Latest Updates from Our Project:

BackerKit Incoming
about 5 years ago – Fri, Mar 08, 2019 at 11:33:31 PM

Hey folks!

Alan Bahr from Gallant Knight Games here. I'm helping Ben on the back end and serving as a project manager of sorts for him.

Today, we'll be sending out the smoke test for the BackerKit, so some of you will receive surveys (about 5% of you.) If everything goes according to plan and there are no issues with that 5%, the rest of the surveys will go out en masse on Monday!

You'll get an email to your Kickstarter email allowing to log in, assign any extra funds or purchase any extra add-ons you want, and handle your shipping by providing us your address. 

Thanks for your patience, and expect the surveys Monday for the bulk of you!

January Update!

Greetings! The Knights are marching along in order! It's been rather quiet here for all of you so I thought I'd drop you a line and update everyone on the Status of the Project.

  • Kickstarter Funds received!
  • Stretch Goal Authors have their writing assignments and are scribbling away!
  • Art Descriptions are written and were sent off to Cynthia today
  • The Backer Survey is not out yet, but we are working on it. Hopefully, it will hit soon. 
  • To get a jump on custom Nighty Knight characters I have just messaged the 28 backers to begin the creation process.
  • The primary text rough draft is done, and sent off. The stretch goal text and custom characters text will be added to the file for our copy editor to edit all together. 

If you have any questions, please let me know. Message me here, on Facebook on the Gallant Knight Games or Wunderwerks pages, or on the GKG Discord. :)

Thank you for being awesome!

You folks are amazing. I didn't think we'd break $26,000, but you pulled it out right at the end. I'm blown away by your interest and generosity.

I've said it too many times, but thank you. Your support is what allows me to continue crafting games for you. My job, full time, is creating and writing new games because of your support. I've wanted to do this since I was a teenager, and now I am. It's a dream come true.

Let's Get Down to Business!

  • Kickstarter takes roughly 14 business days to process and collect all funds from backers, faster if there aren't any hiccups. But the average is 14 days. For now, I'm mostly waiting on getting the funds so we can move forward.
  • But I'm not resting on my laurels. After Thanksgiving is over, I'll be sending out the Nighty Knights style guide to my authors and work with them to launch their stretch goals.
  • I will also be writing more art descriptions for our talented Cynthia Williams to create more art for the game.
  • Then I will be sending out specific instructions to all those who backed at levels to receive plush knights, and those who will be getting a character write up in the book.
  • Meanwhile, Alan Bahr will be setting up our Pledge Manager. We hope the system we use will be as painless as possible. As soon as that is live you will be notified here.
  • Finally, our copy editor will get the rough draft right after Thanksgiving to begin the process of polishing it into a final draft ready for layout.
  • I will keep you updated as significant information becomes available. 

Thank you again for being amazing. You guys rocks!

For Underbed and the Dreamlands!

Las 30 Hours Are Go! ALL IS REVEALED!
over 5 years ago – Tue, Nov 20, 2018 at 07:44:14 AM

Some big names have appeared on the Stretch Goal List! Let's see if we can reach them all!

 Alana Joli Abbott, Steve Radabaugh, James M. Spahn, Eloy Lasanta, and Jack Norris all join us to help push back the darkness in these final hours! :D

  • The Herd - A new adventure by Alana Joli Abbott! Some children have teddy bears. Others have monkeys, or the odd panda or giraffe. The Herd has elephants. Their charges? Two cousins who live across country from each other, but whose bedrooms are connected through the Dreamlands. The monsters? Well let's just say there are some kinds of monsters only elephants can handle.
  • OMG, the Pinkest Room EVAR! - In a world dominated by traditional toys comes this 1980's micro-setting by Steve Radabaugh. What happens when a by the book doll is stuck with a rookie toy from one of those new Licensed Toy Lines. Old meets new in this Pepto Pink room where girls just want to have fun...and crush monsters!
  • Little Wars - Keep a stiff upper lip as you join forces with tin soldiers, sawdust animals, and porcelain dolls fighting an endless war within the parlor against the Victorian monsters who creep from the cellar and out the boiler vents. A Victorian micro-setting by James M. Spahn!
  • Irunmole - In the distant future, Irunmole guide, teach, and protect children from the darkness that waits in the depths of the void. You are one of these guides in Eloy Lasanta's new micro-setting!
  • Beyond the Fire - Before history humanity survived within the edges of the light given off by their fires. There small creatures of blood, bone, and fur were crafted to protect the children of the tribes from the things even predators feared. The shaman has given you life, now you must protect your charges in Jack Norris's new micro-setting!

Let's make this happen.

For Our Charges and Underbed!
