WIP train #5 - The 2 Part Release (Patreon)
Content
Assuming a full release is roughly 20-25 mins in length, we’ll break down the big release into two 10-12 minute parts. The first part will be released with roughly half the content at roughly half the usual price. The second part will complete the full release. Once we have part two, we'll publish the release at full length and full price. At this point part one of the release will no longer be available. Those who have purchased part one separately will be able to buy the full release for half the price. Let us know in the comments below if you see a good reason to make both parts available individually though.
We are intending to produce more quickly and cutting production time in half like this could result in considerably shorter release cycles, meaning less waiting, which is something we’ve been asked about a lot.
Additionally, the releases will be more flexible. An interim round of feedback will allow for more fine-tuning, more responsive and stream-lined improvements and there’s going to be more momentum in general around releases that occur in months rather than years.
So why not just release an animation short of around 10 mins? Currently the survey and polls are indicating you like longer releases, which allows establishing more of the story, more in-depth character development and coherent content with continuity, which we’re on board with as well.
Let us know your thoughts in the comments below :)
