MindWare Weekly Content Calendar (Patreon)
Content
To keep turning your financial and moral support into something you can enjoy at a steady rate, it's best for me to set a content calendar. That way, you'll know exactly what's coming and when, and you can yell at me if I don't deliver. More importantly, the content calendar will provide a plan for me to follow, helping me use my time productively.
I've already created a content calendar for my own use in the past, but since I've kept it private, I haven't been motivated enough to stick with it. So, it's time to make it public:
Monday: Devlog / Concept Art / Poll
I will describe my plans for the week, post an image of something I'm working on, or ask you for your opinion.
Tuesday: Documentation Day / Walkthrough Updates
Tuesdays will be dedicated to updating my documentation and walkthroughs. Some weeks, these documentation updates will result in gamedev tutorials published on my website, where I'll share what I've learned with others. The same tutorials will also preserve the knowledge for my own use.
Wednesday: ---
Focused release day preparation.
Thursday: MINDWARE RELEASE DAY
There will be a supporter-only release every week, but every second release will be dedicated to bug fixes. Public releases will happen +- on a monthly basis.
I hope that the weekly release schedule will keep me highly motivated, while the longer breaks between public (major) releases will give me more time to work on the game since they take me a lot of effort to prepare and announce.
Friday: Discord & Chill
I usually keep Discord notifications on mute, but I won't on Fridays. This will allow me to promptly react to your post-release feedback and generally interact with you more, including catching up on long-delayed 1-on-1 chats.
