Dropping in for an update on Greeting Games! As with previous updates, there are more details in my Dev Log (schedule, more on the survey mishap, etc), and below is a more concise summary.
Surveys are out! And mishap fixed!
First, the surveys have been out for about 2 weeks... but several required a reset due to some issues with a shipping calculation and a page that was added to the survey.
I appreciate both folks reporting concerns so I can know something needed fixing AND the patience with working through them.
Larger order holiday cards timing
I did get a question about when larger orders (25 of one kind), to make sure they'll arrive in time for folks using them for holiday cards.
These will be ordered in September, along with the other cards, and they'll likely arrive in late September to very early October. There's a good chance these will arrive before the other orders since they're shipping straight from the printer (which is why there's free US shipping).
If anyone wants to add a large box of cards to their order, there's an add-on option for US-located backers that can be added to the survey, and adding this won't increase your shipping cost if you're in the US.
-----
If you have any questions about the surveys, the quickest way to resolve is to email me at [email protected] since it goes straight to my inbox instead of waiting for it to shake hands with Backerkit to email me a comments summary. I'm just getting back into the swing of things from GenCon, so I will be going through all emails and my spam box today to make sure I'm not missing any.
Just a quick update to let you know that the late orders store is live and surveys are on their way soon! Details are below, and you can also get an update (with extra pictures) here in today's TTRPGkids Dev Log.
Pre-order store is open!
If you missed the campaign or couldn’t back at the time it was running, you can sign up here to pre-order and get surveys along with the rest of the campaign backers.
Most of the campaign pledge level options are available from the drop down list, and, if you prefer to access the add-ons only or just want to get notified when surveys are available, I recommend selecting the $1 Stamp of Support tier so you can browse and decide later.
Surveys incoming!
The survey is under review with the Backerkit team and smoke test surveys should be going out to a few folks VERY soon (possibly today or tomorrow). If there's no issues there, the rest of the surveys will be out a few days later, so keep an eye on your inboxes!
List + graphics to help with picking options
Because there are a lot of options to pick from for your cards and I was a little limited on space in some cases, I've created a list of all the available cards in today's TTRPGkids Dev Log post to help out. There's also a graphic from the campaign, and I'll be sending out another update once more of the stretch goal art is in (so you can get a better idea of the different card designs).
If you have any questions about the surveys once they are out, the quickest way to resolve is to email me at [email protected] since it goes straight to my inbox instead of waiting for it to shake hands with Backerkit to send me comments summary. I hope there's no issues, but I'll be keeping a special eye on the inbox on survey launch day, so don't hesitate to reach out.
I wanted to give a quick status update on all the cards and what to expect in the next month or two!
Right now, mechanics have been playtested and artists have been kicked off! Next up, my goal is to get the surveys out to everyone before the end of July so that I know what quantities of each card I'll need to order as soon as art is done.
My overall current timeline is here, so you know what the whole plan is, and I'll keep you updated as things roll along toward fulfillment!
July: Talk to Backerkit about pre-order store for late backers
July: Send out surveys
Aug: Finalize art
Aug: Collect payment and lock addresses
Aug: Order cards based on final quantities
Sept: Ship cards to backers
Oct/Nov: Fulfillment for bonus zine game (digital + POD codes)
I also have a post here with a summary of this project and my next... along with a peek at the art-prompt prototype for one of the cards:
Thank you all for participating in the voting, and I'm looking forward to getting these cards out to you! My current plan is to kick off artists once I get back from Origins Game Fair and send out surveys in July so I can get final counts for ordering.
There's more details here in today's Dev Log update:
