Important Poll
I'm going to be transparent. Today I got fired from my job for no reason, despite my workaholic efforts. But oh well, it's the real world, and everyone gets screwed over by life sometimes. I was discussing this with the goddess members, and it came up that it might be worth changing the cost of entry for the new games from Mini Giantess to Giantess tier. However, I want to discuss these changes with everyone before I take any action. I know I’ve said many times that I don't care about money, but I didn't expect to get fired from the job I worked at for years, so I'm deeply sorry.
- How would you feel if the entry cost for new games becomes the Giantess tier? The Mini Giantess tier would be converted to a tip jar, basically.

Maybe a rolling release schedule could work? Mini getting the latest release a month behind the other tiers would probably be enough for people to want to switch over, but it doesn't really impact anyone if they're more frugal. I'd switch to the higher tier knowing both that you need it and the quality of your work, but from the poll it looks like a sizeable bunch wouldn't want the cost to increase. Best of luck either way.
This poll is checking what people think, but I decide what the best one is.
I'd suggest against it. Doing so would mean at least half of those who are currently on $3/month tier need to upgrade to $6/month tier for you to retain same amount of income. Economic situation is bad in general all around the world and is getting worse. People have to think a lot more before spending, so I believe that changing that would likely result in net loss for you, plus lower newcomer head counts. Maybe you should wait until your reputation about your work is more established, but may it already is and I could be totally wrong about this, too.
Sad to hear, losing steady income always sucks, but I don't mind if you need the extra money to try and keep a little more stable for a little while. You do cool stuff and the other people here agree on that, a few extra bucks goes a long way sometimes. Hope you don't have to wait too long to find something to keep yourself up. Keep your chin up and good luck with the job hunt
Voted "no opinion" since I'm already on one of the higher tiers, so my vote would only skew things since it would have been irrelevant anyway. That said, looks like about 60% would be willing to support, but only 2/3rds of that number could afford to do the new tier. So I suppose if the math works out well enough that you could make it work then I'd say do it. If not though, start looking at alternatives.
Tbh dude I’m also on the hunt for a job at the moment. Despite that I’m still down to upgrade to the next tier to get access to the new games and stuff cuz the amount of effort you put in is worth the money
I think that would be a fair price for how much work you put in the game. Not to mention good quality and constant updates every month. And who knows, maybie you will become a succeseful full time game developer, who doesn't need another job. You do make great games after all ;)
I, too got fired. Well, announced that my department will be getting closed. Only in the CEO's interest of profitable margins and choices. Everyone, wants to save money. I hope, for both of us, are getting a job soon.
I wish for the best of both of us
I think you've proven beyond doubt that your work ethic with these games is superb. The extra money is worth it knowing how dedicated you've been.
Aww thanks. <3
Sorry to hear that this has happened so suddenly.., ultimately it's up to you but I will try to commit to the giga giantess tier for a while longer 😇
<3 Thanks Flan!
know that feeling just a couple of months back I got lay off for a while lucky not too long but still it straight kick to the legs when you told your fire/layoff.
It sucks as my plans all fall into the water for the next game.
Damn, that sucks, I know how you feel on losing your safety net of a job, it happened to me right before the holiday season. but now your job is to look for a new one. I myself am already the giantess tier, but yea while you are looking it seems fine to bump it up to help get you some income. and when you do find a job maybe bump it back down once things are stable for you. I wish you luck in your new journey in finding a new job.
I will try thanks!
Well, that really sucks. As I always thought: no need to put so much effort when you are just a simple pawn that can be rid of for "no reason” the next day. Anyway, I don't know what your job is (or if I can say "was") but I hope you can find another one ASAP. I'm already at "Giantess" tier but maybe I can upgrade to "Giga-Giantess" tier if that can help you a little. Sorry in advance if I can't take the "Goddess tier". Don't want the greedy EU VAT taking all my money. I can respect the choice of those who don't want or can't switch from "Mini-Giantess" to "Giantess" tier for wathever reason. Wish you luck! Stay strong!
I want to be open as possible no bs that's why I made this poll
I say "go for it", because losing your main source of income is definitely a problem. Whether or not I'll join the higher tier is questionable, though.
I'm extremely conflicted, I didn't enjoy making this poll as I don't like asking for money
I really wish this had not happened, but I completely understand, I will not give an opinion, I hope you can solve this soon, I will not be able to support for a while, but it is very possible that I will pay again when the new game is at least half way through the process as I do not have enough to pay the required amount monthly. I wish you all the best and hope you get a new job soon.
That's respectable Moon, I hope I can solve it soon too
So. my followers will now about you and support you with the game.
Hey pal. I could help you promoting the game doing an art about your characters. I don't have the enough money to support you with a bigger amount of money. But I'll be glad to help you with it.
That's really kind, you don't have to do it for me.
Ill keep supporting you as i have orachi, even if im slow at playing the game now :D
On one hand I know this deal was too good to last forever and I should just accept this change. On the other hand, I’m greedy and I want content for as little money as possible.
I'm sorry
I'm sorry that happened to you I hope you'll be able to find a new job that respects your hard work.
Thanks I hope too
