Hello friends!
As you may already know, our Kickstarter for Captain’s Gambit: Kings of Infinite Space is going live on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2020! Depending on when you see this, it might be live right now!
If you want to support us, but you’re not familiar with how Kickstarter works, read on!
What is Kickstarter?
Kickstarter is a crowdfunding platform used for creative projects, such as films, music, technology, and games. Backers pledge money towards projects to help them come to life and support their creative process. To thank backers for their support, you get rewards based on the amount you pledge, such as special thank-you’s or copies of the game.
Kickstarter is an all-or-nothing platform, meaning that the creators only get funds if they hit their funding goal. If the funding goal is not reached at the end of the campaign, all pledges will be refunded to backers.
Why are we using Kickstarter?
As a small, independent company, crowdfunding is the only way we can raise the funds we need to make Captain’s Gambit a reality. Sudden unexpected changes aside, all art and design is already complete. All that is left is manufacturing and shipping - which we don’t have the funds to pay for out of pocket. But with your support, we can make it happen.

If you’re interested in one day owning Captain’s Gambit, the best way you can support us is to pledge now on Kickstarter. Backing as close to Day 1 as possible can really help us get the momentum we need to succeed.
First you’ll have to make an account, either by connecting your Facebook or by adding your email. Click here to make an account.
Once the campaign is live, you can go to Kickstarter to back us. Here are instructions on how to actually pledge on Kickstarter.
Once you’re all set up, click here to visit our campaign page and pledge!
As an added note, the Captain’s Tier, the Star-Crossed Tier, and the Galaxy Tier all charge the same flat rate for shipping. This means that ordering 1x copy of the game in the Captain’s Tier costs the same amount of shipping as ordering x4 copies of the game at the Galaxy Tier.
So if you have friends or family in the city, consider backing together at the Star-Crossed or Galaxy tier so that you can pick up from the same address and split shipping.
What are some other ways you can support us?
