SubscribeStar Goal for Pure Onyx!
Added 2022-02-02 11:03:22 +0000 UTCHey guys!
I've posted a goal on our SubscribeStar (right side) that I think will interest many of you :D.
$13,666! That's the magic number folks. If we can reach this number on SubscribeStar I can say with 100% certainty we can migrate Pure Onyx fully off of Patreon and therefore manage our own content.
Obviously, this number is not purely scientific -- there is leeway, especially pending your reaction to the following >.>
If we accomplish the above goal, then we will convert this Patreon campaign into a rule 34 project/series (not a game) that will feature animations and cinematic H scenes of popular game and hentai characters using our own custom models. Essentially Pure Onyx-style loops, tentacles, and all of that fun stuff, but featuring characters that you can vote on. It will utilize the cinematic mode framework from PO, but will be an altogether different project that won't utilize the Eromancer name, and will thus be in compliance with Patreon guidelines.
If you're skeptical as to how we would accomplish this -- we have a big and efficient character pipeline now, and our modelers are already well ahead of characters being integrated into Pure Onyx. This is doable!
Let me know what you guys think. If you aren't able to use SubscribeStar due to lack of PayPal support and you aren't interested in the above idea, we will come up with something :D. It's worth mentioning that Pure Onyx is available on itch.io, which does accept PayPal. If we were to migrate Pure Onyx off of Patreon then the content would also be updated to reflect that on itch.io.
In the meantime, business as usual, but I'm optimistic that this will encourage some of you to join us over there ^-^.
Comments
didn't know that onyx was available on itch.io.. solves my issue, great job on taking "criticism" and feedback and then turning it in to these solutions. Honestly a great job.
2022-02-09 20:08:26 +0000 UTCSo switching to Subscribestar ... Done! Good bye Patreon.

2022-02-08 16:44:03 +0000 UTCI closed my patreon and mirate to fanbox instead of subscribe star Just because of that (PayPal)
2022-02-05 14:35:57 +0000 UTCThis is going to be my last comment here, as I've moved to Subscribestar. Please move. Patreon is overstepping its bounds, and it must be shown the error of its ways. This kind of thing has gone on for some time now. Someone doesn't agree with the content that's being created. They are in a position of authority, and they abuse that authority to reign in the creator. The internet should be open and free to those who want to use it. It should be a forum of ideas and opinions not shared by everyone in equal measure. Moderation should only be applied when it causes harm to others. If you agree with those statements above, then you don't agree with Patreon. Moving platforms will make a difference in whether games like Pure Onyx are available to us in the future, or files archived only on the dark net.

2022-02-04 19:24:58 +0000 UTCWell, it's all conditional as to whether our funding off of Patreon picks up enough to allow it, and whether or not people are into this rule 34 thing we are starting up. But yeah, if possible, MATM would be funded off of Patreon for the same reasons as PO.
2022-02-03 21:31:23 +0000 UTCQuick question is the Malise and the Machine project also moving to SubscribeStar?
2022-02-03 20:38:02 +0000 UTC:D ah okay ty then I shall next month good luck.

2022-02-03 08:49:11 +0000 UTCSo, we may start a Pixiv Fanbox campaign -- would be a great option for those of you who aren't able to use SubscribeStar. Fanbox accepts PayPal, but is a little more limited in terms of features. Still, could be a good option.
2022-02-03 08:06:49 +0000 UTCThat's correct! That's why we would convert this Patreon page to be a home for our rule 34 series, dissociated from Eromancer.
2022-02-03 06:22:34 +0000 UTCI heard hearsay in the past that patreon also polices content outside its own site, if you're ready to fully migrate when the goal hits I guess it wouldn't make a difference. Just some info for your future plans

2022-02-03 04:33:47 +0000 UTCBest option to avoid that is to switch over at the end of the month :D. Reaching that goal won't be immediate -- and we'd need to get content together for the R34 stuff too.
2022-02-03 02:07:25 +0000 UTCive made the switch
Netharius
2022-02-02 23:34:01 +0000 UTCDo we have to pay our monthly pledge again if we switch over there? I have paid my pledge this month here.

2022-02-02 23:20:04 +0000 UTCYep, SubStar benefits match Patreon identically ^-^.
2022-02-02 21:39:00 +0000 UTCNo problem, your support here is appreciated :3!
2022-02-02 21:36:57 +0000 UTCIf it plays right, this sounds like great news and I'm glad you're making this move. If the subscribe star allows me to get the same benefits I do now, but encourage moving off of patreon, I'll fully support it. The other project also sounds quite interesting. Lots of new characters in your style would be very interesting.

2022-02-02 21:26:20 +0000 UTCi will not go to subscribestar

2022-02-02 20:58:35 +0000 UTCAh you misread -- Pure Onyx is a game of course -- we're not changing that :D. We'd simply be converting this Patreon page to a new series of H animations and content, and moving Pure Onyx off the site so that we can manage its content on our own.
2022-02-02 20:23:12 +0000 UTCI honestly don't like the sound of this becoming a "project" rather than a game. I'd rather you guys focus on expanding the game fully and actually making a fun game that has H-scenes then for you guys to become essentially another animation viewer. I liked this project because it was trying to make a GAME.

2022-02-02 20:09:39 +0000 UTCDefinitely need to investigate when I'm not at work. Haha. I wanna push you guys over to a platform that allows for the original vision of the game for sure without censorship getting in the way.
