Fellow Agent,

After you helped us successful fund the Starlings Box just a little over a month ago, we have been hard at work finalizing the design of the Starlings story and games. 

We are thrilled to report that production sampling has officially begun! After we recieve and approve the samples, we will know the final weight and proportions of the boxes and will be sending out a Backerkit survey shortly thereafter. 

Thank you for your support! We can’t wait to get the Starlings adventure box into your hands.

What an amazing journey, THANK YOU to everyone who backed The Starlings!

Wow. We woke up today to our Kickstarter successfully funded. We’re feeling grateful and incredibly excited! Now its our job to get the adventure fully developed and into your hands by summer! A big thanks to everyone on our team as well, we wouldn't be here without their dedication and incredible skill. Here are some important next-steps announcements, and One More Thing...

What happens next?

Our team will resume our efforts to bring The Starlings into mass-production. That includes putting the final touches on the graphic novel, testing, creating tooling for the wooden starlings boxes, finalizing the escape room challenges, selecting a final manufacturing partner and distribution partners, building pre-production prototypes, and much more.

  • We will be using BACKERKIT to handle all of our pledge management.  Look out for a survey email from them later this year, at which time  you'll be able to input your shipping address, calculate exact shipping/tax charges, and purchase any Starlings add-ons you're interested in. Don't ignore these emails, they're the way we'll be ensuring you get the exact game you pledged for.
  • We will be also sending updates through this Kickstarter page about twice per month to keep our backer community fully informed as we move  through the development and manufacturing processes.
  • For those who missed the Kickstarter, you'll be able to put in an order for The Starlings once our Pre-Order page opens up (just click the green button at the top of our page).

Once again, thank you so much! We cant wait to bring you The Starlings Adventure box.

Gratefully,

Jonny, Dave and the entire Starlings Team
