Verdent Weekly 3.29.19
🕑 Added 2019-03-29 04:00:01 +0000 UTCWelcome to a Verdant
As we move forward on this new venture, it is our desire to provide you with a better, more complete CYOA experience. We know you are in this with us for the long haul, and your dedication deserves to be acknowledged. Monster Brothel was a unique experience for us, but one our little team thoroughly enjoyed. Now we go on, better equipped and ready to learn from our errors to produce a better story with more complete characters for you to choose from.
What Is Changing?
We are putting more focus on story development, character arcs, and creating a more vivid and far reaching world for you to explore. We don't just want to provide one shot encounters. We want for you to move through each character's tale with the sense that you are exploring this world through their eyes. Think of each character as providing a piece of the map, allowing you to explore this unique world a little at a time. When you step back, you'll get to see the full story unfold as you have decided, each characters tale ending a different way.
Monthly Schedule
From now on, we will be giving you a Monthly Schedule a bit ahead of time. This will include dates for things like :
-Monthly Schedule (Last Day of Previous Month)
Ex: April's Schedule will drop on May 31st. -Content Drops (Mondays)
Ex: Race lore, character backstory, excerpts, et cetera.
-Worldbuilding Access (Wednesdays)
Ex: Goal Contingent access to history, religion, politics, housing, food, international relations, et cetera.
-Artwork Drops (Thursdays)
Ex: Access to artwork is dependent upon Tier Status. Check your Tier to see what you will be able to access.
-Weekly Announcements (Fridays)
Ex: In the Last Week, Upcoming Events, Schedule Changes, F.A.Q
-Livestream (Fridays)
Ex: All Tiers will have access to Livestreams & Discord but finished Artwork is dependent upon Tier status.
We hope till will make things more accessible, allowing for people to see content and attend things like Livestreams and Discord chats with greater ease.
New Tier
As you can see, we've made some update to our Rewards and Goals for you to explore. Now that we are in full swing, we've also added a special $40 Reward Tier for those of you who would like to take a more hands on approach to your contributions with us. $40 SUPPORTING CAST CONTRIBUTOR Tier for those of you who would like to have more input in the upcoming supporting characters. Now we need to make some final decisions regarding how many spaces will be available, so this Tier will not officially open until we come back from Hiatus on 4.1.19. But for those of you who are interested, here is what it will entail:
- All Basic Access, Subscriber Access, Beta Tester Access, and Character Supporter tier benefits
- Ability to claim from a limited number of supporting characters to help develop
- Completed artwork & background story on your character
In order to make communication as accessible and free flowing as possible, you will be asked to join with our Discord chat. I will do all I can to make myself available to you so we can discuss how best to integrate your character into the story. There will be some small limitations, but I will try to remain flexible.
Merchandise
While our Etsy page will remain up and we will continue to fill orders for the foreseeable future, we likely won't be doing any merch for Verdant. There are several reasons for this. Number one being that we want to keep our artistic and content focus on the story itself. But as much as we enjoyed creating the merch for MB, it just didn't sell as well as hoped. We will be taking a peek at places like Redbubble and Society6, but unless we see a demand for merch come up, it's better for us to keep our focus where it belongs.
