OK, so a few changes again.

First of all a thanks for your patience with me and if you want to read what changes, scroll to the bottom of this post.

A bit of explanation though. Why all these changes about game access. Well, it;s a complicated topic, so I'm going to go a bit into detail.

What I have to manage, is my time and energy, what I want to give to you and of course, trying to protect myself from people who just want to grab something for cheap..

As you know, I've tried a couple things in the past and saw what works out, what doesn't. Finding a balance isn't the easiest, but I think I found something now.

So what changes?

First of all, the reward will be game specific now. So keys/access will be for Crysalis alone. Once new games are in development, they will follow the same cycle.

That cycle will be, that I setup itch access through Patreon (have an itch account and a Patreon account, link both and claim the game).

As the game develops, I will raise the price, that is required to unlock it.

So, right now, it unlocks at the 3EUR tier, then once more stuff is added, at the 5EUR tier, eventually 10EUR and then it will be released. So the later you join in and get more features ready made, the more you have to pay.

I think that's a good balance, between giving out access, ease of use for me and protection.

What about steam?

Steam doesn't offer the Patreon integration (at least as far as I know), so it will work differently.

Steam keys will be given out closer to actual release and everyone who got access to itch, will get a steam key as well. How to propagate those, I will decide, once that time comes.

But I don't have an itch account/don't like the platform!

Fair enough!

I will post prototypes and other WIPs here as usual. Just look in the #prototype tag and you'll find them.

Itch just offers easier management, through their app.

Where do I find access?

I make a dedicated post, with instructions, and pin it for future reference.
