Men, caribdis, is one of the few developers that gets along with the community here at f95 and I think this is great, hopefully your game will go up in the rankings more and more. No kidding, if Patreon used my country's currency I would have helped you a long time ago.

Patron doesn't use my county's currency either but that doesn't stop me from supporting the best games (Once in a Lifetime and Pale Carnations). Just use PayPal and be done with it. Or use credit card, it will convert currency.

Okay let me explain in detail the problem we are facing!
It's called a Currency Blockade. This phenomenon means that we cannot, under any circumstances, use or own anything related to any other currency in the world except OUR OWN (whether it is an international bank account with another currency or spending any other currency except our own). Paypal requires owning a bank account with said currency, Euro, Dollars, Yen... And since we cannot have a bank account with a different currency than our own, we cannot spend money on Paypal since it doesn't support our currency, same for Steam and literally any other international luxury you people can spend your money on. Long story short, the problem relies on the country I live in and travel is nearly impossible without a valid reason.
Trust me when I say that for 11 years, I had to rely on middlemen, selling TF2/DOTA2 stuff and literally begging in order to fulfill my Steam needs because of this stupid BS. Every single person I tell this problem tells me to use Paypal and similar responses of this genre. When I tell them about my problem in detail like I do every time, they pity me like everyone else. So yeah, don't tell us to spend money if it is literally impossible for us to do so in the first place.
That's my two cents on the matter. If you have any questions, ask them to me directly in Private Message. I don't wanna ruin this topic any further.

I never used paypal in my life for a simple reason, at the moment I don't have an international card because I don't need it and direct payment in bank accounts is only for national transactions, so I will say again if it was possible to help in my case, I already would have done a long time ago.And I didn’t know about the existence of the itch site, I’m logging in for the first time now.

bruh... did you read the if in that statement.... meaning if you don't have paypal then the comment is invalid :|

I have no idea what they were on about besides the fact they couldn't use patreon... so I suggested an alternative that they might be able to use... emphasis on the might.

fair enough. just thought I would throw it out there since I have used itch.io myself (I can't afford to do recurring and don't trust patreon).

I gotta ask what country is the dev from because his patreon has some weird amounts for its tiers
If you're talking about VAT, it's normal if you're european, since Patreon is on the US. On Twitch it happens the same thing.

Update is soon right? I might have subbed just to play sooner but I'd still need the patch anyway.....Guess I'll have to suck it up and be patient.

'End of the Month' has been stated multiple times, so he probably just checks his magic 8 ball once the 22nd starts.

As I always say, haste is the enemy of perfection. As long the game is great as usual I don't care when it's released, I just wanna have a good time enjoying his work.

Thats only true to a certain extent. It hasnt happened to this game yet and Im not saying it will but if a game takes to long to finish then what couldve been a "perfect" game will just become average or worst due to the progression of the environment around it.
