Huge Change on the Patreon
🕑 Added 2023-06-04 17:07:24 +0000 UTCHello friends, Sheppi here with a huge mod to the way the Patreon works. This change is intended to give more options to every Patron, while not erasing the value of the assets and Tokens I make which take tons of work.
Introducing Loyalty
Loyalty is a virtual currency which equal to the amount of months/dollars of support of each Patron. 1$ per 5 months = 5 Loyalty. 10$ per 5 months = 50 Loyalty
Accumulating Loyalty will let you obtain any asset or tokens from every tier, depending on how much time you support this project. This is intended to give everyone a chance to play with the toys I make, and as a cheaper ¨subscription¨ for those who don't have deep pockets.
Everything you have, you keep, so this doesn't affect current Patreons, but it gives some a chance to pick stuff not available for them currently.
10 Loyalty = 1 Month of access. (Tokens, Maps and Assets) Which I will send personally to every Patreon the last weekend of each month.
You can personally select a particular Pack if you want an specific Token or Asset tileset. If you dont know in which Pack is a particular asset, I can find it for you, but I will also make a Preview Page for each pack. Some months have been compressed to reduce the amount of Loyalty needed to have them, like the 2D tokens (Packs of 26)
Does this mean that compendiums are gone? Yes, they are still available in Moulinette (based on the amount of total support on the Patreon)
Tier 3 Supporters will still receive Weekly Tokens and Basic Maps
Tier 4 Supporters will still get Weekly Advanced Maps
Tier 5 Supporters will still get Weekly Assets and Expert Maps
Tier 6 Supporters will still get their personal Token Comission
So there is no changes to top tiers, only more stuff for low tiers, and for mid tiers to have access to all the stuff.
If you have accumulated 170 Loyalty (11-12 months of 15$ dollar support) You have access to everything currently. And will have access as always, to a ever growing library of toys to make the best campaign ever

I know, I personally don't like losing the compendiums, but I will send everyone personally the stuff from now on.

Makes sense. I've always felt that being able to subscribe for one month to get everything and then cancelling was a bit too easy. Updating my asset libraries becomes more tedious though without the compendiums.

I like this. It seems to align with the intent of long-term support for the artists Patreon was built for.
