Greetings, Adventurers!

I’m thrilled to share that, thanks to your incredible support, we’ve hit our $3,600 stretch goal! This means Duelgeon will now be printed in style with premium 350 GSM Blackcore card stock, giving the cards a more luxurious feel and top-notch durability for countless epic play sessions. You’ve made this upgrade possible, and I can’t thank you enough!
What’s Next? Our next stretch goal is at $4,200, and it’s a great one: a custom-molded plastic insert for the game box! This insert will be designed to perfectly hold all your components, with dedicated spaces for any minis or extras you might want to carry!  It’ll make setup a breeze and keep everything organized and protected for your adventures. If you have any suggestions for additional extras you’d want space for in the insert, I’d love to hear them in the comments! We’re at $3,600—just $600 away from unlocking this at $4,200!
Help Us Spread the Word! We’re so close to the next goal, and every share or comment helps boost the signal for Duelgeon! If you can spread the word on social media or with your gaming groups, it would mean the world to me. We’ve also got some exciting events coming up:
Live Streams: We’ll be doing a game play stream on Twitch this Sunday, March 23rd at 6pm PST—watch us battle it out in an epic game!
WonderCon Demos: We’ll be running demos at WonderCon, March 28-30, at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, CA. If you’re in the area, stop by, say hi, and try out the game—I’d love to meet you! Thank you all for your amazing support. You’re helping bring Duelgeon to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined, and I’m so grateful to have you all on this journey with me. Let’s keep the momentum going and make that molded insert a reality! 

With gratitude,
