Patron Rewards Updated

I've made a few changes to the rewards/pledge tiers section that I want to go over.

Mostly this is just clarity stuff as the formatting & wording was weird and inconsistent as some stuff had been left over from my pre-YoYo Patreon. 

1. I have removed the mention of "Special recognition in twitch streams (tba!)" as this was to do with things like the emblems for Tribal Tension, which now exists, is mentioned in the $1 tier and applies to every tier. I plan to do more stuff like this in my livestreams to recognize my supporters of various tiers but will add these things as and when I implement them.

2. Removed the "Ask questions for a monthly update video!" thing. I wasn't really getting any questions in (although it was hard to think of a way other than monthly posts to "ask" for questions.). I think this idea wasn't super well thought out. Videos take up a lot of time and I can get across most of the stuff I want to in update blog posts which I've been doing instead. I made mention of this a couple of updates back but this idea was still in my reward tier which is super misleading so I needed to get rid of it.

3. Cleaned up a bunch of formatting and wording just to make things a bit easier to read. I don't think there are any wording changes that amount to any sneaky substantial changes but if you've any questions about anything after reading your tier please do ask.

In addition I still have some more housework that needs doing around here:

1. I'm going to reinstate the tutorial suggestions spreadsheet. I wasn't 100% happy with how it worked before but I will rethink it. I'm currently being too passive about the suggestions reward which I think for some pledgers was probably a big deal and they're not sure "how" to suggest topics. So I'm going to bring this back as an obvious way to engage rather than rely on people specifically contacting me which I can understand doesn't really feel like you're getting what you pledged for.

2. I need to change the "Welcome page" to better explain the different rewards and also provide access to the aforementioned spreadsheet, and also to a list where people can easily insert their twitch usernames rather than just fishing for comments in the occasional post like I have been doing.

Eventually I'll learn how to do this Patreon thing well guys, I promise. <3

Thank you all very much for being here and supporting me and if you've any questions (or further suggestions on Patreon rewards?) please do ask. I'm trying to make a more conscious effort to specifically _check_ posts for comments as it appears Patreon is a bit surprisingly capricious with what it does and doesn't decide to actively notify me about.


Comments

hey man, thanks for all the hard work you put in to your videos. I started watching you some time ago on youtube and I'm starting to get the hang of this game maker stuff but I'm an advanced artist but just a beginner at coding so I find your videos really helpful and I'm on the 5$ supporter but I have no idea how to get to the source codes for the perfect platformer. I would really like to focus on the art and animation part and you give me enough knowledge to tweek the codes and stuff but id like to get the code strate from you if I can. thanks for all the help give to people like me.

Well done :)
