PSA: Tier Changes & Rebranding
🕑 Added 2022-04-29 13:14:42 +0000 UTCEya guys o/
I'm changing how tiers work and their themes! I'll go through and explain all the changes in this post
Retiring Cookie Tier
First off, I'm retiring the original £3 Cookie tier. It has been unlisted and new patrons will not be able to pledge to it any longer. Any patron that is already pledged to the Cookie tier can continue to do so and I will keep providing the same perks as stated on the tier prior to any changes today. Any future additions to higher tiers will not be reflected but you will be able to keep the current price, thus I would recommend changing over to the higher tiers if you would like to get new perks introduced or if you'd like to support me further!
Now I'd like to explain the reasoning behind this change. When I originally created the base cookie tier at £3, I really didn't take into account the amount of fees that patreon would remove from it, between the payment fees and patreon's revenue cut. And though it was fine at the time, considering patreon a side thing and not having to really cover any expenses at home, now that the patreon has grown so much and I've added quite a few new things and expenses have piled on both at home and with various expenses to support my patreon such as website hosting, the low cut I take away from it is no longer feasible. I believe that I will deliver worthwhile content for the new lowest tier, between the polls, comics, art and animations that I work on and future perks I'll add as time goes on.
I appreciate the support from everyone who has pledged on the Cookie tier and will keep appreciating the support, and while I am moving on to new tier structure, I still feel extremely grateful for any support I get, no matter how big or little it is. I hope you guys can understand the changes and that, even if you remain on the Cookie tier, I will still provide what I promised to it and treat you all the same!
New Tier Structure
Moving on to explaining the new tier structure, both current tiers have been existing previously but have gotten brand new art to go with the new theming!
The Espresso Tier (previously named Mega Cookie) at £5 is the new base tier!
You gain access to all previous and future art at full resolution on polygonheart.com, which now includes animations that I have been working on and will try to release more often! You also get access to the current comic as it releases, with new pages each Saturday, and 50% off all previously released comics! You gain access to voting on bi-weekly polls, access to exclusive discord chats where I post WIPs, talk anything patreon-related and can suggest what goes into said bi-weekly polls!
The Cappuccino Tier (previously named Ultra Cookie) at £10 is the other tier available at the moment!
This tier gains all perks from the Espresso tier as well as access to an exclusive Discord chat where we discuss what goes into the comics as well as what nsfw comic to do next, which is decided with a poll exclusive to the Cappuccino patrons! You also gain a 5% discount on commissions (I don't open up for commissions often so please do keep that in mind)
That's all the changes that are happening, if you have any questions feel free to reply to this post or ask about it on the discord or in DMs! Thank you all for the support so far and I hope that you'll stick around for what's to come! I'll try my best to make the changes worth it.
