They seem to have Sakura bundle at least once a year, so they sell probably well enough for the target audience. I'm just glad that they keep them quarantined in their own bundle.

Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current President of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality.

One man's "scraping the barrel" is another's "time to start drilling" because someone will inevitably make a worse tiddygame.

That is a lot of dumpster anime titty games. I'm amazed a company stayed solvent enough to actually put that many out before folding.

No matter what else you might think of those games, the royalties probably provide a pretty decent cash flow.

Wait do they actually hire creators? I thought the company putting out the "sakura" games was just relicensing chinese ones and running all the text through google translate.
Or am I thinking of a different publisher with dozens of anime tiddy games on steam? How many of those are there anyways?

I think the Sakura games are original. For whatever that word actually means in this situation.

But sure, there are indeed several companies with similar business models to what you're describing.

You're thinking of the company SakuraGame, not the Sakura games, which are made by Winged Cloud and unrelated to SakuraGame.

The Sakura bundle is the best if you want to send a buddy a bunch of unlabled codes and they activate all of them then all of a sudden their Steam recommended algorithm trashes their front page.

Is that $250 just salary for the VA, because I can't imagine getting studio time for that unless your recording setup is a USB mic and a closet with cardboard taped to the walls.

Most of us VO freelancers have created our own in-home studios to record. Renting studio time somewhere would completely destroy any profit to be made from a gig.

I wonder if it's just a bad machine translation or if the creator expects playing the game to give you a moderate drinking problem.

There was some Sonic fangame that flat-out installed malware into your computer if you cheated, IIRC, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was a way to pull it off.
