Post-Campaign Update #1
over 4 years ago – Tue, Oct 29, 2019 at 07:13:32 PM

End of Campaign

Hope everyone is having a great week! We're back and working behind the scenes to get things ready for manufacturing. Here's what to expect in the near future. 

Stretch Goals Locked and Unlocked

We were able to unlock the first stretch goal, the Subliminal Fugue. Yay! This will be included in the base-game as an optional addition to the game. 

We weren't able to get to the other stretch goals during the campaign, but as we've stated before, we are planning to release these sometime later down the road. Due to costs, these remaining stretch goals will have to be produced at a later time.

Late Pledges

If you know anyone who missed the campaign, we have Late Pledges opened for a limited time at this link:

Pledge Manager

We are working with Backerkit as our pledge manager. We will be sending out a survey to your Kickstarter email to gather address information and handle all of the shipping charges. We are working to get the Backerkit survey ready to send, and once things are ready to go we'll post another update with more information about it. 

Shipping Charges

Here is the updated shipping pricing: 

USA = 1 copy $6.00, 2 copies $7.00

Canada and EU = 1 copy $9.00, 2 copies $10.00

World = 1 copy $10.00, 2 copies $11.00

+ $1 for each additional copy over 2.

Our fulfillment centers offer customs free shipping to US, CA, EU, and AU.

Rulebook Editing

In the meantime, we'll be working to get the rulebook finalized. We have several new things to add, but we anticipate everything being ready around the 1st of November. At that point we will send all of the game production files to our manufacturer.

Manufacturing & Fulfillment 

Things can come up, but we anticipate everything being ready and delivered to you before our estimated delivery date. We'll have more info on this the closer we get to sending our files to the printer.

Future Updates

We won't bog you down with updates. After all of the important news has been sent out, we intend to release one update per month to let you know the status of things.

As always, if you have any questions, or if we left something out, please let us know!

Thanks for your support!

Campaign's End
over 4 years ago – Thu, Oct 24, 2019 at 09:16:50 PM

Hello hello!

Thank you all so much! We are so happy to successfully fund Fugue. It's been a tremendous amount of work and we're ready to move onto the next stage. 

In the meantime, we are going to take a breather and celebrate. :D

If any of your friends missed the campaign, we'll have our late pledge option open for a limited time. 

We are using backerkit as our pledge manager and we'll get back to you soon with another update explaining how it works and what to expect in the days and weeks ahead. 

Thanks again for your help and support! We appreciate everyone who stayed by the campaign throughout the early days, all of the backers who surged in at the last minute to unlock the Subliminal Fugue, and everyone in between.

Have a great weekend and God bless!

Adam, Cassandra, and the rest of us at Lost Age Games! 

Final Hours! Quick recap
over 4 years ago – Wed, Oct 23, 2019 at 10:39:59 PM

Hey Friends!

We're in the final hours of the campaign! We wanted to say thanks again for helping us not only fund, but overfund! 

We're working toward our first stretch goal! We're very close! I think we will hit it today or tomorrow (and probably a few more)! 

If we can't make these stretch goals a reality during the kickstarter, we plan to release them further down the road.

If you are a $1 supporter, thank you! Everything helps! 

And remember, if you want to unlock 5, 6. 7, or 8 player play, you'll need two copies of the game.

We'll have more information in the next update. 

If you have any questions, let us know!

Have a great day!

Adam & Cassie

Stretch Goals & Final Week!
over 4 years ago – Sat, Oct 19, 2019 at 09:40:50 PM

Hello everyone!

We're officially at the start of Fugue's final week on Kickstarter! There's no better time to talk about stretch goals. So we're devoting this entire update to that.

This following chart shows the name of each stretch goal. Bbelow that is a graphic for each revealed stretch goal that gives more detailed  information. If you have any questions let us know!

We'll reveal a hidden stretch goal after each unlock.

Final Week

We have a lot of hope for this last week and the final 48 hours. We really think we can get through every one of these stretch goals with your help! But even if we can't, we plan to release them separately in the future.

The best way to keep up to date is by signing up for the Lost Age Games newsletter, Tales from the Lost Age. 

You can always help by sharing the campaign on social media!

Thanks everyone for your help!

Amazing! Over 50% funded in the first 24 hours!
over 4 years ago – Thu, Oct 17, 2019 at 06:53:00 PM

Hello friends!

Welcome to the Fugue kickstarter campaign! 

We wanted to start things off by giving a great big thank you to all of our amazing backers! We really appreciate your support so early on in the campaign. This first 24 hours have been great!  Thank you very much! 

We're here to answer any questions you have, so please feel free to share, either here, in the kickstarter comments, or private message.

Reviews

We had the opportunity to get Fugue in front of several reviewers we respect.  Here's a small excerpt from BJ Rozas at Board Game Gumbo:

BJ gave a very thorough review and had a lot of nice things to say about Fugue. You can click the image to read the full review.

Speaking of Board Game Gumbo, Adam will be a guest on BJ's live show, "Gumbo Live" on October 8th. So keep an eye out for that!

Stretch Goals

It's early, but we're excited so we want to talk a little about the stretch goals.  

Among some other things, we have a few of what we like to call "micro-expansions" planned. Each micro-expansion will add one or two additional Fugues to the game, along with one or two new rule/Fugue value cards. These will add new options for creating sets and interacting with the "Mind". These expansion aren't required to play, but can add some fun. Here's a look at the first one:

With the subliminal Fugue, you can pull a random tile from the Depth area when you'd normally be drawing from the bag. This adds a new level of strategy to set making and Fugue creation! 

We have a few more of these to share, so stay tuned! Even if we don't hit the stretch goals, we hope to offer these micro expansions separately sometime in the future.

Social Goals

We presently have no social goals for the campaign, but that may change soon. What are your thoughts on Social Goals? What kind would you like to see? Leave a comment and let us know!

Thanks Again!

That's about all for this update! Please share the campaign and talk about it in your boardgame groups to help Fugue succeed! We look forward to being on this journey with you. 

Hope you have a happy October!
