Plans for 2026
It’s that time of the year where we are close to going on hiatus for the holiday period where it is time to take stock of the past and consider what our plans will be for the future and more specifically for 2026. With that in mind this post includes the following segments detailing our plans for each one.
Adult Graphic Novels
Video Game Releases
Board Game Plans
Figurine Developments
Adult Graphic Novels
The biggest news is our plans for our Adult Graphic Novels, over the past two years we have seen a steady drop in sales and engagement from our audience. We have still been successful but the drop concerned us so we have done some research, contacting random backers with questions as well as posting surveys. Combined with a variety of analysis we have come to the conclusion that two things are reducing our backers interest level.
Length of Time prior to Shipping.
The costs of the Books.
To address these issues we have taken a careful look at our books and have decided to try something new in 2026 that we think fixes both these issues, keeps our risk low and also improves our campaigns significantly. We will be posting another update going into more detail about this next month but simply put we will be making all reward tiers cheaper and creating the book before the campaign so backers get their rewards quicker and it costs backers less. There is a risk in this it reduces our profit margin, but we hope the change will bring backers back to support us increasing sales to cover the loss in profit margin.
Video Game Releases
Work continues on our latest adult video game: Burlesque. Since we published Swim Meet for Dharker Studios and the issues we met from that we have decided to make Burlesque’s base game non adult and cheaper and then include all the adult content as a separate optional DLC. This should make the review process in steam easier but also give players the option on how to play the game.
This procedure is how we will release all future games too, so that players can choose how they wish to play and to ensure the base game has enough content to stand alone even without the adult content if it needs to. Once Burlesque is completed we will start working on our next game idea. Similar to the graphic novels we have decided we wont seek funding until much more of the game is actually designed so that we can showcase it in more detail on the campaigns.
Board Game Plans
As mentioned in a recent news post we are actively developing two adult board games: Maid Cafe and Battle Beauties. It is likely that Battle Beauties will be created first as Maid Cafe still needs a lot of work before its ready to be manufactured. Similar to other physical reward priority campaigns it will have a high base funding goal in order to ensure a minimum order level is reached to prevent any chance of us losing money on its creation.
We will only create one board game per year, since board games tend to be very expensive and time consuming, so trying to create more than one in 2026 would probably be to difficult with our small team.
Figurine Developments
Currently we see no reason to change the way our Figurine developments are progressing. Whilst we have cancelled our plans for a physical figurines we do intend to continue making more digital STL figurines for those who like to print the figurines themselves using resin and 3D printers.
As long as we can keep covering our development costs with the funding we will keep making more figurines. In 2026 we are planning a new pair of Bunny Girls as well as a set of Negligee figurines too.
