Developing "adult" game - need advices

Hello everybody,

I've never talked in this forum but since it's a big project, I could really use some advices.

In short, I'd like to produce a 3D dating tickling game, centered around bdsm interaction like "kasumi rebirth" or "kinkshamed". The characters concept is under developement and i'll start modeling as soon as I'll have the time to work on it. However, I've never done something like this and starting scripting is a long and fastidious work. My problem is the step after finishing all the documents concept : chosing the game engine.

- which engine would be recommanded for high detailed characters ;
- Is it legal to use Unity or Unreal engine for adult content like this ? (don't want to be sued... );
- Is there any 3D game reference or any adult game producer that would help and guide me plz ?

I'm careful about legal and long term issues so if you've got hard proof, I'll be happy to see it. I'll share the first illustrations and render once I have a good foothold. Excited to hear from all of you and stay safe everybody !

P.S: no child abuse, rape or needless violence wanted in this project. Even if it's fantasy erotic , It's consentual domination and respect X( !!!

I hope this clarifies the issue for unity. I've never heard of Unreal, but I'll look through the fine print and see.

I didn't see any such restrictions for Unreal, but you probably need to ask before you start, since it's a licensed product. It is in their TOS that the license can be amended at any time.

Try looking for an open source game engine. That way there's no responsibility on your end.

I like the idea of open source engine. I'll dig in and be open to recommandations, ty tygoneagain15

I made some research and It's seem Godot is the best lead to start working ! Unless there is hidden infos, i'll start learning to use it.

That's probably your best bet. If you haven't looked into 3d rendering programs, I recommend you check out Blender. It's open source and it can animate as well. Some people complain about the steep learning curve, but honestly it's not harder to master than anything else out there, especially if you're starting fresh.

Feel free to PM me if you have questions along the way, and best of luck to you!

(L)GPL, BSD or simmillar license might be good point, but I am not sure if You could not still expand it (as a SW developer) to restrict particullar types of useage (such as producing kinky content).

This probably does not apply to Blender, but may apply to Goddot engine...

Hello everybody !

My project is under developement and i'm learning all the necessary technique for godot. To push my project to an other level, once the scenario and the gameplay prototype are done, I wish to open a patreon but the're a lot of decision that would impact the progression and the result: with the "patreon" idea, can I ask for help from others artists, especially for character sheet commissions ? If someone have done something like it, that would help a lot to share how to process. And if you have recommandations, I'm also openminded.

For the license of godot, they apparently only request the MIT license included. So it's still a good to go

Hello everybody !

After a long brainstorming process, I'm finally into something solid !

For this, I created a new gallery, Most of the game document are finished, found help to design my characters and the environment is almost finished !

Now is the crucial part : Looking for actress !
I know there is studio that could help but since I'm not expecting much money from it, I wish to look for actress/model willing to laught for it. Kind of scared to do a casting or a "model hunt", is anyone have good advices or good place to find and talk to a model ? (BTW I'm looking in France right now and maybe in Canada if I'm lucky in my personal life).

Stay safe everybody !


... A party is coming ~

Hey there,
maybe it would be worth looking into a subreddit like gone wild audio https://www.reddit.com/r/gonewildaudio/, I also saw some audios once on the tickling subreddit.
I think this would be fitting since it is allready audio, allready adult content, and allready mostly woman there, maybe you can get lucky and find someone who is willing to record things rather cheap or even for free.
