A call for help.
Hi everyone.
I really wasn't expecting to make a post like this but things haven't been going great lately and I at least hope that expressing some thoughts can help my mental state
I would like to humbly ask you for your support in this adventure. I started this page a while ago and while I haven't gotten much support I was still happy that I was growing very slowly but constantly. But in the last months i have seen a significant decrease in support which has affected my ability to power through and just keep working. I am still able to do it since I'm almost fine with the idea that this adventure of mine will be a small adventure.
But it is getting harder to justify me just working on this while having to balance it with my "real job" which is also experiencing problems.
And I know if things are hard for me, they might be hard for you too. So if you can't support me I understand it
If you can't help me by pledging money or don't want to do it that way but you still want to help me. I would really appreciate some words. You don't know how much a nice comment or even a simple like in one of my posts can give me fuel to power through the day. And it might be able to feed some evil algorithm helping me reach more people. So if you want to help me I would really appreciate if you could follow me, like and comment my posts in my socials.

For those who could help me by pledging. I funnily enough don't need much money to become a full time developer. One of the advantages of living where I live is that the US dollar goes a long way. Or at least I can survive with much less than if I lived in the first world. Just $500 a month would justify for me to go full time dev here. Not really a good salary but decent to justify working on my passion.
For those that might have supported me in the past or are considering doing it. I would like to ask what I could do to earn your support? or what I did wrong if you decided to stop supporting me.
I need to face accountability and at least admit that I feel that releases haven't been as constant as you deserve. But know that I have been putting so much more effort than in the past. And I think it reflects in the quality of models and levels you're seeing. I want to be more constant and I think I'll be able to do it now that the base for the games is mostly done and it's now more about adding features. So I hope I can be more constant with releases. But if you can help me with your support. I can do it much better.
I do not come empty handed today. We recently released v0.1.1 of "Blessing of the Princess" for $5+ supporters and just today v0.0.7 red of "Souls of the Goddess" as a halloween celebration for free.
