I’m excited to announce we’ve finished development on Star Tycoon! That means all production assets are ready to be sent to the printer…we just need a wheelbarrow full of cash from Kickstarter to make that happen. The date for the Kickstarter is set for the 28th of Feb 2023 and I’ll be posting a notification link when it’s ready to go.
And we’ve launched! And now I get to stare anxiously at my phone for the next 28 days 😂I’m also about to send out an email via the mailing list and social channels, so sorry to all those who will get double up notifications today.
Here’s the link, hope to see you all having a party in the comments section: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1800215991/mothership-2nd-edition-booster-pack
Oh boy, what an awesome update I’ve got for you! Let’s jump right in…
What!? A new module? Can I just add stuff to the game after the campaign?
Sure can, I’m the creator. I can add a packet of tomato sauce to every box if I wanted!
First off, a bit of background: This was an idea I had kicking around in the back of my mind for a bit, but ran out of time to develop and play-test it before the campaign launched. I’m not one to promise something that isn’t fully made (and then rush to get it done later). Isn’t it better to get a surprise like this!?
WE DID IT!
Words cannot describe how cool it was to be involved in this campaign. There was something special about this one, and I have to put it down to you. So many people got involved in the events, comments, social goals and stream and it was honestly so much fun connecting with you all.
So, to all of you wonderful backers, THANK YOU! You made this campaign an absolute joy to run.
Your support and excitement for my little game about spaceships is everything a designer could hope for.
But enough of that, lets get down to business!! What did we unlock?
The new campaign for Mothership’s 2nd Edition is now live on Kickstarter. Click here to check it out!
I’m looking forward to talking to you all in the comments section over the next month.
Whoa, can you believe it’s campaign time already!? I’ve been hard at work preparing the new Kickstarter page and polishing up some of the unannounced content. What is the unannounced content you ask!? Well you’ll have to stay tuned to the campaign to find out 😉. What I will mention is that there are two entirely new modules for you to add to the game that will expand the function of planets.
I should also mention, the time difference between Australia and the rest of the world will mean that for half of you, the campaign will actually start on the 4th of March. Either way, I’ll send out a quick email when it launches to keep you in the loop.!
I’m so excited to finally start revealing some information about the second edition of Mothership. I’m going to talk some more about my plans, the direction of the game and how you can be involved in the upcoming campaign below. But first, I’d love to introduce you to the latest unit which will be available in the base game, and through a first edition backer upgrade pack.
With the production period behind me, now is a good time to talk about my experience with getting Mothership manufactured by WinGO which should hopefully assist you with choosing a manufacturer yourself.
A new Kickstarter for Mothership’s first expansion will launch on April the 4th!
The expansion is titled – Into the Vortex
Into the Vortex will include lots of cool stuff to beef up your Mothership experience. More details to come next week.
After 31 days 811 backers pledged over $50,000 to help make Mothership a reality! Thank you to everyone who got involved!
If you missed the campaign you can still pre-order but clicking the link at the top of the page. The Kickstarter edition will be available for a little longer but pre-orders will close in a month or so.
All updates for Mothership will be posted to Kickstarter first here. Okay, now to get back to work!
