3D games it's closer to 99.9%. But I will admit that I recently discovered a Patreon funded early access roguelike called Hard Stuck (made by Floppystack) and it ruined my mind and penis for several days and made me wish I had gotten into game dev back when I hard the time. The guy makes around $3500 a month off Patreon so I'd say it's lucrative enough for a hobby.

Every single 3d porn game I've seen has ugly ass women that I honestly find disgusting.
So if you're able to make a 3d game where chicks look cute, you might get big bank from lonely losers.

Thank you for your input, Captain Obvious.

who hurt you?

I did, I stroked too hard. But it's healing, thanks for asking.

A couple of years ago i would say it could be very lucrative, i saw people making a decent amount of money with low effort python visual novels. Nowadays the market has become saturated.
But if you find a somewhat popular niche without too many competition you should be able to make a reasonable amount of money. Just make sure to not waste too much time doing a very complex game, you are making games for coomer their standards are low and all they want to do is goon. If you want you can even develop a framework/template to be able to make multiple games quickly with different niches, and see what works out.

Be careful with patreon i've seen them ban adult game developers before.

It's likely ridiculously easy nowadays to make 3D porn games. There's probably a few AI models out there you could use to do most of the heavy lifting. Late last year, I was checking out which stories within 30 days of being published on Literotica were attracting the most views. I have a hunch the more you risk getting v&'d the more money you'd make. Not saying you should do this of course.

>>105901720 (OP)
It CAN be lucrative if you make the game itself interesting instead of another "dating simulator". Go make something like Morrowind with guns, and be able to fuck and enslave the enemies, and date the friendly NPCs. Then you'll be unique and people can't call your shit "oversaturated". DO NOT USE PRE-RENDERED SCENES! Give us good character customization and give good cum physics.

>>105901762
Bullshit. There ARE NO 3D games. Go on F95zone. Most of the 3D games are extremely incomplete or "moderately" incomplete. There's a few good complete games but they're genuinely rare.

Another 3DCG retard as opposed to 3D RENDERED (REAL TIME RENDERING).

>>105902138
Fuck you and your AI slop! I deliberately avoid AICG in games!

Unironically you'll probably make more money making really good text-based erotic games, since there aren't that many, and the ones that do exist have very large cult followings
