Honestly, it feels like every NSFW dev is running into the same wall right now. Patreon + itch demo seems to be the most workable combo, but it’s definitely not ideal. Nutaku works if you get accepted, and some devs use Gumroad or SubscribeStar as alternatives too. Would be great if we had a more straightforward platform for this.
Viewing post in [Devs] Other platform to sell NSFW?
Gumroad isn’t really a game storefront like itch.io. It’s more of a digital product platform where you can upload files (like your game build) and sell them directly to people. Basically, you create a product page, set a price (or even pay-what-you-want), upload your game file, and share the link with your audience. Most NSFW devs use it together with Patreon, SubscribeStar, or Discord to give buyers access to updates and builds. It’s simple, but you have to bring your own traffic since Gumroad doesn’t have a game discovery section like itch.io or Steam.
Gumroad stopped allowing sexually explicit content a year and a half ago.
