As of the time of launch, the PDF for Undoing Ruin will be finished sans the accreditation of backers. Once the campaign is finished and all backers are properly credited in the book, the PDF will be delivered to all backers of Administrator level or higher. Rather than funding the creation of the game itself, the funds raised by this campaign will go towards financing the initial run of print copies for the game, to be sold through distributors online and potentially at conventions (TBA). Based on projections from said distributors, the funding goal of the campaign should allow for enough of a profit margin once the initial run's funding has been expended to provide enough liquidity to finance future runs.

If funding is successful, some minor changes will be needed to be made, accounting for the crediting of backers and additions of any backer-created content. This process should hopefully only take a couple of weeks. From there, a proof will need to be made of the print version, and from there things should be good to launch. The hope is that digital copies of the final book will be sent to backers by the end of 2024, and the physical prints will ship in Q1 2025.

BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.

If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.

Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.

1. Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
2. Select any add-ons
3. Confirm your pledge!

• You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
• Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.

After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey to pay for any applicable shipping fees, calculated based on your shipping address.

Pay Over Time allows you to split your pledge into multiple payments over a set period. Your card will be charged according to the payment schedule (four monthly payments). Only available for projects that enable this feature. Learn More »

Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.

You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.

Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.

For specific questions about your pledge or the project, you can view the Project FAQ below, search for your answer within the project, or send a message to the BackerKit Support Team or to the project creator.
