[Progress Report] February 2020 to March 2020
Added 2020-03-02 00:54:27 +0000 UTC[Keep in mind, I don't have a full time job. Usually if I need extra money I have to pick up odd jobs or rely on my family to help with certain things so Patreon helps pay for the essentials I need to continue working on my art]
Roughly $750.00 was collected for the start of this month through Patreon
This month about $381.76 to $400.00 will be used for up keep, including things like my Adobe Plan, Maintaining my Internet Connection, & renewing my yearly plan to keep my website online. (The rest of my expenses are being paid with the help of my family)
All other expenses can be covered with odd jobs and help from my family which leaves about $350.00 profit from Patreon that can be used on other things for the game or saved for later use.
To get an idea on the costs associated with the game
-Ella's voice lines within the current build cost about $130.00
[There's 9 more characters in the main cast to get through, and lots more dialogue for Ella to be recorded, considering the lines that were recorded now, they might end up being the cheapest part of Ella's sections for the game because she has a lot more to say.]
-Music costs about $100 per min
[There's probably more than 10 tracks planned for the game if I'm throwing out the lowest number.]
-Additional costs for small things like Unity extensions might be around the $15.00 to $100.00 mark
I know come April I wanted to reach around $1000 a month if we could but it's not the end of the world if we don't. Complications with my health and changes to some of the expenses I need to cover each month have definitely given me a lot of anxiety to try and make more money in a shorter period of time but we should be okay within the next few months.
