Fate of Shiftcore

General
Hey everyone,
So Shiftcore has been going for about a year, and for the last few months things have been going pretty well as the concept is concerned. But as things are getting tighter tough decisions have to be made, and after putting up a patreon and attempting to do two a week comic page updates there has been little in the way of support. While I want to keep this project going and even expand it, things are progressing to the point where choices need to be made, and so I'm putting this out here.
I need Shiftcore to sustain itself.
At the moment nearly the entirety of the budget is coming out of my writing, which is something I had been attempting to pull away from to do other things. That money now has to go to other things like mitigating the debt that I'm in, which means putting this on pause until I can get it back under control. So I've set the following goals to hit, and while advertising may help I'm just laying it out.
By the end of September, I want the Shiftcore Patreon to be at $1,000.
By the end of December, I want the Shiftcore Patreon to be at $2,000.
While I can make some wiggle room if it gets close, these are the benchmarks that have to be looked at. Right now the patreon is a little over $100, so there is quite a way to go. If by December both goals aren't hit then Shiftcore will have to go on hiatus until my financial situations changes. I don't really like putting this out there, but if you like the webcomics that are being produced here then please support the project and the wonderful artists that are a part of it!
