Seriously. We never imagined that we would hit this amount of funding for The Primal Hunter: Deluxe Collector's Box Set! Cracking over a million dollars has humbled and touched the entire team working on this project.
Over the length of the campaign, we reached over 3,500 backers, and unlocked multiple stretch goals. We also hit the following milestones:
#16 Project on Backerkit across all categories
#12 Writing and Publishing Campaign across all crowdfunding*
#3 in the Writing and Publishing campaign on Backerkit
#1 Best birb unlocked 🐦
(*If you have any corrections to our achievements, let us know in the comments! There are a lot of projects to sift through.)
What's Next:
We will have a full update for backers re: next steps shortly. There will be a survey where we gather your information, preferences, and so on.
We'll be opening up the merch store next week, and you can see all of the Primal Hunter goodies we've been working on. This store is for backers only, so every piece is exclusive. You won't be able to get these items anywhere else!
More details to come, so stay tuned! And once again, thank you all. What a ride it has been!
Hunters! You did it! You kept the Backer Train running for over 5 hours! For completing the Overtime Mode Dungeon, we've unlocked the Warning Danger Noodle STL as an add-on, and we're including it in all Bloodline Patriarch and Primordial God tiers!
We're so excited to see how you hunters print and paint your very own statue of Villy!
So, What's Next?
We'll be opening up the merch store next week, and you can see all of the Primal Hunter goodies we've been working on. This store is for backers only, so every piece is exclusive. You won't be able to get these items anywhere else. More details to come, so stay tuned!
Thank you
Thank you so much for helping us finish this campaign off with so much energy and enthusiasm. The LitRPG crowd is truly a dedicated and amazing group! Stay tuned as we finish up closing out the campaign, and we'll be in touch with information on next steps.
If you have time, we'd love to hear about where you'd like to see The Primal Hunter expand next. Answer the poll to let us know!
The campaign is coming to a close! We are now in Overtime Mode! Every new pledge/add-on/upgrade extends the campaign for 10 additional minutes.
Here's that special guest special Overtime Mode Message from someone who is very connected to The Primal Hunter series - Travis Baldree (Kudos to teenybooch for getting that right, first guess!)
If you keep us in Overtime Mode for 5 hours, we'll drop one last bag of loot 👀
We'd also love to hear where you'd like to see The Primal Hunter expand next. Answer the poll to let us know!
By the way, Patreon and Primordial God backers should be able to see the pin and standee as add-ons now! Grab an extra one, just in case!
We’re officially in the final stretch - less than 48 hours left!
We just passed 3,300 backers and we’re this close 🤏 to hitting our next stretch goal at $1.25M. Thank you all for pushing The Primal Hunter: Deluxe Collector's Box Set toward such an incredible finish. We’re absolutely blown away.
Backers-Only Storefront
We're sure you're wondering when the store will be open. That will depend on if we go into overtime mode. Once overtime mode ends and the Backer Train times out, we'll open the store so you can view and purchase any of The Primal Hunter merch items your heart desires. We've been looking at your comments on what you want, and curating the store based off of your suggestions. Hop on over to the update and put in your 2 cents if you have more ideas. We can't cover EVERYTHING, but we're doing our best to get the most popular items in there.
One Last Surprise If We Go Into Overtime Mode!
As we reach the end of the campaign, we wanted to let you know that we will have a special Overtime Mode Message from someone who is very connected to The Primal Hunter series. Can you guess who? Make sure to check back in so you can listen!
The Primal Hunter started as a tiny web novel finding readers one chapter at a time. Now, thanks to you, it's grown into a full-blown million dollar crowdfund campaign. We are currently at $1,081,375 with over 3100 backers. Absolutely incredible.
The End is Near!
There are only 7 days left in this project, and at least one big milestone left: If we can push to $1.25 million before the campaign ends, we'll unlock the exclusive .STL file we've been teasing. There may also be a few more surprises in store 👀
If you've been watching from the sidelines, now's the moment to jump in before the campaign closes. If you're already backing, you can help push closer to the next unlock by sharing the campaign, tagging a friend who loves LitRPG and progression fantasy, or upgrading your pledge if you've been eyeing a higher tier. Every little boost helps to get closer to that next unlock.
Thank You Thank You Thank You!
We will never ever stop thanking you for getting us this far.
