Important announcement: saving Weight Gaming
🕑 Added 2025-12-06 00:31:57 +0000 UTCAs many of you already know, the Weight Gaming forum is on the verge of shutting down due to rising costs that our admin, Grot, can no longer shoulder alone. Some of you also know that I’ve been working closely with him to try and prevent our beloved weight gain games community from disappearing.
I’ve stepped forward as a benefactor, committing to contribute a substantial amount every month to help keep Weight Gaming alive. However, the sum required turned out to be much higher than we initially expected—around $2,400 USD each month—which I will partially cover with my own donations.
In light of this, I’m offering you, my patrons, a way to directly support the forum through my Patreon. To do that, I’m opening two new subscription tiers.
Tier 1: Commissioner
The Commissioner tier will give you a monthly ~10,000-character weight gain story written by me personally—no AI, no ghostwriters, just me and my wonderfully morbid imagination.
You’ll be able to commission a story featuring:
Your original characters
Characters from other media
Or, of course, characters from Fatgeria itself
Tier 2: Epic Commissioner
The Epic Commissioner tier includes everything from the Commissioner tier plus an artwork sketch from our artist.
She’s genuinely talented, and getting a custom sketch from her for only an extra $50 is, in my opinion, an absolute steal. Here is an example of one of her sketches:
Why am I doing this?
Because Weight Gaming means the world to me.
Before I found this community, my game was just another forgotten title buried at the bottom of Steam—maybe 50 purchases and about $150 in revenue. No community. No conversations. Not even criticism. It was like the game didn’t exist.
Here, everything changed.
I found:
A player base
Heated discussions and honest feedback
Fan art and creativity
A feeling that what I make actually matters to someone
Without Weight Gaming, I am, in a very real sense, nothing. I’m not a creator, not a writer, not an artist—I’m just a speck of dust, unseen and forgotten.
I don’t want anyone else to feel that way, and I don’t want this community to vanish. You, the players, would lose so much: new games, a place to voice your opinions, and direct access to the creators you enjoy.
I am deeply grateful to all of you for your support so far. If helping you, and helping Weight Gaming, means I end up writing a hundred thousand characters of story every month, then so be it.
Let’s keep this place alive—together.

Key, your post inspired me to finally create a Patreon account and become a paid subscriber to both you and Grot. That website hosts countless projects that bring excitement and joy to my dull life. Without your intervention, it would have been lost for sure. Now we still have a fighting chance.

She works for me and her rates are bigger than through my Patreon (around 2x)
Levene nah
Where can I find more work from your artist and commissions solely through her?

What I meant to say before I tapped the enter button thinking it would make an indent, is that I'll need to think on this. I can afford it and $50 for a commission is indeed great value. Is that sketch tier limited to Fatgeria girls only or can it be for other characters?

On one hand, Weight Gaming is where I got my start as a translator, even if I only ever worked on the one fetish game before moving on to other stuff, so it does have a special place in my heart. On the other hand, I fucking hate how it's run. Caving to AI slopmakers and doing nothing about them is just the most basic of my complaints about the site.

Fuck, I didn't even know that the website was even on the verge of going under....

Gonna go ahead and up myself into being a paid subscriber. I'll happily help out somehow to keep that great site afloat.
