Work is being done, what Haseo was trying to do was not spoil what was going on. Last months build was "a buggy piece of shit" (not my words but the community) so what do we do? We go and fix a bunch of stuff in order to remedy that. SR7 tackled animations this month, he worked on several with the expectation that he could finish them. Unfortunately they are not up to snuff (due to the community not wanting a buggy piece of shit). Remember the doing X instead of Y thing I mentioned as #2 complaint. I wasn't laughing when I posted that comment, I was being sarcastic, meaning that those comments were going to come irregardless of the content or production value of what we put out.

Hmm... So I'm guessing some Raven content to passify the unwashed masses (unless this is the animation he's having trouble with,) Terra content because Sunset hasn't become sick of drawing her yet and Harley redraw because she needed it. Maybe some Killer Frost if there is time or alternately some BF/SF content. I'm cool with a bug fix edition. It's time I restarted anyway... I'm way up in the 300s on days.

I would prefer that the Dev gave the existing characters some more content, instead of adding even more plates he's spinning already. In the last update, we were given a pretty big package on one single new character , while many older characters got nothing. Each new character is a new plate needing to be spinned, many are looking almost stale for a while now, i would rather see those characters getting fleshed out, before new characters were added. But hey, content is content, i'll take what i can get.

Hey, Haseo and Smokey,

I've noticed you guys have reached a bit of a plateau for your monthly income on Patreon and I have a suggestion. The $20 and $50 patrons don't receive anything more than gratitude and from what I've seen on here, a lot of people are usually upset with what SR7 decides to work on for each new build. Why not develop a voting system? SR7 can come up with a sheet of characters and their content that needs to be developed and voters can decide on who and what they want for the next build. It can be a point based system with $20 patrons having their votes count as 1 point and $50 patrons having their votes count as 3. It might not bring in any new patrons, but some of the insider (maybe even basic level) patrons would probably bump up their monthly contributions for that kind of offer.

Obviously, the voting system would need to be refined a bit more to match SR7's workload and it would have to meet certain time limits so that he can have his full agenda before starting on each build, but maybe you can run the idea past him and see if it's something you guys think would work.

Thats a good point but everyone who pledged should be able to vote not just the higher tier
It'd be a point based system, so maybe those that pledge at $5 and $10 could vote, but those that pledge more would have greater weight with their votes. It seems only fair that those willing to pledge $50 should have much more say than those only pledging $5. Still, this is only a suggestion and a rough draft at best. It would need some refinement, and that's considering the SR7 team even likes the idea at all.

Yeah i agree with you but they rather go with yearly update than a voting system

Yeah, but the whole point of the voting system isn't just to make the whole process more consumer friendly. It's also to try and get them more money, which will help them build their team. They've been hovering around $9600-$9800 a month for quite a while now and that's still quite a ways off from their goal of $11,000. This system adds extra incentive for people to pledge more. People who want a say/greater say in what content they want at the end of the two months will shell out more and the SR7 team's monthly income increases. This should lead to the team growing and, hopefully, newer/better content coming out.

They could increase their worktime by making it a tree month update
I'd rather they reach their goal, bring on an animator or programmer full time, and have them help with the game. Hell, if they could get to the point where they could afford both, it could lead to bi-monthly updates with more/better content and significantly less bugs. This leads to happier consumers who will be willing to continue putting money in their pockets. Everyone wins.

But here we are stuck with a bi monthly update with the equivalent 1 month update and they're the only ones happy and winning

That's why I think the voting system would work. It would pretty much guarantee that they have to complete a certain amount by the agreed time. And if not, they risk the possibility of losing patrons or having them downgrade.
