You, in my upcoming mini-game?

My new mini-game about the media & its feedback loops is coming out in a few weeks! And I want to thank you. Only with your support and encouragement, could I explore systems & stories like this. So to thank you, here's them Patron Rewards!

$10+ Reward: You (or some other character of your choice) gets drawn as a peep, and put in the credits of the game! I'll send you an email later today from n@ncase.me asking for a reference pic or description – check yo' spam folder, just in case.

$2+ Reward: Your name gets put in the credits of the game! Please double-check that your Patreon name is the one you want credited. (And if you're already pledging $2+ but haven't selected the Reward, please do so, so I know!)

And for everyone else, pledging or not-pledging, you're all still awesome! It really means a lot to me that so many peeps care about the silly and/or serious stuff I make.

I'm sorry that the OpenNews Fellowship I'm part of has been eating much more of my free time than I expected, and – this is my fault alone – I haven't released any big projects since January. (Also, the interactive explainer I was making with PBS Frontline? Yeah... apparently that's never getting published. Understandably, simulations and computational models are way outside what their editorial review was meant for.)

So, to put my own butt to the fire, I'm gonna make a public commitment right here, right now:

FROM NOW ON, I'LL PUBLISH ONE INTERACTIVE THING A MONTH.

They may be super-small interactives like Sight & Light and The Magnificent 2D Matrix, or medium-sized projects like Parable of the Polygons and Neurotic Neurons, or way-too-colossal-for-its-own-good projects like Simulating The World In Emoji.

In any case, I would feel better getting into a habit of shipping something once a month. And I'd be living up to my promise to you, dear friends and supporters. Thank you. :)

P.S: AH, PATREON'S RICH-TEXT EDITOR STILL SURE IS UTTER CRAP
