Funding Goal Ideas

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 100 $ | 100 $ | Apple code signing certificate |
| 2a | 500 $ | 600 $ | Windows code signing certificate from digicert for 1 year |
| 2b | 475 $ | 575 $ | Alternatively: Windows code signing certificate from digicert for 2 years |
| 3 | 300 $ | 900 $ | Additional windows CI job (would possibly allow us to create 64-bit windows binaries without delay, appveyor charges $25 per additional job per month) |
| 4 | ? | ? | Additional travis (macOS?) CI jobs (we'd need to contact travis support for a quote) |
| ? | 100 $ | 1000 $ | Steam store listing? |
| ? | 20 - 100 $ | 1100 $ | Windows store listing? |
| ? | ? | ? | Bounties for complicated projects? |
Contributor Tier Ideas
- $1: Discord role
- $5: Private Q&A channel with devs. Participate in polls
$10: Stickers(we'd need to design and order them first)- $15: Coding livestreams topic selection (regularly, different topics, livestreams open to all)
- $25: Discord cool role
- $50: Mentioning on about page. Demonnic will turn you a pen on his lathe.
Points from other creators
- Publicize it regularly
- Create a Discord role
- Have the $1 tier
- stickers :D (designed by Stephen!)
- Coding livestreams
- Coding Q&A videos
- Live coding sessions of Mudlet scripts
Come up with reward ideas
Interesting ideas:
- Discord role (or multiple tiered)
- Private Q&A channel with devs
- Alternatively a half-public channel, in that all can read answers, but not all can write
Stickers(we'd need to design and order them first)- Coding livestreams
- regularly
- different topics
- Mudlet
- scripts
- Mentioning on about page
- Have this tiered as well? For example like this
- Mention name
- Mention name and image
- Mention name, image and tool-tip shown on mouse-over
- Mention name, image, tool-tip and be clickable/link somewhere (no 18+)
Anti-ideas we are not implementing:
- Getting your game listed
- Putting advertising on mudlet.org
Investigate other platforms
- Keneanung checked out other platforms that Github supports - none are all that popular and Patreon had the lowest fees.
- which ones were checked? --> The ones mentioned in https://help.github.com/en/articles/displaying-a-sponsor-button-in-your-repository#about-funding-files - That is: CommunityBridge, GitHub Sponsors, IssueHunt, Ko-fi, Liberapay, Open Collective, Otechie, Patreon, Tidelift
Be mindful of doing it wrong
- don't want anyone to feel left out - Mudlet is gonna be free, and we're not doing this to make people without money feel bad (practically speaking the amount that'll care will not be high, but still!)
