Latest Updates from Our Project:

Kickstarter live opening and review of the samples
about 7 years ago – Wed, Mar 29, 2017 at 07:45:58 PM

Kickstarter live is a good tool that needs to be integrated more for ease of use for the creators and backers of the projects. We did this video a few days ago and thought that it was live on the project. It appears it was not live on the project but luckily we have a link to share showing the video.

Vile Genius Games wants you to see first hand the processes we take to ensure that the products are being reviewed carefully. After today the game will go to our editor for one final check before all corrections are sent to the factory for final publication. This will be a Kickstarter live video and on Facebook. 

Samples came in and look good!
about 7 years ago – Fri, Mar 24, 2017 at 07:09:24 PM

We received our samples for the production run. So far they look great. We now need to go over and proof each card and the rule book. This should take the weekend to complete before approving the production run. 

We did find a couple of small problems at Gama with the samples that have already been addressed and the artist is working on correcting within the next day or two. 

We will post pictures and perhaps do a live stream of opening some of the boxes for backers this weekend. This is great news and production could start as early as Tuesday!

Production update 10!

Great news about the samples. We should have them at Gama on Monday! I know it has been a long time but once we see the samples we will be on the final step of getting the game manufactured. We do not anticipate much of a problem as we already addressed a lot of issues before the sample was created. We are hoping that there might only be a few small issues that are easy to fix so we can move forward with production. 

Here are some of the pictures sent to us by the factory. 

 

 

 Also Rocket Cats in Space is relaunching on Monday at Midnight. All backers from Thwarted get a limited edition pin just for Thwarted backers.
