[JAN2026] GOOEYCANDY Newsletter! 🎇 Monthly Rewards & Recap!

It's the first newsletter of 2026! Thanks for your patience as I've settled in back home!

If you read the last one, you know I have decided to simplify the Gooeycandy Newsletters a bit! They weren't getting the same engagement as full posts, and I found myself rushing content for them.

So now, newsletters are once a month and will focus on handing out monthly rewards, small updates on what I'm working on, and recapping the previous month, rather than big announcements! Rest assured, this means I have more time to focus on and complete work properly! And this year I plan to be more productive than ever before!~

That being said, this weekend (possibly as soon as tomorrow), my art book pre-orders will go live, as well as a fun event I have been planning for a while that goes along side it! SO IM VERY HYPED!!

Anyway, onto the newsletter!

To claim your monthly Hands On! game title, go here! There you will find instructions on how to claim & play!

Simply message me which game you'd like (once per month of subscription) through Patreon! You can also e-mail me at gooeycandyart@gmail.com if you can't figure out Patreon!

It may take a few days for me to see your message and send your code, so please be patient.

🛍️ Shop Updates: 

There's a new freebie sticker with orders placed on January 9th and later... hey wait that's me, what am I doing there?

Also, this month's special code just for patrons is 'HAPPYNUDEYEAR' ! Use it at checkout for 10% off your entire order on my shop!

This code will last for this month only!

🎨 Last Month's Recap:

I finally completed the first 2 character bios for my site, so if you want to learn more about Candy & Flex, check it out!

🔮 What's Coming Up:

• ONGOING: Hands On! will continue progress - stay tuned!

• CURRENT FOCUS: The long awaited launch of my art book pre-orders, alongside a very special event that I've put a LOT of work into!

• AFTER THAT: The poll winning piece for Incineroar!

✅ Ongoing Poll:

"Date Everything" won the ensemble poll, so now you can vote to decide which characters from the game make it into this grand ensemble piece! Vote here!

💬 Suggestion Box:

There is no current suggestion box! One will open after the Incineroar (the last poll winner) piece is complete!

💘 Boy Talk:

Here you can suggest ideas, pairings, scenarios, settings, alts or anything for upcoming pieces!

The next piece I'm starting will be the Incineroar piece that won the character poll late last year! I have some ideas for it already, but I'm always open your suggestions!
