Hello there !

Today is a good say for a new Devblog and a poll !

I've got a lot going in my plate lately, and I've got to focus my efforts on something.

Over the last 3 month, Patreon growth has been close to null, I think in 3 month I've got 3 new patrons, and I have to be honest, it takes it's toll on the moral.

Of course I'm not the best dev out here, hell far from it I'd say that due to my shaky release sizes and unpredictable releases it might be hard for someone to sit here and say "Yeah I'll hand that french lad a few bucks each month for being inconsistant."

Honestly you as a content creator when you notice these major drops, you can't help but feel a bit depressed by the crushing reality that you might not have the safest of incomes be it for a handfull of month, or for the rest of your dev career.

So I feel like it's a good time to interact directly with my community.

What do my players want to see from me.

Faster releases ?

Bigger releases ?

Perhaps more infos about Project Jericho ?

Hell how about a Project Jericho Alpha followed by a public build down in reasonable delay ?

Or perhaps you'd prefer having a bit more art like the one I did a few days back while waiting for a public release ?

Honestly, I want you guys to enjoy my work, I want people to feel satisfied when they pledge, or when they talk about my projects, and while I've not always been the best fella to talk about, I feel like it's never too late to fix the broken pots and get back to it.

So I ask you fancy fella from the Stronk brotherhood, what is it you'd prefer seeing from me.

On the other end of the spectrum I also want to know if I disappointed you.

Or to rephrase it, what could I improve, I know that I could first and foremost post regular and sizeable stuff, but I'm the kind of lad that works a lot from positive reinforcement, people encouraging me is what pushes me to my workstation, it is what pushes me to work instead of watching the same Revengeance Status for the 12th time.

Anything that you feel could be good feedback, I want to hear it good or bad.

I'll open up a poll and check the result every now and then to get myself an idea of what I should focus in the coming weeks.

You can vote for multiple option and from there I'll ladder everything up and make a list of priorities.

Take care brothers and have an amazing week !

And thank you once again for being an amazing community.
