Latest Updates from Our Project:

Spring Weeds Are Always The Strongest!
almost 5 years ago – Mon, Jun 03, 2019 at 12:39:02 AM

Hi everyone!

We just wanted to send out a quick update! We sort of found ourselves in the weeds the past few weeks, and for some reason have had a hell of a time setting up our Backerkit store... But fear not we should have the store up sometime this week (seriously this time!), and we might even have some neat schwag available as add-ons too! 

In the meantime, how about a first look at some completed art by the talented Devon George... Specifically art for the helm "Thirsty Thorsday"!

'Til next time!

The (Almost) 2 Week Check-In
almost 5 years ago – Sat, May 11, 2019 at 12:12:11 AM

A fair amount has happened in the near 2 weeks since the campaign closed. We want to keep you up-to-date on Valhallamas without burying you in emails. Here we go...

  • We have had a few inquiries from folks who missed out on the campaign wondering if they can still get in on the action. Well good news for them! We will be adding a pre-sales store as soon as everything is finalized with Kickstarter.
  • Our artist from Red Scare Redux, Danielle Brown, is going to join us in adding some polish to the designs of this game. If you have seen her work, you know how excited we are about this!
  • Speaking of incredible artists, Devon George, has delivered us some of the inks for the second round of art. We could tell you about how great they are turning out, or...

  Thank you, as always, for being incredible and helping us get this game off the ground. We will be in touch soon.

What a campaign!
about 5 years ago – Tue, Apr 30, 2019 at 12:48:33 AM

Well here we are. End of the campaign. 30 days ago we were launching this project just ahead of doors opening for day 3 at PAX East. Now we find ourselves here, completely astonished. Every campaign launches with a mixture of confidence and uncertainty; this campaign was no different. We felt very good about this game, but we never expected to exceed 800%; not sure anyone does.

We are so excited that this game is going to market. That is all thanks to you, our wonderful backers! We can't explain what it feels like to have so many of you believe in this project. Thank you all!

Because our goal was hit early we were able to get right back to work finishing this game. We signed the contract on art a few weeks ago and work has already begun; Devon delivered the first batch of concept sketches last week. We have also started the work of polishing some of the other aspects of the game. For any of you who have come out to demo with us recently, know that we have a conversation about every thought you share regarding layout, mechanics, and components. There have been a lot of conversations.

Once we have floated back from Cloud 9 we will be sending an update (or two) about post-campaign life. Until then, know that we are completely humbled and so unbelievably grateful to each and every one of you.

We are live on Kickstarter and live at PAX East! You can head to booth 10096 to try out Valhallamas first hand! We even have some swag for people who demo.

Yes. Those are Valhallamas sunglasses.

Since the whole team will be at PAX for the weekend, we apologize in advance if we are slow to respond to messages or questions. We will do our best to get back to you as soon as we can.

Stretched to the limit!
about 5 years ago – Sun, Apr 28, 2019 at 07:45:24 PM

Well, we hit them all. Every. Single. Stretch goal... wow. I am really at a loss for words, so let me start by saying something I have said before: Thank you all! You are amazing!

To go with all the other upgraded pieces going in to Valhallamas, the first player token will be metal. Taunt the opposition with your shiny treasure. Spin it in your knuckles like a sleight-of-hand expert. Reflect light in your opponents' eyes. Do whatever you want. You get first move.

In Other News:

We are in the last week of this incredible campaign, and will be kicking it off with a Valhallamas Night at The Castle: A Boardgame Cafe in Beverly, Massachusetts. This event is April 24th, 7pm-10pm. If you are in the Boston area, drop in and say hello. Grab some food, a drink, some Valhallamas schwag and play a round. We hope to see you there!
