Planning Ahead - Final Build Distributions
🕑 Added 2024-07-19 20:51:37 +0000 UTCNo, the project isn't finished. It still has a ways to go. I'm just planning ahead is all.
This is something I should have done ages ago, but I just decided to finally handle it last night. It would have been done sooner, but I thought this wouldn't work like I wanted. Turns out, I was missing a little step that seems to have corrected things.
When it comes to distributing the final project to all the folks that have supported me on Patreon, I've wondered how I'm gonna handle it short of people emailing me and telling me they supported on Patreon, and me sending them a code. It would take FOREVER. Itch makes this way easier for me!
---------------------------------------------------
First of all, you MUST use Itch for this. Itch will be the easiest way to handle this, and I will be able to distribute Steam keys this way as well. In the future, I might give out Steam codes VIA emails, but for the time being, this is how things will be.
For all ACTIVE and NEW patrons, use the following link to generate a key that will attach to your Itch account >> https://dynewulf.itch.io/exca/patreon-access
When it comes time for me to post the final builds, you will just have to go to the main page for the project to download it >> https://dynewulf.itch.io/exca
---------------------------------------------------
Notes
= Making an account on Itch is free and easy to do.
= It has a price on it, but you can ignore that. There is a single download at the moment, but it's more of a test / thank you message for everyone.
= You should have a message on the project page saying you own that project if done correctly.
= If you were a Patron in the past but are no longer one, I will be dealing with that later, so please do not message me asking about it. There's nothing to be done for that right now.
= I do plan on a Steam release, and Steam codes will be attached to the Itch page.
= Please try to keep the comments on this post related to this topic of the post.
---------------------------------------------------
That's really all there is to it! It's easy enough. I'm going to add this post to my pinned General Information post as well.
Again, thank you all so much for the support over the years! I really appreciate it and all that you do! Thank you~

I'll be doing something like that. Kinda like what I did with Spencer's bonus day! Seeing stuff from the other character's PoV during the route would be fun~
Alex West
Hey Dyne, have you ever thought of writing bonus days from the love interests POV, like the thoughts and dialog they would have when the MC is not around or something like that?
DyneWulf
At least setting up an account is free!
DyneWulf
The main project page on Itch will say at the top that you own the game, and that means you're set!

I sure wouldn't complain, bahaha

I don't have an itch account though.

Ok, so used itch.io account and then chose to "add to library ". Hope I did it right. Used the first link you gave us to do so.

Well considering people have paid $1K on Kickstarter supporter packs and likewise on say POE leagues supporter packs. It could happen and then Dyne would have to make more VNs & games for us to enjoy or he could give some to his hubby.

(wonders how many suspiciously wealthy furries will pay $500 for a cute PNG knowing that it was a silly price to make sure people didn't accidentally buy it.)
