Our Patreon - We want to update it. What do you think?
Hi, our lovely TopHouse fans!
We would like to change our Patreon page cause we have been contemplating about it for a long time. We know that many of our subscribers have decided to cancel their subscription in 2024 due to various reasons, including the complicated situation with the WANDERER builds and the fact that we have switched our focus to releasing games on Steam. Since 2023, our studio has grown several times, both in the amount of employees and games being developed, but still, we have no intention to abandon our Patreon page - we want to develop it.
That is what we're probably plan to do:
Update the award for tiers and focus more on games other than just WANDERER. We find it important that you receive benefits for more than just WANDERER through your subscription to us. We want to add other games (new and old) to the rewards so that it will be profitable for you to subscribe. At the same time, the tier rewards for WANDERER will also remain.
Structure the positioning of our Patreon page based not around just one game, but around the whole TopHouse studio. This point includes the name of the Patreon page to be changed to tophouse_studio (instead of wanderer_game)
Create a Collections category. This will help you find different news about our games more easily. For example, you can find all artbooks for all our games in one click.
Launch the Shop section. We can then sell our Steam and Itch items on Patreon as well. Here we should also note that people in Germany and some other countries can't see NSFW games on Steam.
Implement a Recommendations system. It will allow us to recommend other game developers, and they will be able to recommend us among their fans.
Update our Patreon page description and other small details.
We want to know your opinion about two things:

when is the build for android?
I do think you should try making your tiers with the benefits that come with it less expensive, although I know making these games are not easy and cost a lot. But it might help in the long run.
Wanderer is the ONLY game you have thats worth anything. Everything else is either AI slop or NTR. Make another page for your AI slop, because who knows when patreon will ban that garbage anyway
For the most part I agree with this. The exception being Lyndaria Island. It’s pretty good, possibly better than Wanderer. The worst part is your Launcher. It’s SO bad I’ve had to remove it from my desktop and disable it on Steam. Wherever it has poked its head up it causes a blue screen crash or a complete lockup requiring a cold boot restart.
For the most part, I approve. There's only a few things that don't much matter to me(page name, recommendations, description) but could maybe be a big deal for someone else
I am one of those, that cancelled their subscription, because your tiers were to expensive for only one game wich felt like was put on the bench because of other games.
To that I agree
BTW I bought the game on itch.io and I’m not able to receive any update past 0.12, even on the lust launcher. Could I get a steam key for the game?
You already advertise a lot of other tophouse games on this page. It makes sense to organize them with the collections.
