JB2A - Kiri Release v0.4.1 (Patreon)

"Kiri" is just a way for us to track our release ! Module version v0.4.1 for FoundryVTT

Dear patrons !

This release should really be named : "The trials and tribulations of learning a new workflow" 😂
Motivated, tired, excited, frustrated, happy, anxious, overjoyed... These are only a few of the emotions and states of being we went through while learning Unreal Engine.
Any new checkbox ticked, slider moved, particle system created opens a new world of knowledge to acquire in order to master it.
And this is only slightly exaggerated. The learning curve is really steep. And here we were, thinking Blender was complex ! 🤯
We are still very excited at the possibilities and the time it will save us potentially, compared to making everything in After Effects.
No need to wait five minutes everytime we change a value anymore, it's in real time !
And we have it set up so we can both work on the same project at the same time ! 😎
Anyways, we're quite happy about Sacred Flame, our first spell fully made in Unreal Engine ! We hope you'll like it too.
Thank you so much for your continued support. ❤️

IMPORTANT :
We'll try our best to make a second release for tomorrow with another batch of patron requests and whatever little generic effects we have time to include.
We are consciously taking advantage of the 'Per release' system and you might think it's a 'money-grabbing' tactic, which is not really true.
You are in control of how much you're comfortable giving us per month with the possibility of setting a maximum pledge.
We see your contribution as a way for you to support us continuing our venture, not strictly a way to 'unlock' access to our assets.
You are charged only when and if we make a release but you will never pay more per month than the maximum pledge you have determined and you will still be able to download the second release (and the third, if we ever manage to get there 😅).
We hope this clears things up. If you have more questions about this, we'll be happy to answer them here or on our Discord server !
And, of course, if you weren't aware of this and forgot to set a maximum, meaning you ended up paying more than what you were comfortable with or expected to, send us a message and we'll send you a refund.

Oh, and they've picked Kobold Fight Club back up too ! 😮
