Patreon Campaign Changes - Survey Results
🕑 Added 2016-07-03 03:35:19 +0000 UTC Hey guys!If you remember I posted a survey in the last post asking for your opinions on the proposed Patreon campaign format changes. If you didn't see that post, please check it out here and go over it before reading further! I also posted a survey in multiple places asking for non patrons' feedback to gauge whether they would be more or less interested in pledging based on the proposed reduction in pledge tier amounts.
You can find the results of the surveys below:
The patron survey results speak for themselves, with nearly 90% of those that responded recommending we change our campaign format to monthly (with the reduced pledge tier costs) + add the charge up front feature.
The non patron survey results take a bit more analyzing. Basically, approximately half of the non patrons that responded said they would be more likely to pledge to the campaign if it was in the monthly format with the reduced pledge costs. Though the sample size is small, it's a very promising result since very few answered that they were less likely to pledge due to the proposed changes. What this says is that for every 20 non patrons that check out the project, approximately 10 will be more likely to pledge because of these changes, and approximately only 1 will be less likely.
As it stands and due to the highly positive feedback, we've decided that we will be making the proposed changes starting sometime after the V0.05 release. The campaign changes will not affect the V0.05 release, so please do not change your pledge amount until instructed to do so! I'll send messages out when we make the switch so that you can adjust your pledge amounts accordingly to the new rewards. This means that starting sometime after the V0.05 release all pledge tier costs will be significantly reduced and we will be moving to the monthly payment format. The first payment at the new pledge tier prices will be at the beginning of the month after we make the switch.
For those patrons that don't find this as good news, remember that there's only a negative aspect to this new format if you feel that we can't put out content at the rate we've been doing so up to this point. Not only do we feel we can do that, but we have every intention of increasing the speed at which we can put out content (hence why we just brought a new artist on full time and want to bring on more members). I urge you to stick around and see that we run things with the same regard to responsibility that we have up to this point!
Thanks again for all the feedback guys!

Personally you guys have a great project here. I have seen many Jrpg's on steam but nothing with this much effort or drive in it. You guys have litterally done what I believed to be the impossible a story driven HJRPG that balances both worlds and doest feel only like its focused on one side with just a minimal story. its intresting and replayable, which is really important. Although this new campaign makes me somewhat nervous Those fears will probally be put aside when the new content comes out in the future. Projects like this are not free and paying the licenses for your programs is costly I actually looked up maya, Daz 3d, photo shop and yea its not cheap. I just hope your game gets the attention it deserves and all the support it can handle. Keep up the amazing work and effort you have been always.
Really glad to hear! You guys need steady income, to allow you the time and resources to work more on it! I want this game last month D:
