Added 2023-03-22 19:53:27 +0000 UTCHi, I have seen that there are some Patrons who, when they cancel their subscription, indicate as a reason to cancel that "Tropecita Games wasn't as active as I expected".
I don't know if this is a general perception, if you would like me to post more things, or if I bother you enough.
Do you think I should post more? What do other developers you support do?
Leave in the comments what kind of content you would like me to post more often, please.

Thanks, One of the things I like the most about this job/hobby is talking with you, guys. It's a pleasure to talk to so diverse people and learn every day something new from you.

2023-06-20 22:46:52 +0000 UTCYou are the most active dev I have ever encountered! Right now, you are the only one I am supporting at the moment.
Friend Of David
2023-06-20 10:40:40 +0000 UTCI totally agree π

2023-03-24 00:36:08 +0000 UTCThanks, Roger, Perhaps I was worrying about nothing and you are right.

2023-03-23 22:13:39 +0000 UTCThanks, Marlboro. When I read about the activity, I thought about wallpapers, progress reports, etc, but I think you are right and maybe they referred to updates. Last two have been huge and took more than 30 days.

2023-03-23 22:05:01 +0000 UTCHehehe ^^ No worries, i have good mental firewalls π That doesn't mean that you have to post every testrender you still have archived though. ^^

2023-03-23 16:24:01 +0000 UTCNo idea what they are talking about. Out of all the dev i give my support to, you have to be one of the most active. Sounds like to me they just pressed the first option on the list.

2023-03-23 07:40:51 +0000 UTCA lot expect new updates as soon as they finished playing the previous one and only see releases as βactivityβ. Might to be easy to get how much work is hidden behind a 30 minutes update for those who only play. Easier to blame author that just admitting they a short in cash.
Marlboro
2023-03-23 06:49:34 +0000 UTCThat's weird cause you are one of the most active devs around. In my opinion you should keep it the way it is π

2023-03-23 04:06:13 +0000 UTCThanks, Daxx, you've been missed on the Discord server. I hope all is going well for you and your break from online things is not for anything bad. You know where you can find me if you want to chat. I've always said that chatting with fantastic people is one of the things I enjoy the most of being a dev. Uploading updates to different servers and updating the links is the one I enjoy the less π

2023-03-22 23:58:56 +0000 UTCLike most of the others here I'm happy with the amount you post things on here, for me it's about the right amount. But I always have the option to jump on discord if I want more info as you've always been around to talk when I've been on (admittedly I haven't been on discord for over a month now but that's because I'm taking a break from a lot of online stuff for a while). Pro tip for anyone here that wants more information/interaction with the Dev - Join the Discord server! Trop is almost always around, super friendly (so is everyone I've spoken to on there), always seems happy to answer questions people have & just chat with us about various things.

2023-03-22 23:50:30 +0000 UTCThanks once again, Vortex. I guess I wasn't clear with the answers. I wanted to give it a bit of humor, to avoid the impression I was whining, but it backfired as there have been a couple of players who didn't understand it. You know my English sometimes go on vacation and leaves me with messes like this π

2023-03-22 23:43:18 +0000 UTCThanks, Edward, and sorry for the misunderstanding.
Tropecita Games
2023-03-22 23:39:40 +0000 UTCsorry, thought it meant to post less, not flood my inbox lol. You are doing awesome though :)
Vortex
2023-03-22 23:27:13 +0000 UTCI was saying that I am happy with your current posting rate and donβt need you to increase or decrease your posting rate. The choices in the poll made it feel like that was what the two options were. If no is keep it the same then I guess I am a no.
Edward Wolchick
2023-03-22 23:24:06 +0000 UTCThanks, Dion, I try to post updates as soon as I have them ready. The average right now is 28 days per update. I think the players complaining in the exit poll were referring to wallpapers, teasers, and the like.

2023-03-22 23:07:52 +0000 UTCGracias, Landon
Tropecita Games
2023-03-22 23:05:09 +0000 UTCThanks, Michael, I'll take the lazy thing to heart and go cry in a corner. Oh, no, wait, I can't. I have to render Meemaw. π
Tropecita Games
2023-03-22 23:04:35 +0000 UTCThanks, Vortex, The doing fine is the second option, the "don't flood me even more" The question was if I should post more π€£
Tropecita Games
2023-03-22 23:01:01 +0000 UTCI think the players who answered that in the survey weren't meaning the update cycle but the number of other posts like wallpapers, teasers, etc. Splitting the updates (0.4, 0.7, and 0.9) has been done because they came out huge (24K, 26K, and 48K words; 1,103, 1,542, and 2,628 renders) so splitting in two looked like a good idea so you didn't have to wait for too long. Now reading this, I realize that what seemed huge in July is a regular update now!

Tropecita Games
2023-03-22 22:52:16 +0000 UTCThanks, BL4DE, You know that chatting with players/friends is one of my pleasures.
Tropecita Games
2023-03-22 22:51:49 +0000 UTCBasically, the options were Yes and No about if you think I should post more: Previews, Back in the Day images, Progress reports, etc. The lazy dev and the flood thing were a little joke. I'm every day on Discord (Tuesdays and Thursdays very little time because I'm at my office) and I answer every message I receive here. You are welcome to chat with me through both means.
Tropecita Games
2023-03-22 22:50:46 +0000 UTCYou don't want to see the content not published. It's horrendous for the most part. I have some test renders from when I was still designing the characters. I'll do another Back on the Day post in some days. You'll invent the time machine to go back into the past and kill me.
Tropecita Games
2023-03-22 22:46:29 +0000 UTCNow I'm goin to say post more you lazy but just so I can take out my frustration on to days that post maybe once a month but you my friend post fine not to much not to little
Dion Hyden
2023-03-22 21:47:42 +0000 UTClo estas haciendo perfectamente
Landon
2023-03-22 21:25:23 +0000 UTCI don't really think you need to do more, but I couldn't resist calling you lazy ^_^
Michael O.
2023-03-22 20:59:29 +0000 UTCyou should have added a "you are doing fine" choice. I think you are doing fine with posting.
Vortex
2023-03-22 20:46:00 +0000 UTCI personally think how you are posting now is better as you split the game updates into 2 updates which is I'd say is better because it gives time to catch bugs/messed up wording also your doing a great job giving us the updates at a reasonable time period and you shouldn't rush your work
Assassions66
2023-03-22 20:26:31 +0000 UTCI also think what you do is fine, doesn't need to be more or less.
Blkcrow820
2023-03-22 20:18:05 +0000 UTCThe "Wasn't as active as I expected" is an idiot excuse. You are active way more than once a month like some other devs are that only post wallpapers and/or teasers. Plus you are active on the discord. Don't listen to morons.
BL4DE
2023-03-22 20:12:39 +0000 UTCNo complaints here. Keep on truckin'.
Fizzlewicket
2023-03-22 20:06:52 +0000 UTCI canβt vote here because I donβt agree with either choice. I second that you are doing fine as is and if you want to chat more I will note object but it is not needed
Edward Wolchick
2023-03-22 20:06:32 +0000 UTCIn my opinion the posting and release frequency is absolutly ok. If you have bonus contend "laying aroumd" please don't hesitate to post it. But don't allocate more recources in that direction. Your doing a rather fine job imho.

2023-03-22 20:04:56 +0000 UTCMaybe Once a Week?, or once every 2 weeks.
