Manaforge - A Game of Crafting Magic Items

Happy Tabletop Day
about 7 years ago – Tue, May 02, 2017 at 07:37:57 AM

Hello everyone! Hope you are enjoying International Tabletop Day!

These past 36 hours have been a frenzy of activity on this campaign. Thanks to everyone who recently jumped on board! As of this writing, we are less than 80 backers away from reaching our funding goal. At the speed with which we are picking up backers, this is very attainable.

I'd like to ask that everyone, especially our newer backers, please keep sharing our campaign online. The more attention we get, the faster we will fund.

Thanks!

Last 48

Hello everyone!

We are now officially down to the last 48 hours of the campaign. For those of you who aren't familiar with this already, This is significant because everyone that pressed the "Remind Me" button to be notified later about Manaforge will be getting their reminders right about now. The goal is to harness that extra burst of attention and use it to help push us towards the finish line.

The Kickstarter campaign has improved somewhat since it started. Some better graphics have been added, the page has undergone some minor rearranging, and some useless bits have been removed. Not to mention we gotten significantly closer to our goal. (Just these past four days we've added about $1500 in pledges.)

So, everyone keep your fingers crossed! And of course, keep spreading the word. Especially with Tabletop Day coming up on Saturday; there will be plenty of opportunities to find gamers that have never heard of Manaforge before. (And don't forget that Manaforge can be played online, if someone wants to see the game in action before committing to it.)

Thanks!

Sick Day

Hello everyone!

Thanks for being patient with me during my hiatus of posting updates. I've been fighting off a nasty bug recently and I haven't been able to do much of anything.

The campaign for Manaforge has been chugging along. We've had a couple of good days recently and I'm thinking we aren't very far from being in a position where the rush of the campaign's last couple of days should push us over the top.

I'm still looking for more retailers interested in backing for a box of games for store shelves. If you know any store owner that might be interested, please point them my way. :)

Also, I'm making one more attempt to get a Manaforge photo onto the front page of BoardGameGeek. I think it did a pretty good job of getting attention last time, and being close to the end of the campaign, it could help reel in a few more backers. Everyone please go here and give us a thumbs-up:

Oh, and just in case you didn't know, the last day of this campaign is April 29th, which is also International Tabletop Day. If you're going to be at any gaming stores for special events this Saturday, please consider taking along a few Manaforge flyers. It might be good to mention the game to an audience of gamers, especially if you let them know that the campaign is ending that day. ;)
