Wild Life - Big Crowdfunding Announcement (Patreon)

Patreon Friends,

With many exciting developments on the horizon, I wanted to reach out to you--our loyal Patreon community—to make sure you're the first to know what’s next for Wild Life as we continue toward our goals of continued development and release to the public.

Our Patreon community has been the backbone of Wild Life, and you’ve been the ones backing us from the start and believing in this wild and sexy mission. THANK YOU!

If you’ve been following the project for some time or if you know anything about game development, you may be aware of the many costs and extensive amount of blood, sweat, and tears that go into developing a project like this. And as we continue to develop with an eye on a release date to mainstream audiences, we want to make sure we release a top-notch gaming experience. We want to be sure to do right by you, too, by giving you a product you can be proud of knowing that you played a pivotal role in creating.

With this in mind, we're looking to scale up our development efforts to more quickly bring Wild Life to life (pun intended) because you deserve it! And we think the world deserves to discover it too. Fueled by these goals, we wanted to announce to you first that we will be introducing new audiences to Wild Life via Kickstarter while simultaneously retaining and strengthening our presence here on Patreon.

We plan to introduce Wild Life on Kickstarter in October and run the campaign through November in order to raise additional funds and create public awareness and interest in the project. Patreon will remain our focal point for developing funding and sharing announcements since you are a vital part of Kerpal and this project.

During and after the Kickstarter campaign, Patreon will remain our main development platform, where we will continue to explore ideas and deliver updates to you in the usual bi-monthly release schedule. After Wild Life is fully launched we will continue our work on additional content packages like add-ons, DLCs, and more.

We are also excited to announce an upcoming release we know you'll love. The new Wild Life Patreon build will be available to our Member-tier supporters on or around October 8th and around 2 weeks later the $10 version goes live as usual. This will be the final demo build with which we’ll launch the Kickstarter campaign and will be available on Steam. The Steam version of the Demo will be uncensored and free for everyone, but will not include the Sandbox Mode. Our next release then follows in December, adhering to our regular release schedule.

As we always want to hear what our community has to say, we invite you to join us for a live stream Q&A on Picarto.

When? October 3rd.
21:00 Berlin Time (UTC+2)
12:00 Los Angeles, CA Time (UTC-7)
19:00 UTC

Chris and I will talk more about the Kickstarter campaign and how it will play a role in building on the work the Patreon community has already done.

If you can't make it to the stream, we will record it and of course continue to keep you updated as these happenings unfold.

Thank you again for your unwavering belief and investments in this vision. We can't wait to bring Wild Life to life, so more people can experience this revolutionary gaming experience, which you’ve helped to create.

With much gratitude,

- Steve and the whole Wild Life Team
