Re: [Toffisama] Amazon Brawl
And you should also keep in mind that I'm not offering any real content for the money I get on Patreon, at least not directly. The two times I actually uploaded exclusive content on Patreon I saw a siginificant spike in pledges.
If I had put Amazon Brawl or any other game completely behind a paywall (even temporarily), my Patreon page would look pretty different, I'm sure.
But that's something I don't want to do. I'm planning to take some time off now and I don't want people sharpening their pitchforks and lighting their torches because I'm not doing enough for the money I get. No, no, it's fine the way it is. If I'm not doing anything now and people demand more content faster, I can say "Fuck you!" with a clear conscience. If I had a business through Patreon, I couldn't.
Hey, thanks for nice words. I appreciate it.I really like the attitude of the guy.
Instead of asking for Thousands dollar on patreon for his game he sees it as a hobby and still works hard for it. Finally he releases stuff for free.... i wish people would learn from him.
Really the exception around here and not another one of those groups/people who want CASH for their first fucking game they release without ever finishing a single game before that.
Worst thing is that those bafoons usually get a few thousand dollars a month and this guy who does everything for free gets nothing :/ support him if you can.
I don't think it has to do with the genre. I have often stressed that I'm doing this stuff as a hobby and Patreon is an alternative way to donate. So obviously people don't feel an obligation to pay me money.erobotan said:The only thing that i can learn is that beat'em up is a dead genre. Toffi is famous, super famous, everyone knows him .. but why the hell his patreon only has 250$? All of those hard work making free games just doesn't pay off ..
I really thank God that Toffi doesn't seem to have financial problem otherwise he's going to be in trouble with this meager support ..
