Boosty?
Added 2023-03-18 15:29:24 +0000 UTCHi guys! I don't want to distract you with anything other than the development news, but I have a little problem. I haven't received any money from Patreon for more than a year and I decided to switch to another platform called Boosty. I have already tried it, it works and I can withdraw money from it.
I must say right away, I understand that not all users will be happy about this and will want to switch to Boosty, so I made more convenient conditions there in terms of the cost of subscription levels, and I also want to list some advantages.
1. No additional fees. All additional fees of the site will be paid by me, not by the user. In other words, if the subscription costs $2, then you will pay $2 without any additional fees as on Patreon.
2. You can to send files and pictures in messages. This would make it better to point out possible bugs in the game and send me saves containing bug so that I can fix it faster.
3. Uploading videos to posts. Boosty allows you to upload videos up to 20 GB per post, which would allow me to upload a video demonstration of new mechanics, as well as 18+ videos... Yes, I have not forgotten about this part of the game and I will be working on it soon...
In general, guys, I ask you to at least try and hope that Boosty will be no worse for you than Patreon. I am also ready to refund you money for the last month on Patreon... I can't use them anyway.
And yes, I won't quit Patreon until all users have switched, so until then, posts will be published on both platforms.

Thanks a lot for your support and your time! ;) And yeah, all users not from US have to pay fees, plus then I'm gonna pay additional fees before I get anything on my Patreon's account. In this case Boosty way more user friednly because only I'm gonna pay fees not user.

I had no idea their fee structure was worse than Steam. ;) This is the first I've heard of Boosty, but I'll set up an account and move my support of your development there.
