1) Funded on Kickstarter (famously, the Muv-Luv localization collected over a million dollars), and so often includes stretch goals like Linux and macOS. Visual novels are rarely so complicated that a company can say "We never predicted how difficult supporting Linux and macOS would be after all so we can't do it!"
2) Re-engineered by the company on another engine that works better on non Japanese computers anyway, and Ren'Py is often the choice of engine to use for that, so they get Linux for free
3) Banned on Steam, so they need to seek out alternative stores
4) Shunned and pirated by players in very high numbers thus DRM has never been an effective deterrent, so why bother? Over 10 years ago, almost every VN localization company abandoned DRM. Shiravune thinks they can get away with DRM because Japanese customers are used to it, but it remains to be seen what level of success they achieve.
It all coalesces into a great situation for us Linux players who buy visual novels. Please buy the visual novel if you can. They're doing everything right, in my opinion.
Well, aside from paying their translators well and taking their time to produce a great translation. I think JAST is the one exception on that front.
I did enjoy Hunie Pop (match-3) and Highway Blossoms (kinetic story), but both could easily stand on their own without any adult content. As far as I remember it is actually optional in both.
Then there's games like Neptunia series, some with more fan service than others. Although I am not sure I would qualify them as adult games specifically.
So when it comes to adult content, I feel that video games are just not the best media for it.

What a summary for the game on Steam. Steamy. lol

That's pretty much my hard limit. I don't see why you would want to go more adult than an ESRB M, and I never will.

Come to think of it, I think Do You Like Horny Bunnies? was my first exposure to adult visual novels back in high school. Thanks Adam Sessler and Extended Play/TechTV. I obtained a copy after that episode. XD
(For anyone wondering: No, Do You Like Horny Bunnies? isn't a furry game. 👀)
I can't be the only person here with parents that gave fuck all about game ratings when they were a kid.
