That's awesome, not only for you but I especially applaud those who pay for your content. As a game developer it makes me wonder if there's a viable & addressable market there, to work on a single game "long-term" without feeling the crunch from Steam/reviews/etc.

- elliekelly 6y agoThere seem to be some developers who make mod content for games who do well on Patreon. Edit: I also just realized I know of a game developer on Patreon for a game that hasn’t been released yet. It seems he (and presumably his team) earn $40k/month: https://www.patreon.com/alexmasse https://www.patreon.com/alexmasse
