Of course! With the most valuable one being "Sent $1000 to developers via PayPal". This unlocks a special mode where Crafting Diamonds now reduce task wait times by a further hour. This makes it possible to create an empty 2x2 room in your base in a single day!

There will also be game cards, because someone on our team said those are a thing.

You should also consider

- in game credits
- in game "health" insurance ( allowing to save the game)
- designing the game around different packages, each package including an amount of credits, one or more insurances, exclusive hats for the game characters, ans specific weapons / tower designs / tileset

using crowdfunding and being viral on forums will allow you to set increasingly high funding targets, each target introducting a new type of packages. Soon you could find yourselve definig an increase of funding needs of 1.000.000 to include a rare plant species to your game

Cool, that one sounds like the bestest and for $1,000 it's a steal!!
How will game cards work? Will you need to pay others to take them off your hands, and the more you have the slower you progress?
If those are "yes" and "yes", I'm sold!

I understand that it's only in concept phase, but I'm really-really badly itching to pre-order this exceptional and truly unique game.
So please, end my agony - what do I need to do? ;-P

Cards will work exactly that way, unless you have purchased a separate card slot for each one. Card slots come in three levels (Tin, Copper, Platinum), each of which unlocks a different card ability. You can also earn these by grinding in the game. It takes about 500 hours to grind up to an Ore card slot, and when you have enough they can be smelted into one of the usable types. For example, 20 Ore card slots make 1 Tin.

We'll be announcing our Early Access Alpha soon. This will give you a special account to log into our developers blog (currently just photos of our lunches), and a substantial 5% discount on the final game. We hope to have the first playable demo available later this year, with the final release ready in 2025.

I hope that further stretched funding goals will add bronze, then silver, then electrum, then gold and then diamond levels.

Fixed it for you. :P

That's beyond ground-breaking, one single game to spend the rest of my life playing in various tedious ways, awesome!


I was ready to start throwing money at my screen, but that substantial 5% discount is quite off putting, you should consider an at least equal price increase instead, would ensure the game sells like hot cakes during Early Access Alpha. ;-)

You mean a "founder edition", don't you ?

I see you've read our business plan.


Aces. I'm working on the rider as to what keys we'll be providing. Right now we only plan to offer Sierra keys, but should that turn out to be a viable service, we'll need to reconsider.


Or at least until work on our browser-based massively-multiplayer title Puzzle Gun Zombie Keepcraft: Labyrinthine Mayhem of Blood: Angry Candy Farm starts.

Is that a thing? I just feel that the devs are too kind to us and I'd hate to take advantage of them and deprive them of that dazzlingly generous 5%, I mean, living costs until 2025 are no easy feat to cover. ;-)


Ooh - I see you know how to push all the right buttons with me! Thank you sir, you are too kind and I am not worthy of such exquisite content.

The Founder edition will be available for a limited time only. Next year, you might have to buy a supporter edition , with a inflation adjusted price, reduced by 6.8%. By 2024, the "semper fidelis edition" , will allow late believers who have seen the light to benefit from a generous reduction of 23% on the inflation adjusted price of the early bird version. As all versions will have exclusive bonusses, be sure ti buy them all. And spread the word !

Please consider adding:
- Regional pricing, based not your country, but on the product of your house number and your zip code
- In order to activate your game, you need to log in to a single online registration server, located in Uzbekistan, and actually online for only two (random) hours every 24 hours

I can't believe no one has mentioned pixel graphics yet. Then at least you'll be able to sell it on GOG ;)
