Giving The Gift of Play!Not only did you guys help us fund this campaign (and unlock a ton of stretch goals), you helped us give the Gift of Play to some wonderful kids! With Mythos Games help, we donated 18 table top games to Primary Children’s Hospital! It was such an amazing experience to help out these kids who are fighting for their lives. So THANK YOU everyone!! This was a feat we could not have done without you guys! The representative from the hospital was super grateful and excited for these kids. - Avalee
Kim, Avalee and Scott (from Mythos Games)
“These games… make a huge difference. Especially right now with Covid,our Playrooms have been shut down. These games reallyhelp, thekids can play with us or their families, and that really helps them to heal, so thank you!”-Primary Children’s Representative.
This truly was a touching experience. These games will help countless kids for years and years to come. From here on out, we plan on continuing to donate tabletop games to those in need in future Kickstarter Campaigns! Thank you for your support! If you know any other game developers who wish to donate a copy of their game(s), please send them our way, (or if you know any groups who could use the Gift of Play, let us know.) We’re planning on giving to the local Women's Shelter through a portion of the proceeds from the next campaign. -Kim

Hi guys, hope all is well! Summer has finally arrived here, so I can continue spending all my time inside wishing I was outside. Weeeeee adulthood!
REMINDERS:
Production Schedule: Just a reminder that Backers will not receive email notifications when files are updated. Please keep an eye on the Production Schedule for file fixes and file release dates. It's not ideal, but I tried sending custom email file updates in the last campaign and almost half of them bounced back.
Merchants - this past week was a really stressful one regarding varied issues from this group. Please review these reminders to help reduce these issues in the future:
Merchant Images: You are welcome to use the renders we’ve supplied for your listings, however, use of any other FatesEnd images (such as photos) are strictly prohibited. Above all - never ever (EVER EVER EVER EVER) use photos belonging to other Merchants. That’s very much not ok and creates a ton of stress and time on my side. (Seriously, please, I have SO much to do already, these types of issues are burning me out.)
NEW MERCHANTS: If you did not receive your Merchant License, please send me an email (with your backer email address) and I’ll issue you one: [email protected] (***Backerkit does not send me any sort of notification when new backers purchase a Merchant License, so I need backers to contact me for their licenses.)
If you find a FatesEnd Listing that doesn’t include the Merchant License, please send me an email: [email protected]. Please do not call them out publicly or contact them - I will handle it.
We did discover a website where they have stolen a few of your listings and Merchant License images. (Did I say last week stressed me out?!) We’re trying to force them to take the listings down. If any of you know someone from the Better Business Bureau or a similar group, please help us. If you want a link to the website, please send me an email and I’ll send it to you. I don’t want to promote them here.
OK, the fun stuff! Please check your Google Drive(s) for these files: (you can always access them at: https://fatesend.backerkit.com)

Hi guys! Hope all is well! Good news! All of the FE1 ornaments have been uploaded (*and I rescaled the tower versions that were at their full size.) Please scale the Dice Jail ornaments as you wish. I left them a little large compared to the Towers.

Hi guys, I hope you’re all doing well! Just some quick updates before we show today’s release:
Personal Note: There’s a ton of things to track with this campaign and I’m working hard to make sure I don’t miss anything, and while I’m feeling much better after Covid, but I’m struggling with fatigue and my brain is, well, super mushy. If something is missing or if something isn’t clear, please let me know: [email protected]. I’ll use the bi-monthly updates to help clarify things as well as announce released files.
Reminder: Please oh PLEASE check the Production Schedule for release dates and file update notes: https://www.fatesend.net/production-schedule This is a live document and I update it often.
The release info for Add-ons can be found on the right-side of the Production Schedule. All FE1 tower ornaments have been uploaded to their directory. I’ll be working on the FE1 Dice Jail versions over the next week.
IMPORTANT -- NEW MERCHANTS: If you did not receive your Merchant License, please send me an email (with your backer email address) and I’ll issue you one: [email protected] (***Backerkit does not send me any sort of notification when new backers purchase a Merchant License, so I need backers to contact me for their licenses.)
If you find a FatesEnd Listing that doesn’t include the Merchant License, please send me an email: [email protected](please don’t call them out in the FB groups or on Discord, I don’t want anyone to feel called out).
Merchant Page on FatesEnd.net: I am SO sorry, but I’ve decided to pull this page (for now) since potential buyers aren’t actually using it, and I haven’t found a simple solution for displaying/importing Merchant info that doesn’t cost a fortune. 😕 Everything I spend my time on has to be weighed against the HUGE constant list of to-dos, and I don't think the Merchant page been a positive return so far. I'm so sorry Merchants. We spent a few days looking over solutions, but we were unable to find a good one for now.
Print Testing Group (FE2 Backers only). If you're a FE2 backer and you want to help print test, please join this FB Group (include your backer email address) https://www.facebook.com/groups/FatesEnd.PrintTesters then send me an email with your backer email address, then I'll send you the invite to the Print Test Google Drive.

This is it! Your FatesEnd2 surveys are going out today! Please keep an eye out for the survey in your inbox. We’re going to release them in stages, so please be patient.
***IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING BackerKit: You can’t access any files until your survey is filled out and locked (I will lock them on my end). If you want to make changes later, please fill out your survey and submit it (soon/now) then contact me later ([email protected]) when you’re ready to add an upgrade or add-ons, and I’ll unlock your survey.
Please watch this video for a walkthrough on filling out surveys. Some things have changed (slightly) but the process is pretty much the same:
Changes not shown in the video:
Upgrades: The No Thanks option is at the top on pg1
Personalize: You’ll be prompted to add your Personalize info here vs emailing to me
Place My Order: I had this wrong. After you click on this button, you can go back and make changes until I lock your order. Since backers are not able to access their files until I lock their orders, I’ll be locking orders every few hours today, then three times/day for the next week or so, then once per day on the weekdays from there on out.
Digital Downloads: Some of you may have duplicate links in your Digital Downloads section. I’m so sorry, I did try to fix this but I had no luck. Just ignore the duplicate links.
You can always access your survey OR files (*after completing your survey) here: https://fatesend.backerkit.com/Be sure to use the email address that you used when supporting this campaign in Kickstarter.
Also, look for Discord & FB links in the “Digital Downloads” section in Backerkit after you complete your survey. Please be sure to read the instructions before joining any of the groups.
A POX BE UPON THIS HOUSE! Wellp... after a full year of avoiding humans (like the plague), I have Covid. I’m ok aside from some difficulty breathing, a dry cough and some brain mushyness. If you need help, please be patient with me since I’m still pretty sick and we’re without childcare while we’re recovering AND trying to work still. Oh food… I miss tasting you! What a weird side effect!
Merchant License IDs: I’ve created all of the Merchant License IDs, but organizing/assigning/delivering them will take a little bit. Please be patient with me (and with each other) while I work on getting FE2 Merchants their Merchant License IDs. I will need you to finish your survey before I can assign you an ID.
Please review the Production Schedule for release dates: https://www.fatesend.net/production-schedule During Production: I’ll provide an update every other week or so to remind backers to check their links for new files. Please make sure you’re following this project to receive Update notifications.
