Our launch campaign on BackerKit is officially coming to a close. Whether you've been with us for years, months or minutes: thank you for joining, and for bringing this game to life!
What We've Done This Campaign
First off, we funded The Big Squeeze campaign!
We unlocked Tori, the Pine Lane Legend as a permanent addition to the game
We officially named Pumpkin, Dinah's Cat
We chose the Constellations to be included in the Launch and Collector's Edition mini-expansion
We unlocked the final stretch goal: Mike, the Prophet added to all copies of The Big Squeeze
We unlocked highlights for 6 characters: Evelyn, Dinah, Tori, Billy, Carol, and Mike
It's been a great time watching it all unfold with you over these last few weeks, and I'm already looking forward to the next steps of this project. For a refresher on what that entails...
Our Next Steps
Most of this happens concurrently rather than sequentially.
Final Playtesting to harmonize and polish the stretch goal characters, mini-expansion, and base game
Final UI and UX, where we'll do things like label "In Stock / Sold", update rules wording, and make file layouts
The Pledge Manager will collect your name and shipping info, and it'll let you review your order in case you want to update your pledge or add-ons before it's locked in. This is when the W3D Insider bonus applies. Don't panic when you don't see it right now, it's coming!
Print Preparation where we upload final files to Panda, our manufacturer for this game
Updating our Factory Quote so we can officially pay Panda and start production
Until you receive your game, you can expect consistent updates on our progress, even if it's simply "Nothing is wrong, manufacturing still moving as planned".
Your Next Steps
Get yourself some lemonade and feel proud for your part in shaping this game and making it real!
Once we send the Pledge Manager, be sure to complete it so we can actually ship your game to you.
