Why Patreon?

The GMTK Digest is delivered to your email inbox via Patreon.

Using Patreon means your subscription is backed by a reputable company with support staff and easy refunds. And it’s better for Mark, too: 95% of your pledge goes directly to Game Maker’s Toolkit.

If you don’t want to use Patreon, you can also get the Digest through Substack (though it’s slightly more expensive and you won’t get the other perks).
