A Comprehensive Breakdown of the Tier Bonuses

First a heads up! I recently added a new version of "early-access" to the Copper Tier, so let's break that down first.

While early-access was put on hold for Chapters Two & Three, it normally works like this: whenever a chapter of the game is completed, it enters the testing phase. This process not only helps me with quality assurance before releasing new updates to the public... but it makes it so Patrons who love the game don't have to wait an extra 7-10 days to play.

> Test copies(pre-alpha) can be requested by the Gold Tier.
> The Silver Tier gets the game immediately after initial testing is completed (alpha).
> I'll begin collecting additional, minor bug reports & feedback.
> Two days later, the game becomes available to the Copper Tier (beta).
> Three days after this, the game becomes available to all patrons.

Next, let's talk about "Patreon exclusive content."

When you join the Bronze Tier or higher, you automatically gain access to...

> NSFW content that can't be posted publicly.
> Images and videos (videos coming soon).
> Polls/Questionnaires that influence the game.
> Most news, development updates, and devlogs.

When you join the Copper Tier or higher, you get all that, plus...

> The aforementioned 3-day early-access.
> A promotion on our very active Discord server.
> Access to monthly renders exclusive to the $5+ tiers.
> All news, development updates, posts, and devlogs.
> Your name featured on in-game credits as a "Patron."

When you join the Silver Tier or higher, you get all that too, plus...

> The aforementioned 5-day early-access.
> A double-promotion on our very active Discord server.
> Access to monthly renders exclusive to the $10+ tiers.
> Your name featured on in-game credits as a "Top Patron."

When you join the Gold Tier or higher, you get everything listed, plus...

> The aforementioned test-build access.
> A triple promotion on our very active Discord server.
> The exclusive "Gold" title on our Discord server.
> Access to monthly renders exclusive to the $25+ tiers.
> Can DM me details of two custom images I will create for them.

When you join the Diamond Tier or higher, you get everything listed, plus...

> The exclusive/rare "Diamond" and "Partner" titles on our Discord server.
> A custom, flashy Discord role & color which we will design/you can name.
> You'll be right at the top of all in-game credits and/or shouted out.
> Has triple the voting power in polls & your feedback is greatly valued.
> Access to exclusive, ultra-rare renders for the $45+ tiers.

Finally, let's talk about the "developer benefits" that come with your support.

For as long as I can remember, creating a video games has been my dream job. You're helping me fulfill that dream, and I am so incredibly grateful. To be more specific, though, your support is helping, or will help me to accomplish the following things...

> Faster updates so less waiting for the game.
> Can purchase better equipment for 3D engines & software.
> I'll be able to hire help, which will greatly increase production.
> I can send you guys physical rewards or merchandise.
> Can expand to other platforms, like Steam.
> Finally... your support will ensure I can continue making games.

So yeah. I can't say it enough: thank you... and I hope that this post serves the purpose it's intended to -- to help you guys better understand the way the tier system and benefits work here on my Patreon page. If you've any questions, DM me!
