Feeling the pinch? (Patreon)

I've mentioned this before, but I got a really amazing message a year or so back from a guy in the Ukraine. He and his girlfriend had a pretty rough time because of the conflict there and he told me my silly "Dire Straits" gag with Mallory (Day 19) had really cheered them up and he sent me a hundred dollar gift card for Renderosity (which I put to good use)!

So while it's just a crazy game, it's nice to know that it really can make someone's life a little better.

Conversely, I've also heard from a couple of people who have been impacted by hurricanes Helena and Milton and wanted to let me know they were suspending their patronage because of the financial impact from that - not because they're unhappy with the game.

As most of you know, the writers and actors strikes hit me hard so I understand financial hardship.

Of course, each build goes public in a week or two anyway but if you're having a hard time let me know and I can always send you the "patrons only" link.

This is obviously open to abuse and if EVERYONE cancels their subscriptions and asks for a free download I might have a problem, but I'll leave it to your individual consciences!
