Poll Time! Longer animations?

As most of you know, in August rather than doing the two standard rewards (which have tended to be a comic/image series and a short animation), I put double the time into a single longer animation and offered a smaller second reward relating to the first.

It was a neat experiment and I wanted to know how you all felt about it, so I can make informed choices going forward (note: this poll will not lock me into a particular path, but will impact my decisions on the matter).

i'm 99% here for the pill and your other games tbh, but didn't vote that way because now that i've joined i do enjoy the other content (voted for the longer animations)

Thanks for letting me know, CT, it's important to get a proper sense of all the patrons preferences.

I'm looking at this as a one man team making content and the last thing I want is for the creator to burn out by trying to push content on time. I've seen creators burn out under the pressure to push content on time and it's caused them to basically quit. A mix allows time and space for longer projects that can be worked on overtime, such as the pill endings for example, and for more experimentation with shorts and strips.

Well put, birthdayboy. Burnout is definitely something I want to avoid and a variety does seem to be a good way to avoid it.

Animations are nice but I do like the occasional full comic here and there; it stimulates the mind xD

I would prefer a variety of things, but I enjoy the comics generally speaking the most of all as there is a story behind it and it seems to provide the most value in terms of amount generated.

Looks like the majority have spoken, and I tend to agree with it. Speaking of the Pill, how's that coming along anyway. I know my favorite girl Luca will get more attention (VITALITY PILL YES) and this I'm especially looking forward to this update.

The Pill is coming along consistently if a little slowly. I tend to allocate two weeks to game development and two to monthly rewards each month and in the last month the first two weeks were chewed up with various elements (setting up new rigs, searching for VO people and general life). I had a good day of writing this week and intend to dedicate next week to furthering the progress. The update has also ended up being a bit bigger than expected. It will end up making the chapter go from 12 animations to over 30, so will be more than doubling. That said, my next week is clear and I'm hoping to get the writing finished then!
