Project Update: Tea Pets: Only 60 hours left + new stretch goal vote!

Happy weekend, explorers!
We're now in the last 60 hours of the campaign!

We just unlocked our next stretch goal, so welcome to the Verdant Isles, Pumpkin Tortoise! Should we have been surprised that the hare got out to a quick lead, but was then surpassed by slow but steady voting for the tortoise??

Read more about our two most recently unlocked tea pets here:

Miniature Tiger
This domesticated cat descended from a fierce lineage of Amberhaven tigers which typically grow to six to seven feet in length. These miniature tigers, however, grow only to 12 to 24 inches. They come in a variety of colored stripes, having lost their evolutionary need for camouflage long ago. Despite their often quite comfy lives poking around farms and in the alleys behind restaurants, they still retain many of the hunting tendencies of their ancestors. They enjoy pouncing on dust bunnies whenever they spot them, and flower dragons know very well to keep their distance. Tea pet caretakers also know not to delay a Miniature Tiger's dinner by too long unless they would like to feel miniature claws coming into contact with their ankles.

Pumpkin Tortoise
Much beloved during Evenfall and other autumn holidays, the Pumpkin Tortoise is best known for its Astra-infused illuminations. These gentle creatures tend to grow to about two feet in length, and their knobby shells provide a subtle, flickering glow at night. Depending on the age and size of the tortoise, this effect most resembles the carved turnips, gourds, or pumpkins that many children and adults throughout the Isle carve each Evenfall. It is said in northern Alpengreen that spotting a Pumpkin Tortoise on Evenfall can actually indicate a mild winter between Evenfall and the Feast of Flourish in March.

What's next? We have a brand new vote for TWO tea pet pals! If we hit $75,000 before the end of the campaign, we'll add not one but two tea pets who just so happen to hang out in the same biome together.

For your consideration:
Pocket Otters & Sun Clams
These otters are known for storing all manner of items in their pockets, especially shiny trinkets like watches and keys. And wherever you find Pocket Otters, you're also likely to find Sun Clams too. These little ocean dwellers change color based on the time of day.

Blue Pandas & Green Pandas
No doubt the Red Panda deserves all of the love that it gets, but have you heard of its cousins the Blue Panda and Green Panda? They're just as feisty as their more popular relative!

Chef Bear & Bumble Sloth
High up in the Umberleap mountains, you just might happen to smell the aroma of a bear hard at work roasting honeyed vegetables on hot rocks. That's the Chef Bear of course, nature's greatest natural culinary expert, and there's a good chance that they got that honey from a friendly Bumble Sloth and the bees that it carries around on its back.

We're super curious to see where your votes take us next! Don't forget that you can also help unlock the Social Butterfly tea pet by sharing out the campaign page on social media and tagging us in your posts.

As always, thank you for all of your support as we come into these final two days of the campaign. For projects like this from indie publishers like us, we just couldn't make it happen without your support. 

Stay cozy,
Snowbright
