200+% We've done well, and we have a few days left. We got another custom card, increasing the size of the Reinforcements deck. And I have an important announcement about custom cards. I am insituting a deadline of five days after the campaigns... (Read More)

One week to go. I'm not sure why I thought it was 11 days to go the other night. Having a pair of hyperactive toddlers around during snowy weather seems to have impacted my cognitive capacity like a mitten on a hard drive. We had another backer... (Read More)

With a week and a half to go, this campaign is still going strong.  If we keep up at the current pace we should cross the 200% threshold later this week.As our new artist has been hard at work, and he has completed three new cards.  That's Steve... (Read More)

The science fiction community has lost a giant.  Leonard Nimoy succumbed to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease today at the age of 83.If you are the sort of person who backs sci-fi games on Kickstarter, I don't have to tell you what a huge impact... (Read More)

We're more than halfway done.  We've already raised more money than my most optimistic estimate.  I can pay for the game to be printed, and we'll have enough left over to pay for the art for my next title.I'm pretty happy with how things have gone... (Read More)

Early this morning we crossed the $18,000 threshold.  We're now at 165% funded, and just shy of the halfway point in the campaign.  I'm very happy with how things have turned out.  Thanks again, to everyone that backed us so far.Hopefully we'll... (Read More)

I am very happy with how things have been going.  At this rate we might wind up doubling our goal. We have two new cards to be added to the Reinforcements deck. That's 41 cards total.I have secured some extra celebrities to join the away team.  I... (Read More)

 Here's what you folks have unlocked with your generosity. Also the Reinforcements Deck is currently up to 39 cards. At this rate it will be even bigger than the custom deck from the last campaign. Which is awesome, and somewhat scary for my poor... (Read More)

You cannot see it, but I am doing the funded dance.Given that I am a middle-aged nerdy white guy, it is probably best for all concerned that you cannot.Expect a more thorough update later, I'm going to go run around my house like a maniac cackling... (Read More)

So five days ago I issued a challenge: If we could get to $5,000 dollars by today, I would add two more cards to the game. How did that turn out? Just shy of $9,000. 80% in less than a week. We are doing pretty darn good. We have a new card to add to... (Read More)

After nearly 15 months worth of waiting fans of the game Redshirts can finally get some expansions. Weaselpants Productions has launched “Redshirts 2: Leprechauns Revenge” on Kickstarter. Additionally they have a pledge level that will give you “Redshirts 3: Beating a Red Horse” as well. Included with nearly every pledge level are 8 internet “celebrity” cards that you can play with ranging from Jonathan Coulton (JoCo) to David Reddick. These expansions seem to be following in the great jocular punny vein that the original game featured. (Read More)

That’s (metaphorically) murder me. Better clarify. Though depending on the target audience, I’m betting he could raise a whole lot of money with that pledge level! Redshirts is one of those awesome card games where you get together with your friends and try to screw each other over. Your goal is to kill all your crew, because that’s how starship captains know they had the best adventure. (Read More)

Five days in, and we are hovering around 44% funding. Not bad so far, at this rate we should hit the goal by the end of the campaign. We're less than $200 away from dropping a few extra cards in, we look likely to hit that goal. Which is awesome,... (Read More)

So last night I asked for people to share this campaign. As incentive I offered a few extra cards if we can hit just shy of the halfway point by Monday. And immediately one of you upgraded to the Admiral level. It wasn't what I had in mind, but that... (Read More)

So here we are on day 2. Progress seems to have slowed down quite a bit. I'm doing my part, searching the various corners of the internet, and ruthlessly cramming information about the game in. But I can't do it alone. Which is where you folks come... (Read More)

Well let's tally up how we did.  $2053. Not bad for the first 12 hours.    18% of our goal in the first day. That's just about one fifth of the way there.   Now all we need is for each of you to help find four more people to bid at the same level... (Read More)
