New Patreon Tiers (IMPORTANT)

Hello Everyone!

If you have not noticed we have changed our Patreon Layout and reward tiers. Several of the tiers were not well defined and we felt that the value of a few Patreon tiers did not reflect the effort and work that would go into them. Now, we are much more comfortable with these rewards and we feel that they can be much better utilized by our small team. The rest of the post, however will be used to clarify some changes that were made.

$2, $5, $10 tiers - Nothing has changed. These rewards are the exact same as they have always been with the exception that the $10 tiers now name any RANDOM character, not just enemies.

$20 tier - Previously, we allowed patrons at this tier to create an NPC to challenge enemies. This, however, was purposely left vague to allow for more patron creativity and freedom. However, due to the popularity of this tier we have elected to focus this to allow patrons to create a pokemon for our players to encounter.  Any Patron who pledged before July 1st will still have their original requests honored.  More details about the creation of this Patron Pokemon is on that tier.  

$35 tier - This tier has been redesigned to reflect the amount of work and time dedication it takes to bring this tier into reality. Originally, this patreon tier allowed for a patron to insert any sort of character into the series complete with a backstory, personality, and unique artwork. Unfortunately, this tier was more more popular than we expected and it created too much stress for our GM and our artists. 

Now, on this tier, patrons may submit a request and we will create a sprite of your description. This overworld sprite will then be a background character within Utopus and follow the party around.

However, Any Patron who pledged before July 1st will still have their original requests honored. Thank you to everyone who participated in this. We are ever grateful

$50 tier - If you have a show or product you would like shouted out once per month, this is the one for you! This tier allows for an in-character shoutout of your choice at the end credits to one of our videos once per month. This reward is re-occuring however, re-recordings or new dialogue may result in additional costs depending on the requested Actor/Character

$65 tier - Once per month, we will arrange a one hour call in discord. This chat will include GM Stuart and 1 random Cast/Staff member. We will use this hour to discuss a previously voted upon topic and will attempt to answer any and all questions to the best of our expertise and abilities.

$80 tier - This tier is the official replacement of the previous Space Warrior Tier. It allows you to create an NPC for Utopus that will have a speaking role and likely story significance. We have reduced the number of patrons to this tier to a much more manageable level.

$100 tier - This tier was a joke but we will completely honor it. If your character wants the honor of getting their butt kicked by our hero Lavi, you may sign up for this. You still get artwork of your character if you remain pledged for a minimum of 3 months.

Thank you very much for your continued support. Most of our higher dollar patrons were made aware of these changes within our discord chat. If you have any comments or concerns feel free to message me or comment below. Thank you all again! We look forward to bringing you more content! :D
