Why CRED COGS Needed Patreon

Hello everyone,

I'm TSync, and I've been working on a cyberpunk-themed tabletop RPG called CRED COGS for a while now. The core of the game is complete, but there's one area where I'm lacking—artwork. I believe great illustrations can elevate the experience, but I don’t have the artistic skills to bring that vision to life. That’s why I’m turning to crowdfunding on Patreon—to raise funds to hire a talented artist and make CRED COGS the best it can be.

Some of you might wonder why I’m using Patreon instead of platforms like Kickstarter or BackerKit. Unfortunately, since I'm based in India, those platforms aren’t supported here. The underlying reason is likely the unfortunate association with fraud and bad actors from my region. I understand that trust can be a concern, which is why I’ve made the core rulebook of CREDCOGS available on itch.io. It’s under a Pay What You Want model, so you’re welcome to check it out for free if you'd like: CRED COGS on itch.io.

As for Patreon, I was initially planning to use Tiers as a way to track my goals, but it seems Patreon has removed that feature. Instead, I will be sharing posts to outline my goal tiers, and I'll provide regular updates on how far along I am in the funding process on a weekly basis. You only need to subscribe for one month to receive the Rule Book and other rewards for any higher tier, and you can cancel your subscription after the first month if you choose. My initial goal is to raise $2,000, which will go directly toward hiring an artist to illustrate the book. If there’s enough support, I have exciting plans, including a full story module and more content to expand the world of CRED COGS.

If you'd like to support this project and help bring it to life, please visit my Patreon page here:
