A good week- added another 65+ images.
Next week's work involves a particular environment with a slow render time, so fingers crossed it doesn't hold me up too much.
On schedule for early release on Aug 3rd.
Piracy Update
A big 'thank you' to everyone cooperating with the 'no piracy' request. As a result we have smashed the previous record for the number of Patrons. (the previous record was set when the game wasn't pirated for 12 days).
Since the beginning of the month the number of Patrons has grown by 50% (so far)! To put this in context, it always grows and then shrinks by 20% because many Patrons dip in and out.
Any pirate who claims that pirates 'help' games by advertising and encouraging uptake, is talking nonsense. Some of you will have noticed me advertising my own game, without using contraband material.
The game continues to have a free public version and a fast turnaround for updates (1 month) which I truly believe should be more than acceptable to non-Patron fans.
For me personally, the biggest win is not feeling a fraud; getting money from Patrons for early release then see others take it for free made me too uncomfortable. I hope you share my optimism for the future.
