Patreon - Coming soon once I have figured out what reward tiers should be included.

Thanks for the info, it's a shame to hear that the API is not that great (I haven't even looked into it yet) but good to hear they are working on it.  Let's hope the improvements come sooner rather than later.

Yeah that could work for certain projects, but for me there will be only one build of my game.  Since my game is online only, players will get their reward/rewards attached to their account which i guess they will have to redeem by submitting their purchase key from this site, or from patreon.   But would be nice if i could stick to one system then i'd only have to deal with one API etc.  Still trying to figure if what i want to do is possible.

Hey I'm Lee an indie game dev from UK.

My current project is Will To Power, a first person medieval survival game.  I have some big features planned for this game and it should push the survival genre forward from it's current stagnated state.

Think of a medieval version of rust, with actual player created villages, towns, city-states and eventually countries, rulers and territories, power structures and hierarchies with a sprinkle of RTS elements such as technology trees and NPC guards.

Feel free to add me or to follow my game page for future updates.

Any plans for Patreon Integration?  Would be cool if you could do something similar to the Kickstarter tiered rewards but with patreon.  This would be better for smaller developers like me as there is no way I could manage to run a successful kickstarter, therefore patreon would be more desirable for people in my situation since it's more passive, no time limits and also has tiered rewards.

I know this probably wouldn't happen anytime soon but would be great if this could be considered for the future.

Finally i would like to say thanks to the guys behind Itch, it's a great platform and perfect for me in my current situation.

All the best.

I looked into this as i was also confused.  Found out that a scammer abused the system so they have had to disable it on new accounts I think.  It's also absent in my options.  Was hard to find any information about it in google.  You may have to contact support to ask them to enable it on your account.

*Edit

Looks like you can only use paypal now if itch collects your payments for you, and after each payment you have to wait 7 days before you can cash it out.
