September '18 Patron Polls

Hello patrons! This month's polls will have a rather quick result! As you know, most of the content in our work is done, with the exception of sprites. That being said, while sprites are a pretty big part of the game (seeing as in-game you control one and interact with other sprites primarily), the rest of the game is pretty much playable.

So, this month we'll be asking - do you want the updates to be published only after all sprites are ready, or would you be OK with playing a version with everything is basically ready... Except the sprites?

If patrons are OK with it, we'll have these blank canvas 'placeholder' sprites first for the version releases, and the actual sprites for those characters will replace them later, once ready.

Vote now!

Results will take effect in a week if majority votes for placeholders!

Thank You My Friend. I Just Went Back To Game One. WOW You Have Came A Long Ways. This is Awesome. And Thanks Again.

That's The Motts !!!

I suggest going with that placeholder version, "nudge" "nudge"

So, the suggestions to release a placeholder version that those who want to access the content first seems like a popular notion! After all, it's true those who don't want to play this version can simply skip it! I will think on this and make a decision shortly!

Fair point of a few people above, is there a reason to not accommodate both choices, realease latest version with placeholders for those who want it and those who wishes to wait for the full experience can just chose not to download until all sprites are in the finished release? :P

As I said before, it's usually best to playtest in a less-complete version first, since that way the artists keep working on the sprites while you or the programmers get to patch up any glaring bugs that get discovered and the full release is a lot more playable. But...as you will.

How about release it as it is and let the patrons decide if they want to download it with the placeholders and if they dont want to they can wait until the completed version when the sprites are done.

Trigger

It'll probably drop within the month with placeholders. Without placeholders, hard to say, as I can't speak for my artists.

ArchitectOfDystopia

Definitely an option I'm considering!

Out of curiosity how long would it take for the sprites to be ready? If we vote placeholders will the update release next week (say 4/10)? And if we wait for sprites it wont be released until end of october or something?

I'm okay with wait for full sprite content, as long i see new quests with new CG's and new ways to farm gold with Claire, if you know what i mean xD

How about release AS IS. And Don't Down load If You Want The Full Experience? ;)

That's The Motts !!!
