Hey. I appreciate the interest, unless that was a tragic misclick, which would make this kind of embarassing. This is the part where I admit that I don’t really like dealing with money or being prescriptive about how people use it, but also want to let anyone interested know what they’re in for.

OKAY BUT HOW DO I GIVE YOU MY MONEY

One-time:

• Ko-fi: I get ~95%. I only see the information you choose to share with me.
• PayPal.Me: I get ~95%. I will see the name associated with your payment method.
• Streamlabs: I get ~95%. I will see the name associated with your payment method, and if I’m streaming, there will be a dumb noise that I’m at least somewhat obligated to acknowledge, xd.
• Streamlabs Merch: I get ~50%. You get a shirt. These are pretty shitty, but maybe that’s the point. I don’t actually know whether I see your name—if this is important to you, email me, link’s in the footer.

Periodic:

• Ko-fi: I get ~95%.
• Patreon: I get ~90%.
• Twitch: I get ~50%. You get emotes on Twitch and Discord plus a dumb badge.

OKAY BUT WHERE DOES THAT MONEY GO

Rent, food, hardware and server costs. I live very frugally so that I can spend as much time as possible doing interesting shit; I will never waste your money.

OKAY BUT WHAT DO I GET OUT OF THE EXCHANGE

I don’t really have an incentive structure for this shit, but anything “periodic” gives you the keys to HITBOX DIMENSION’s “whales” channel, where I occasionally share shitposts and drafts, talk about meta stuff with people who are likely to be interested, and I guess people post selfies. Anything related to video platforms also gets you those associated perks. :D?

On a broader level, my life will probably be a little easier, and the quality of the things I make and do tends to improve as my stress decreases. No guarantees, I’m a moron.

OKAY BUT ISN’T THIS PRESENTATION KIND OF OBNOXIOUS, WHAT’S WRONG WITH JUST LINKING THIS SHIT DIRECTLY

Yeah, I guess it might rub some people the wrong way—sorry if it seems patronizing or weird. But faceless donation links bother me more than than…whatever this is, I guess, and if I were in your position I’d probably be vaguely interested in how to most effectively use the money I’ve set aside. Anyway, here’s a cute girl for your trouble.

WOW THANKS SHE’S ACTUALLY PRETTY CUTE

That’s Tana from Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, and she’s real fuckin' good. It’s a decent game too, bite-sized little tactics challenges with great music and really clean spritework. Highly recommended.

WAIT, I SAW THE CUTE GIRL AND DISASSOCIATED, WHERE IS THE ACTUAL PAGE CONTENT AGAIN

Completely understandable. Here you go.
