Hi The garry:
a 1 dollar sub is amazing. Sure, if you have a triple A game you might want to price for exclusivity. Or even if you have a FINISHED triple A (porn) game.
It lets those of us who like you (but arent obsessed with you) know we appreciate your work and creativity.
It also lets us support those we really love without breaking the bank (as a patreon who likes supporting designers, i cant genuinely support everyone - not only am i not particularly rich, i also dont care that much).
What on earth are you sold out of?
Im not spending 5 bucks a month when my mainstays are only 2 bucks a month and they completely cater to my fetishes.
I love your game.I legit went to throw a few bucks your way. Yeah. its NOT much. Individually. But the point is youre not looking for a sponsor or investor? Shit is supposed to add up (100 people equals 100 bucks OB-VI-OU-SLY). One-two bucks a month are for people like me who enjoy your content and want to say thanks. But for reasons you have decided this is 'sold out'... WHAT??? sold out of what? appreciation? love? my actual physical money?
I think you have this arse backwards. The people who want this game and are obsessed with it will fund it. The people who like it are gonna throw a few bucks. You dont need to be amazingly grateful. But perhaps... just an idea... dont shut them out of doing so? Sold out? get a grip.
Dude. Reopen your bottom tier. And appreciate what they send you. Its not much. But they are saying loud and clear: I love your stupid game, i want you to make more stupid games. They arent entirely for me, but im happy you put your creativity out there because its cool as shit. I wish i could do it. But because i cant, thanks for making the world a tiny bit more colorful.
(okay, im being a drama queen, but you get the point: We want games like yours even if they dont plumb the depths of the shittier games we adore (theyre really good even if they dont have those animation innovations because every idiot on patreon is different and wants different shit - though i want another game from you).
