Nice stream and your openness and honesty to the process is very refreshing. I am in the UK/EU and I have done several of your kickstarters as 1: you always deliver 2: you offer lots of nice add ons that enhance the game purchase 3: your updates are accurate. I appreciate the use of second chance games in the UK in helping reduce the costs . The communtiy is small and great to see you looking after us.
Thank you! We pride ourselves on our honesty and consistency! We are always looking for ways to be more transparent with our fans and also optimize what we can do for them (especially with shipping costs).
I definitely reflect the, "respond to the art/how it looks" first, and then examine mechanics, etc. Thanks for validating my behavior!!!!! 😁 And STALKER the Boardgame got a lot of my money too!!!!! Nick Stasnoplis
One thing I look at in regard to "funded in"- is whether it seems to be a manufactured number or a true number. I have a sense of what the true game is intended to be, then take that pledge level and multiply by 500 (backers). I've seen enough "funded" campaigns cancel when they didn't pull in enough money to actually produce the game. It changes my perception of the accountability of the company.
Thanks for the insights on running a KS from your perspective. It was very informative. I'm not a prolific crowdfunding backer but I have backed some (including several Flying Pig games).
Great show as always. Also stretch goals allow for costumer input. Every once in a while a new, terrific and popular idea will literally come out of left field. And, instead of waiting for an expansion, that may or may not ever be created, it can be added to the original game as a stretch goal and make a good game, a great game.
Thanks, we are always trying to optimize shipping. Second Chance Games carries our games in the UK as well…but we do appreciate your support on our campaigns! 🐷💥🎲
Great job you two crazy kids! Very interesting info.
Thanks! This is basically our daily phone call to each other, but a little less chaotic 😂
Thanks, Herm.

I’m glad I’m not the only one! I felt a bit shallow admitting that but it’s god’s truth! 😂💥🐷🎲

Thanks, Fred!! I agree, I think stretch goals can open an opportunity for creative, out of the box, game ideas! 💥🐷🎲
Finally backed you guys…it’s tough in UK due to shipping, but really looking forward to 65 and Chickamauga
