Pre-release info post
🕑 Added 2024-10-31 18:48:25 +0000 UTCI'll be posting content shortly that catches the content up to the month of October.
I have to apologize because I got way behind—not really with making content, but with uploading stuff to Patreon.
As many of you who have stayed might know, of course, I will always catch up. As usual, you will get a direct message that contains content for the month(s) you were supporting, even if you aren't currently.
Starting in November, a few things will change. Firstly, I plan to make at least one mini scene per month (but it'll ultimately be decided by patrons what I'm working on). The mini scenes will use the library of existing unused animations I have. I made a post about mini scenes here:
https://spiralvortexplay.com/svp/2024/10/31/the-return-of-mini-scenes/
It'll likely be more than one since they are pretty simple to make. Once one is done, I'll move on to the next one right away, or the next thing to work on can be voted on. But once the unused animations have been used. We can start making new stuff.
This should work well since...
Secondly, I have to switch from first-of-the-month billing to subscription billing methods in November.
From Patreon's FAQ page about this:
"Nothing changes for your existing members. They’re still charged on the 1st of each month."
"New paid members are charged when they join and monthly on that same date instead of on the 1st of each month. For example, a member who signs up on April 12 is charged again on May 12. Members will see their next charge date at checkout and in their Memberships tab."
So either way, it's still a monthly charge. However now it depends on when you signed up vs all being charged at the same time on the 1st.
For you all, that means I will try to have content all through the month vs being packaged into monthly releases.
I plan to post regular game updates when they are ready. But keep in mind that as game updates are not always ready to be presented publicly every month. Sometimes progress is going well, but the game itself is still very fragmented, or I've only gotten a lot of writing done. So update frequency will depend on what's being worked on.
I also plan to bring back a lot of the voting/poll stuff. I'd like to have the main benefit of supporting the patreon, to be patrons participating in what is actually being made. Something that you have to be actively supporting to get. This will apply to mini scenes, pinups, art, h-videos, MMD, all of it. I'll also be starting some other initiatives also but I'll make posts for that later.
I'll be making changes to the patreon to reflect all this in the next few days. Please keep an eye on my website also for new posts, as I'm going to be getting back into gear shortly.
Sorry again for the delay.
