Wow! Thank you for helping reach that first $600 dollar goal! So, where too next? That money plus a little extra... a lotta extra, but it's my hobby, have gone directly towards keeping the asset creators going. It's time to upgrade the resources. Hikari's been accused of looking like 5 year old technology. Well that's being kind. Currently the whole thing is being rendered on a pair of 1080ti's. While arguably the best graphics cards of all time, for their time, they are now 8 years old. So I'm looking to set a $400 a month income benchmark that will go directly towards the hardware in addition to purchasing new assets to be used! You guys are awesome! Thank you for your generosity! Lets make fantastic Visual Novels together! Thank you!

Looking at upgrading the hardware, perhaps to support AI for future projects. The current pair of machines being used for Hikari have been around for 8 years now and although have been upgraded, they are reaching the end of their serviceable lives. These both originally cost $600 lol and came with GTX1050's. Not bad for the price. Since then they've both been upgraded with GTX 1080ti's (I love them), and 128GB of ram. But they are using 9 year old Ryzen 3's and pretty outdated motherboards. A mediocre new PC w/ Ryzen 7 and a 5080 is running about 3k right now... god lord.... a Ryzen 9 w/ a 5090 is twice that?! Ok so hopefully prices will be more affordable when we reach this goal! Thank you for supporting my work, may it be Hikari: First Interlude or whatever has come next!
