Cultists of Cthulhu

Less than a quarter to go - but what if we don't make it by tomorrow?

We're over 75% funded and it hasn't even been two days yet, so I am feeling pretty great about that. I hope we reach (and pass!) 100% by the time I wake up tomorrow, and if we don't we will soon after, I'm sure. But if we don't, what about the two player mode?

I really want to get it to you, and I know a lot of you are really interested in that. If you're holding out for that, stick with us and you shall be rewarded.

A great start, and cheaper international shipping!

Wow, yesterday was fantastic! I woke up today to check and see $25,000 pledged so far, and, just, wow. You guys are amazing. I am truly humbled to see how many people share my enthusiasm for this game. I can't wait to get it to you. You're the best supporters ever. We're so close to getting funded before the 48 hour deadline - if you haven't already, spread the word, and if you have, do it again why not!

One of the most common questions I'm getting is "how come the international shipping is so expensive?" The answer is, because that's what I could find to get it to you. This is a big, heavy game, and it's super expensive to ship. Or so I thought! Then one of you wonderful backers, Steve Wright, told me about Ship Naked. I'd already investigated them before, back when I was first planning all this, and found that their rates are basically what I'd used here. But now, it turns out that last June, long after I'd first investigated them, they lowered their international shipping rates by almost a third! That means that we can get international shipping down to $35 instead of $50, which is great news! Also, Canada can get much cheaper, so that's good too. Unfortunately, I can't edit the rewards once somebody's selected them, so here's what I'm going to do: I've added a "ship Internationally" reward (which has the non-north-American option and the Canada option in it), with the shipping cost set appropriately. You can swap your reward around if you prefer, and we'll hopefully be able to get those potential international backers that were turned off by the shipping price earlier.




Also, here's a picture of me looking strangely grumpy, holding a cocktail from the launch party yesterday. It's hard to see, but the cocktail is on fire.

Amazing start, and the launch party tonight in Brooklyn!
