February 11th Weekly update! Scale Tipping

[Sorry I forgot to make this post earlier. If I miss a post like this in the future, it will usually be a public post on my Patreon. I will have another weekly post tomorrow.] Hey everyone,
Hope you all are doing well. My break was a tad bit less relaxing than I had hoped, but the show must go on haha I took some time to change a few things about the Patreon and future projects. My goal was to make it so I can focus on one single project more often, and also get things out to y'all faster.  
- First off, I've removed the game polls that I had each month. I will still have the animation polls per month, but I think it was a bit arrogant of me to think  I could get monthly animations done while also working on small and bigger games at the same time. Which usually consist of several animations by themselves. I will probably still work on mini-games in my free time, but since I don't have the time to work on them consistently, I don't want to get people's hopes up on when they'll be done. The Midna game and Fox Hole are still going to be worked on and completed though, since they were already voted on. 
- Jumping off that, my monthly plans will now be a single project that I will be working on. In other words, I'll state what I want to work on at the beginning of the month, and I'll work on it until it gets done. This way I can focus on one thing getting done at a time, and get things done faster, instead of trying to juggle so much. If I finish a project before the month is over, I will continue work on another project if I have a backlog, or introduce a new project to round out the month. 
 - For bigger projects like the Pyra finale, I think it's important I keep you all in the loop for long projects that. For the finale specifically, I didn't want to show too much because it had some twists and turns that I didn't want to spoil. At the same time, I don't think it's fair to just tell you guys I'm working on something without showing any progress of it. So In the future, I will be posting more WIP shots and will be breaking down projects so patrons can follow the progress of them better. I'll include a spoiler tag incase people want to avoid spoilers for future animations.
I do want to start working on games again, since I have a few ideas I want to get out, plus there are some old games I want to get finished. I've been a bit more focused on animations of late, and I still have quite a few in the backlog. But I want start working on them again, when I have time after I do the Patreon animations each month, and after I clear out my current backlog. So I'll share any WIP shots and test demos of things I get done. I will also make a later post of my current backlog so I can organize what I still need to do, and so you all can see the progress I make along the way.
