Backerkit, Surveys and Beta update

Hi folks,
 Kickstarter has finished doing all their back end stuff and I now have a final list of backers.

BackerKit

Handling this many backers can be overwhelming so I’ve partnered with BackerKit! This is a pledge management and delivery tool.

What this means:

  • You’ll be receiving your survey email and software key emails from BackerKit.
  •  You can upgrade your pledge tier level through the BackerKit survey by adding one of the upgrade addons. If you upgrade you will need to input payment information in BackerKit to pay the difference.
  • You’ll be able to keep track of your items (software keys) by making a BackerKit account.
  • I set up a BackerKit pre-order store for people who missed the Kickstarter (linked on the main Kickstarter page). 

Surveys

Surveys should be sent out over the next couple of days, filling these out will allow me to start distributing beta keys to the backers at the beta access tiers.

  • If you do not receive your BackerKit survey email by January 31st, just go to this link, enter your Kickstarter email address (whatever you used in the Kickstarter) and click on the "Get My Survey" button. You will be sent a new email with a link to your survey. (Check your spam folder as well)
  • If you used Facebook to log into your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey will be sent to your Facebook email address.
  • If you have another email address that you would prefer to use, please contact BackerKit support at [email protected]

Beta Keys

I’ll be turning on beta key distribution for Adventurer, Hero, Wanted and Legend tiers on Monday (31st Jan) If you’ve filled out your survey a beta key will be sent to your email address from BackerKit on this date. If you fill in your survey after Monday (31st Jan) the Beta key email may take up to 24 hours to be sent. (Don’t forget to check your spam folder.)

 Discord Server (Beta Tiers)

The discord server is ready to go, you’ll receive a link to the server with your beta key email.

FAQ

  •  What’s the survey for? You’ll be sent an email containing a link to your survey on BackerKit. The survey allows BackerKit to confirm details about your pledge and send digital items to you (beta keys for example). You MUST fill out the survey to get tier rewards, even if the survey doesn’t have any specific questions for your tier level.

BackerKit FAQ

  •  I forgot my BackerKit password. How do I get it? Just go here: this link, enter your Kickstarter email address and click on the "Get My Survey" button. You will be sent a new email with a link to your account.
  •  I want to sign back into https://dragonmapmaker.backerkit.com/ but I don’t remember the email I used for my account. How do I get it? It should be your Kickstarter account email. If that doesn’t work, please email [email protected] and they will help you.
  •  I have a question about BackerKit that isn’t covered here. What do I do? Head over to BackerKit FAQ or email the team directly at [email protected]

And we’re done!

What a great last few days! Thanks to everyone who backed throughout the campaign.

I’ll try my best to live up to your expectations.

The Desert Theme Stretch goal was so insanely close I would feel real evil to not tick that box, so lets say we hit that one as well!

Going forward, the next step is getting the beta phase up and running. Kickstarter has to process backer info and soon after that beta keys will be sent out (this should be towards the end of the month).

I’m going to take a couple of days off from the internet before getting right back into it next week.

Have a great day and happy mapping, Beta here we come!!!

Stretch goal hit (well its close enough!): Desert Themes

  • Tents made for camping in the desert
  • Wind eroded rock structures.

24 hours to go!

We’ve had a nice bit of traction the last day or so. Hello to all the new backers!

I’d like to thank everyone for the kind comments and for sharing their excitement wherever they can.

Prepping and running a Kickstarter is very time-consuming and a bit stressful so I’m looking forward to really diving into the app during beta.

I also finished setting up the Discord server for beta yesterday. I’ve never run a server for a community before, so that was something else to learn! Adventurer tier and up (beta backers) will be receiving their discord invites along with their beta keys towards the end of the month.

Thanks again and happy mapping!
