A lot of folks have asked here and elsewhere when the Pledge Manager will be open, and I know we've mentioned dates we've hoped to have it by. The simple answer - the Pledge Manager will open once the game is fully submitted to the factory and ready for print. Until then, all of our focus will be on making that happen!
PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: A good first turn! Let's play some more :D
Hello friends, associates, innovationauts, and puppers*!
It has been a little over 24 hours, and it's been a great first day for Innovation Ultimate. Over 1500 backers, $100K raised, triple our goal, and some pretty ridiculous games of Innovation that we streamed online. If you missed the streams, worry not, we'll be doing more soon!
As the card demands, I'd like to thank each and every person who's chosen to support our project here on BackerKit - you all are the reason we make games, and you're also the reason we're able to make games. We're thrilled that so many folks still enjoy a game that was built almost 15 years ago now, and one that we're very excited to upgrade.
Happy Wednesday, everyone!

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Production Complete! Timelines and Dates - Last chance for pre-orders/changes
Production is complete on Innovation Ultimate! It will be on a boat next week, arriving in the US at the end of January (and similar to our hubs in the EU and Australia). So fulfillment will be happening in February for most folks.
This is the final final call for new pre-orders or order changes, I'll be closing the pre-order store next week.
Any pre-orders or add-ons that haven't been charged yet, and many store orders with cases will be charged on January 3rd. I'll be locking down those orders soon, and locking in those addresses once final charges have been made.
If your order or address was already locked and you need it changed, please send an email directly to [email protected] with whatever you want updated and the info of your new address, including any phone number change if outside the US. I've got a handful of emails in my inbox to process.
Happy Holidays all, excited for this to get to your tables finally! I am again sorry for the delays in production, but we're glad to be near the finish line.

Hearing that production is complete made me instantly worried about all the mistakes. Here's hoping it's better this time! A lot of errata was in Deluxe :/ Crossing fingers!
PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: A Box! A PAX! A Schedule-ish?
At long last, we have a sample of a completed production-run copy of Innovation Ultimate! The rest of the contents you've seen already (these are 99% the same but from the actual presses), but the box top, you have not yet seen! Behold the shiny:
Pictures, of course, don't convey how it looks in person, so this video shows it in motion:
Ivy, as always, big helper.
I still do not have a completion date from the factory. I'm assuming sometime in the next 2-3 weeks, at which point it will get on to boats to various regions. This of course means folks will not be receiving it until January or February depending on location. Honestly...we had expected to be fully fulfilled and selling copies at PAX Unplugged this weekend. It is very disappointing to be let down by factory world, but it is what it is. In the end, the box is awesome, the contents are awesome, and you're all getting the definitive Innovation experience! And for that, I am glad.
I will share more when I know more. Thanks as always for your patience!
PAX
We will be at PAX Unplugged in booth 3133, demoing this, ODD: Relics of the Forge, Good Puppers Too (surprise beta printing!), 1001 Odysseys, and the top secret prototype we've been poking at for months - Mystic Curling Club. You didn't know you needed a magical dexterity curling game with sliding/rolling dice down a board, but it turns out everyone needs it - and it's a lot of fun.
There's also a chess set hiding on the edge of that table, which Carl and I have been playing with a lot. Hmmmmm :)
It's coming with me to PAX U also, but only for toppest secret use. But if you ask nicely on Sunday afternoon maybe it'll make an appearance!
