Ok, so. I read your bsky post, I read this, I downloaded the "core", I get the joke. It is, quite honestly, a funny joke. I was a little pissed when I firstdonloaded the game, because it was exactly what I expected. But, I can appreciate the joke now. However, you have a paid version, which judgsing by the fact you said on bsky "oh no someone paid money for this", like, genuinely, should you have a paid version? Is it worth the joke to part someone of 3 bucks they could have used for a coffee, or another game, or such, if you say "oh no"? Again, the baseline joke is funny. But please reconsider having a paid versi0n if you say "oh no" when someone buys it, just as like, a person to person thing. I'm not mad with this, 9r trying to yell at you, but like, come on, you have to consider these things.
Thank you for commenting! I appreciate where you’re coming from. The paid version is more detailed and includes sort of a word-by-word deep dive of structuring plots that did take a few thoughtful hours of work and refinement and layout. There is content there I do believe is of value and interest comparable to buying a can of soda. I worked after making it to pare back to the free micro version.
I’m working on launching my own website, and this will include updates to my model. The two will be separated into different product listings. I won’t be able to have pay-what-you-want anymore. For all games, I will have SRDs or sample version that are just free; fuller paid releases at a set price; and then a separate donation or subscription space.
You know what, that is fair. If that is what the actual paid content is, yeah I'd agree that's worth a coke. I don't currently have the cash, I'm strapped aa fuck lmao, but when I do, I'll get around to getting you a pop and look over the writeup. I'm curious as to your advice and methods in the writeup. I enjoy daydreaming a lot, so. And thank you for recognizing I wasn't coming at this from a malicous angle, however, reading back I think I may have come off a little too harsh. Best kf luck to your creative endevours!
