Donation Drive! Update
General | Posted 9 years agoHey everyone, it's Mimic!
This journel is to bring to light an issue that has been going on lately in the Donation Drive. Been expecting bugs and rough patches to happen since this is the first time I've done this, improvements are sometimes needed.
Now the growing issue I like to speak of is the item requests in the comments.
The first issue about this is the sheer amount of options and choices this brings about. People want to have their own items into the drive, however this caused some spamming to occur. Not saying it's bad, yet it's shown to make it less fun for those involved when there's so many items yet no one is making a chance to voice their want to put a specific item into the next picture. This isn't fun for people if they feel they can't choose.
So, I found a solution to this and will try to work it into the Drive now: People will be given a set of options to vote from to add to the next picture!
This means that, while you can request certain items to be added, I'll be the one to add the items in question to the poll. With this, I hope to make this move fun for people who are waiting for the next picture once it reaches it's milestone.
So lets start now!

Donation Drive! Current progress: level 3
General | Posted 9 years agoHey guys!
It's already been at least week or so since the the drive started and I was surprised on how much was donated already. I must thank all of you who donated so far and are helping Likki in her journey for treasure. :)
Now, I must address something in regards to requesting items as there is a lot of confusion behind it. Probably cause I worded it weirdly, though I wanted to make rules as short as possible. I should probably rework them to be more exact next time. Anyhow, here's the deal.
+Underneath the current picture, anyone is allowed the suggest items for Likki to have. Voting on them increases the odds of them being added when it's time to level up. However, it's generally up to me as the artist to add them as few people choose to vote objects and simply request their own. Nothing wrong with that, yet it only just increases the options to choose from.
+While I generally allow any item to be suggested, I can't choose items which would likely "break the system." For example, a potion that would increase her muscle size and height to that of a giant straight away would be considered breaking the system. An item that would buff up a specific part of the body or in a general manner would be passable. Magic relics to give her awesome spells is also cool. One that has cool, awesome or funny results are very acceptable.
Again, thanks for your helps guys. Lets keep on going and see where it takes us. Likki is on her way!

rinjipantera to wish him a happy birthday. Nothing fancy.Update on the game's progress
General | Posted 9 years agoFor those who tuned in my previous journal, then you would know that I had made a game using RPG maker.
However, the biggest problem a few people had with it was the rather large file size. Well today I bring good news!
The file size of the game is now 19 megabytes.

General | Posted 9 years agoLink to the game can be found here: https://mimic-kairatta.itch.io/sky-.....-short-stories
Welcome to Sky Haven: Short Stories!
This is the alpha/demo version of the game. It's made using RPG Maker VX Ace. All graphical tiles were made by me using Aepsrite and Photoshop.

Unless community feedback requires otherwise.
The game includes the following things:
A quick and skippable tutorial intro.
One completed level with multiple solutions.
Variety of characters.
A spider
A horse
And a brief ending.
All art, music, content and more within the game are subject to change. No promises are made and no release date is announced. All news and information shall be found here and only here unless specified otherwise.
Please enjoy the game and have fun. :D
Caution: There are likely game bugs that have yet to be fixed. Please let me know if you find any so they may be fixed in a later update. Thank you.
Story
The game is set in the city known as Sky Haven. The first story has Kathy trying to take the soul of the CEO for her boss. Join her as she tries to make her way into the building and get it.
PS: Her IQ is 24.

Commissions are on hold until further notice once more.
General | Posted 10 years agoDue to circumstances beyond my control, I will need to suspend commissions until things become stable. I am sorry, but there are things in the next month or so which will require a lot of my attention. This will also mean a lower rate of pictures being uploaded.
Commissions are now resumed.
General | Posted 10 years agoAlrighty guys, I feel things have settled down enough for me to work on commissions again. Sorry for the wait.
A friend of mine needs help.
General | Posted 10 years agoRinji, a friend of mine, has financial problems which need to be addressed before moving to his new home. Be sure to check out his journal for more details. http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6770579/
Commissions are on hold until further notice.
General | Posted 10 years agoDue to various things happening over at my place, I won't be able to concentrate on commissions for a while and the ones I currently have will be on hold until further notice. I'll be sure to let you all know once I am available again.
What is Modgate?
General | Posted 10 years agoWhat is ModGate 2015?
This is a movement in response to a recent implimentation by Valve on their Steam Workshop software distribution platform, allowing mod creators to sell their mods directly to gamers. The general concept was to give modders compensation for their hard work. While not a bad idea by itself, the way it was impliment caused a backlashed among Steam users and gamers as a whole didn't make it a good idea.
Being a steam user myself, I wanted to know exactly what this system does and how it worked. Doing research within a number of forums and the process of the system itself, I tried to gain as much insight as to what were the flaws behind the monitization. What I found was quite surprising.
There's four key points with this system which causes the negative effect.
First is community. The system has the potential to cause destruction of goodwill, altruism, and collaboration. (existing and future team/group/community projects and derivative works potentially ruined)
Next is Legal. The way it's structured, it gives way to legal compliance, copyright, licensing, liability, theft, and dependency issues.
Then we find Quality Assurance. Because of limits within the system, it pulls up issues with short/long term compatibility of mods, incentives for main publishers to release broken products.
Finally, there's financial. It has a heavily skewed revenue distribution (publisher reaping profits off 3rd party development).
Now what does this all mean? How does one system cause these problems? How can such a system exist? Well, here's what I do know.
When you post a mod within this system, or a mod that's already posted, you get to choose how much it costs. Then 75% of the money goes to Valve and the publisher. This is perhaps the most glaring issue people have with this system. Having a portion of the revenue given to the system is understandable when you are borrowing it to use for marketing purposes. 5-25% deduction of the revenue is what you'd expect to get, not 75%. This means that modders that choose to use this system gets far less than the price suggests. Using a Patreon system would have more efficient. Even a simple donation button would work.
The second problem is the Quality control, or lack there of. The buyer needs to be very careful when getting a mod in this system. There will be a sub-par quality to bad quality mods out there. There are a lot of people who are willing to scam people of their money, taking other mods and selling them on the market. The 24 hour refund policy makes it harder to recover from bad purchuses. Not to mention that Valve's customer service is not considered by many as good.
A big issue that comes up regarding this system is the community itself. Mods have all sorts of compatibility issues. When modders come together to work on things for free, you get the Nexus, a place where modders collaborate and offer solutions to compatibility issues with other people's mods. Steam though? It doesn't have that. Modders here don't need to make their mods compatible with other mods or support for people with issues with said mod. This is a problem when money is mixed in. When you buy the mod, you expect some kind of quality which will work no matter what patch the game gets. A game patch often causes problems with mods, which must be updated to handle the update. Like with point one, when mods are free, modders are much more likely to collaborate with each other, offer patches, offer compatibility updates, and generally rely on each other's content. Very frequently, mods have other mods as requirements and dependencies. SkyUI is the most prominent example right now. When this mod, which many mods rely on, became paid-only, caused problems for not only gamers, but modders as well. WHat happens when SkyUI refuses to let people make money off their work for free? What happens when they deny modders to use their UI for their own mods?
Also, how will you determine the legality of not only the actual mods, but of the games themselves once mods are front and centre as a selling point on Steam? How will you deal with mods using unlicensed names of people, vehicles, guns, or other gaming characters? How will you deal with regional problems with mods introducing (or reintroducing) cut content that is illegal in some countries, but not others?
This is powder keg ready to blow.
It's a big problem for value. Once the PC mods stop being free, it reduces the longevity of the game and the community as a whole. Not only that, taking a huge cut of the profits is just a huge slap in the face to customers and modders, gamers in general. They didn't work on the mod, they just gave them the tools to work with. Honestly, it would be better of Gabe just dropped the system in favor of a donation button.

