We did it...

We have thanks to all of you funded the development of five adult titles and a possible sixth 2017 game, though that will be confirmed in time once backerkit it rolled out.

What Happens Now?

Those who haven't used kickstarter might be curious as what occurs now, basically over the next 7 days kickstarter will process payments from backers, any failed payments will then have until the 7th day to update their details before their pledge is classed as Failed.

If the pledge fails you will lose access to updates on kickstarter, but you will get a second chance to get your rewards via backerkit...

After the 7 days Kickstarter begins the process of transferring the funds to us here, this usually takes about 7-10 days.

During this time we wont be twiddling our thumbs waiting, we will have already commissioned some items in preparation for the funds arrival and work will be ongoing on the various titles too. In addition we will be setting up the last stages of Backerkit.

The Backerkit Process

So roughly two weeks after the campaign ends we will import all backers (successful and failed) into Backerkit, those who have failed can then choose to pay via Backerkit if they still want the rewards.

All succeeded backers will also be imported and get the backerkit survey, which will get shipping details from those we need it from (this can be edited later, so don't delay in filling it in) In addition backers can now choose to upgrade their reward levels if they didnt get a chance during the campaign and pay the difference via backerkit.

Lastly backers will also get to select add-ons that we have made available in backerkit, and again make the payment. At the end of each week we close any completed surveys and process payments in backerkit.

Development will then continue and we will regularly post updates each month for each game, posting new artwork, news and features. Specific rewards and items will be sent through backerkit, though you will need to complete your survey before you can receive anything.

And that is that

Thank you all for coming on this crazy thrill ride on kickstarter this past month, it has been great seeing the campaign build and build and now I look forward to a full year of development and releases.

Remember all £55+ backers get all five games listed as well as all other Dharker Studio games to be released in 2016. Whether Apocalypse is also included will be disclosed once backerkit has been launched and we know where final funding lands.

Thank you.

Final Hour
over 8 years ago – Sun, Feb 21, 2016 at 11:31:04 AM

Greetings backers, 

We are now into the final hour of the campaign, based on the progress it seems very likely that either by the end of the campaign or with the addition of any funds from upgrades and add-ons on backerkit, that we will reach the final goal of the campaign.

I don't want to jump the gun but I think that means it is likely we will be able to include steam and beta keys for our 2017 title Apocalypse for the £55+ reward levels.

Thank you all, as we head towards the end of the campaign.

Complete Poster List

Final Countdown
over 8 years ago – Sat, Feb 20, 2016 at 11:30:12 PM

 Hey Backers,

With a little under four hours remaining we are now almost half way towards the goal with every reason to believe that between kickstarter and backerkit we should easily make the next goal giving backers a copy of Apocalypse.

Every hour from now will be an update to give you some last minute details including a list of all daki's that the £55+ backers will receive, info on the two top rewards and more, all to come soon.

Thank you.
