Monthly Thanks Message #12

Hello, my beautiful patrons!  How are you all doing today?!

I'm here as always, to thank you all for your support in the game. This month I had 28 active patrons. That means the world to me.

First of all, I want to say thank you for all the patrons that couldn't stay on higher tiers but decided to continue helping me with the Starter Tier of 3 bucks. Guys, you have no idea how much this helps me. Every time a person continues helping no matter the tier they're into it helps me a lot. But every time you guys continue helping and just have to switch to a smaller tier, it just shows you still believe and want the project done. That fills me with the hope that this project is actually good.

How many times have I thought that my game is not worth your time or that I'm not good enough and there are better projects over there to help?

But here you all are, from tier 1 to tier 4, helping me again and again and again.

Thank you so much.

My Tier 4 patrons: This tier is a tier for those who REALLY believe in my game and want it so bad to help me and make this game to continue existing. It's because of you that sometimes I'm not feeling a heavy hit when more than 4 or 6 patrons have to leave because of financial problems, which is understandable of course. But I want to say thank you for you two, that extra help you're doing just made my month a little easier and my heart a little less heavy whenever I need to pay the bills! Thank you!

My Tier 3 Patrons; you guys are the original highest tier of this patron. I give you all high-quality art, sometimes I make some pools that can decide what you guys wanna see on the game first, and directions for themes of upcoming games. This last one is quite early for me to be talking, and the previous one is not used too much since the direction the game should take is clear to me. However this next month I'll be asking something on a new pool for you guys, just in relation to the next Day 4, I'm still in doubt if I should write it or if I should start the route for the new character. There are some issues surrounding it and I will be speaking of it in the upcoming months for you guys. Even if I can't give you guys too much you're here, helping me. Thank you so much. 

To my tier 2 Patrons:

Thank you so much for your support. You guys originally would get concept arts for the game, but ever since the artist started drawing without sketches, those became impossible, instead today you receive a smaller version with less quality preview of the art it's released for the game. You guys are also the tier that unlocks the alphas for test and play, and of course, you guys are the majority of my patrons usually.  Thank you all for your support. It's not possible for me to post a new alpha every month with content unless you guys want smaller changes on the UI that doesn't interfere with content at all, I think that's kinda shallow so I don't do it. Even so, you guys are here waiting for more and help me. Thank you so much.

To my tier 3 patrons again, you guys are here, some of you came from higher tiers, some of you are helping as this tier members since a long time just because you want to help. To all of you, thank you so much.

If anyone wants this game to be done, and cannot help a lot, this tier was created usually to this purpose. You will always have your name in the credits forever just by helping once with this tier, but you will also have my gratitude forever just for sticking more than a month in this tier, because like I say for every patron here: Your help, big or small, just give me hope that this game can exist and can be good.

It's a dream to finish it, a dream to sell it one day on Steam (and of course, to give every one of you who's here helping for all this time your free copy) and you all, including the tier 1 patrons, are responsible for making this dream to be true.  Thank you so much. 

You know, making a game is not an easy feat. Some people who never worked with Game Developing think that a Visual Novel is nothing more than Images and Text running and that should be so easy and fast to do. But most Visual Novels over there has a big team working it, usually, they're using a software that was created to design a Visual Novel because it's the easier route, and so on and so on.  I have this patreon for a long time now, but I'm working on this game for two years prior to this patreon release. The story, the concept, the engine, everything took so much time to develop. And it still does. But It's thanks to your belief in me and in this project that instead of going out of my home to work on things unrelated to this game I can focus on it way more.  I'm not making what I need monthly to both pay my bills and invest in the game but I'm making enough that I'm able to at least for now, work only on this game, and that's a gift you all give me. 

Let us continue aiming for greater things, and making this game becoming a reality. If you ever find someone who's interested in helping this project, don't forget to send them the link for this patreon page! 

Don't forget to follow me on twitter @yekkusu, I usually post lots of things about the development of the game there, from prints from Scrivener to prints of new designs for the UI and programming stuff for the game. I also always warn people there when there's a new post here with content, being it a new alpha or artwork. 

Thank you all for your help and support. You guys make it possible for me to work on this game and make it possible for me to survive as well. That may sound extreme, but it's the truth. Thank you all for your unconditional help. You all are important to me.

Thank you.
