Greetings Nicolas,
I believe what you're looking for is the Feature Bounty System: https://www.ventdev.com/fbs You can find links to Patreon and Paypal there when it reopens.
Currently fund raising for the FBS is closed. The entire system was originally designed to mostly give work to my artist based in Ukraine. With me doing a discounted programming bounty or two every milestone while I mostly work on our next game, AeroMogul. However, because of the war in Ukraine, I have had to take over the entire workload to cover for my artist being unable to work.
Unfortunately, almost everything programming wise is discounted in the FBS. And covering the workload it has taken up 50-80% of my time, which has seriously delayed AeroMogul. So, starting a few versions ago, I have put 6-12 month long pauses between fund raising, so I can get some work done on my new game.
Right now, were in one of those periods. The FBS should re-open in about 6 months. At that time, you can contribute and sign up.
There are only 2 more milestones that will be open for contributions. One mid-this year, the other mid-next year. After which the FBS will be closed until my artist can resume working full time. GearCity: 2nd Gear, the expansion that the FBS has mostly funded, will be released for free after that point.
I suggest sticking around, either subscribe to the news forum here, so you get an email when it resumes. Alternatively you can follow on Patreon for free, subscribe to our GearCity Reddit, follow me on Twitter, or join our IRC/Discord. I'll be announcing when it resumes on all of these platforms.
Mine is probably worse!
