August 19 2019:Cheat Engine Patreon, because why not

I‘ve decided to join Patreon. If you wish to donate and you don‘t like paypal or bitcoin then this is an alternate way to support Cheat Engine
Currently there‘s not much there but in the future I‘ll be adding some extras like special ranks in the forum, custom builds, pre-releases while stuff is being verified/certified, and other stuff.
