Dear backers,
Hello and if you just backed today, welcome to Little Nemo and the Nightmare Fiends! We're so excited to have your support on this project combining video games, comics, and classic animation!
Progress update
We wanted to share updates on our progress since launching yesterday:
- We're at over 17% funded already with 266 supporters!
- The project was named one of Kickstarter's "Projects We Love"!
- We're #2 in most popular video game projects on Kickstarter!
- We also got some great external attention! Frank Cifaldi of the Video Game History Foundation called the game "the best use of public domain I've seen in a video game." We've also done some press interviews and will hopefully be able to share on that soon!
What can you do?
We're off to a great start, but still have a long way to go! We need your help getting the word out. For today - can we hit 300 backers? Let's find out!
Please share the game with your friends and social networks, including if you are members of any communities that might be interested in the game. The same goes if you can share the game with any YouTubers (or post videos about the game yourself!) That will help us reach more potential backers and help us fund the project and hopefully get into some of those awesome stretch goals (stat-changing food! Flying bed world map! New levels with surreal fun-house effects!)
Inside peeks at the game's development
We also wanted to give you a sense of what to expect from updates. We've planned out lots of content in the coming days so that we can discuss and discover the world of Slumberland together. Here's some of what you'll see:
- Saturdays will feature live stream game development from Ben Cole, the project's tech lead
- Regular focus features on the game's mechanics from Adrian Sandoval, the project's design lead
- Tuesdays will feature the Brainstorming Slumberland mini-podcast, where you can hear us brainstorming ideas for the game from our weekly meetings.
- Artwork Wednesdays, featuring artwork reveals (new friends! new enemies!)
- ...and more looks inside the game development process of Little Nemo.
That's all for today! Thanks again for your support and stay dreamy!
Team Nemo
