Let's reward our local devs and mod makers
« on: August 08, 2011, 11:24:46 pm »

I would like to start collecting/contributing funds so that we may purchase games for our favorite mod makers and game devs here on Bay12. Any thoughts?
I personally felt obliged to gift Deon after all the enjoyment I have received from his work these last 2 years.

I don't have any money to spare, but I did recently complete a game mod and post a thread here about it, only to have it slink to page three with no replies. I thereby demand an average of one-half cent (US currency) from each of you for my troubles.

I am not sure if this is a legit thing to do,
But I had the idea of having a TF 2 "Hatdrive"
to action off hat or compilable virtual goods in exchange for donations to games.

This or an internet bake sale.

"Hatdrive"
Time to mod in a new propulsion system in every space game.

Hmm, I must have somehow missed most of these modder/dev type people.  Care to list a few projects that are worth checking out?

I'm more than happy to throw a few bucks at anyone whos work gives me enjoyment.

unormal spends some time on bay 12 so there's Qud. Dullard makes Cult but it hasn't had a release in a while afaik. Draco works on games like his procedural RTS... and nenjin just finished a spectacular Company of Heroes map.
