Progress Update, Poll, Next Stretch Goal Met!
over 5 years ago – Mon, Nov 19, 2018 at 08:40:48 PM

Hello good backers,

We're glad to see most of you have finished answering the Backerkit surveys now. With $2,301 added funding from Backerkit addons, our total funding raised is currently as follows:

  • $34,323 Kickstarter
  • $1,030 PayPal
  • $2,301 Backerkit

For a total of $37,654! That means the next $37,000 stretch goal, to add a 3rd extra event CG to the game, has been reached! Thank you all for the support!

Murasaki is satisfied too

If the total raised reaches $39,500 before we move into fulfillment, the final stretch goal will be met as well, adding a Kickstarter-exclusive pin badge to all physical tiers!

All PayPal backers have also been manually added to Backerkit for surveys, so please take note if you signed up via PayPal.

Meanwhile, we've been hard at work on QA to make the game ready for release, as well as negotiating various details with the original developer, LIFE0. We've been informed that due to artist Miko's busy schedule, the additional stretch goal event CGs will be finished only around January. 

That presents a small conundrum - especially since we will be shipping a physical copy of the game, should we ship the game when it is otherwise finished (which was originally estimated for December), and provide a patch later, or only ship it after the new content has been added and tested (which would likely be in February at the earliest)? We'd like to hear what you think, so please let us know in the poll below:

In other news, a demo version of Seven Days, which includes up to the end of Sakura chapter, is currently in testing and is looking pretty good! We're looking forward to sharing it with you soon.

Did you notice we also have a Pre-order store up for Seven Days - anyone who missed the campaign can still order the Special Edition and other related goods there!

BackerKit Surveys Sent
over 5 years ago – Thu, Nov 01, 2018 at 01:21:30 AM

Hello good backers,

The BackerKit surveys have now been sent to all backers, please check your e-mail!

BackerKit allows you to upgrade your pledge levels, and in addition we're offering a variety of add-ons there, so take a look! 

Please note that while we're offering an add-on for the standalone audio drama for those not packing the Special Edition, the physical copy of "if scenario: Marriage" audio drama is already included in the Special Edition package itself - so you don't need the separate add-on if you're backing a tier that includes it.

Prepare to meet your friendly neighborhood ghost

All additional funding we raise on BackerKit (and PayPal - please note the PayPal pledges are still open until November 13) will count toward the remaining stretch goals - we're less than $2.000 away from the next one that will add a third extra CG to the English version!

If you have any questions regarding the surveys or items, don't hesitate to message us!

We also have a hosted pre-order store on BackerKit, where you can still claim most of the goods if you missed backing the project.

First Gameplay Video, Language Update
over 5 years ago – Wed, Oct 24, 2018 at 12:47:15 AM

Hello good backers!

We're happy to share with you the first direct gameplay preview video from Seven Days! We hope you'll enjoy these 36 minutes of gameplay!

-

The video's content isn't directly from the beginning of the game, but still from the early prologue, so be advised if you prefer your game experience completely unspoiled. 

We also have an important update regarding the planned languages for Seven Days. We have been preparing to release Seven Days in dual language (English and Japanese) until now, but after the campaign ended, LIFE0 shared with us they wish to release a Japanese version themselves on Steam. 

We want to support them in this endeavor as best we can, so our upcoming release will be English language only. Instead, all game backers will receive a separate Steam key for the Japanese version as well, once it's released.

We're sorry about the inconvenience this may cause.

Meanwhile, we have finished setting up the BackerKit for the campaign. There will be lots of add-ons waiting on the other side! The surveys will be sent out around October 26, after 2 weeks have passed since the Kickstarter campaign ended (so Kickstarter can have safely finished processing all pending payments). Look forward to more news on that.

PayPal pledges are still open, and will stay open until November 13 - if you missed the campaign and just want to grab one of the tiers, you can just pledge this way!

Again, both PayPal and BackerKit extra funding will count toward the remaining stretch goals.

Big thanks to all of you!

The campaign for Seven Days With You: The Most Precious Memory in Our Lives collector's edition is now finished!

We had an amazing surge in the final few days, and ended up hitting most of our stretch goals!

The end total on Kickstarter was $34.323, with an additional $675 on PayPal - that means the PayPal pledges already push us over the next stretch goal! A physical copy of the "if scenario: Marriage" audio drama will be added to the Special Edition package of Seven Days!

This isn't the end, either! Our PayPal pledges will remain open until November 13, and count toward the remaining stretch goals. In addition, we will be moving the campaign over to Backerkit once Kickstarter has finished processing the payments. We'll post more details regarding that at a later date. All the additional funding will count toward the stretch goals - the next one at $37.000 adding a third extra event CG to the game!

For now we just want to say, big thanks to all of you! It's been a great campaign so far. Please look forward to the game!

Yours truly,

Fruitbat Factory

Digital Audio Drama Stretch Goal Reached!

Hello good backers!

With 2 hours left on the clock, we're super happy to announce that the $32.500 stretch goal to add a free copy of the digital audio drama to all game tiers has been reached!

The next one is currently only $1500 away at $34.500 and will add a physical copy of the audio drama to the Special Edition of Seven Days! Beyond that, we'll get a third all-new event CG at $37.000!

Thank you for all the amazing support! Let's go all the way!
