I say yes, but no T-shirts or mugs or crap like that. Plushies only! D:
Edit: As long as Nifflas doesn't get the EA virus and become greedy. Imagine having to spend money to play Knytt Stories! Monthly subscriptions for playing Night Game? ONOEZ
Edit 2: I choose "Neutral". My philosophy is "the more money you get, the more money you want".
I voted Yay (it couldn't hurt at least) but I'm not interested in any items. Unless they are super awesome, which they may be...
But even so, I would much much prefer to just donate my money. That way I know you get most-if not all-of my money rather than the relatively small percentage you would receive from Merch alone.
The amount of enjoyment I received from your games, especially as a late-bloomer compared to most around here, I say you should open up your donation system again (perhaps give a small discount to Saira to those who donated?). As soon as I saw your site for the first time you had already closed the donations so I never had the chance.
I'm a college student, so money is tight but I would have no problems donating any reasonable amount.
I would certainly refuse any discount you may or may not offer if you decided to open donations and yes, that is a halo over me head :P
As a grown up I need money to survive. It's not about any illusions about taking over the world or getting rich, I'm happy as long as I can afford a home, food, and in the future perhaps even enough money to buy a house or support children. Either I get a full time work and spend 8 hours per day getting the money I need for that - which means I'll have no time to work on game development - or I try to make money out of the game development so I don't have to spend all those 8 hours on something else.
I can't see a "the more money you get, the more money you want" aspect in this. I mean, how is this exclusive to people who are into creative stuff, you could say that about anyone having a normal work too, right? We all need money, but because I'm a game developer who want to sell stuff there's suddenly a major risk that I'll turn greedy and evil?
You have a point. *changes answer*
Edit: 42nd "Yay" vote for the win.
