Billing option...
🕑 Added 2018-03-24 17:21:50 +0000 UTC Hi everyone, I am wondering how everyone might feel or think about the billing system.As I do work a full time job taking up 55 hours a week of my time including my commute and so far I have been able to have a release every month. But as TAC gets further along and more material Is added I’m scared I may not be able to release each month. This month should be good *fingers crossed* but April and beyond is what is stressing me out lol.
What I am wondering is, would you prefer a “per major release” option or stick to monthly billing?
Thank you all in advance and as always I am truly grateful for your support.

I said monthly, but I'm fine with either. I have to agree that this is a good game.

Thanks, I’m really not stressing over the game itself. I truly enjoy working on it almost every day. My wife helps at times also. I just don’t like letting people down, that’s my stress. But you made some very good points and will think about it long and hard before making my decision.

I did not select. This is what you do for us. It is a really good game....for now. If you start to stress over it then you will likely join other creators who bail in it because it just gets to be more than they thought or care to pursue and Im sick to fucking death of starting games only to have the creator bail suddenly change their mind about what game they want to build or just to suck patreons knob, or have the creator bail altogether and leave the game to die. Do what you have to do to make this work for you. Im currently only investing a buck so I really dont even have a voice...but you damn sure better listen to your own inner voice. I would suggest just letting us continue to pay...if you get something out fine, even if its smaller. If not, keep us posted as to when but certainly no less than once every other month. Because yeah, you change this to per release, its permanent, and that would suck later if you got back into the groove and wanted to get back to a monthly billing cycle.

I'm fine with per moth billing as is and if you don't manage a release that month it is still O.K.

Ya you can change to per creation but I couldn’t change back if I make the change.

That’s what stresses me out, I don’t want to upset people because of running late and I don’t want to burn out lol.

Can you even change it ? I know people who can't go back.

Per major release lets me stay subscribed, as I'll typically unsubscribe if a month goes by without an update, but I'd resubscribe per release anyways. I'd say go with whatever keeps you motivated and prevents burnout- if you burn out, we'll get no updates at all!

I try to have every chapter update with at the minimum 200 new renders and multiple scenes. Chapter 4 will be the largest yet.
Take your time Mircom3D. Better have one chapter in 1,5-2 months but really good one and big (4-5 or even more scenes) than one short update (1-2 scenes) per month. P.S. Sorry for my bad English
