Project FAQ
Currently the base game is ready to play, and I have designs ready for the additional game modes. These game modes will require some playtesting, but the quick nature of the game means these will only take a few weeks at most to iron out. The digital version of the game should be ready around a month after the project funds arrive in my account sometime at the end of April. The print copy of the game will take a few months to be ready, mostly because I need to wait on print proofs shipped from DriveThruRPG which can be subject to delays outside my control. All told I estimate that it should take 3-6 months after the project funds for all rewards to be ready to ship to backers.
Once the campaign is concluded and I have received funds from backers, I will reach out to those who ordered any TTRPG add-ons for their mailing addresses. I will be sending zines out myself using regular letter mail from Canada. Typically these take a week to arrive in Canada and the USA, and up to a month outside those countries, though usually it only takes a few weeks. Keeping shipping costs low means that there will be no tracking for these.
BackerKit FAQ
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.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
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.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
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.
