Quick update about Patreon
Added 2021-09-17 13:26:41 +0000 UTCTl:dr; I'm going back to college and will have to change the Patreon setup after the next release. It'll be roughly the same just instead of a large monthly flat membership, it's going to be a smaller "per update" patronage (all optional).
I'm starting college in September. Normally stuff like this wouldn't affect the game, I'm usually working on it on the weekends with a full-time job on the side. But as usual, schools throw a wrench into the mix, I'll probably have finals at some point and couple dozen small projects which will eat into my weekends. I'm not gonna lie this will probably slow down the development a bit but I'm going to try my best to keep up with everything.
Releases might be more sporadic than usual, my goal is to keep a release roughly every 2 weeks but this could change. To stop unnecessarily leeching off of everyone's support I'll change the Patreon from 5$ / month to 3$ / release with the added bonus of making the releases bigger.
What's going to change?
- There'll be a new tier of 3$ / release, which should be close to the original 5$ / month with 2-3 weeks between releases.
- When it takes longer to finish a new version you won't have to pay for the empty space between releases.
- I'll try to jam more content into releases to make up for the difference.
What's going to stay the same?
- The 3$ is only for releases! Art polls and any other content is free for Patrons.
- I'm still going to spend the budget mostly to commission art for the game.
- I'm not stopping development.
When?
I'm adding the new tier after the new release (sometime around this weekend).
How?
- I can't move anyone by myself, it'll require manual moving by you guys unfortunately.
- I also can't delete the current tier. So if anyone wants to keep things as they're can do so.
Bonus
Before the change to per release, I'll have the new version up some time this weekend hopefully. I'll post it before the change so for those who change tiers this will be a free release.
Art
This commission is taking some time sorry about that, the official deadline is the 29th of September so there should be something by then at the latest. If it's not coming through I'll find a new artist and recommission the art for Timmy + make a post to keep everyone updated.
I also closed the last poll and the winner is Leebe with Sphinx close second. I'm still looking for an artist, as usual, I'll make a post when the art is ready.
Sorry about the change, you know how it goes "Life is what happens to us while we are making other plans." Thanks to everyone again for the support!
