KICKSTARTER UPDATE: The Mad Kings Ire - Converge Games

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Math Rocks, 

We've just had an update from our friends over at Converge Games in regard to their Kickstarter project "The Mad Kings Ire" Here's what they had to say:

Firstly Thank you so much to all of you that have backed, we truly couldn’t have gotten this far without you! The Mad King’s Ire development continues at a fast pace, we are now in the finishing touches stage and it won’t be long before manufacturing begins, and good news here! If you haven’t already it is not too late to back! Head to our Pledge Manager on Hive and you still have a chance to back at the Kickstarter discounted price and get all the extra goodies as well! The pledge manager won’t be open forever, so, if you are thinking about it, get over there before the pledge manager closes! Late Pledges are available via Hive. Get your copy of Shattered Destinies - The Mad King’s Ire for up to 47% OFF Testing Complete! I am pleased to say after hundreds of hours of testing and demos, all content is complete, and every piece of content has been tested and adjusted/nerfed/buffed where needed. We’ve changed the worst offending Ire Cards that would all but guarantee to end your run in failure, and buffed up some of the worst performing skills. There are still a crazy amount of powerful combos of skills and items to discover, and I’m sure there are some that we haven’t even considered. I can’t wait to see all the build ideas you put together during your adventures once we get The Mad King’s Ire to your tables! This one, we kept in the game. A combo of two Escalations (which make the game harder), and one skill, can mean you’ll be dropping bombs on your foes with regularity. Just make sure it is fully upgraded, or shout a warning to your allies before you blow everything up! Final Checks Underway Final proofreading and adjustments are now being finalised, we should have everything complete and ready for the manufacturers by the end of the week! We are on track with our timeline, we will continue to keep you updated if anything changes! Rulebook revamp! We’ve updated the rulebook based on testing and feedback and our amazing graphic designer is busy redesigning the layout to improve the look and readability! I’ll include a link to the new rulebook in the next update! We’ve added some surprise extras! Although our Kickstarter didn’t quite hit our £50,000.00 Stretch Goal, we added it anyway! We felt the Game Organiser was far too good quality of life not to include, we want you to be able to get The Mad King’s Ire to the table as often as possible and we don’t want the barrier of a lengthy set up. With the organiser you can be ready to begin your adventures in 2 minutes! We also added 8 new items to the Twisted Traps expansion - because we could! Including a couple of clockwork pals and some ways to mitigate the danger of the new trap mechanic! So if you've been putting it off...here's a FINAL reminder... Get The Mad King’s Ire NOW for up to 47% OFF before it's too late! Backing our campaign will take less than 3 minutes and will get you The Ultimate Dungeon Crawler. A fast paced, quick to set up and play, character building adventure like no other! We put our hearts and souls into creating and designing The Mad King’s Ire - and we want you to know that your support is what fuels our fire and makes this community possible.  We hope you’ll choose to continue supporting us today, and experience not only our amazing game, but join our amazing community at Converge Games.
