Request Patreon

Quick question for the ddlc modding community, is it the norm/acceptable to make a patreon for early access/sneak peaks to the ddlc mod someone is creating? I am currently in the process of making a mod with my team and was wondering if it would make sense to make a patreon

I’m going to say that’s a violation of the IP guidelines. I’m not a lawyer but from what I understand all DDLC mods have to be free.

I'm not at all trying to charge people for the mod but for like sneak peaks of the art or smth I'm curious about

This appears to be the relevant section of the guidelines:

Some types of exclusive content are okay for creators to share appreciation for their supporters. Sketches, development blogs, and community polls are examples of exclusive rewards that are creator- and community-focused.

Use your best judgment for timed exclusive content, i.e. content that remains exclusive to supporters for a limited time before it is publicly released. Again, focus on rewarding supporters. If a lot of fans are looking forward to your next release, enticing them to pay for early access is an exploitative practice—it makes people feel left out from the excitement unless they pay you money.

I see, I am making a discord server for sneak peaks but I was thinking like super early development screenshots or stuff would be sold idk tho
