Weekly Update - 26 August, 2024
🕑 Added 2024-08-26 02:00:02 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
Welcome to the last weekly update for August. This one has some important information about upcoming changes to the Patreon, so it might be a good idea to read until the end.
As far as progress this week, I managed another square 7,000, bringing Chapter Two up to 13,000 overall. I'm hoping it'll be at 18k when the BIP releases.
Anyway, I promised a rundown on the new version of Patreon this week, and here it is. Basically, my goals were to 1) make the BIP more accessible in terms of price, because I know it's a bit expensive currently, and 2) to give myself a few less extras to worry about every month so I can focus on getting the sequel out in a more reasonable time frame than the almost four years it took me to finish the first game!
So, the tiers themselves aren't changing in price, but what is available in each of them will be swapped around a bit. The following structure will go into effect on 1 September, 2024.
Seedling ($2 USD): Weekly Update, 3 days early access to new chapters (when the demo process begins)
Bud ($5 USD): Weekly Update, 3 days early access, access to monthly BIP
Blossom ($10 USD): Weekly Update, 7 days early access, access to monthly BIP, monthly bonus content
Full Bloom ($25 USD): Weekly Update, 10 days early access, access to monthly BIP, monthly bonus content, custom short story (one-time, after 3 months only)
Now, this new structure with the BIP specifically causes a bit of a bump in things when it comes to the August/September changeover. If the Bud Tier gets access to the BIP on the 1st, then it seems there was no benefit to the extra $5 Blossoms paid in August. To avoid this, I'll actually be releasing two versions of the August BIP. The 'Bud Version,' what will be available to the Bud Tier on September 1, will contain the completed Chapter One. The 'Blossom Version' will have not only that, but also the material I've done so far on Chapter Two.
Come the end of September, everyone at Bud Tier and up will receive the same BIP. I hope this is a way I can make things fair to everyone.
So, there it is. I apologize for the text wall, and I hope it was all understandable. I suspect a lot of you at the Blossom Tier will wanting to drop to Bud, so I wanted to give you ample time to do that before the changes go into effect. :)
Anyway, that's that on that. I hope you all have a lovely week, and I'll be back here three days(!) before FoA releases with what I suspect will be a very nervous weekly update next Monday.
