🚨 HEALTH PROBLEMS AND THE FUTURE OF MY PATREON 🚨

Hello everyone, hope you're all well 🤗

Before I start, I'd like to thank all the people who have supported me for so many months now. It's largely thanks to you that this Patreon is still active as I write.

Since I stopped Bounty Hunter, my Patreon stats have gone down. Which is normal, because it was the main reason why people followed me, along with Roguelike Hero. The main reason I decided to stop Bounty Hunter was that the series was poorly structured at the outset and not sufficiently thought through, which meant I had to do a lot of work to try and pick up the pieces as I went along.

In view of the statistics and the latest survey, I decided to launch a concept that I'd had in reserve for a long time, but wasn't sure whether to propose. I'd like to present this new project to you below and ask for your feedback. What's more, it's still in development, so a lot of things are subject to change.

==== 🚨 IMPORTANT NOTE 🚨 ====

Before you read on, I'd like to tell you a little something.

I'm currently forced to rest by doctors' order. A few days ago I felt a pain in my left leg, I obviously ignored my body's warnings... 2 days later, the whole left side of my body went numb for a long time. Since then I've been extremely tired and tend to have palpitations and heart pains. I also often have numbness and no strength left in the lower body.

I'm telling you this because the next videos and projects may take much longer than expected to come out. This month's videos and next month's first compilation are already finished, but I haven't yet started on the EVE compilation because of my health problem.

I manage several projects simultaneously to guarantee myself a more stable income in normal times, but I think I've pulled the machine a little too hard 😓

Anyway, I'll keep you posted on Discord and try to work quietly on the videos and the next concept. Below you'll find information about the new project, so don't hesitate to give me your opinions and ideas.

A huge thank you to my supporters. Also, I'd like to tell you not to take my Patreon just to support me because of my health problems. Subscribe to this Patreon only if you can afford it and enjoy my content. Thank you <3

===================================

1 - BACK TO THE SOURCES (INSPIRED OF BOUNTY HUNTER & ROGUELIKE HERO)

🚨 The concept is not yet fully developed. 🚨

✦ Roguelike System with several routes

After each event, you'll have several cards to choose from, and depending on what you choose, you'll take a certain route.

Here are the possible routes for the moment:

• Combat : At the end of the fight, you'll receive a random bonus and a random amount of gold.
  

• Treasure : If you launch a Treasure Event, you have a chance of finding a chest with a large quantity of gold or a booby-trapped chest.
  

• Event : This choice is a bit special. You'll have several possible choices, but some will only be unlocked if you meet certain conditions, such as having a certain item in your inventory or other... You'll always have the chance to get bonuses or debuffs in this kind of event, and there may even be battles.
  

• Shop : A store where you can buy certain items that give you the right to : Lower the Handy's height during a stage, pause the video for a moment, ect... Shops are unique depending on where you are. In other words, each shop is different and offers unique items.

• Checkpoints : For a certain amount of gold, you can activate a checkpoint, allowing you to start again from there if you lose. Beware, there may be fighting at this kind of location to validate the checkpoint. A checkpoint is compulsory at the end of the floor (after the final boss).

• Heal / Purge : You can remove debuffs in exchange for golds. Can be used several times if you have enough gold.

• Quest : You'll be able to take on side quests that can give you powerful bonuses or rare items to unlock certain things. These can be short or long quests.

• Final Boss : At the end of the episode, you must face a boss fight. This may involve several characters, so be careful. If you win, you can move on to the next floor, keeping all your bonuses and golds.
  

✦ Game Over

If you come, you lose everything and have to start again from episode 1 (or last checkpoint).

✦ Random Buffs and Debuffs

You'll be able to obtain buffs and debuffs directly in the video, so you won't have to change videos in the middle of your run. New buffs and debuffs will be added or changed in future episodes, increasing diversity.

✦ Stage duration

I'm going to try to make the stages not too long but increase the number of characters available. Characters can of course return in future episodes with different animations.

There will be many more clip variations than in the compilations, to keep the rhythm dynamic.

As for the final stages, they'll be longer.

Classic stage : 5-10 min

Boss Stage : 20+ min

All the stages will be in the video, so that's a lot of videos for me to add/script.

Duration total of the video : Probably 1h00-2h00.

✦ TEXT

Characters will talk to make things more difficult. There will probably be a version without text and one with, as with Bounty Hunter.

✦ Future additions

New features will be added to new episodes, increasing difficulty over time. This will allow the game to evolve over the long term without me having to touch up earlier videos.

✦ Types of contents

There will be 2D/3D R34 content, but also content from games with interesting content. There might even be some 2D Hentai content.

All creators/studios whose content I use will be credited at the end of the video and on Patreon.

======== ADDITIONAL NOTES ========

2 - COMPILATIONS

I plan to continue the compilations in addition to this new concept. However, I'm not sure I'll be able to do so yet, because of the problems mentioned above. I'll still try to bring you regular compilations to tide you over until the next big concept comes along. I can also reuse some of the animations from the compilations in other projects to reduce my workload (a little).

If I see that my health won't allow me to do compilations in addition to the new concept, I'll prioritize the new concept.

2 - X PROTOCOL

X Protocol is currently on hiatus. I had planned an episode for next month but due to my health problems I'm putting the project on hold for the time being. In addition, X Protocol has had mixed results due to a number of problems, not least the interface.

3 - REGULAR UPDATE

As with Bounty Hunter, update posts will be regularly uploaded to Patreon and Discord for the new concept.

4 - THE HANDY V2 AND SCRIPTS

All my old scripts will have a version for the Handy V2 PRO so we can make full use of its capabilities. As a result, my scripts will be more precise, with heights that are sometimes better respected.

6 - CONCLUSION

Bear in mind that this project may take some time to see the light of day, probably several months.

I'm planning to work quietly on it, so don't expect an episode every two months. This kind of video with an action-based funcript requires a huge amount of work, so I'll have to take my time. I've already made the decision that if my Patreon income drops too low, I'll take it on as a side job and do it in my spare time. I'll take as long as it takes, even if it takes 4-5 months between episodes. I'll still try to keep you informed as regularly as possible, of course. Please let me know what you think about the concept and any potential ideas.

For those who are worried: No, I don't intend to stop this Patreon. Even if I reduce the number of publications out of obligation, I'll keep you informed and continue to work more slowly on videos.

Thank you so much for your support. I'm trying to recover quickly so that I can really start working on this new concept. This new concept will be my main concept from now on, as was Bounty Hunter.

Take care of yourself and your loved ones <3
