Hello everyone! We hope you are having a great start of the week!
We are officially in the final 68 hours of the Castlebound Kickstarter campaign! ๐ฅ
Before anything else, we just want to say THANK YOU!
The support we've received throughout this campaign has been incredible. Together, we've funded the game and unlocked so many new features that will make Castlebound bigger and better than we originally planned.
And now, we're incredibly close to unlocking one final Stretch Goal!
We're Almost There! Animated Cutscenes! ๐ฌ
We're currently only about $36,000 MXN (a little over $2,000 USD) away from unlocking Animated Cutscenes!
If we reach approximately $28,000 USD ($476,000 MXN), we'll be able to add animated intro sequences and cutscenes to some of the most important moments in Castlebound's story.
We're so close!
With less than 68 hours remaining, please help us with one final push by sharing the campaign with your friends, family, and anyone you think might enjoy Castlebound! โค๏ธ
Every new backer gets us one step closer!
Social Challenge Update! ๐
We're also running out of time to complete our Social Challenge!
