March is FREE for Patrons

Added 2022-03-01 07:38:33 +0000 UTC

Hey there!

I'm reaching out to tell you that I decided to make March FREE for everyone.

What does this mean?

- if you're already a patron you won't be charged in March,

- if you have a yearly subscription the subscription will be extended by one month for free.

on the flip side, I won't be releasing new content in March.

I honestly hate having to do this, but I'm finding myself in a spot where I constantly crunch to meet deadlines (you might have noticed that the last 2 releases happened on a Saturday). This built up a considerable amount of stress and it clearly demonstrates that I need to change something in order to keep this project at the level of quality I want and avoid burn-out.

Also, you might have noticed that I didn't manage to release any new tier or line of content yet, even though I have plenty of stuff planned.
A busier-than-usual day job, having a 6-month-kid and other personal issues reduced significantly my ability to work and all I was doing was crunching for weekly releases and not addressing big efficiency problems that would greatly alleviate the pressure.
Finally, December's vacations were good for the family, but being on the move most of the time meant I didn't manage to do all the work I had planned, so I ended up adding to the pile instead of solving things.

I feel being very transparent and honest is the minimum I can do towards many of you who supported me for so long, and I hope you can all understand my current situation and the reasons behind this small break.

But fear not, the content will resume regularly in April. During this month we'll continue producing backlog (without the pressure to release it immediately) and set up a more sustainable path for future months.

If you have any concerns or questions, drop me a message here on Patreon and I'll be happy to address it :)

Yours,

-- Matt
