More Kittens

And they're off!
over 5 years ago – Wed, Aug 12, 2020 at 08:10:42 AM

Today I dropped off all of the physical rewards at the post office, for all backers who completed their Backerkit survey. Once they're scanned and processed, you should be getting a notice from Backerkit with your tracking information. 

The US Postal Service is currently experiencing delays due to staffing and procedure changes implemented by the new Postmaster. You can read more about this here: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/31/us/politics/trump-usps-mail-delays.html In light of this, we ask for your patience with getting your rewards delivered. If two weeks (domestic) or two months (international) go by without receiving your rewards, then let us know and we'll get things sorted out.

I hope everyone enjoys More Kittens. Feel free to tag our Twitter account, @playglittercats, if you post about playing games from the book -- we love to hear from you!

PDFs are here!

At long last, the PDF version of More Kittens is available! If you backed at a level that gets you a PDF, you should be getting an email from Backerkit with instructions on downloading the PDF version of More Kittens along with your copy of Laser Kittens.

Meanwhile, a revised file went to the printer, so physical copies are being produced as we speak. I'll update with shipping information as it happens.

Proofs!

Just a quick note to let everyone know that the proof of the book arrived from the printer. It looks pretty good on a quick flip-through, but we're going to do a real copyediting pass before we give the green light to print them all. If you haven't filled out your Backerkit survey yet, you still have a few days to do so and get your name in the book. (If you miss the deadline you'll still get your book, we just won't be able to credit you.)

Printing moving ahead -- last call on surveys
almost 6 years ago – Mon, Jun 15, 2020 at 09:42:08 PM

We appreciate everyone's patience as we dealt with all of the disruptions to life from the covid-19 pandemic. With Allegheny County shifting to the "green" phase of Pennsylvania's reopening plan, our printer is able to get supplies and produce books again. I've placed our order for the More Kittens books and sent in the files to get a proof made. Once I see the proof, I'll have a chance to make any last-minute changes before I get everything printed. That will also be the last opportunity to get your name included in our backers list -- so if you haven't responded to the Backerkit survey, you have until the end of the month (June 30) to do so!

Surveys sent!

We got the kinks worked out in Backerkit, and so you all should be receiving your survey soon. On Backerkit you'll have the option to add additional products -- so if (for example) you only got the PDF but now you want the cards too, you can add them easily. We've also set up a preorder store, so if you have friends who missed the KS campaign who want to get in on the action, point them to https://more-kittens.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

If you don't get it in the next day or so, or if you lose the email, you can go to https://more-kittens.backerkit.com/ and get access to your survey. Right now we're looking at shipping physical rewards in mid-late April, depending on how whether we need to do multiple rounds of proofs with the printer.

Today is the one-year anniversary of the end of the More Kittens funding campaign. Though the fulfillment timeline has stretched out quite a bit from what we initially planned, we think you're going to love the final product, and we deeply appreciate your support during the campaign and your patience as we bring you your rewards.
