Become a sponsor to Robert Rose

Introduction

Heyo! I'm Rob Rose and I like to spend my weekends and free-time doing open source software development.

Some of the stuff I like to work on includes:

  • Python 🐍
  • JAMStack πŸ₯
  • Rimworld Mods
  • Rimworld Mod Tooling

Sponsorware

I'm currently exploring developing side projects as sponsorware. Essentially this means that projects are only available to sponsors until I reach a sponsor goal, at which point I'll release them as open source. This isn't for all the code I write nor is all the code I write sponsorware, but this does allow me to test the viability of certain projects before omitting to supporting them in-perpetuity. Each time I approach a goal, I'll let sponsors vote on which project they'd like to see released next.

Backlog

  • a series of Rimworld GitHub Template Mods
  • Expanding RimCI to allow for easier publishing
  • A JAMStack link shortener
  • A bunch of different hackathon projects
  • A mod bringing the world of Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood into Rimworld
  • A mod adding trains to Rimworld
  • A mod adding power lines and distribution to Rimworld
  • A JAMStack Freelancing Site

Why Support Me

I'm not a terribly good artist, so most of the assets for my Rimworld mods need to be commissioned from artists! That gets expensive and right now it's all coming out of my own pocket. I'd like to be able to get to the point where my mods are at least self-sustaining.

@RobRoseKnows

Mean I can actually justify spending a lot of time working on modding for Rimworld and random other open source projects. I hope this is the beginning of something great!
