Project Update: Magestar: Now Shipping

Kia ora koutou, 

The final proof came back perfect. Look at these gorgeous spreads! 
You know what that means? Shipping time!

If you've completed your survey (which the vast majority of you have), you'll receive an email with your tracking information later this week. It's so exciting receiving zines in the mail! Might need to order something myself...

As always, reach out if you have any questions or concerns! Today I found out I forgot to give someone a code for their Nowhere Home add-on- mistakes happen and are usually easily addressed. 

Ngā mihi for your patience and support, 

Sam

Project Update: Good news and bad news!

The good news? Magestar proofs have arrived! They're looking nice as a whole.

Magestar: Slayer playbook
Magestar: Game Setup

The bad news? The grid on the middle pages isn't formatted correctly. Also, you can see right through these pages- no way am I shipping rewards in this state! I'll adjust the grid and order another proof (this time on coated paper to reduce the bleedthrough.) Hopefully this next one will be backer-worthy and I can get your copies shipped out!

Thanks for your patience and support, 

Sam

Project Update: Backer Surveys

Kia ora koutou, 

Most of you have responded to the backer survey and received your digital rewards. The physical proof is on its way to me as I write, so fingers crossed we'll have physical rewards headed your way before too long as well!

If you haven't received your survey for Magestar, please check your spam folder. If you still can't see it, or have any problems, get in touch! You can contact me as always at [email protected], or just comment below. 

Ngā mihi nui, 

Sam

Project Update: Smoke Test: Sent

Kia ora koutou, 

Backerkit advises creators to do what's called a 'smoke test' before sending surveys. As a result, a very small number of you should have just received surveys from this campaign! Once you've filled them out and I can confirm those are working as intended, the rest of you will receive yours. 

Thanks for the support, 

Sam

Project Update: Campaign's Over- what next?

Kia ora tatou! Thanks again for the massive show of support. It's more than I'd hoped for for my little game and I'm beyond thankful. With so many of you being first time Backerkit customers I suppose you're wondering: what's next?

Let me run you through it! 

Backers will receive their surveys March 15th (give or take a day or two.) Once these are completed, digital rewards will be emailed immediately! You'll receive codes to redeem digital rewards through itch.io. At the same time I'll order my physical proof of Magestar from lulu.com, to make sure the zine is looking its best before backer copies are mailed out. Once I've confirmed all is fine and dandy, physical rewards will be printed and shipped! I've estimated April 24th to be on the safe side, but they'll likely be sent out earlier. =)

Any questions? Hit me up in the comments or email [email protected]!

Ngā mihi, 

Sam
