Is this real life?
Added 2016-03-20 20:54:47 +0000 UTC4th Milestone Goal achieved? Already? Last week we just unlocked the 3rd Milestone Goal!
Thanks a milion, guys! We wanted to give you a present like we did on the 3rd Milestone goal but we've had no time to do it yet. We're working on the 0.30v and we are trying to have it ready some days before this month ends. This way patrons who supported us on February will receive it immediately and all new patrons will receive in a few days later when they process their first pledges.
But don't worry, we'll do anyway a promotional/thanks picture for you as soon as possible ;)
About the 4th Milestone Goal, well, like the description tells, being above this number will guarantee the development of ALL the planets we have in mind.
BUT we need to make clear a few things first:
1- We're still working on the Dog planet's Easter Egg! Once we finish this update, we'll start immediately with the development of a new Cat Planet. Don't expect anything on 0.30 about the new planet.
2- After 0.30, we'll start developing the second planet. Not the 3rd and the 4th yet.
3-Developing the first version of Space Paws (0.10) with the first planet took us about 3-4 months (without animations, just one H-scene...). After this easter egg, the next version (probably named 0.40) will probably take us more than a month of development and we expect to bring you a half developed second planet. It's true that we've got more or less everything thought already, but there's still a lot of work to do. ^_^
With the current support we're working on Space Paws a bit more than our free time, but it's not our main job so be patient, please. As always, we'll post all the advances on Patreon.
Finally, our patron thwerizat asked us for the list of our Milestone goals. With the updated site, you can't see the Milestone goals we've achieved so far :(
We think it's useful for you to know where we are:
MILESTONE GOALS
50$-Happy toast! (Our first supporters!)
500$-Prioritrywork (We'll start focusing on Space more more than in our free time)
1000$-2nd Planet, here we are!
1500$-3rd & 4th Planet, here we are!
2000$-That's almost a salary! (We'd give up some activities to spend more time developing)
4000$-Creating is what we do (we'll totally dedicate our time to create games)
6000$-Reinforcements are coming! (new member)

Well, I'd like the 1.5K milestone to stand at least, but I'm hoping for the best :D

2016-03-24 00:55:33 +0000 UTChahaha, not yet, we'll need at least 1-2 public releases to reach that goal in our opinion. But remember that the first days of every month the number usually goes a bit down (declined pledges, fake patrons...) Probably we'll be below the 4th milestone goal...

2016-03-23 15:52:21 +0000 UTCNice word as always Kevin, Thanks! Just want to underline the fact that creating 0.10 took 4 months and other 4-5 months more improving it. For the other planets we'll do it in less than that, of course, but we want to let new patrons know that we need some time in order to do a good job :)

2016-03-21 07:14:32 +0000 UTCI'm so excited for you guys! I cannot wait to see what you do with all this growing support!

2016-03-21 01:33:36 +0000 UTCI was just saying that things were taking off! It's because of the great work you are doing, and the more you create, the more interest it generates. Congrats, u deserve it! As for the timeline, I'd rather see you work at whatever pace, and do what works for you, rather than you pushing out crap or getting burnt out trying to make the universe happy. I got patience, and you got my support, so lets party like it's 1999 :D

2016-03-20 21:20:35 +0000 UTCSounds good! Though I was hoping for a Fox-planet before cats, but oh well. You have a couple typos there: "4rd milestone goal achieved?" right at the start of the post, and "About the 4rd milestone goal" in the middle.
