Changing the format of Gym Pals R2

Added 2021-07-08 13:45:27 +0000 UTC

"Gym Pals" has been released as a four-frame comic. I usually draw 2 episodes each update, but I never combined them into 1 page, unlike Gym Pals R2.

The formats of these two comics feel inconsistent to me. It also affects the frequency how often I update Gym Pals R2.
In order to fix this situation, I decide to:

Gym Pals R2 will no longer be updated as "pages". Instead, it will be updated as "episodes".
2 episodes are equivalent to 1 page.
According to the articles above , the rewards (Gym Pals R2) for full moon/Gibbous tier are adjusted from "1~2 pages" to "2~4 episodes" each month.

By changing the format of Gym Pals R2, I can release 1 episode each update without under the pressure that I have to draw 2 episodes at the same time.
And If I have more time, I can release 3 episodes a month instead of only 1 page. That means I can update the comic more frequently!

Thank you for your support. I'll continue to do my best!

PS: I'll start editing the format of previous pages, page 1 will become episode 1&2, page 2 will become episode 3&4, you can expect to receive notification after the pages are adjusted. So, next update will be episode 5 instead of page 3!

健身小哥一直以來都是以四格漫畫的形式，以一列算一話的方式，而不像健身小哥R2，是兩話合成一頁。

這樣的作法造成格式不一致，除此以外也影響到我更新漫畫的速度。為了一次更新兩話，導致我沒有辦法抽空畫健身小哥本傳，而為了更新本傳則會導致我一個月頂多生的出一頁的小哥R2。

為了解決這個狀況，我決定進行以下調整：

健身小哥R2以後會以「話」而不是「頁」的格式釋出。
兩話的量等於一頁。
根據上述，5美金和7美金的獎勵(健身小哥R2)將從每月1~2頁調整為每月2~4話。

藉由此次調整，我可以一次更新釋出一話漫畫，而不需要因為得一次釋出兩話而備感壓力。
而如果時間足夠的話，比起只更新一頁，我可以一個月釋出到三話。這表示我能更新更頻繁！

感謝大家一直以來的支持，我會持續帶給大家更好的作品！

附註：在各位閱讀公告的同時，我會開始編輯過去釋出的頁數，第1頁會變成第1&2話，第2頁會變成第3&4話。以此類推下次更新會是第5話，而不是第3頁喔！