Opening Patreon page
General | Posted 11 years agoHey guys, just wanted to let you all know that I am opening my Patreon page.
Keep in mind that my stuff will still be free.
I'm not forcing you to pay money just so you can see my stuff. You control whether you'd like to leave a tip/pledge towards what you like. It'll still be up whether you choose to do so or not.
You can find the link of said page here: http://www.patreon.com/MimicKairatta
What is Patreon?
Well, Patreon is a system used to support your favorite artist or creative maker. When you sign up (Usually takes a minute to put in name and email), you are given the chance to pledge a certain amount of money per "project" or per month. It can be anywhere from one dollar to 25 dollars.
It's set to a monthly basis so whether I draw one issue or twenty pictures, you'll only have to pay that one dollar for the month. Keep in mind that not everything within the Patreon page will be to everyone's tastes..... that's what commissions are for.
Anyways, if you have any questions, leave a comment and let me know. I'll try to answer it to the bet of my ability.

Sky Haven Chronicles comic
General | Posted 11 years agoHey guys, Mimic here.
As you may have seen, I am creating a comic. If you haven't seen, then I'll post it here in this journal. I am making a comic.
What is this comic? It's called Sky Haven Chronicles.
This is a comic based on a long running RP setting that I've used with a number of friends of mine that evolved out of another RPG which I played in a message forum for 7 years. It sets in a city called Sky Haven. It is here that many things happen and many characters of different origins and species gather. Why? Well, anything really. Jobs, living, fighting giant monsters, protest, and just hang out with friends. The comic will tell of different stories of different characters. Each having their own adventure, sometimes it intertwines with other stories and characters. I wanted to make a comic like this for a while but never had someone to help write it until now.
So expect more updates in the future.
Later this month, I plan to open up a Patreon account to help fund both the comic and my artistic pursuits (animations and stuff). This doesn't mean you have to pay to see the comic. You'll still get the pages for free. The patreon is to give you someplace to donate money if you like my art or just want to show your appreciation for the comic (Better than Google Adsense for youtube with all it's ads and inefficient means of revenue. Seriously, who posts 5 videos a day? Urg, rambling....). Plus, there are a few bonuses for doing so like up-to-date news regarding the comic or other projects and possibly early access to pages in the making.
I'll post another Journal regarding the Patreon page once it is ready to be shown. I'm just playing around with it to see what works. It's easy to sign up and donate, yet the more advanced stuff is more... well, advanced.
Stay tuned for more news later in the month. Let me know what you guys think.

Wanna know what I do outside of drawing?
General | Posted 11 years agoPlay video games of course!
Well, not always, but I usually do. When I do, I try to post recordings onto youtube. Though it takes a while to upload it to the website and sometimes the processing can bork the audio.... anywho, A friend of mine suggested that I post my youtube link here.
For those of you who want to see me stumble about playing games, here's a link: https://www.youtube.com/user/mimic12455

General | Posted 12 years agoAlrighty, someone asked me to make a guide on how to hire an artist. Something that many people think they know, but often do things that they keep doing without realizing it.

Gone for the week
General | Posted 12 years agoHey Guys,
Sorry I haven't been doing much in terms of personal news and updates, but I feel this should be something worth noting in case I haven't told anyone yet. This week I'll be visiting my sister's place to go to her wedding. I will be bringing my comp to use but I don't know how much I'll be able to use it since it'll be a busy few days.
Anywho, thought I'd let you all know. Enjoy your week!

General | Posted 12 years agoWow. I didn't even notice it until I actually glanced at it. I have to say, I didn't even realize I had so many people watching me. (Kinda creepy. X3)
Seriously though, I like to thank all of you. The watchers, commenters and favors. Thank you all for liking my art and encouraging me to draw. You guys are great!
