I’m thrilled to announce the upcoming release of my Unity 3D asset, ‘Authentication for Patreon’. This game-changing tool is the first plugin in the Unity Asset Store that seamlessly integrates the Patreon API V2 (via OAuth V2) into your Unity app or game. With Patronage Authenticator, you can easily create a paywall around your premium features, limit access to exclusive content, and build a stronger community around your project.

One of the standout features of ‘Authentication for Patreon’ is its unique interactive setup guide. Using the generator_script.html and custom_prompts.html, you can generate tailored prompts specific to your circumstances, username, IP address, and more. This allows you to create customized commands that are verified to work 100% via simple copy-pasting. This means that anyone with basic technical knowledge can integrate this workflow into their project in under an hour. No more tedious server setup or complicated coding required!

‘Authentication for Patreon’ fetches the MemberID and TierID of the user, enabling you to restrict access to premium features and create a paywall around your app. To minimize privacy policy complications, the Backend only passes on TierIDs corresponding to the creator’s UUID. This ensures that sensitive information remains secure and protected.

Patronage Authenticator also boasts an array of security features, including:

• Flask Rate Limiter functionality to prevent abuse and DDOS attacks
• Client-side rate limiting for added protection
• HTTPS support for secure communication (with HTTP setup available for debugging purposes)

The Backend is designed to be cost-efficient, requiring only a DigitalOcean backend droplet (starting at $4/month) and a domain (which can be a non-SEO friendly, gibberish domain). This keeps monthly costs well below $10 and often even $5 in certain circumstances. ‘Authentication for Patreon’ can also be used to restrict beta access to certain tiers or members, and even allows for offline authentication with a specified time limit.

With ‘Authentication for Patreon’, you can encrypt sensitive information like client IDs with just one click via AES256 in the Unity editor. Additionally, the optional offline authentication feature grants users access after a successful online authentication for a specified amount of time or days, using a timestamp verified by the Google NTP server.

‘Authentication for Patreon’ has the potential to empower Patreon creators, game developers, and anyone looking to create awesome community projects. By providing a seamless and secure way to integrate Patreon benefits into your Unity projects, it can help you build stronger, more engaged communities while generating revenue and supporting your creative endeavors.

Stay tuned for the release of ‘Authentication for Patreon’ and discover how this powerful tool can transform your community-building and monetization strategies.
