How much should I charge for a visual novel?
For those who are unaware, a visual novel is, in my definition, a genre of adventure games where game-play is usually from one screen-to-another, look it up if you’re unsure. Anyways, using Ren’py, I managed to create my own recently, it’s short, but it took a lot of work to create. As far as I know, there’s no specific rule in the Ren’py software which states that I can not sell what I create, as long as I credit them, since I planned on selling it at the nearest Anime convention. But I’m getting off-topic…
What I’m wondering, what would be a fair and reasonable price?
As of right now, I have yet to see what the cost of production looks like, but I don’t think I should be charging more than 15$.
So, I’m thinking 5-15$…? Would that be a reasonable price?
If you sell it as a CD – $13
If you plan on emailing it – $8
Anything over $15 is overpriced…
I, personally, would sell about $7 CD if it was short, because people would be more tempted to buy cheaper.
