We've Got Wood(en Gems)!!
over 2 years ago – Wed, Nov 03, 2021 at 08:28:39 PM

Hey Wizards,

I am so excited to announce that we hit that Wooden Gems Stretch Goal earlier today. Back at the old KTBG headquarters we've been busy collating your Spellbook Event ideas so that we can get you ready to vote for them. More about that later in this update. For now, a massive welcome to those of you who have just joined in on the amazing Power Plants fun. And those of you who have been here since before the last update, we're so glad you're sticking around. We're having so much fun on this campaign and we're incredibly grateful to have you here with us. Now, on to some fun stuff!

What We've Unlocked

I think I've mentioned once or twice how excited I am about this, right!? Wooden Gems!!!!! To make this game that much more special.

What We're Working On

More variability is always a good thing, especially when it comes to Alternate Plants like Broadroot.

What's Next

Some of you a couple of steps ahead of us. But we love that. It just means that we're on the right track. Check out the Sprite Powers micro-expansion, which will come only with the KS edition of Power Plants. 

Yes! Another Alternate Plant!!!!

Another Two Stretch Goals and More Events
over 2 years ago – Tue, Nov 02, 2021 at 12:25:20 AM

Hello Wizards!

We hope that you are enjoying this awesomely fun campaign. I have been loving watching the comments coming in for the Spellbook event. In case you are wondering about it, take a look at the comments section here. Wizards, you have been so incredibly creative with this. It makes us want to actually create a spell book!! Before we look at what is happening with this campaign, let me send out a HUGE welcome to those who have recently joined in the fun! We also wanted to thank those who have stuck with us over the last week. We are reaching awesome Stretch Goals, and it is because of your awesome effort. 

What We've Unlocked

No game with a draw bag is ever considered deluxe until such bag is screened. Welcome to the deluxe screened bag. 

More variability!! We love adding more game to our games. Trapmaw it is!

What We're Working On

I have to say that while I'm excited about all of the Stretch Goals so far, this one is the juiciest. Come on custom wood Gem tokens!! Let's make it happen.

What's Next

Even more, and more, and more, and more variability (that's the 4th Alternate Plant Stretch Goal, right!?)!!!!!

Let's Make This Happen!

Wizards, only you can push us forward. Without your help and effort, this campaign would stand still. If you want to get those juicy wooden Gems, and more variability in this game with the Broadroot Alternate Plant, we need you to share. 

--> For maximum visibility, we need to get the Power Plants campaign listed on the Kicktraq Hotlist. The only way to make this happen is to first visit the Power Plants Kicktraq page here, and then hit the green Visit Project button. Once you do, go to the comments section to comment on the campaign. The more comments we get that directly come from Kicktraq, the better our chances of moving up on the list.

Coming Events

--> The Spell Book event will be ending tonight at 9pm EST. See this update for all of the information you need to get your name on the Power Plants Kickstarter box. Once we choose our favourite 18 spell combos, we'll get you to vote!

--> Derek and Lizzy from Board Game Spotlight will be playing Power Plants LIVE tomorrow night at 9:30pm EST. If you've ever watched them, you know that they are incredibly entertaining. It will be a fun event that we are all very much looking forward to. All of us on the team will be there! Come to watch and ask us anything! If you are not on Facebook, don't worry! You can catch the event LIVE on YouTube!

Funded! That Was a Wild 24 Hours
over 2 years ago – Sun, Oct 31, 2021 at 12:22:42 AM

Hello Wizards!

We did it! We made it happen. It was shaky there for a while, but opening up my computer this morning to just about funded certainly made my day start off well! We are so excited to say that Power Plants is going to be made a reality. To be honest, we did expect this campaign to fund much earlier than it did. But here we are! Thank you to those of you who hopped on right away, to those of you who learned about our campaign yesterday, and to those of you who just made us go over the funding point. We can't do any of this without you! We appreciate your support more than you know!

What We're Working On

We have many more alternative plants we'd like to reach which will make for so much more variability to this game. But the Spades micro-expansion is so exciting, giving you more control over which patches you have at your disposal!

It seems like this beautiful campaign is hidden under the cool shade of several other pretty huge campaigns right now.  We've got so much planned for Power Plants and we want to make it all happen. 

How You Will Help

We are funded but this is going to be a long campaign and we want to start hitting Stretch Goals! When things get tough, we have to meet those things head-on and keep "growing".  So we need your help to get things moving.

Funded and a Stretch Goal On the Same Day?
over 2 years ago – Sun, Oct 31, 2021 at 12:22:21 AM

Hey Wizards!!

We did it! We did it! Thank you for pushing this campaign to our first Stretch Goal! If you have just recently joined us, thank you so much for finding us and backing this incredible tile laying, area control game! We are so happy to have you here with us. If you've been here since launch, we're so happy to have kept you with us. We appreciate your support more than you know! Lots to talk about this update, so I'll just get to it!

What We Have Unlocked

More variability ... sweet success!!

What We're Working On

Spades are not as sweet, but they sure help you dig yourself a different Patch tile. 

More variability!!

Look at this stunning bag! Can't have a bag in the game without it being silk screened!

Even more variability!!

Wooden Gems!!!! Wooden GEMS!!!!!! I don't think I need to say anymore about how amazing these are!

We need these, Wizards. Let's make this happen!!  

How You Can Help

Earlier today I told you about a few ways you can help spread the word (Tweeting, sharing on Facebook, and sharing in your social media circles). There is one more great way to share this campaign.

--> Thanks to Backer Francois Turgeon for suggesting that we get Power Plants on the Kicktraq Hotlist. If you want to make a comment on the Power Plants campaign, make sure to get there through this link first. The more backers that do it, the more likely we'll move up on the Hot List. Yesterday we were number 17, but currently we are not even on it. Surely we can do better than that!

That's all for this update, Wizards!
