Future Tier Adjustments (Patreon)
Content
As some of you, or rather most might have noticed, the pre release of 0.8.0.0 was out rather quick. There is a reason for this. Game development goes rather fluid now, since all base mechanics are in place, so it's basically down to writing more content, and it's pretty much a save bet that Sashka is 95% done with the main storyline, all the way back to stage 5 (side content not included). 95 of the time is currently ordering more game assets, where the game is, as it stand now, at a limit.
The games crew consists of:
- 3 pixel artists, one for items, 2 for portraits
- One character designer/scene artist
- One additional artist for scenes
- One Wiki Editor
- One Sashka, who's word output should be calculated in Megawords/hour.
To get updates out faster, we would need more artists, which are currently the bottleneck, which would either mean way more people need to support this game (and I'm still pretty stunned that we reached over 1000 supporters at this point, not counting the number of people who used to support the game) or advance the Tiers the game currently has.
These would be the updated Tiers as Sashka and I discussed:
"I Just want to play the game" (3$ per month)
- The pre release download
- A discord role to see the exclusive Patreon Channels
"Be a Patreon" (5$ per month)
- The pre release download
- A discord role to see the exclusive Patreon Channels
- Ability to vote on any poll (counts as 1 vote)
"Full of Suprises" (10$ per month)
- The pre release download
- A discord role to see the exclusive Patreon Channels
- Ability to vote on any poll (counts as 3 votes)
- Suggest new Items/Clothes/Features in the Inquery Threads
"Outsized influence" (25$ per month)
- The pre release download
- A discord role to see the exclusive Patreon Channels
- Ability to vote on any poll (counts as 10 votes)
- Suggest new Items/Clothes/Features in the Inquiry Threads
- One of you will be drawn per month to add a scene you'd like to the game
"Fashion Designer" (50$ per month / limited numbers)
- The pre release download
- A discord role to see the exclusive Patreon Channels
- Ability to vote on any poll (counts as 10 votes)
- Your vote would count more
- Suggest new Items/Clothes/Features in the Inquiry Threads
- Suggest get one new item of your own choosing per month (this could be combined with an annual membership for two item sets or so, math is hard, I need to calculate stuff....).
Also there might be a chance to get the original "Ex girlfriend" Tier back, but it would be at a much higher cost, since you need character artwork, pixelated character artwork, a few scenes, maybe some items, so if this does happen we can talk about these later.
Also, the original tiers will remain, but will be unpublished and replaced by their new counterparts. Which means if you choose to stay on your original tier, no problem!
Also I can most of you hear moan right now (and not the excited kind of moan.... well maybe.... who knows), so here's a poll for you, to give your input.
