WOW WOW WOW! WE'VE FUNDED! And Achievements have been revealed!
Today was quite the unproductive day at work, I had my eyes glued to any screen that could render the BackerKit campaign, and getting out for lunch earlier so I could watch that countdown number get to 0. And even if my brain hasn't still processed much of what has happened to...

Today was quite the unproductive day at work, I had my eyes glued to any screen that could render the BackerKit campaign, and getting out for lunch earlier so I could watch that countdown number get to 0. And even if my brain hasn't still processed much of what has happened today, I can say something with certainty: thank you. so. much.
I'm ?!?!?!?! that so many people have taken interest in The Iron Hive, I love this place and can't wait to hear the stories you tell in here!
So what's next? What's on the horizon? WELL! Achievements (stretch goals) have been unlocked, in fact, we are about to hit the next one! It has literally moved 2% as I was writing this, which either speaks of me being a slow writer or you guys just showing that much support (it's a bit of both plus I accidentally refreshed this page and lost it all).
You can see the cool achievement progress bars here
And you can see the future achievements here, which is in the main Story section, the Faceless Swarm interference has been dealt with!
WANT SOME FREE CONTENT RIGHT NOW!? TO CELEBRATE I'VE JUST ADDED 30 COMMUNITY COPIES TO THE VACHELLIA MUTUALIZER!! CLICK HERE TO GO THERE!!
Update: of course you went and unlocked the achievement as I posted this (ty <3), new one's up! You can check it in the same place as the others, will update the graphic ASAP! So excited to do these scenes!!!

The hive dweller (16), in the image says it comes with the print version and the PDF but when I look at it after I pledge it shows the PDF version, physical stretch rewards, and something else. Do I need to pledge at the iron boss (25) level to get the print version? I am a little confused and any information would be appreciated.
PROJECT UPDATE

Project Update: First 24h-ish gone! We are more than funded and racking up stretch goals!
Thank you all! Thank you so much for this overwhelming support, we are standing at 236% funded at 26 hours after launch!
We didn't want to swarm you email with even more updates so we did a little celebratory discussion but those don't seem to be pushed as much, still, we will try to keep updates to a minimum during the campaign, BackerKit itself already sends some automated ones.

Achievements/Stretch goals
Oh wow! You really went through them huh? As we were writing this (as with the discussion, like, why do we start writing so close to an achievement?) another achievement was met! We now have:
- The Jade Market sector tracking sheet [Digital]
- The Iron Hive animated 3D scenes [Digital]
- Ruzt Ratz Catalogue [Digital and Printed]
Honestly, kind of insane that the funding goal was more than doubled in 24h, and even more that there are still 27 days left! Really excited to hit that comic book achievement, a fan of cruzarte's work for a while and getting to work with him has been amazing!
"Hmmm... But what exactly happens if we go past 10k?" We hear you ask
We are still debating on this, we feel like we already have a lot of elements that will go into production so another physical reward might not be a smart decision. This means that it could be either more digital rewards or upgrading already existing ones. However, we can stare at that bridge from afar once you cross the 10k one, there's time.
"Why is the sector tracking sheet digital?" The sheet is letter sized so it would require some folding to travel along with the booklet. We also know people that refuse to scribble on stuff that came with a game, so we want to get rid of that worry and let you print as many as you need, erase, use markers, do whatever you want. However, if there's enough pull, we could include them either way, but what was mentioned on the previous point about adding another element to production would still stand.
DO YOU WANT FREE CONTENT RIGHT NOW!?
As it was mentioned on the discussion (and proof that it didn't reach many of you) we added 30 community copies to The Vachellia Mutualizer, it's a trifold virus horror that I mentioned on my interview with Columbary TTRPG.
