Patreon Update.

Last week I let you all know about some changes I will be making to the Patreon welcome page, Goals and the Support Tier rewards.

You will probably already notice the banner at the top of this page has changed. This is the first part to have a graphical uplift, the next will be the tiers and reward goals. I have detailed my plans for the goals below so you can have an idea of what aspects will be changing.

I want to re-assure you all that I do not plan to remove any rewards from the tiers, only boost them to something more meaningful in the hopes that they will be attractive to supporters.

Changes to the Goals:

• 50 – I will produce a series of high-resolution desktop wallpapers for all existing and future supporters. These will feature Louise, Kimiko and Elise.
  
• 100 – I will be able to upgrade my GPU / PC, which will enable me to produce scenes and images quicker, further speeding up the development cycle.
  
• 250 – I will purchase a second PC, this will be used as a dedicated animation rendering rig, allowing me to improve the animations I produce.
  
• 300 - With the increased performance from a second PC I will design and produce a yearly calendar that will be available to supporters. This will be in a digital format (but can be printed).
  
• 500 – Community event – Design a lewd scene, polls will be held for the girl, clothing and sexual positions.
  
• 1000 – All previous animations will be redone and improved to a much higher standard and fidelity.
  
• 1500 - I will investigate having the calendars printed by a company and physically shipped out to supporters - This may end up being unfeasible.
  
• 2500 – I will write an in-game walkthrough that is available for supporters only. This will be an overlay to the game.
  
• 3500 – If this goal is reached, I will be able to devote all my time to creating the game and other aspects. I will quit my job and work on this full time.
  
• 4500 – Commercial music, I will begin improving the music used in the game and purchase commercial music. I will also be able to commission artists to create new and unique music exclusively for Dreams of Reality.
  
• 5000 – I will upgrade all existing PC’s and build a 3rd. This will further increase the production, reducing the development time further.
  
• 5500 – I will look at hiring another Artist to work with me.
  
• 6000 – Community event 2, We will design a love interest for my next game. This will be completely community driven, including backstory and character traits.

These are subject to change, but I feel these rewards more closely reflect the type of achievement each milestone is. I'll post up the Tier changes next week.

I will not be updating the goals for a few days yet, but if we somehow cross 50 supporters before then I will honour the first goal at 50 and not 100. The tier changes will become active next month, I will post information on those next week.

I will also be updating the 'welcome' screen and post during the next few days so keep an eye out for that. Tomorrow will be the usual development update. I value your feedback, if you have any comments, good or bad about the goals let me know.

For now, stay safe all.
