[Blog] Quick Update
Added 2022-06-13 18:20:44 +0000 UTCEarlier this month, I opened off-stream commissions during a limited time - just to test it out. I raised the minimum price to $200, so I was earning approx. 60% more.
I didn't necessarily get more offers than I might've during a stream, but I did ultimately have to take less because of the price. I could probably take a few more, but I'd like to focus on some other work right now. That said, I should probably do this more often.
What's Next?
My primary focus for the rest of the month will be on comic & game development, I think.
I haven't opened GameMaker for a few weeks... While it's good to take a break (since I was feeling a bit discouraged), I need to make sure I'm consistently working as to not break my momentum. Thankfully, I commented my code well enough that being away hasn't caused me to forget anything. A few bugs have popped up, but I'll continue working on the engine and deal with bugs later.
Anyway, don't forget to eat & sleep.
Comments
I always tried to keep my prices affordable, but I had to charge more because off-stream commissions take longer. That's really all there is to it.
