Changes to our patreon going forward

Some of you might've noticed we've changed up our Patreon membership about a week ago. Some of you might've not noticed it. Fear not, it's nothing too drastic, but here's what we changed:

Let's start by what was removed:

First of all, the Bronze tier. Unfortunately we had to remove you all from the game's credits. I have to put in all the names manually every time we update, and while it was fine when we used to have just 100 patrons, we've now surpassed 300 and it's become too hard to maintain.

Silver tier, Gold tier, and Diamond tier... you all have lost absolutely nothing, worry not.

Now, onto what was added:

Firstly, we've added the Demon King tier! A 50$ membership which grants whoever gets it the privilege of requesting a single h-scene with any of the characters currently in game. We'll accept any request (that doesn't go against Patreon or Itch.io's ToS) but the way it'll be implemented in game will be up to us. We might make it a canon scene, we might make it an extra scene, or we might make it a dream sequence.

The old Diamond tier is now called "Legacy Diamond."  We now have a new Diamond tier priced 20$ with three new rewards!

• Receiving previews of h-scenes from the next update,
• Appearing inside the game itself either on the quest board on a note or around the quest board on a small graffiti,
• And having your name in the front credits, as the last splash screen. (We've decided to give this new reward to our Legacy Diamond patrons as well)

After that, we've decided to keep you Patrons more up to date, so from now on:

• Bronze-tier patrons and up will be able to read the monthly devlog (starting from next month onwards, we'll make a monthly post detailing what we've worked on that month)
• Silver-tier patrons and up will receive monthly updates on some of the art we've made that month (we'll keep some of it as a surprise for when the route comes out)

Lastly, we've decided to spice things up a little by drawing an illustration each month for everyone to see to keep everyone engaged, and to accompany the devlogs. Gold-patrons and up will be able to vote on a poll which characters they want to be featured in the monthly illustration!

Oh, and another thing. We've realized that having polls every 6 months isn't really the best way to give value to your money, so we've decided we'll have a poll for both Major Updates (by voting on which character gets a route next) and Minor Updates (by voting on something we should add, fix, or rework) (edited)

P.S. the Legacy Diamond tier is limited. This means no new patrons can get that membership. We've decided to do this as a way to slowly phase out the old Diamond tier in favor of the new one as our current Diamond (Legacy) either upgrade or downgrade their subscription (we won't take it away as long as you keep your membership, don't worry)
