I've decided that over time, I will make my commercial marketplace games for free. It was an experiment in making top tier games with relatively high amounts of content worth putting a price on.
However things wouldn't go that way. I was hampered by a lack of resources both monetarily and in experience. I had little money to invest in new resources and thus the RPG Maker MV RTP was heavily used thus giving the appearance of a lack of professionalism. I consider my strength as a story writer and not a graphical artist or a musician and thus the reliance on RTP.
I also made all these games during my stay at Devereux's campus in Rutland MA. A behaviorial/mental health facility. (Please don't read too deeply into that, I swear I'm not unhinged. Its just something that happened in my life.) Thus internet access was limited and marketing opportunities even less.
That and Gamejolt has changed from the wild west days of the early 2010's to the Diet Twitter experience where devs with actual budgets and use multiple talents.
So now I will gradually make all those games free to play so everyone can experience the stories, the idea, and the characters that I've made. Also here's a poll on what to demonetize next. Cheers!
