Discount on some complementary products
The featured products (shown at the bottom of the MapForge site's homepage) have just been changed. I decided to feature (and discount) some products that complement the offerings of this BackerKit campaign.

What do you all think? Will this campaign fund in the last 9 days?
I've done about all I can in regards to getting the word out on social media (Facebook, X, Reddit, Instagram, and MeWe). If you happen across any of my posts, give it a Like, or better yet, make a comment. That often brings an older post back up to the top, thereby increasing ...

Project Update: Work has begun in earnest

Since the day after this campaign ended, I've been plugging away at creating another Add-On in this collection ("Graveyard/Cemetery").I'm happy to say it's now complete. The final asset count is 106.

Here's a peek at how it turned out, and to show how some of the bits fit together.



So that's 3 Add-Ons completed so far, leaving 11 Add-Ons to go.

I just started in on the "Mines" Add-On today, and hope to have it done before Monday.

After that, production of the Add-Ons will start taking a day or two longer for each, as the remaining sets will have a higher asset count.

By the way, it looks like everyone's pledges went through OK (i.e., no credit card transactions were declined), so that's great. I just hope the funds find their way to my LLC's bank account soon, since I'm now living off an advance/loan.

Project Update: Made it! Funding goal reached!

There's still a little over 40 hours to go before the campaign ends. Let's see if we can bring in a bit more.

Read this Update that I posted to my largest Kickstarter campaign to learn about a spiffy new feature I'll be adding to MapForge v1.3.9, thanks to this campaign having reached its funding goal.

Some observations about this campaign:
  • As far as I can tell, this campaign has only brought in one new MapForge user (everyone else is a prior backer), so I really need to improve on drawing in new users.
  • Almost no one pledged for just a couple of Add-Ons, which is a bit surprising. On the other hand, it's incredibly awesome that nearly everyone pledged for EVERYTHING.
  • And very few backers pledged over the minimum to qualify for the 14th Add-On (Junkyard) if they weren't early-bird backers.
