Crowfall: $1,000,000 Raised; New Character and Effects Incoming
The Crowfall Kickstarter campaign crossed the $1,000,000 threshold today, meaning that ArtCraft Entertainment can now hire a dedicated effects artist and put their character artist back to work on…well…characters.
We just crossed two huge thresholds: our first stretch goal, $1 million in pledges (which will will use to hire an FX artist, and to add female centaurs to the game!) and of equal importance — maybe even more so — we’ve rallied over 10,000 backers to our banner… in a little over one week!
That’s unbelievable. Thank you.
They’ve also announced a new stretch goal…this one tied to the number of backers, rather than to the amount of funding raised:
…at 12,000 kickstarter backers, we’re going to give EVERY BACKER a unique All-Father statue to display proudly in their Eternal Kingdom! This will let visitors know that you were here, and supported Crowfall, from the beginning.
And the $1.3 million stretch goal also got a bit of an enhancement:
…as soon as we hit that next stretch goal, we’re going to add — for no additional cost to our new or existing backers — MOUNT FIGURINE rewards to the following tiers:
At the Backer level, you get a rare magical QUARTERHORSE summoning figurine!
At the Bronze patron level, you ALSO get a rare magical WARHORSE summoning figurine!
At the Silver patron level, you ALSO get a rare magical NIGHTMARE summoning figurine!
These figurines are inventory items which allow you to conjure Spirit mounts from the Eternal Kingdoms — and turn them back into figurines, when not in use.
Remember, each higher pledge level inherits the previous rewards — so a Silver backer (and every level above Silver) will get a Quarterhorse, a Warhorse AND a Nightmare figurine!
For reference, the Backer level is the $60 pledge, the Bronze is the $100 pledge, and the Silver is the $130 pledge.
As you can see, the game’s funding has kind of plateaued for now, and is increasing at what could be called an incremental rate. That said, the next stretch goal is certainly within easy reach given how much time is left in the campaign.
