Little Post for You Guys
🕑 Added 2024-05-03 17:00:12 +0000 UTCHey guys, Axl here! This time I'm making an almost completely MaM/Art unrelated post, basically to give you guys an update about my current real life situation and thank you for all what you've done for me!
For a little bit of context, that's me: 19 y/o guy from a poor family. If you remember correctly I started this around 2 years ago while I was in college (don't make the math to find out what I age I was when I did 0.01), and after a year I really couldn't afford it anymore, that's when I decided to dedicate full time to this project since the first MaM updates had a lot more of acceptance than I thought it'd have, and it was worth giving a shot.
As you also might remember, around 2020-2022 there was the whole covid situation and my family didn't have a stable income source which caused housing problems and debt for a little while. Luckily enough the Patreon started to grow faster after I decided to make updates every other month, which helped me and my family recover quickly.
Of course, even though things started to look better I still had to take care of chores around the house since I was the one who spent most time here (due to me drawing for the game). And after little more than 2 years of cooking, shopping, taking care of brothers, etc; it appears that I have finally up to a year to finally relax and work calmly in MaM. This thanks to getting enough hypno-smut money to pay everything that piled up.
And that's basically what I wanted to say, that through all this time, you guys have helped me more than you could even thought, from just lifting my morale with kind comments about my work, to literally helping me pay the roof I and the people I love sleep under! I know I'm not the best creator and I still have lots of room for improvement, that's exactly why I want to thank you all for sticking with me all this time.
Even if you're not donating, just by playing Mind and Magic, talking about the game or recommending it to a friend, all of that helps me lots to reach more people, which is (arguably) the main purpose of everything I do; this is also more than enough if you're in a tight spot or you feel the game doesn't deserve it yet.
And for everyone who does support me financially, I want you to know that I'm really grateful that you're not only taking time to see my content but give it some money too. These last years have been somewhat tough and thanks to you guys I can live off doing something I love.
This being said, I don't want to make this long and cheesy so, in short, thank you for supporting me, playing the game and just being here taking your time to see what I do; even if I did a masterpiece, it'd be worthless if no one played it!

I know I can get this finished, but with how ambitious MaM is, it'll take me at least a decade xD
