Progress Report, $10 Tier Changes for August, 22/07 - 22
🕑 Added 2022-07-22 12:16:10 +0000 UTCHello everyone and welcome to another in the line of progress reports!
Miranda project is still in the works, but owing to my work schedule and my somewhat tenuous relation with its star it looks likely to be pushed into early next month for its release. Animation is in full swing though, so it's just about getting all those Vorcha to do what they were meant to do in a manner that is conducive to the quality expected of my work these days. Let it be known that legs that bend both backward and forward are, more often than not, a nightmare to work with :)
$10 tier changes are coming too! Starting in August next month, I am adding an additional poll opportunity to the tier, making it twice per month instead of once, as well as adding what I call the "Tuesday Aftermath" exclusive wallpaper to the tier - meant to show what happened after the animation loops the tier votes for. I've listened to the feedback by backers and realized that, while an exclusive monthly poll tend to be the norm for the highest tier of patreons like mine, it's still a bit sparse in terms of actual engagement, and I wracked my brain trying to figure out how to increase the value of the tier while not overloading myself with additional work, and most importantly, without taking any value away from other backer tiers, which I'd abhor to do. This was the solution, a small increase in work load, and more agency for the tier, which also will ensure that there's more rotation among the cooldowns for the various characters and themes in the polling. To clarify though: the exclusive wallpapers only apply to the animation that comes as a result of the polls, so they won't be every Tuesday.
While this means shorter polling periods where people will have to be on their toes to get their vote in, I have high hopes that this will make the tier feel more valuable and/or interesting for those who have considered it less so in the past.
Comic work is still also still in the pipeline, though the Miranda project is taking priority at the moment in a desperate bid to make myself push through - I'm really itching to get back to making more panels (and the gods know there's plenty left to make), so expect that to really take off once I have this animation sorted.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support and for all of your kind words! I must say that the enthusiasm by which my work is received is genuinely heartening, so thank you so much everyone for your feedback and for supporting what I do here. While the heat beats down on us all, I can find respite in the appreciation I have here, so thank you as well for alleviating some of the pain that a lack of air condition means :)
Take care of yourselves, and each other! Stay hydrated!
