I have a question for the developer is this going to be again a sadly pretty often "Free on the beginning but then full release pay money" game or can i have hope and find an amazing game that will be fully for free i can understand you putting time into and you also having to pay bills i think but you can dream can't ya (Don't wanna be disrespectful or any it's fully understandable when ya want money so sorry if that sounded rude or so didn't mean to)
The story and such would be completely free, that's my goal, if i include a payment, I'd be maybe for side comics, wips, etc etc etc.Ideally most people will like the story, and a few of those will then choose to try and support me through other means.
But yes, i want it to be free, the only situation i can imagine it not being free is if there's something really wrong and i need as much help as possible financially, but even then, i'd go back and make it free the moment i don't need that urgent help anymore. For me, i don't see this project being locked behind a paywall as something that could benefit me, the goal is just to share this story i have, yes im putting a lot of effort and time on it, but it's just because i want to try something with this medium, not because im seeking money out of this project. Obviously i like money, so when it gets out and if people like it, don't hesitate to help, and i would prefer to receive those donations after it actually gets out haha. As much as i appreciate the money i've received so far from just this demo, it's making the pressure greater and more stressful for me, hence why i've been pausing my patreon for a year now, so that i don't get crushed by the pressure it adds on my shoulder. I do hope to eventually feel ready to unpause it at some point though!
