Patreon tiers changes

Hello!

This post will outline some minor changes on Patreon. Some of these adjustments are prompted by the game's release on Steam – I won't be able to provide the game for free to everyone anymore, as it would violate their terms of service. I also wanted to give more credit to those in the higher tiers, because currently their benefits are disproportionate to the support they provide. 

The most significant change involves moving the Bonus Content Code to a higher tier, specifically the $10 tier - HOWEVER, I would not want those currently in this tier to feel cheated. Therefore, those who previously joined the $5 tier will still receive its benefits – the bonus content code – until they decide to unsubscribe or change their support tier. However, new users won't be able to join this tier anymore. Instead, a new tier will be created at $5.99 with new benefits.

The $1 Observer tier will remain unchanged, but more posts will be exclusive to higher tiers. However, I will add a Discord role to this tier. Observers will have access to the progress of the new update, change logs, developer logs, and cross-promotions.

The new $5.99 Attentive tier won't have access to the bonus content code anymore, but will receive access to the newest update of the game one week after its official release on Steam. Additionally, will have access to game previews (previously available to all Patreons).`

The $10 Inquisitive tier will receive the bonus content code for the latest game version, participate in polls to shape the game, and have access to the new update simultaneously with its release on the Steam platform.

The $20 Enthusiast tier, in addition to previous benefits such as having their name in the credits and access to special Discord channels, will also have the ability to view custom wallpapers created exclusively for higher tiers (previously available to all Patreons). We also plan to increase their multiplier during voting.

The $30 Devoted tier, along with earlier benefits like access to folders containing all fan arta, bonus content, and high-resolution wallpapers, will also receive early access to the game as soon as possible – likely a few days to a week before the official update release on Steam, after bug fixes and game testing.

These changes will take effect in 24 hours, but I encourage you to discuss them in the comments.
