Join the first Hold'em Vowels pioneers
Hold'em Vowels started as a physical game idea I could not let go of, and developing it as a web app has turned into something bigger than a solo build. Patreon is where I want to gather the first believers: the people who want to help shape the game early, champion it, and build the first real community around it.
I want to build this with pioneers, not spectators.
The main site is where anyone can jump in and play. Patreon is where I can share the messy middle of the build, invite feedback before decisions harden, and grow a small early community that helps Hold'em Vowels find its identity.
✦keep the game open and accessible to everyone
✦bring early supporters into the build process
✦turn first believers into the foundation of the community
Supporters are stepping into a real beta, not a polished final launch.
Hold'em Vowels is already live and playable, but the hosting setup is still in its first phase. That means there may be occasional downtime, reconnect hiccups, short maintenance windows, or resets while I keep improving stability and work toward a more permanent production setup.
I want to be upfront about that from the start. Early support helps the game grow faster, but clear expectations are part of protecting trust while the project is still finding its footing.
✦live and playable now, with bots and Friends tables
✦occasional rough edges while hosting is still in its early phase
✦support now helps move the game toward a steadier long-term home
Why Patreon
Patreon gives me a platform to provide for the people who want more than just a web game. It creates a place for conversation, momentum, and a shared interest while the game is still taking shape.
If you join early, you are not just backing hosting or polishing the UI. You are helping prove there is a real community here, and that matters when a new game is trying to grow.
