WOW!! Over 1000 backers!!!! We are honestly in shock. Thank you so much for all the support and kind words and encouragement and awesomeness and and and… wow, you all rock!!

*deep breath*

Okay, sorry about that. Truthfully though, we know times are a bit crazy right now and we are extremely humbled to see so many people that believe in Outta Our Shells. Really, thank you all for everything over this wild ride of a month from the bottom of our hearts!

It seems we came just a tad under the mark for adding the artwork to the fronts of the cards.. but honestly we loved creating those sample cards so so much and think it adds a ton of heart to the experience so we will try our hardest to make this a reality.

We cannot wait to get this game into your hands so we can all relax, unwind and get back to connecting again. Please be patient with us as the ongoing situation is making this a little more difficult to get produced than we anticipated, we promise to keep you updated every step of the way and will begin posting images once our samples arrive.

Our next steps are to look into how much artwork we can get added to the cards alongside putting the rewards from the Kickstarter and Snail & Turtle Box goodies into full production.

Stay safe and stress free, please remember to eat healthy, get plenty of exercise and enjoy the moments with your families. And get ready to get Outta YOUR Shells!

7 hours to go!

First off, thank you so much for making this campaign happen -- we're so excited to bring your Outta Our Shells!

We really hope we can hit that $45k stretch goal in the final 7 hours -- please help us share with your friends if you can, but no matter what, thank you so much for backing our game and helping make it happen.

We decided to rescue Big Earl from space jail, and he made us a video!

We can't wait to share Outta Our Shells with you!! See you at the finish line <3

48 Hours left to back Outta Our Shells!

Wow we hit our second goal! THANKS EVERYONE!! As always we hope you’re all staying safe and relaxing with your families. Apologies for being so late to the celebration, we will explain why in a bit.

This is the final 48 hours of our campaign, time for one last BIG PUSH to make sure we can make the game all it can be!

We have some good news to deliver on our end regarding the stretch goals. Instead of the next tier being an additional 25 cards we have been crunching the numbers and decided to offer the additional 50 Cards altogether at the stretch goal we just reached.

So the game will now officially ship with the DIY cards and an additional 50 cards bringing the grand total to 250 cards! Alright!

Wait.. we hit 35K already anyway? SUPER AWESOME!!

That means the next tier we are shooting for is the artwork added to the front of the Question Cards. We were a little late doing this update because we wanted to show these to you. Check it out and let us know what you think!

Definitely makes the cards a little more snazzy and cute don’t you think? We are currently 10K away from this goal so we would appreciate any help getting us there by sharing on social media and telling your friends.

Also at 50K we will add artwork to the Fortune Cards! We are 15K away from this goal and here’s a little peek at that:

Don’t forget that Outta Our Shells is a cross generational game and is fun for all ages, it can also be played by any number of players! We hope to get it in your hands ASAP so we can all get connecting after being so distant.

Thanks again for all your help and support, we couldn’t do this without you!

First Stretch Goal GET!

Yaaay! We did it, first stretch goal has been achieved. But we ain't stopping yet! We still have 13 days left to go. We truly appreciate everyone that helped get us to this point. You can continue helping by sharing the campaign around on social media. The more visibility we get the more we can make Outta Our Shells the best product it can be!

We are already on our way to the next Stretch Goal which is an additional 25 cards added to the game, bringing the final total to 225 cards. Outta Our Shells aims to be a new experience every time you play it. The randomness of the Cat or Rat section of the game and the different people you play with sharing their own personal stories means each time you play it will be a new experience. Adding more cards increases that replay value! 

Here is a new question of the day for y'all and a new fortune!
 

QUESTION

Suppose you had the power to create any illusion, any time. What would you do with this power?
 

BAD FORTUNE

You will develop a strange body odor, that ants seem to find irresistible. Anytime you stay in one place for long, they will find you. 

Please stay safe, relaxed and get connecting with your loved ones during these stressful times. 

Weekly Question + Fortune #2

QUESTION

What is the most disgusting thing you have ever eaten, or seen other people eat?

BAD FORTUNE

Your body will become an efficient gas factory for the entire next year. People will keep their distance and call you by your new nickname, "Farty McFarty".

The most disgusting thing I've ever eaten was a random egg sandwich I got one day. I got it on a roll so everything was nice and soft and then suddenly CRUNCH. I bit something hard and minty flavored and immediately spit it out. It was around late December one year and figured a piece of candy cane got mixed in with my sandwich accidentally. YUCK!
