Project Update: Update 9: Weekend Update + Call to Action
Hello Last Piners,
Super excited to see that we are now over 200% funded with 28 days to go! Absolutely amazing. I don't even know what to expect over the next few weeks. Can we get to $15,000?
We've consistently been in Backerkit's top ten Hottest Projects, currently hovering at #6 (up from #8 just a couple days ago). How freakin' cool is that? We also broke 200 backers and are fast heading toward 250, and we're currently voting on our next community goal. You can vote below!
I also wanted to invite you to participate in a fun conversation taking place over in the Community section: if the world of Bump in the Dark were real, and you were a hunter, what songs would be on the mixtape you keep in your car? Please feel free to join in! The only rule is that the song can't be newer than autumn 1994, since the game takes place in 1994, and autumn is obviously the best (and spookiest) season. Maybe once all this is said and done we'll actually put the playlist together on Spotify or whatever and link it from the website.
We've also added the in-universe sticker pack as an add-on. For only five bucks, you can get six stickers (or more if I think any up!) featuring factions and locations from all around Iron Country.
Finally, I have a call to action:
I've noticed not a lot of gaming stores and retailers have backed yet. Would you be willing to go to your FLGS and champion Bump in the Dark? Or if you have a game store you recommend and think would be a good fit, you could link their website here so I can reach out to them and make a pitch. Either way would be great, and I'm going to make a new community goal: if we can get ten verified retail backers, I'll write a new hunt about a topic or theme you vote for. Let's do this!
Hope everyone is having a safe weekend.
Happy Pride,
jex
