Good morning!
So today is the day our Kickstarter should be ending, so I suppose it is time for an update from us.
First and foremost, we thank all of you who backed us and have trusted us since day one, truly, from the bottom of our hearts. We've tried for the past 2 years to get this rolling but hit so many hurdles, so many people who didn't want us to succeed, so all of the positive energy from you all really meant the world.
For anyone who was unaware, just so everything is clear, we started this project late 2021, early 2022, with adequate funding and plans in place, all ready to go, but manufacturers, through poor communication (and holding important information from us), we were set back to square one a whole year later. After multiple attempts to acquire the funds again from other sources, after sourcing a much more reputable manufacturer too, we finally felt the only way we had any chance at succeeding at this stage was through a Crowdfunding campaign, which we put our all into.
Over this past month, through digging in multiple communities, through advertising both locally and online, we've realised a lot. Our reason for beginning this quest years ago has become less possible. That's not to say a more established company couldn't take the reins and do all we had hoped to, flipping the industry on its head, merging the worlds of collecting and gaming, but right now, that isn't going to be us.
We are going to move forward, we still love card games, we are staying on the scene, you'll still see us at tournaments, but what's next for our company remains TBA, for now anyway.
See you soon.
