Well, it's a bit tricky with a new developer. I don't disagree that if a developer generates some income it's more likely he will go back and create more games. But the question is whether it'll be "good games".
I mean, with people like Shark, Pusooy, Leonizer, etc. people know the kind of games they make and they can make an informed decision whether to pay/donate for more. But we also see Chaotic consistently bringing out broken/buggy games and yet people still seem to be paying him. So paying for something doesn't garantuee quality, and paying for something you don't know much about is quite a risk.
And while this seems to have promise, it could also quite easily end up being on of those "talk 5 times, flirt 5 times, have sex!" kind of games. I sincerely hope that it doesn't, but from the information we have now it's hard to tell which type of game it'll be.
