Hi Storyburger!
We are getting closer and closer to delivering Storyburg. Our awesome manufacturing company Longpack Games has sent a Mass Production Sample... and it looks great! This was a copy of the game made with the same tools as the mass production... meaning Longpack is currently making hundreds of copies of the gamea nd packing them up.
In the next update, the games will be on a boat! More on that when it happens!
Here are some photos from the Mass Production Sample!
Yay!
Thanks for supporting awesome indie games!

Hi Storyburger!
Oh eM Genie in a bottle. It has been awhile since there was a Storyburg update. The uncontrollable reasons? Life. The slightly more controllable reasons?

TODAY: Shipping and Taxes/VAT have been added to the BackerKit Pledge Manager

IN PROGRESS:
Storyburg is currently being manufactured
The wonderful people at Longpack Games are working hard to make a bunch of copies of Storyburg! It’s exciting. They’ve said the games should be done by the end of August. (after that, we will freight ship the games across the oceans to our fulfillment centers to be delivered to you!)
TODAY:
Shipping costs and Taxes/VAT info added to BackerKit Pledge Manager
Rates for shipping and sales tax / VAT (if applicable) are now available to view on your BackerKit order. BackerKit will be processing payments for shipping, sales tax / VAT (if applicable) and add-ons selected in BackerKit on October 8th.
SHIPPING SUBSIDY!!!!!
It is superduperduper important to us that we kept shipping costs as cheap as possible. And despite inflation and the global increase in shipping costs over the past few months… WE SUCCEEDED! We were able to keep shipping rates for most everybody within the ranges we presented on our initial campaign page! Yay! It wasn’t magic, though… we accomplished this feat by including a shipping subsidy for every backer. This amount is already incorporated into the shipping costs within BackerKit.
