Some say there's no money in porn. But furry porn? That's a different story.

Furotica is largely a no-go for industry leaders Kickstarter and Indiegogo. But it's become a lifeline for Ben Tao, Eric Lai, and Barry C, whose adult crowdfunding site Offbeatr (covered in August) lists five successful projects to date — all furry. [tip: Ripner Cabbit/EarthFurst]

So how can you raise $4000 (or $40,000) for your dream project? We asked those who've done it, while taking a closer look at this new funding platform and talking to its CEO.

The Furoticon team is giving away a free pack of cards (NSFW) until December 31, or while supplies last, to those 18 or older in the USA.

Furoticon is an adult furry card game for two or more players in which you "play as a well-renowned Owner [...] dueling against one or more Owners for dominance over your opponents' harems".

Furoticon was first released at Anthrocon 2009. Since then, the game has scheduled events at many furry conventions.
