Good news! We’ve officially submitted the pledge manager for review, and everything is looking great so far. ✅
At the moment, we’re holding off on sending the smoke test because we’re still waiting for BackerKit to provide the finalized list of backers eligible for the exclusive Pintopia collaboration enamel pin. As soon as we receive that confirmation:
We’ll send out the smoke test
Then quickly follow with the full survey
✨ Our goal is to send surveys early next week. Thank you for your patience while we finalize this step — accuracy here ensures everyone receives the correct rewards.
🎲 The Purrfect Cure — Game Polish Update
We’ve also been hard at work refining The Purrfect Cure Print-and-Play card game. The visual design has been fully polished, and we’re excited to share a preview of the updated look. The cards now better reflect the tone, clarity, and charm of the enamel pin collection. What’s happening next:
Continued playtesting
Minor balance and clarity adjustments
Finalizing digital files
The digital PNP files will be delivered during fulfillment, as planned. We truly hope you’ll enjoy exploring this playful extension of the Little Kawaii Plague Doctor world.
Thank you again for your incredible support. We’re moving steadily forward and can’t wait to get everything into your hands (and printers!) soon. 🕯️✨
We’re in the final stretch with about 13 hours to go! 🕯️✨
To celebrate the amazing support from everyone, we’re officially ...
🎉 Unlocking the Final Stretch Goal and Upgrade the Exclusive Pintopia Collaboration Pin to 1.5"
That’s right! The exclusive Pintopia pin will be upgraded to the larger 1.5" size.
This means:
More detail
Stronger presence
Perfectly matched with the rest of the collection
Thank you for helping us reach this milestone!
📋 Pledge Manager Update
I’m currently working on submitting the pledge manager for review, but it didn’t process correctly. I’ve already contacted BackerKit support, and hopefully this will be resolved very soon.
Here’s the updated plan:
Once the issue is cleared, we’ll send a smoke test by the end of the week
A smoke test is a small test survey sent to a limited group of backers to ensure rewards, selections, and shipping settings are working correctly
If everything looks good, we’ll send the full survey to all backers over the weekend
💳 Payment Processing & Fulfillment Timeline
As planned:
By late February or early March, we’ll lock orders and begin processing payments
Fulfillment will begin immediately after payment processing
We’re moving quickly to keep everything on schedule.
🎲 Important Note for $1 Print-and-Play Backers
If you pledged for the $1 Print-and-Play (PNP) Game:
You will not receive a survey (no shipping info required)
We’ll send you a download link in mid-March
Simple and easy 😊
Thank you again for your incredible support, shares, and enthusiasm throughout the campaign. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.
Happy Friday! Check out the exclusive enamel pin! 😍
It’s finally here as a pre-production sample, and yes it’s super adorable. The colors, metal lines, and character details came out beautifully, and we’re really excited about how this one is shaping up.
If we reach the stretch goal, the pin will be upgraded from 1" to a larger 1.5" size, giving it more presence and detail. Let’s see if we can push it over the line together!
🎓 How to Receive the FREEEEEEEE Exclusive Pin (Animal Akademia)
This pin is part of the Animal Akademia Pintopia collaboration. To receive it, you’ll need to back three projects from the Animal Akademia banner (including ours ... The Little Kawaii Plague Doctor). You can explore all participating projects and learn more here:
It’s a fun way to discover new creators and unlock something special along the way.
📋 Pledge Manager & Timeline Update
We’re also preparing the pledge manager. Here’s what to expect:
Once the campaign funding is processed (within about two weeks after the campaign ends), we’ll send out a smoke test
A smoke test is a small test survey sent to a limited group of backers to make sure everything (rewards, shipping, add-ons, and selections) works correctly
About 2 days after the smoke test, we’ll send the full survey to all backers
Our goal is to have surveys out by the end of February
We plan to:
Lock orders, shipping info, and add-ons around mid-March
Begin fulfillment shortly after that and move into shipping
⏰ Final Stretch — 6 Days to Go!
We’re now six days away from the end of the campaign.
If you’ve enjoyed this project, please consider:
Sharing the campaign
Letting friends know
Helping us reach the final stretch goals
Every share truly helps. Thank you so much for your continued support. We’re almost at the finish line! 🕯️
In the pledge levels section (story), on the 'collect all' image, the first plague doctor. They're.... I can't make sense of what I'm looking at. I think the layers got mixed up, maybe? But I don't think they're supposed to look like.. a tree stump??
