Patron Game Dev Open Call
🕑 Added 2020-11-29 11:43:36 +0000 UTCHello all,
Sorry to be quiet this week, while most people's holidays are probably a little less populated this year, mine are kinda over the top as we hustle at the nursing home to make the holidays fun for our patients who can't see their families this year. But I'm home finally.
So as some of you may remember, originally when my Patreon was focused on my art and the game dev was kind of secondary, I had a gimmick going where patrons could put their patron tier to supporting one of two characters I designed: Iona the demon and Rhea the angel. Whichever group had more funding at the end of the month would lead me to draw a picture of one domming the other. It was an... idea... Yeah I wasn't honestly literate about how Patreon works and it kinda proved to be a disinterested wash. But I also can't remove the tiers or peoples' pledges will be cancelled. For a while I tossed with it and I finally came up with something.
What about a game featuring the two? It would be a way to give out something patron exclusive while staying more on point with the focus on game development. What's more, the entire design process will be open-forum. Unlike Anthro Asylum, where I'm working on my own specific vision, I want people to give input on every step of the process and at any point they'd like. Not only will it be a fun project with community input but also kind of a chance to see what's going on under the hood as I work.
So in short, I want people to start talking up ideas and the like for games. Don't feel super constrained by the girls' current designs because even that is on the table. You can contribute here in the community page on Patreon or on my discord server. My only request is to always suggest ideas in one of those settings rather than me privately: I want this to be a collaborative effort!
