BackerKit Surveys Locking Tomorrow
over 1 year ago – Sat, Nov 19, 2022 at 09:21:38 PM

Hello everyone!

Just a reminder that BackerKit surveys will be locked down tomorrow! If you haven't yet completed your survey, make sure to do it ASAP.

For those that have completed it, this is your last chance to add any additional goodies to your pledge.  You'll still be able to update your shipping address up until we ship the physical merch next year.

Our preorder store will also close in 14 hours: https://dreambound.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

Once the surveys lock and we have an accurate count of each item, we'll begin  merch production!

BackerKit surveys are coming!
over 1 year ago – Wed, Nov 02, 2022 at 09:19:11 PM

Hello everyone!

Soon, you’ll receive an email from us with a special link to your BackerKit survey. It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since we need this information to fulfill your rewards.

You don’t need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey. When you receive the email with the survey, click the survey link to respond. Answer the questions about your reward preferences, provide shipping information, and purchase add-on items if you like. You don’t have access to this survey link yet, but it will be available soon via email!

After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change your responses at any time before we close the surveys and get our final counts.

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://dreambound.backerkit.com/.


BackerKit FAQ

How long do I have to complete my survey?

You'll have until the 20th of November to complete your surveys. After that date, all surveys will be locked down and unable to be changed.


Can I Purchase Extra Add-Ons?

Yes, you can purchase additional add-ons! If you do, you will need to input payment information in BackerKit - but you will not be charged until the survey completion date is reached (20th November).


Can I Purchase Physical Add-Ons?

Yes! BackerKit gives you the chance to add on additional physical merch without originally being on a physical merch tier. We also added some extra special merch options that weren't available during our Kickstarter!


What if I missed your Kickstarter?

You can still grab a copy of the game & merch on our BackerKit preorder store! It will be live for the next 11 days.

That's all for now!

We will have the monthly update on game progress on the 6th of each month, so look forward to that shortly!

Dreambound is now funded!
over 1 year ago – Thu, Oct 13, 2022 at 05:32:30 PM

We made it! 

Dreambound has been successfully funded AND we've reached our stretch goal for an extra secret route, oh my gosh! You guys are the best!


Technically, we reached the stretch goal before the campaign end, which unlocks our next stretch goal...

But it's a little sad to leave it unfunded, right...?


BackerKit

That's where BackerKit comes in! 

We'll be holding a month long additional funding campaign through BackerKit for late pledges and extra add-ons. All of these funds will go towards additional stretch goals and features for the game.


So, when will the BackerKit be live...? Well, right now!


Surveys

Surveys will be going out in two weeks, after all payments have cleared! 

As noted above, we will be running our surveys through BackerKit, which will allow you to add on extra add-ons... even physical merch for tiers that didn't allow physical merch before.

We've also added some extra goodies you can chuck in your order!

Surveys will close on the the 14th of November, giving you two weeks to complete them once they're sent on the 30th of October.


Rewards

Physical rewards will start production in November. For those that purchased the "all our other games" tier or add-on, they will be sent once payment clears and you send in your survey.


Updates

We will be doing MONTHLY updates on the 6th of each month. We'll have our first big update next month!


Patreon

Our Patreon is home to all the behind the scenes content you could ever wish for! We also post three exclusive artworks a month from our promotional artists. Here's a little teaser...

Click here to find our Patreon!


Discord

Feel free to join us on Discord to celebrate our funding and keep up to date with what we're doing, too!


That's all for now! 

There will be another post in two weeks to let you know the surveys are live. Great job everyone!

One Week Left!
over 1 year ago – Thu, Oct 06, 2022 at 08:06:59 AM

There's only ONE week left of the Dreambound Kickstarter!

Time really has just flown by - it feels like just yesterday we launched the Kickstarter. We're SO pleased that we've hit funding, and that we have a week left to head towards our first stretch goal.

Today, we thought we'd talk a little about post-Kickstarter details!


BackerKit

We plan to use BackerKit to handle all of our surveys and add-ons. BackerKit also lets you change your address in case you move and add on extra items post-Kickstarter. 

We hope this will make it really pleasant and smooth to collect everything we need from all of you later!


Updates

Updates will be done on the 5/6th of each month. This coincides with our Patreon updates and our newsletter.

Our updates will consist of writing previews, art, and other behind the scenes info as we progress with the game.


Betas

Betas will come out as art is complete for each next section of the game. We plan to have our first beta, which will include the second chapter of the game (and last chapter of the common route) available before the end of the year.

Beta's are your chance to check out the game ahead of time, all the while helping us with any bugs you find. It's a win-win for both of us! Consider raising up to the beta tier if that's something you're interested in.


Where to find us

For more frequent updates, don't forget to follow us on Twitter! Or, if you're wanting to support us further, we run a Patreon that includes lots of behind the scenes goodies and three exclusive art pieces a month here.


Even more Kickstarters!

We were so lucky to get so much support from fellow KS runners this time around. I wanted to highlight a few other projects who have helped us out!


Fan-Made Genshin Cardigans!

Genshin Impact Inspired Cardigans! Fan-made merch designed by Bork and Ammy, small business owners based in the UK trying to bring their designs to life. Their cardigans are size inclusive, ranging from small to 3XL, too!

They just hit 10k, so they've also released two more designs. They all look so lovely. Plus, they have merch as well!


KURONAKEN - HxH Fan Art Illustration Book

I’m very proud to present my first self-produced book! I have had a vision for this book for the longest time so finally bringing this project to life feels like a dream come true.

It’s been a long journey to reach this point and finally turn this dream into reality. I would appreciate all your support of this book, as I have dedicated weeks and months to make this one of my best pieces of work to date.  

I believe that sharing my artwork in the form of a book evokes a lot of meaning and attachment compared to art through a screen or as a print. This book holds all of my past work. It tells a story without words, the story of my artistic journey. I genuinely hope you will treasure it, and I hope this inspires and motivates you to continue drawing or pick up a fantastic hobby!
