Well everyone - we're in the FINAL 12 hours now! And we're a little under $2K away from that $170K stretch goal!
I know I mentioned in the last update, but I wanted to make sure it wasn't lost in all of the updates and news and the huge boss mega thread (which looks like could become a reality!)
This livestream is for you - the backers. It isn't promotional, and it's just gonna be a way for us to talk to you, answer any questions you may have, and get to hang out with you in a more special way after the last 31 days of this campaign together. We did something similar for Lost Dragons, and it was a really special experience, and we really want that for Lost Adventures as well.
For those of you who've attempted my streams, you'll know I'm much better at YouTube videos vs. streaming, so Nick will be helping us stream from his Twitch channel. Here are the details below, and mark your calendars later on today!
WHAT: Lost Adventures Kickstarter End of Campaign FAQ's + More Live Stream
WHO: Danny, Caitlin, Dillon, and Nick - Danny will be on the whole time and some of the other team will be rotating in and out of the stream and the chat.
WHY: We'll answer common questions we've received over the course of the campaign, but prioritize questions in chat of course!
Many of you are new and haven't filtered through all 900+ comments to see some of the organic discussion, and we get it, so we figured this would be a good opportunity to connect with you all face to face. Here's your chance! :)
Q: Will it be recordedin case we can't attend/watch? We're going to do our best and run some tests tonight, but I don't want to make any promises that we can't keep. We ran some stream tests two nights ago, and again tonight, so I'm confident that we can stream this, but I can't promise we'll have a recording of it afterwards. Apologies ahead of time!
If any of you record the stream, I'd be happy to share it with the other backers who can't attend! Just let me know if you get around to it.
See you all later today! Thanks again,
Danny
Surprise $170K Boss Stretch goal: Community-Chosen Boss Via Voting Thread
over 4 years ago
– Thu, Aug 29, 2019 at 01:55:29 AM
Hello Lost Adventurers,
**This is the thread where backers can vote for the $170K Boss Stretch Goal. No other thread counts for voting**
For a final stretch...if the campaign hits $170k, the community will get to vote on a final backer-voted boss!
This was a suggestion from a backer and we absolutely loved it, and decided to run with it.
Just to be clear for legal reasons: By posting here, you are giving us full rights to use your ideas, monsters, encounters, and so on. Please click this link to read more.
This stretch goal will happen over TWO phases.
Here's how it works:
PHASE ONE: Nominate Your Boss Monster!
Backers will comment on THIS thread with their boss monster idea. No other thread/comments will count in the final counting.
This Phase will happen REGARDLESS of where the campaign funding ends at.
You can also nominate other boss monster ideas if you like them by writing something like "Pit Fiend +1"
Please limit your total boss monsters + other boss nominations to no more than 3 total.
PHASETWO: Vote For The Most Popular Bosses!
Votes and nominations will be added up and the TOP 5 most popular bosses will be voted on in a Google Form Poll (just like the campaign stretch goal voting).
This Phase will only happen if the campaign reaches $170K.
No concept art will be made for these in the voting stage - but will be made once backers select a winner.
We will update backers regarding the winner and progress just like with all of the other boss sculpts throughout the campaign.
We're looking forward to this - and are REALLY excited to see what you all come up with.
BRING ON THE BOSS MONSTERS! :D
Big hug from me and the rest of the team,
Danny
The Last 28 Hours Mega Update: Live Stream, More Freebies, LAAAAAST Stretch Goals, And More!
over 4 years ago
– Thu, Aug 29, 2019 at 01:20:15 AM
*Note: We had some kind of glitch where one of our last updates was replaced by one of our saved updates we were working on. This is the FINALIZED update, so please disregard the previous one!*
___________________________
What a campaign this has been! But it isn't over yet...
With only28 hours left, we've hit all of the planned stretch goals - and it is all thanks to you. We've been tagged in more pictures of Bugbears, Owlbears, Bridges, Mimics, and Bushes than we can count - and it's made us so happy to see your prints out in the wild, and has been really great for the campaign. Thanks again for sharing everyone!
EVERYTHING Unlocked!
That is right ladies and gentleman...we've unlocked ALL of our planned stretch goals! THANK YOU! I'll be sharing the results of the survey tomorrow like normal so everyone knows who won for the fun of it :)
The Final 28~ Hours
Aside from the unlocks, a lot has happened in the past few days since our last update, and a lot more will happen in the next 28~ hours that we have left as of writing this update. Here's what you have to look forward to as a backer:
ANOTHER Campaign Freebie: Infinite Dimension's Ancient Tomb!
As a very generous gift, Infinite Dimensions Games will be giving all $1 campaign backers their Ancient Tomb! This isn't a stretch goal - it's just another beautiful model for you all to play with that will work VERY well with ours! We're going to be working it into our campaign and an encounter as well.
We'll be including this as part of our graveyard encounter that will be released later along with the graveyard mimics. You'll receive this model after the KS fee processing is completed.
If you like this model, you can find MUCH more on their website, and yes...it is all this beautiful. Check it out here: https://www.infinitedimensions.ca
End of Campaign Live Stream TOMORROW!
We will be having a livestream tomorrow to celebrate a succesful end of campaign and connect with you all with a different format. Also I'm terrible at streaming, so Nick will be helping us stream from his Twitch channel. Here are the details below, and mark your calendars!
WHAT: Lost Adventures Kickstarter End of Campaign FAQ's + More Live Stream
WHY: We'll answer common questions we've received over the course of the campaign, but prioritize questions in chat of course!
This is something we did during Lost Dragons, and it was so fun, that we decided we needed to do it again. Many of you are new and haven't filtered through all 900+ comments to see some of the organic discussion, and we get it, so we figured this would be a good opportunity to connect with you all face to face.
