Chess of Blades Kickstarter Countdown: + ~3 days?

Hey everyone, gamma here today with 12 minutes to spare before the day is over. We had a huge work party today (7:30am donut and chip pickup, 8-6 work with 1hr lunch break) to get the Kickstarter and Greenlight campaigns ready. While we were happily working away (not that happily…the Kickstarter editor isn't exactly the best), we discovered………that we forgot Kickstarter has to review your campaign for up to 3 business days before it can go live. SOOOOO Chess of Blades has a *slight* delay in its Kickstarter launch. But rest assured, it will be launched this week!!! In the meantime, have a preview of the campaign's banners and play the demo!

Play the demo!

We have a #spoilers and #bug_and_feedback channel in our Discord, so come hang out and report back your experience!

Kickstarter and Greenlight Campaigns!

Need we say anything more?

You can also play the demo now on our itch page!

Have a sad Rivian while you hesitate to support us :(

COB Kickstarter Update #1

We've reached $2k on Kickstarter and almost 240 "yes" votes on Greenlight, and we're hoping to still pick up speed! Thanks so much to all of you who already supported us!

As we charge headfirst into energizing our campaigns, we're still working hard on other assets for the game, as well as fun fanart! Below, you can enjoy a look at a sweet scene between the normally-cranky Linnaeus and Rivian, courtesy of our artist Mizu!

If you can, support our Thunderclap by just signing in on your Tumblr! It'll really help us push for funding when we get close to the end of the campaign.

We're up to 2.6k raised on Kickstarter and 290 "yes" votes on Greenlight, and we're hoping to still pick up speed! Thanks so much to all of you who already supported us!

Today, we're showing off the awesome fanart of our artist Mizu! This time, she drew a younger Arden, looking as badass as they come. The trail of blood behind him suggests he's just had an encounter with some enemies, and came out the victor.

The quote "No one will lay a finger on you while I'm here…" is from the trailer, and a core part of Arden's attitude towards Rivian. While usually cute and warm enough to be labeled a "puppy" by his fans (i.e. us in the Discord), he's definitely not someone to be taken lightly just because of his personality.

New Banner image and a real big teaser hoho

Handy Dandy Rewards Chart!

We've narrowed down the voice actors to the Top 2-3. It was a difficult process, but after going through 500+ auditions over 2 days (~6 hours total), it is done!

You can vote for your favorite actors over on the Kickstarter.
