Update regarding January

This is related to the post ~10 days ago with the poll, deciding on the January billing. Post here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/poll-about-75884519
First of all, thank you to everyone who both voted, commented and also messaged me. There were a lot of good opinions thrown around, and the sheer volume of people voting was reassuring.
So what is the result?
In total, 85% of people voted not to stop the billing, and seems a few that voted Yes voted it for my mental state first and foremost. I think I can say with certainty that the vast majority, even though the progress has been extremely slow (and is kinda paused for January), still believes in me and doesn't mind me taking one month "off" to focus on the priority that is my University. So I will do exactly as I said in that post as well, just once again to make it loud and clear: January will be fully in focus of my University, any work on the game will be only made if I really feel I have the spare time.
What about the tier benefits (renders)?
Good question, and I can't say for certainty. While those are in theory "easier" to do, as I can do whenever I have spare time, it also is the same thing as Episode 4. Which is work, as it takes me roughly 2-3 days monthly for monthly+customs alone.
What I did try to do, is make a lot of renders now before January as a way to "compensate" at least a little bit for the possible drought next month. The Levy renders and all the Xmas renders I made (will be posted tomorrow!), for those that haven't seen it.
So the answer is: if I have the luxury of time and mental health, I'll do it. But better be prepared for me to skip them entirely in January.
That's cool, but I(patrons) am unhappy about it?
As I said, almost everyone voted in favor. In case you are a patreon in January, and even though I posted it loud and clear (twice now) that the next month will be relatively empty, you feel somehow betrayed... Let me know!
If you are subbed in January and feel bad for spending on me, I'll gladly return the January patronage amount in the first two weeks of that month. Just DM me!
