Fulfillment Complete!

Aaaaaand...DONE!

We have completed Kickstarter fulfillment!!!  As of today, all backers who have filled out their surveys or gotten in touch with us directly have their rewards on their way (or in many cases already received them!).    Please keep an eye out for an email from Backerkit containing your tracking information if you're still waiting on your rewards.  Thank you all for your patience as we got everything out.  If anyone has any problems or questions, please contact us at [email protected] or directly here (through Kickstarter).

There are still several people, who should be receiving physical rewards, that have not filled out their survey.  If you are one of these people, please go to our Backerkit page and complete your survey.  We won't be able to ship anything to you until you do.  Thank you!!

For everyone who received the game, we hope you all enjoy it and that it finds its way on to your table over and over again.  We had an incredible journey designing, developing, testing, and producing this game and we hope the amount of love and energy we put into it only enhances your gaming experience.  If your love for Steepseers is so great that you feel the need to shout it out from the mountain tops, please consider leaving a review of the game on our Board Game Geek page, found here.

And once again, a huge THANK YOU to each and every one of you beautiful backers.  We made our goal by only a couple hundred dollars, so every one of your donations mattered.  We couldn't have done it without you.

What's Next?

Now that fulfillment is complete, we will start taking Steepseers on its first convention tour!  We have several Cons lined up for this year, mostly local in the NY state area.  Check out the latest news on our website, www.kinsoulstudio.com, for the list of conventions we're planning to attend.  We always love meeting and chatting with our backers, so if you're able to come out for a fun weekend of gaming at any of the conventions we'll be at, be sure to say hi!

What about upcoming games, you ask?  Well, we do have several projects in development right now, however we have not yet decided which one will be the next game we release.  But rest assured, more KinSoul games are coming and you will be one of the first to hear about them!

Happy gaming, and happy steeping!

Fulfillment Has Begun!

Fulfillment

We have begun the fulfillment process!  Most of our in-person local deliveries have been completed, and the first large batch of packages was shipped out yesterday.  Those of you receiving packages in this first batch should have emails from BackerKit confirming the shipping and providing a tracking number.  Everyone else, be on the lookout for those emails with  your tracking information.  We will be continuing to ship packages out over the next few weeks.

New Store Website

In other news, we recently launched a new store website!  We'll be adding to it as more products become available, and we will eventually offer discounts to our supportive backers.  So, for all your future KinSoul gaming needs, be sure to check out our store at www.kinsoulstudioshop.com.

Steepseers Delivery and Upcoming Fulfillment
almost 5 years ago – Tue, May 21, 2019 at 05:44:33 PM

Steepseers has been delivered!!!

We received our complete shipment of Steepseers, the coloring books, and the Tarot cards!!  We couldn't be more excited.  Upon initial inspection, everything is looking good and is accounted for.  We will be posting an unboxing video in the next couple weeks.  Check out some photos we took while unloading the truck at the end of this update.

So what does this mean...?

Backer reward fulfillment can now begin!!

Fulfillment can be broken into 3 parts for us: domestic in-person delivery, domestic shipped delivery, and international shipped delivery.

• Domestic In-Person Delivery: this option is for people who live in our areas and have arranged for direct in-person delivery.  These people will begin receiving their rewards this week.  Please be prompt with arranging a pick-up time if we reach out to you.
• Domestic Shipped Delivery: this is the option that applies to most of the backers.  We will be packaging and shipping your rewards to you.  This process may take longer than the others, but we will stay on top of keeping the affected backers notified.  We plan to get ourselves prepared over the next week, and then we will begin shipping out rewards!  We'll be fulfilling the rewards of each tier before moving on to the next.  More updates will be coming out over time to let you know when to expect your tier's rewards.
• International Shipped Delivery:  this option is for international backers only.  We are partnering with China Fulfill to provide these backers with their rewards.  Please keep an eye out for any emails or tracking information they provide you.

What's Next?

The next major date to be aware of is this weekend: Saturday, May 25.  Three big things will be happening that day:  

• 1. We will be locking down addresses.  If your address is changing or has changed, please please please update your address in BackerKit.  We really don't want to ship your rewards to the wrong people.
• 2. We will be charging credit cards for your add-ons.  Please make sure your credit card on file is able to be charged so this process goes smoothly.
• 3. International backer information will be provided to China Fulfill, our international fulfillment partner.  They will ship those packages out soon after.

For anyone who hasn't filled out the survey yet, your time is running out.  Please fill it out this week to guarantee prompt delivery of your rewards.  You can access the survey through the original email sent to you, or by going to steepseers.backerkit.com .

Everyone keep an eye out for tracking information and more Kickstarter updates over the next few weeks!
