Should I Pause Charges During the First Months of Child's Birth?
Added 2021-08-02 19:16:49 +0000 UTCHello Folks!
The title says it all, should I pause charges for the patreon during the first couple of months of our child's life as we will most likely be too busy for our usual scheduled updates each week. As time goes on I may have more time to myself to work on things but I anticipate the first couple of weeks/months will be a bit restless.
The alternative is also just having patrons stop backing me as well if you do not want to be charged during the more low key months with updates.
Please feel free to comment as the last time I brought this up I only got a few responses related to it.

And congratulations!

2021-08-10 09:38:23 +0000 UTCGo knock that parenthood thingy out of the park! Although... I second the wip build if possible. No pressure though. Go take care of what’s precious. Kiddo comes first.
2021-08-10 09:36:27 +0000 UTCYour pledge is only 1$ for what is arguably one of the best niche game projects out there. We love and support you, and I think I speak for more than a few of us when I say we’re lucky to have you!

2021-08-03 19:38:49 +0000 UTCI'm hoping to get the WIP/Debug room finished before they are born so people can at least get a preview for what is to come with everything finished so far.

2021-08-03 17:45:23 +0000 UTCYou've always been very attentive to your work, and put in far more time than pretty much any other developer I've encountered in a long time. Even if absolutely nothing happens for awhile, you're still ahead of the game, and my money still supports a good cause. Enjoy babby, and be sure to take care of yourself just as much as you take care of the family while away!

2021-08-02 21:39:52 +0000 UTCYou ask 1 dollar for access to your content and that number is already a tad bit low seeing the amount of work/quality you put into the game. I'd say keep the pledges rolling; if people don't want to support you during this period they can always come back on a later date when you start posting again.

2021-08-02 20:21:32 +0000 UTCCongratz, children are a gift and deserve everything you can give them (in moderation :P) so i say keep charging, as John Doe said: If people want to stop pledging and then return later they have that option.
2021-08-02 19:34:49 +0000 UTCAs long as you give your paetrons a heads up before hand I think its perfectly okay to charge people while on hiatus. If people want to stop pledging and then return later they have that option. That being said, I'm going to continue to give my support.

2021-08-02 19:23:44 +0000 UTCCongratulations for being a father! Keep the charges going on - for me it would be a pleasure to help you with your child's expenses. I am a great fan of your work Ank, and sometimes you need to rest and enjoy your life a bit. I am supporting you on both scenarios. Thank you for everything you do!
