Game Progress
I am happy to report that we are finishing up digitally proofing all of the files with our factory and will be ordering our preproduction samples later this month for each product. Board Game Circus has started translating everything into German, so things are moving along nicely and we’re hoping to finish up manufacturing everything by early Fall.
Also, this is your last chance to give us feedback/comments on the draft of the core rulebook!
Pledge Manager
The Pledge Manager will Close on Sunday, July 13th.
We’ve already got over 65% responded and completed, but have run into a few common questions/errors:
Why am I seeing $43 shipping?
If you are still early in the Pledge Manager process and have not selected your language options yet, the default Rest of World shipping rate of $43 might be displayed after putting in your address. As soon as you make your language selection and have actual items with weight (KG) in your cart this should correct itself.
Why is the wrong pledge level selected or why does it say I’m a late pledge?
The Pledge Manager does its best to match the pledge level and prefill your cart for you based on what you pledged on Kickstarter. In all of these cases, the amount pledged on Kickstarter has been correct and HIVE has you correctly imported as a Kickstarter backer. This means that you should be able to click the “Change Your Pledge” button during step 2 and select the correct pledge before continuing.
If the above tips don’t fix your problem, please email [email protected] and we’d be happy to help!
Looking Ahead
Sadly, this is the first summer that Rock Manor Games will not attend Gencon or Origins since we started. The main reason is that we’re looking to focus on bigger booths for the ones that we are attending with the hopes of spreading it out and always having a new release. This starts with PAX Unplugged in November and fingers crossed we can get StarDriven out before the end of the year.
Instead, we’ll be spending the summer pushing all of our great game projects forward with our main focus on Disco Heist Laundry which is heading to Kickstarter in the Fall and is the first game that I’ve (Mike Gnade) been the lead designer on in awhile.
Here’s a quick overview of what we’re working on. Be sure to sign-up for our newsletter to get more information on all the projects below!
Thanks again for your support and we will see you next month!
