Hello Guardians, We have some important updates to share about the future of Mycelium Guardians. Our Kickstarter campaign has been approved, and were planning to launch in the coming months. This is a big step, and we want to approach it with honesty and clarity about our intentions and constraints. A Team Effort with a Solo Drive While we are a team passionate about Mycelium Guardians, I, Magic, am currently the only one working full-time on this project. Our goal remains steadfast: to complete and perfect Mycelium Guardians, making you truly feel like part of the fungal kingdom restoring life on a desolate planet. Why Kickstarter? The primary aim of this Kickstarter is to secure additional funding that will afford us more time to craft this experience thoughtfully and keep the scope manageable for our debut game. We want to ensure Mycelium Guardians not only launches but serves as a stepping stone for more creative projects in the future. Your Guidance is Crucial We are navigating this process and learning as we go, which means your feedback and support are more critical than ever. While Kickstarter is also a tool to raise awareness and confirm interest in Mycelium Guardians, its important to us that it doesnt detract from our main goal: finishing a game that we all can be proud of. About the Rewards Were focusing on digital rewards, including exclusive content like scanned notes, sketches, Blender 3D project files, and Godot 4 source files for early assets and prototypes. These rewards are designed to enrich your experience without overwhelming our development focus. Your input on these rewards and what youd find valuable is eagerly welcomed. Join Us on This Journey Please stay tuned for more updates as we finalize the launch date and the details of the campaign. We invite you to share your thoughts, suggestions, and questions on our forums and social media. Your guidance is crucial to making this Kickstarter a success and ensuring Mycelium Guardians becomes the game we all envision. Thank you for your passion, commitment, and understanding as we take this significant step together.
