Hey guys! I finished the core of the voting system!

I used AI to help me build it, and honestly... I can't believe how insanely good AI models have become. Of course, I supervised everything, so I wasn’t blindly generating code—but still, vibe coding is kind of crazy.

I definitely want to test this more for future game dev too.

⚠️ Important Note

These changes are not live yet.

I’m planning to update the website next week after some performance testing and security checks, to make sure everything works properly.

If you have suggestions or questions, drop them in the Discord channel so we can all discuss them together.

🔐 Patreon Login System

I implemented official Patreon OAuth login.

How it works:

Log in with your Patreon account

Accept Patreon permissions

Automatically register/login on the website

Your Patreon tier is synced automatically

Important:

Free Patreon members can log in too and vote.

For now, only paid tier members can submit ideas.

So basically, anyone on Patreon can join the system. I’m planning to add Discord and X login support later.

🗳️ Voting System

Once logged in, you’ll be able to:

Submit ideas (Only Patreon members with an active tier for now)

Vote on ideas

Participate in every voting cycle

🔄 What is a Vote Cycle?

A vote cycle is the full process of:

Idea submission

Community voting

Winner selection

Standard duration: 24 hours

After the cycle ends:

The winner is automatically selected

I start creating the winning comic

New cycle opens after 24–48 hours (depending on production time)

Everything is automated. The website literally just tells me the winner LOL.

💡 Idea Submission

When a vote cycle is active:

Patreon Tier Members can:

Submit ideas or save drafts

Edit before posting

Submit anonymously

Free Patreon Members can:

Vote only

How to submit:

Go to your dashboard

Click “Add My Idea”

Fill out the form

Save draft or submit

Your idea will then appear anonymously in the public idea list.

🏆 Voting

During active cycles, everyone can vote on submitted ideas.

Vote Power:

Your Patreon tier determines your vote weight.

Extra feature:

You can change your vote one time only if you change your mind.

So use it wisely 😆

Winner Selection:

When the timer hits zero:

Most voted idea wins

Tie = first submitted idea wins

Then I get notified and start working on it.

🔁 Cycle Repeat

After the comic is completed, a new cycle opens.

New ideas are submitted

Community votes again

So comics will now be chosen directly by community decision.

🚀 Future Plans

Honestly, AI made this system WAY easier than expected.

Because of that, I’m considering adding:

More community minigames

Rewards for free images or comics

More interactive Patreon features

But first... I want to test this voting system properly.

💬 Final Message

I also created a Patreon Discord channel in the server, so be sure to join it!

Share your feedback, ideas, and opinions.

Because seriously... If nobody comments, I have no clue whether you all love it or hate it 🗿
