Patreon March 2021 Roadmap

Hi everyone! A little update with regard to what's in the works for the Patreon this month.

All patrons - The next demo for A Mage Reborn will be out sometime in late March--I'm not comfortable giving out a fixed date yet, but I'll definitely keep you posted once I have it. Until then, progress report days are on Saturdays (GMT +7, which is the timezone I'm in).

Progress reports will give, at minimum, an update on the wordcount and one or two paragraphs discussing what I've done so far. Most times, they will also include a devlog! I will still be posting some devlogs over on Tumblr, but the majority of it will be Patreon-exclusive.

Not technically part of March, but we'll be conducting the Patreon-exclusive short story raffle on April 1st. All patrons up until March 31st will have their names automatically entered into the raffle--if you would not like yours to be, please let me know!

Retainers - Sneak peeks will be released periodically during the run-up to the release, most likely at the same time as the progress reports. If we reach the $100 marker, I will also begin writing side stories, which will most likely go up towards the end of March as I'll prioritize hunting errors and working on the next demo when I can.

Arcanists - We hit the $50 goal! This means that we'll begin commissioning portraits for the characters. The artist I'm in talks with is quite busy, so they can't do the portraits all at once--we'll have to prioritize. I'll be releasing a Portrait Poll soon, which will determine the order in which characters get their portraits.

The game guide is currently in the works, and I'll begin working on it in earnest once I finish hunting down errors with the current build. It will be a barebones .docx file to start with, but I'll keep refining it as we go along. Ideally the finished product will be a .pdf file that's both informative and easy on the eyes.

Lastly, side story requests will open if we hit the $100 mark, and shortly afterwards an Arcanist-exclusive poll to rank the submitted prompts. The winning request will be the March 2021 side story available to all patrons at tiers Retainer and higher.

Please feel free to ask me any questions in the meantime. Thank you for joining me on this journey!
