Lil' gif to explain our job class branching for the Kickstarter. Looks good! Those little figurines almost look like you can pick them up put them on your shelf! Have you thought about actual figurines? Probably the "simplest" way would be doing it as 3d printing with Shapeways. Though that would still require 3d models and since your Kickstarter is fairly close, that idea might be better left as an optional possibility for later on - based on interest. Here's an interesting example: http://www.shapeways.com/product/3ZWKBPA6C/morton-the-elephant-medium-size?li=shop-results&optionId=5582425

We were actually looking into getting this lil' fellow made into a figurine for the Kickstarter: But, because of time constraints (I unfortunately just don't have enough time to model him in zbrush ATM) it is looking like we won't be able to offer any 3D printed figures for the KS. We really love the idea of the characters as figurines though, so it's something we may still try to do before we release the game! Something else we've been looking into is multiple skin tones & hair color options for hired units. This would have to be a stretch goal but it's part of our original vision for the game so we're really hoping the community is as into the idea as we are! The Kickstarter is coming up FAST (cough April 5th cough) and the page is really coming together now. We just got a fresh batch of AMAZINGLY complex and catchy tunes from Moritz so we are really, REALLY excited to share those and well as some cool new game mechanics with you guys once we launch!

Thanks guys! Another sleepless night fretting about the KS, another reply to share a new pic. This time it's our Achievements system we made to help keep things interesting during the "dead zone" of a Kickstarter campaign. Even if the funding amount isn't going up a noticeable amount, some cool extras are being unlocked for the community to enjoy!

What do the numbers correspond to? That's not immediately obvious to me.
In fact I can't even figure it out through logical deduction and I'm developing a puzzle game XD
However, the idea is great and I am intrigued so I'm sure your audience will be as well.
Also: what happened to 15?

Haha no worries, the numbers aren't supposed to relate to anything just yet! The achievements will be unlocked via different goals like YouTube views, Twitter followers, etc. We will have those goals listed on the Kickstarter, and these achievement rewards are what everyone will unlock if we can reach certain achievement totals unlocked. 15 wandered off and got lost. (haha you noticed! it's actually because we just couldn't think of anything for 15 )

I think you should think of something for 15! Either that or move 20 25 and 30 down to 15 20 and 25? I think the biggest gap should be for the biggest reward. It feels weird to have that big gap in there on the lower end of the scale. Just my two cents!

Continues to look amazing, I've been enjoying it pop up on Twitter every now and then. I'm sure your Kickstarter will have no trouble at all! Seems like that's off to a good start too.

I'm so excited about this project, I was a little shocked when I saw you were going for a pretty big goal, but I'm so glad you guys got some great backing in the first couple hours! I got one of the early bird slots ^w^
Definitely keeping an eye on some of your techniques for my Kickstarter this fall!

Nice, those early bird slots sold up like hot cakes! :D Day one is complete and we are resting just a little below 15% funded. It's important to keep momentum going so if you guys helped share the project around with your friends ( FAMOUS friends?? ) it will help us tremendously!
The more likes/shares/subscribers/backers/etc count towards ACHIEVEMENTS which will add cool new reveals, backer gifts & in-game extras!

It's been a real roller coaster thus far but we're off to a good start! Over 20% funded as of this morning. :D We could use some help over at the Greenlight page though. if you guys get time, a Yes vote would be awesome!
