With 0.3 around the corner I was thinking of making a walkthrough for what choices to make to reach a certain sex scene or outcome and I plan to have it around the time the new version comes out. And I was curious how you guys think I should proceed with it? Should it be available to the Public or Patrons only?

I suggest that the walkthrough for your game be on your patreon and suggest to be like in the like your $10 or so tier, you really want to collect something for your hard work you are doing but you really don't want to throw it out there for the lower tier who just do a quick $1 and then later on post it on some other stuff and I do know that some of the others who did some hard work and then only charge a $1 where later the work was found on a unnamed site which I will say for now, but once it was on that site, that person pretty much took and copy and paste the whole thing for a higher charge that you was asking for, to me that is sooooo wrong and not fair to you and the work you put in for what you did for us as your supporters for this Patreon. If I sound mean or rough, sorry, I have seen some really mess up things that someone else took the time to make and do and then later on seen someone do a quick spin to pocket some free money and try to get more for the work that was done which I think is wrong

for me you should do a mix of both. 1. make a patreon version only till a version where you mean its ok to be released public

Hi Void Star! Man I'm so excited about your project and getting to see it grow! At this point, I think your project needs as much public exposure as possible. As a tier $10 pledge, I personally have no qualms about you releasing as much content as possible to the public, if it helps other people see how serious you are about this project. I don't personally feel that our 'relationship' is transactionary, that is to say I support because I want to see your unique project flourish, and $10 just happens to be what I can comfortably afford. I personally dont need additional incentives, though I do get a chuckle whenever I see you posted my name in the credits. That being said, please note this is only my opinion.

Say.. So I was reading James Dunn's post, and he makes some solid points. However I feel that there is still need for as much exposure and public 'good will' for your project, at this point as possible. To that end, have you considered still releasing public content, BUT holding more content/style poles? That way you get exposure, and your supporters still feel like they have more sway with you. For example if you cant decide between two outfits, or who's story line to progress next, you could reward patrons by letting those that support you vote. I wouldnt include poles on anything critical to your story arch, or any elements you feel strongly about. However, giving patrons more of a voice is an awesome way to 'reward us' and show you appreciate the support.

Ok to clear this is up some, here the though for you, on Dec of last year, you made this part of the game, Forgotten Paradise 0.1a which is now on your public try out, if it has a walkthrough for it, then combine it with that one, now that is the oldest one of your game so far and yea the first game part, but that go from your high tier down to your lowest tier, then one day it goes free for people, now next one is just to say is story 0.2 then story 0.3 ok. story 0.3 would get the latest part of the game, and the latest walkthrough for the game but then again it the newest one of your game, while story 0.2 was new but it rolls back to middle level of your tiers with the walkthroughs for it, till one day story 0.2 is free as well as it walkthrough but then again it no longer your latest game update, you be like on story 0.5 or higher and that story and walkthrough would go to the highest tier you have and then work it way down or roll back down through your tiers till one day it gone from your highest tier down to the lowest tier which is the free or public one that you have on your patreon page

Again Lord Snufflepuff has a good point, I know of another creator who was using the vote system like he was saying if someone was in the $1 than that is one vote and if someone who was in the $5 then that was 2 votes but as for the $10 and higher, well no one was in his or her $50 level or the down and as for the $10, I was the only one in the $10 level tier, but for the $5 there was 2 and for the $1 there was like 5 totally but when he or she did poll, it was for story idea and for things such as ok here is a few outfits and it going to be adding in a part of the game to the story where the main person of the game pretty much see a glory hole for her first time, lol so the whole building was voted on and even how the one girl you see in the room doing her job for the ones on the other side , that you don't see but outside of the building you see then line up and even one of them thinks you the new girl who coming in to work the other glory hole for your new pimp master that you have sworn your soul to, lol. Yet it got put into a poll and voted on and now that part of the fun is in the game to see and play with, so yea having a tier system where things can start at your highest level and work down the tiers till one day it free to share and to help you as you make the game since the way I look at it, we can go blow $50 on piece shit of game that got hyped out and not worth it since it broken, "cough" EA games as such "cough" or you can work with your tiers and for the ones who are at the top get all the love and what ever can do for them but one day at the lower or the free ones, them people will get your work, but word of mouth will get around and they be like have you seen Void Star, new game, he got that hottie jane all tied up since the cyborg got a new toy to work her over to keep them warp core running at warp 9 since that supposedly cloud 9 fun level , lol
