If you've been watching the campaign, or missed the first email, we hit our target on Day 6 and since then have been climbing steadily past our first SIX stretch goals! We can still hit the Rogues' Gallery, but now's the time to get in for a final push.
Here's what we've unlocked thus far:
Well-- a lot actually!!
Can your favourite Scrabdacklian beat out the others for extra time in the spotlight? More details on the Kickstarter update post - but this event is LIVE so get in NOW!
The Waking Fossil was added as the first superboss of the game - and the reception has been incredible! The demo was downloaded just over 2,000 times during the past month alone, and the boss has been VERY warmly received as not just 'tough but fair', but also a ton of fun to battle against!
At least - I lost track at some point. There's actually too many to list anymore!
A few notable callouts: We got a Let's Play by Wanderbots early in the campaign, and an article by Alpha Beta Gamer midway-through. Both big content creators I followed before I started this project! Crazy!
(The full list, or at least all the ones I caught, is on Kickstarter in the update posts!)
We gave away three 'design your own something' Kickstarter content rewards - one landmark, one character, and one creature, all in a crazy "Hunger Games simulator" raffle on a 90-minute stream battle royale!
We're sitting at a cozy 430 or so folks right now, and the community has still managed to keep that cozy feeling despite having nearly doubled in a month! You're of course welcome to join us as well!
Peanut Wizard has been running in parallel on Twitter (as an image-based suggestion game) and on Youtube (as a text-based poll choice game) for a month, and has gotten pretty wild!
Join in by following Jake on Twitter, and following 2 Left Thumbs on Youtube! They're starting to wrap up, but it's not too late to get in and influence the story!
With the chance to create anything they wanted for Scrabdackle, 21 community members threw their hat in to design something for the game, voted on by the community! With 105 votes, we narrowed it down to three finalists, and then did a random draw to choose our winner! (Frogbo won, out of the pictured three finalists below!
I'll put those below, but before you keep scrolling, one last ask - please, check out the campaign on Kickstarter and help me make it the best game I can in these final hours!
This is my second and final mailing list push now that the campaign's wrapping up - thanks for your time and support, everyone.
And finally, the wrap-up - the video embed didn't work on the last email, so they'll just be links.
Um, and I honestly think I'm still missing a few. It's been a wild month.
