Membership Benefits Update
Added 2024-09-25 15:41:48 +0000 UTCHey everyoneee!!
Okay so, I hope you're all excited to read this post as I am to make it! I know many of you are satisfied with the quality of content on this page but simply want more. I don't disagree at all with this sentiment. For those of you who felt like I was doing a great job already and felt fully satisfied, I thank you whole heartedly!!
But I will say, I myself was really unsatisfied too. So, I am super happy to announce that I have FINALLY been able to save up all the precious money you've all been providing these months to buy a BRAND NEW graphics card!!!
With this new graphics card I can literally get a picture made from scratch to ready-to-post within ONE MINUTE. Beforehand one picture could literally take me nearly an entire hour. Not anymore.
So, this means not only will I be making so much more content, but also, you will be benefitting directly as well. Because starting on October 1st, I am increasing the amount of pictures for every tier exponentially!!
Tier 2 - Patrons will go from 1 picture commission/month to 4 pictures commission/month, doubled for every 3 months subbed
Tier 3 - Patrons will go from 2 pictures commission/month to 10 pictures commission/month, doubled for every 3 months subbed
Tier 4 - Patrons will go from 3 pictures commission/month to 50 image character sets/month, doubled for every 3 months subbed and 8 pictures/month, doubled for every 3 months subbed
Tier 5 - Patrons will go from 5 pictures commission/month to 100 image character sets/month, doubled for every 3 months subbed and 10 pictures/month, doubled for every 3 months subbed
RECOMMENDATIONS: This will go into effect immediately on October 1st regardless of whether you've been charged or not. So I recommend for those of you interested in upgrading to do so now because you can still get your commissioned images for this month and then your commissioned images for next month!
What about character sets and voting privileges?
First and foremost, the Peach and Bayonetta sets will still be releasing after the Kushina set.
This doesn't mean character sets are only reliant on commissions, however. I will still continue to make character sets. The difference is every character will be chosen by me. Character sets will also release much more quickly. Starting on October 1st expect one set every 2 days.
This does unfortunately mean I am retiring voting privileges for character sets. I know this is unfortunate news and very disappointing. But honestly I simply felt that higher tier Patrons were simply not being rewarded enough. On top of that, this gives you much more control over who you want to see personally.
The poll list of characters would have always been dependent on me and who's relevant. This means you'd only have a little control over who you could even vote for. And if your character was on the list, there was a good chance they wouldn't make the cut. So, I feel like overall this leads to much more control and satisfaction in the long run for you and me.
Won't this take time away from visual novel games?
Yes and no. While yes working on all this new content will inevitably cause me to shift focus, like I said in a previous update post, I can generate images as I work on the game simultaneously. The fact that I can generate images significantly faster also means I will have more free time to code and generate for games!!
I will also retire the benefit of giving Patrons the choice to choose characters in my next main game as most people I asked seemed uninterested in this benefit. This will be effective immediately. So upgrading now will NOT allow you to give me your character last minute. I will not be accepting any more characters either for those of you who've already been tier 4 or 5 members. For those of who did give me your character have no fear! I assure you they are still making it in as promised!
Well, that's it! I am workshopping many more benefit ideas. I want to see how these changes take effect first before jumping the gun. Once I get a really good feel for the new workload I'll consider adding new benefits!!
Thank you all for reading this much. As always this was a super long post haha. I hope you can walk away from this post with optimism and more excitement than ever!!
See you next time!!
