For indie game developers
Let visitors support your work where they already experience it.
SupportTheWork fits indie game developers who share devlogs, prototypes, demos and community builds on their own website and want a small, voluntary support prompt without sending people to another profile.
For your own websites, portfolios, project pages and free content.
Use cases
Offer support at the moment your work is understood.
A full shop or paid community is often too heavy for voluntary support. A focused widget keeps the ask close to the value people just received.
Open resources
Keep useful material freely accessible and still give visitors a clear way to say thank you.
Project pages
Place support beside the project, release, article or showcase that created the value.
Ongoing work
Explain how voluntary support helps with updates, maintenance and the next public release.
Workflow
From website content to support prompt in a few steps.
You decide where the widget appears, what it says and which amounts make sense for your audience.

Ideas
Ideas for indie game developers.
These placements work well because visitors see the value before the support prompt appears.
| Website area | Support prompt | Why it fits |
|---|---|---|
| Resource page | “If this helped you, support future free resources.” | The value is clear right after the visitor used the material. |
| Project update | “Support the next update.” | Readers understand that ongoing work takes time. |
| Download section | “Download for free, support voluntarily.” | The download stays open while support remains optional. |
| About page | “Like this work? Help keep it independent.” | Returning visitors get a simple support path. |
In short
For indie game developers, support works best close to the work.
SupportTheWork keeps your website central and gives visitors a direct way to support what they already value.
