Let's talk about animals
🕑 Added 2021-06-02 14:59:01 +0000 UTCHello! Today I want to share an idea with you, and ask for your thoughts.
Time Fantasy: Animals was one of the first expansion sets that I released years ago. That set revolves around farm animals and forest animals, but nothing very exotic.
I was looking at the recent requests-- and looking through the other additional animals that I've shared here on patreon over the past couple of years-- and it got me thinking about the possibility for Time Fantasy: Animals 2.
If I go ahead with this, it'd cover the themes like: jungle, desert, artic, and ocean-- to provide animal life to match with some of the tileset expansions.
Here's the catch: a lot of these animals have been previously made and released here on patreon. About half of the pack would be made up of sprites that I originally made for patrons.
So I'm asking for your permission to include these sprites in the pack:
These would make up a substantial part of the pack-- it goes beyond just a bonus inclusion or two. So I'm hesitant about this idea for two reasons: 1. this stuff was originally made for patrons, so that's why I'm asking for generally permission from you -- and 2. I feel weird charging new customers for the full pack if they might later join patreon and see that the content is duplicated.
So I would appreciate your honest input on this.
In addition to that, here are some ideas that I have to make new to include in this set (not necessarily promising all of them-- this is the brainstorm list):
- Elephant (+ Mammoth variation)
- Rhinoceros
- Hippo
- Giraffe
- Zebra
- Bison/Buffalo
- Crocodile
- Kangaroo
- Little Lizards
- Owl
- Tropical Birds (Toucan, Parrot in multiple color variations)
- Tropical Fish, Sting Ray, Blowfish
- Seal, Sea lion
- Penguin
- Crab
If you have other suggestions that would fit in well, please share them here!
This is the kind of expansion pack that I think I can jam out pretty quickly once I get into it, especially since I have so many of the animals already finished that I mentioned above. So please let me know what you think about the topics that I've raised here.
Is it a good idea to make Time Fantasy: Animals 2?
Thanks!

Dude, with the amount of quality content you provide, I don't think anyone should be off-put by you doing this. I agree with Dungeonmind, though. Maybe pop a notice or disclaimer on there so you don't get someone buying the pack then realizing they have half the stuff already lol. I know that personally, I bought packs THEN came to patreon and I have no ill feelings towards the money I spent before finding your patreon. I'm happy to throw down support when and where I can.
