Thank you for your support! The Go Fish Deck is now officially unlocked. Two weeks left so I guess we’d better get some new stretch goals up soon. :)

If you have the time, tune in to Scott’s art stream today at 11 am Mountain to chat and see him work on one of the cards.

Live Art Stream Today (May 1) at 11:30 am Mountain

We are at the half way point in the campaign today and to mark the day, you can watch Scott work on card art and chat with him live at 11:30 am Mountain time today, May 1!  You'll have to tune in to see which card (or cards) he works on but I've heard a rumor that it might be the King of Spades for the Custom Deck.

Tune in to twitch.tv/frogpants at 11:30 am Mountain!

New Art Previews!
almost 8 years ago – Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 07:03:29 PM

Thanks again to every one for supporting this Kickstarter! We have less than $1,000 to go to our next stretch goal--unlocking 4 more bonus jokers! And then on to the Go Fish deck stretch goal!

Would you like to see some previews of cards from the already unlocked decks?  Then you've come to the right update! We'll be getting a lot more previews finished and posted over the next week but for now here is a little taste of my Zombie deck, the Art deck and the one everyone has been asking about--Carter's deck.  Enjoy!

Let's Talk Add ons!
almost 8 years ago – Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 08:38:11 AM

Hello All!

We've had a number of questions about if we will offer add-ons and how they will work.  We wanted to wait until we had unlocked some of our major stretch goals before we rolled out the details so we could tell you about all the different items available at once.  You've helped us unlock our first 7 stretch goals and we are super close to #8 so the time has come.

The Basics

We created a lot of reward levels to give you lots of choices but we know we can't create every option a backer might want so add-ons let you build the exact package that you would like.  Maybe you want more decks than our levels offer? Or you want to get an uncut sheet level but you also want a pint glass or two? Below you will see a list of all the items you can add to your package and their price to make that happen.  When the campaign ends, we will be sending a survey via Backerkit to every backer to collect shipping info and reward choices for your pledge and that is also where you will make your add-on choices.  

There are two choices for funding your add-ons:

  • Prefund Addons - You can calculate the total amount you will need for any add-ons you want from the list below and add that amount on to your pledge in Kickstarter.  You will be charged for your pledge and that additional money at the close of the campaign and the cash will be available on your account when you receive your Backerkit survey and you can make all your exact selections then. With this option, the dollars you add for add-ons will count towards the final goal and help unlock additional stretch goals.
  • Fund Add-ons via Backerkit Survey - You can also make your pledge and not add additional funds for add-ons and wait until the survey is received to both make and pay for any add-ons you want.  There is no difference in price between the options, however add-ons that are funded after the campaign via the survey will not contribute to the stretch goal totals.

All add-on prices listed include shipping to US backers. For international backers, additional shipping charges (if any) will be calculated based on your total add-ons when you receive the survey.

Add-on Options and Prices

Additional Decks - you can add more copies of any unlocked deck in any combination you would like.  At this time, there are 6 total decks available to choose from and 1 more that could still be unlocked:

  • Scott's Custom Deck (Blue Card Back)
  • Zombie Deck
  • Frogpants Concentration Deck
  • Scott's Custom Deck (Red Card Back)
  • Carter's Deck
  • Art Deck
  • Go Fish Deck (currently locked)

Pricing options are available for single decks and also for discounted bundles of 6 Decks. The bundle is set at 6 decks to allow you to add all 6 of our stretch goal decks for one price but you can mix and match the 6 decks however you like.  If you want all 6 decks, 6 Zombie Decks, 3 Concentration/3 Go Fish, etc--it is totally up to you. Pricing is as follows:

  • 1 Deck                     $15
  • 6 Decks                   $72

Poker Chips - with the unlocking of our first stretch goal, every backer (except for those at the Two and Three of Frogs level) will be receiving a custom poker chip and certain reward levels contain additional chips.  But some of you may want more chips and we have multiple options for you.  There will be a total of 4 different color chips available. We will also offer two options for a gunmetal case/deck and chip bundle--1 with 100 chips & choice of 1 deck, 1 with 300 chips & choice of 2 decks.  Pricing is as follows:

  • 1 Chip                                                                                     $2
  • 10 Chips (one color)                                                             $15
  • 25 Chips (one color)                                                             $35
  • 50 Chips (up to 2 different colors)                                      $60
  • 100 Chips (up to 3 different colors)                                    $100
  • 300 Chips (up to 4 different colors)                                    $225
  • Case with 100 Chips, 1 Deck (up to 3 different colors)     $150
  • Case with 300 Chips, 1 Deck (up to 4 different colors)     $275

Uncut Sheets - our decks will be printed in sheets of 15 cards with a total of 4 sheets per deck.  We will be offering two uncut sheet add-ons--a single sheet or a set of 4 sheets of a single, complete deck.  Each card will be signed by the artist--either Scott or Carter--of that deck.

  • Single Signed, Uncut Sheet                                 $30
  • Set of 4 Signed, Uncut Sheet (full deck)             $90

Pint Glasses - Want some cool pint glasses to enjoy a nice beverage while you are using your new cards?  We have add-ons for one or a set of four available.  Pint glasses will have Kickstarter campaign themed art on two sides with preview art available soon.

  • One Pint Glass                   $20
  • Four Pint Glass Set           $60

T-Shirt - The campaign t-shirt will have both front and back art with preview art available soon.  It will be available in unisex, ladies and youth styles in sizes from XS to 5X.

  • T-Shirt                                  $30

Changes to Existing Levels

Along with releasing these add-ons, we have one change to existing levels to announce.  These additions apply to all current backers and any new backers.

  • Ten of Frogs - now includes 10 poker chips in addition to all listed rewards

Any questions, please let us know.  Thank you once again for supporting this Kickstarter!  Before we go, how about some more preview art?  You may have seen these when Scott shared them on Twitter but if just in case, here are the first two jokers.
