About Stanislav "Farlander" Costiuc
Hi! My name is Stanislav Costiuc. I am a Game Designer with more than 9 years of experience, including lead positions at Ubisoft. During my free time, I work on this channel: Farlands Design Den!
WHAT IS FARLANDS?
Farlands Design Den is a game design channel with a pretty big history of experimentation with formats (all of which you can check out in a playlist here), but ultimately focused now mainly on in-depth critique of video games using my professional expertise and a personal scoring system I call the Stasocritic.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BEING A PATRON?
If you support my channel with 1$/month, you'll get access to a Discord server where we discuss games and game design, and you're free to share any of your work in progress projects so we could provide feedback and discuss potential improvements. You also get listed in videos credits and get access to scripts long before videos are done!
For 3$/month you'll get early access to all my videos!
And for 5$/month you will be able to suggest games/franchise that will go in my queue of a 'to do' list.
LINK TO THE CURRENT PATRON SUGGESTION LIST/CURRENTLY PLANNED VIDEO RELEASE ORDER
WHY DO I NEED THE MONEY?
Quite frankly, student loans. I still have to pay them for the next 7 years, which sinks my budget and prevents me from upgrading/purchasing equipment that could improve my workflow (ranging from additional SSDs for footage storage to a more efficient capture card - there's nothing preventing me from doing quality videos now but there's always things to improve and corners that could be simplified). With your help I can stop worrying about the loans and make even better videos and more comfortably.
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE US TO KNOW?
Yes. I have a full-time design job, which means everything that is related to this channel I'm doing in my free time. I am devoting as much time as possible to the channel and Patreon, and try to keep a minimum of two videos per month, however depending on what is going on at work and in life, my activity can either speed up or slow down, so please keep that in mind if you're thinking of pledging. Regardless, thanks for your support!

Goals
CA$38 of CA$696.07 per month
When I reach this goal I will be able to cover my still on-going student loans that I still have to pay for the next several years. Which means I will be able to more comfortably save money for newer games and more equipment upgrades.
