CRASH PANIC update, Badge Collection alternative poll

CRASH PANIC

Crash Panic is coming along on schedule, with multiple features — some of which were new ideas — and I'm really happy with where it's going, and I don't want to give away too much just yet. While I still got some models to texture, it's been right on schedule, so barring any unexpected delays, beta access should be available in about a week or two. Once the beta begins, I will be updating the game weekly, though keep in mind that some content will remain secret until the game's release!! Keep in mind that the beta isn't some early access nonsense — I will ACTIVELY be looking for input, not just bug reports. 


EMBLEMS AND THE BADGE COLLECTION

When I started this Patreon, I did NOT know what I was doing.  It was my first time running any sort of business and I was just spilling ideas and .fbx files and broken glass all over the floor. I had to cut rewards, streamline projects, etc, you couldn't even WALK into my Patreon without shoes. TERRIBLE.

I've learned a lot since I began, and there's one last thing that needs to address: The Badge Collection. Presently, I have not rescinded the Badge Collection, simply because I liked the idea. BUT THERE IS A FRUSTRATE!!! It's proving more time consuming than I could have imagined (creating them efficiently in a way that also has a poly count that doesn't run the web version of unity into the ground is a huge problem), and I really want to put all my focus into Crash Panic, so I was thinking maybe merging the two??? in the form of emblems?????


Rutt is customizable to a degree, with those changes appearing on the character themselves as well as next to high-scores. There's two advantages to these over badges:

  • As contributions stack, so do the number of emblems you can submit, be it higher contributions or just pledging multiple times in a row.
  • Unlike the badges, which would disappear if you removed your pledge, these'll stay in Crash Panic for frickin ever!!! 
  • All patrons pledging $5 or more will get to submit their own design, not just those at $10. If you pledged $10, you get two!!

  • Submit pretty much whatever as long as it matches the style of the emblems above (one color inside a basic shape). Use your FAVE SYMBOL or your OC or a BEACH BALL!!! I DON'T CARE!!! Pretty much if it won't get me in legal trouble, go right ahead!!


    Of course, if enough people would really prefer the badges, I won't take it away, so I'm leaving it to a vote, which you can cast here! The result will be made official in a week. Note that this is retro-active so if you were owed a badge, you will get to submit additional emblems. I will be drawing all of these myself, so don't worry about matching the style exactly!! Also, note that anyone can use the emblems you design.


    OTHER PROJECT STATUS

  • Push Palette — I am going to continue to mostly keep Push Palette's development a secret until Crash Panic is complete, but it is absolutely being worked on! I just want to make sure I have more than a couple place holder assets ready before I start showing off gameplay, y'know?
  • Undertale Red Ver 1.1 — The translation project is moving slowly, but surely. Undertale Red was not as all coded in a modular way, so I've essentially had to rip its guts out and replace them with SWEET NEW GUTS with NES CARTRIDGE SLOTS and SEQUINS. There are a still a number of bugs to sort. Plus, I've mostly been focused on Crash Panic and Palette, so I can't say I work on this super frequently.


  • Thank you all so much for your continued support!! Come close I will give you a kiss or twelve
