Changes and Previews (Patreon)

Hello, sorry for the silence, it was exam period so I had to slow down for a bit. Now...

・Start here

The pictures are of some of the updates I was working on. I also added the posts I deleted the other month, and the new banner image in full, since I can't show it in full on the page's banner.

Now, these are a few of what I'm making. The banner girl is from a future version...

Yeah. To say it briefly: I can't stop starting multiple things at once. It wasn't like this before, so I think there's something wrong with my focus.

The reasons are many and I could ramble a lot, so instead I'll just tell you the changes I decided to make. 

・Overall

Instead of worrying about what I should do and end up starting 20 different things at once over and over again, I'll ask you directly what to focus on.

What I'm trying to achieve with this is to speed up the updates while also motivating myself more. 

So, while the Main progression is being prepared on the side, I can do Early Versions that are chosen by votes. This way, going back to the more focused but more frequent updates from the start is achievable.

Tiers are now properly used too. And the first objective that I had set back when Patreon still had them about giving more choice to the Patrons is in effect too. I get less stress, the workflow becomes better, my budget limitations shrink. All the better.

I probably didn't explain it that well, but you'll see it in action going forward.

・Changes to Tiers

Transfer Student / renamed to Supporter: nothing really changes. But Test/Early/Focused versions before the Main Versions are now reserved for the other tiers, as is decisional power for Next Update Polls, no changes to other Polls.

Adoring Student / renamed to Nurse: Can vote to decide on the Early/Focused Updates, and gets to play them ofc.

Enthusiastic Student / renamed to Overseer: Can vote to decide on the Early/Focused Updates, and their vote is doubled. Can get to playtest every version before others.

・Previews

The way I preview updates will be 1-2 pics every 7-10 days instead, or 1 a week, idk, but it's better if I don't over-preview and decide to pull a previewed thing out last minute, since it happened a few times by now. I usually get that posts should be more frequent also, so this should work both ways.

・Decisional Polls and Next Update

The polls will contain all the single update subjects I started, and will be done after every update. I will count the votes and the winning choice will be the next update.

The first one I'll post tomorrow, and will remain up until 0.097 is posted around the end of the month.

So the early versions will start with what's decided on this poll. So after Main Version 0.097, I will put something after the version number like I did with P1-2-3, maybe I'll just put P again, probably.

・To End

So, I guess all there's left to do is to... do.

I as always likely did not explain explain everything to the best, so for any question or clarification just comment or message or DM and I'll answer once I can.

Thank you. See you soon.
