Our Patreon page has had a couple of additions and an update today. Here's the lowdown:

New Relic on $50 Reward Tier
"Unique Patron Relic
$50 or more per month
Choose between two one-of-a-kind relics for Path / Blood of the Vampire.
Receive this reward when your total patron donation amount reaches $50 or more. Receive both when your total amount reaches $100 or more.
Relic 1: Patron's Pin (summon a banshee shopkeeper, allowing you to buy or sell your goods from anywhere, with the exception of the infinite labyrinth.)
Relic 2: Patron's Mirror (practice fight against any enemy in the game, whenever you want. No XP gain, but great for honing your tactics.)
Plus all previous rewards"

New Reward Tier: "Slave Dave"
"Slave Dave
$25 or more per month
At this tier or above, you get to tell David what to work on for 1 hour a week, every single week! This can be practically anything you want, as long as it's in keeping with the vision of the game(s). David basically becomes your *****.
David will message you at the start of each month to see where you'd like his time to be spent."

For Now, Primary Programming Focus is Now on Path Alone
While I am working on a nice surprise new project for you all which I think everyone here will love, Path is now the focus of the Patreon. Any money you pledge to the Patreon will mean more work on Path. The exception to this is if you're at the "Slave Dave" reward tier, which will mean you can get me to work on any project you like. [if you're interested in knowing more about the new project to help you decide if you'd like me to focus on that, PM me]


Side note: Josh and I are working on streamlining the chapters process in order to give you new story content and RP scenarios way more frequently, for free. More on this soon.

Just a sneak peek of what the new relic does.

Also this is probably a good place to say that we've decided to add 10 "free" hours at the start of each month to get the ball rolling on updates. Mostly they'll likely be used on bugs, but I'd imagine some would be put towards updates, such as the update that results from this forthcoming PVP war.

Additionally, we're going to carry forward the 1 hour of coding updates of our choice for every $10 worth of karma purchased. We're going to continue this indefinitely, because it worked really well this month. So while the Patreon "slave Dave" hours will get you more hours for your buck in total (and you get to choose where your hours go if you use Patreon), you should be aware that if you're spending money on the game it will go directly into funding more updates.