Q: Will it be recordedin case we can't attend/watch? We're going to do our best and run some tests tonight, but I don't want to make any promises that we can't keep. We ran some stream tests last night, so I'm confident that we can stream this, but I can't promise we'll have a recording of it afterwards. Apologies ahead of time!
Surprise $160K Stretch Goal: More Heroes!
I started to write this before going into work today...but by the time I got back we already passed $160K :X So here's a new set that just got added: including a Dwarf Cleric, Human Fighter, and an Elf Ranger.
Some context: These were some of the original sculpts we made for this Kickstarter, and we weren't sure whether to include them originally or not. They didn't really match the campaign, so we were probably going to be saving them for the next Kickstarter, but we hit $155k much faster than I expected...so I decided to include them this time anyways :) We hope you love them!
Surprise $170K Boss Stretch goal: Community-Chosen Boss Via Voting Thread
For a final stretch...if the campaign hits $170k, the community will get to vote on a final backer-voted boss! You can find the full thread and add your boss suggestions HERE.
Pledge Manager & Delivery Fulfillment Change
Originally we'd planned to fulfill through our website, 3DPrintedTabletop.com. That has now changed and we will be fulfilling via BackerKit and Dropbox for this Kickstarter. More details will be coming, but we just wanted to share ahead of time.
We got a lot of really, REALLY great suggestions for add-ons in the open-ended section, and wanted to ask about the ones that were repeated often throughout the campaign. We'd love for your feedback before going into the Pledge Manager period after the campaign end.
Free Bugbear Mini Sample
For those of you who backed the campaign late and missed the free Bugbear Mini ahead of time - I will be sending out a message to all-in backers again once the campaign ends. It will be sent out tomorrow evening after the campaign end at 7 PM via message, and once again: It will go out to all current backers and the custom download links will be valid for another 3 days until the end of the month.
Thank You
I can honestly say that from beginning to end...this campaign has been a blast. Thank you all for your suggestions, feedback, and comments. Every minute has been a pleasure for us, and we're looking forward to bringing it all together for you all.
See you tomorrow on the livestream!
Big hug from me and the rest of the team,
Danny

SEVENTH Stretch Goal Poll Results + EIGTH Stretch Goal Poll + Overall Stretch Goal Update
over 4 years ago
– Mon, Aug 26, 2019 at 01:24:31 AM
Greetings Lost Adventures!
As of a few hours ago, the seventh stretch goal poll has officially closed. For those interested, 1302 Backers participated in the sixth stretch poll. Below is the SEVENTH backer-voted stretch goal poll sets that are now going to be included in all-in pledges:
Stretch Goal #15 + Boss #7 Poll Winners
Stretch Goal #15 Winner(with 28.7% of the votes)...
Boss #7 Winner (with a landslide 54.2% of the votes)...
Stretch Goal Poll #8 Now Open! (for Stretch Goals #16 + #17, Boss #8)
Just like with the first six stretch goal polls, "All-In" backers will receive a message with a link to the poll- and a backer-only update will also be linked for those who back after the message is sent so they can vote. Expect that message and update shortly!
You'll notice a few questions about add-ons as well. We always love to hear from you, and just want to see if we there's any interest in any of these add-ons later on through the pledge manager.
The End Of The Stretch Goal Map
Ladies, gentleman, and fellow Lost Adventurers: below is the most recent stretch goal map.
When we first made it, we made it extra long, "just in case," and well...we can now see the badlands, and the floating portal within them. This portal is the official end of our stretch goal map. Beyond that portal is an entire new volume of Lost Adventures (which we haven't even started thinking of yet).
In other words: We've made it to the end of this Lost Adventure! But we've still got some time left...
The end of the stretch goal map means we have no more planned stretch goals. To be clear: The Lost Adventures last planned stretch goal will be at $155K. If the campaign does hit $155K - that would mean we've unlocked EVERY stretch goal, and means all-in backers have all unlocked the following:
20 Stretch Goal Mini Sets (Totaling 72 mini models)
10 Stretch Goal Boss Minis
20 Additional Encounters
20 Additional Encounter Maps
20 Additional Scatter/Terrain Sets
20 Additional Props
Q: Why aren't we adding more stretch goals? Even if you don't count the stretch goal minis that are already completed and tested, the list right above this paragraph is an incredible amount of product for us to create. We are SO excited that our project has done so well - and we've scrambled to make even more stretch goals than we originally had planned, but we need to make sure we can focus on creating encounters, props, terrain sets, and boss minis, that meet our quality standard, in a reasonable time frame. To be clear: This was a priority for me after running Lost Dragons, and in order to ensure this, I made the decision to call it at $155k.
We have done everything we can to expedite the new boss concepts based on backer feedback, and the stretch goal sets we added throughout the campaign. It's been a bit stressful rushing them, but we hope you've enjoyed getting new additions throughout the campaign. We hope you're as excited about these sets as we are - as we've done our very best to add as much value as possible, at no additional cost, to all of you. We honestly couldn't be more excited to make all of this content and these models for you all.
The Final Stretch
The response, especially in the past few days, has been incredible. We're overwhelmed with gratitude, and are so excited to wrap this campaign up. But the campaign isn't over just yet! Sharing your test prints, your paint jobs, and connecting with friends all over has been amazing for the campaign...let's keep it up and see if we can unlock them all! :)
This is all thanks to YOU! Our backers! So once again, a hearty hug from all of us to all of you,
Danny
P.S. Would anybody be interested in a "end of the day" live stream like we did for Lost Dragons? I could try painting Revaniss (but no promises to quality here everyone).
