Patreon Name Change / General Progress Update (Patreon)
Content
Name Change
As you may or may not have noticed, I have changed the name of the Patreon from myself to the company name to pave the way for the future. There are some planned changes to the Patreon tiers once we release Shards and Taps and I will give you all a heads up later in the month once we get close to that point.
Of note, there will only be good things for current Patreons continuing their support for us as we grow and start to see some positive cashflow coming back into the company after this long journey to V1.0 of Shards!
Taps Update
So I'm right in the belly of the beast at the moment with the first dungeon at around 95% complete. I am currently amidst an entire interface overhaul that's going well. A sneak peak?
It's certainly a lot brighter, that's for sure!
Shards Update
The new build continues to work through the QA issues and there is a new build on the Google Drive (usual spot).
Of note, there are just minor bug fixes in it so if you have 0.9.9.7 already, there is probably no reason to grab it unless you are heavily providing feedback on the builds. At this point, I think most people are just playing early and we have 95% of the issues raised already.
Release notes were missing from 0.9.9.7 but a lot of little fixes were in place for this release. Up until V1.0, we're hoping you'll stop "seeing" the fixes as they become more minor niggles!
General Update
October will be the last month that new Patreons at Beta Support Tier will get access to Shards of Eradine Early Access builds.
If you are currently supporting at this level, your Shards of Eradine key will continue working for future releases but all new releases after V1.0 will be counted as Alpha releases as they will be fewer and further apart and we start working towards the plans for the extended features.
Frea and Panda Plushies Available Next Week!
After some major headaches of them landing on the wrong side of the UK and all the pains that this caused, we have 4 boxes of plushies on their way to this Little Rock near the Little Island and should be landing tomorrow or Friday depending on the boats! This first run is very, very limited numbers so please PM if you would like either or both reserving else they will be first come first served via the shop very early next week!
After holding the boxes hostage, we ended up having to get them to my fathers house, then I had to forward ship again. He had a quick nosey in the boxes, hence the above pictures not being the most artistic!
Anyway, lots to do so back to the grind! :)
