Hey Fight Fans,
I wanted to post here about things for the Kickstarter and how they came about.
First off, I wanted to pay tribute one more time to the originals, and by doing so, used them for the parallels. I know some are like "wow, he's OP!" Well, there were 3 versions of each, and I wanted the rare and foils to be over the top. That's the point of rare and foils to me, make them their final stage.
T. Bolt- I had the pleasure of meeting Thunderbolt Patterson when meeting with Chad and him over pizza in Des Moines last year and a half. Thunderbolt would tell us some stories and I genuinely had a nice time. I felt like I'd like to honor him in the game with T. Bolt.
Overall, it was a great experience. It's almost been a year since the prototypes dropped, and I received so much good feedback on everything from the characters to the story to the quality of the product. I didn't just want to put anything out there, I wanted it to be good. That's why the playmat is like it is, it needed to be huge and it needed to be stitched. The art for it was really good and pops on that mat. The uncut sheets were something never done before and I wanted people a chance to have something like that. The Checklist I wanted to be good sized because it has a lot on it. The regular sized cards wouldn't do it justice unless I gave away magnifying glasses with it. I was really happy with the dice and how they came out. I went with the same company as the Champions of Time dice.
All in all, from start to finish, I was hoping to get you everything that would work, from dice to a playmat, to arena cards and a checklist. On top of all that, foil cards and varying levels of trading cards. Oh, the wax packs! Those came out well too, and I solved the sticking issue!
Others have asked if I'd do a series 2 and said that they'd be on board for it again. The answer is yes, and look at doing it for GFP! Day 2025. This will give me more time to get the art, get the cards and have most of the stuff ready to go for when it hits. I've learned from this one so I can better prepare for the next one. From this story now, the arc will play out, so knowing what's needed for 2025, I already know about.
The last thing I would like to say is thank you. To everyone that backed, gave ideas and critique, to those that late pledged and those that say they want more packs (coming Black Friday). It can't happen without all of you. Thank you to those who did and do videos on GFP, our exposure through you has helped increase our fan base so much. Your videos brought many new faces to the game that inevitably backed the Kickstarter because they saw it through certain channels. I appreciate what everyone does to help us grow!
Keep in mind that we will have a day for Packamania, The Super Rumble Draft! Also keep your pack points, as we will have something on what to do with them in the near future.
