Art Finalization
over 3 years ago – Fri, Jul 16, 2021 at 01:45:43 AM

Hey Bartenders!

      We have been hard at work since the last day of our campaign. We are happy to announce that ALL of the art for the game has been finalized, the game rules have been re-tested to ensure the gameplay is balanced, and every detail has been scrutinized and spellchecked. We are about to send the final art off to the printer and we'll keep you up to date as it moves through the production phase.

      We want to send a special shout-out to our 3 Judge-tier backers. Their art was super fun to create and we are proud to have them as a part of Bar Fight.  The new judges are Ben Berry, Samatha Maxwell, and Jeffery Lundquist. Thank you all so much for your support of Bar Fight.  You'll be seeing some of the new art on our social channels soon and will send out the print and play (to those backers who purchased the add-on) as soon as it is ready. 

Cheers!

Adam

Survey Time!
over 3 years ago – Thu, Jun 03, 2021 at 05:16:29 PM

Hey Bartenders!

We've been finalizing everything on our end, and we're ready to send out surveys! You'll be getting an email in the next few days from us through our pledge manager, BackerKit, with a link to our survey. There, you'll put in your shipping info, and have the chance to add things to your pledge like additional copies of Bar Fight, the Print and Play version, or our awesome sticker pack!


Also, we've got a new bar to show off! Here's The White Rabbit, a bar that offers adventure and intrigue for those who are willing to venture off the beaten path.

That's all for now!

Cheers,

Gifford and Adam

We Did It!!
over 3 years ago – Thu, May 13, 2021 at 04:39:14 PM

Hey Bartenders!

What a stunning conclusion to the campaign! We're absolutely floored by the support and enthusiasm you've shown, and are so excited that you're joining us on this wild ride. We hit $19k, and 550 Backers! Thank you, thank you, thank you.


Stretch Goal Unlocked!

With less than an hour left in the campaign, we unlocked our $19,000 funding goal of larger bar cards! The bar cards will be 140mm x 120mm (twice the size of a tarot card). That's lots more room to show off the artwork, and it'll make the whole card much easier to read.


What's Next?

Here's a sketch of our estimated production timeline - we'll be putting the final touches on Bar Fight's artwork as we send out surveys to y'all to get your shipping info and complete orders, including any extra copies and add-ons. You should get the survey from BackerKit within a few weeks, and we'll post another update when they go out. After that, we'll send out updates roughly every month to keep you in the loop about the production process and show you what's going on with Bar Fight!

Shipping Update

We're thrilled to announce we've partnered with Funagain Logistics to handle our fulfillment, and we've got new shipping estimates.

For the Bartender Tier, it's $13 for USA backers, and $18 for all International backers.

For the Connoisseur Tier, it's $16 for USA backers, and $25 for all International backers.


Again,thank you. There's going to be champagne popping in Chicago and New York tonight.

Stretch and Social Goal Combo!!
over 3 years ago – Sun, May 02, 2021 at 08:46:35 PM

Hey Barflies-

We hit our first stretch goal, and unlocked our final bar! Heck yeah!


The final contestant is The White Rabbit, an underground techno bar. If strobe lights and thumping bass are your jam, we've got the bar for you! We're thrilled to have the full set of bars in the game - they each have a spot in our hearts, and we know you'll dig them all.


The next and last Social Goal is something we're really excited to announce - if we hit 1600 Social Points, we'll make a PDF Recipe Book of all the in-game drinks. Classic Cocktails, each Bar's Signature Cocktail, Judge's Preferences, you name it - every backer will get a PDF sent to them full of tasty drinks and original artwork!


We've raised enough to add a Linen Finish to all the cards in the game! The next goal gets unlocked if the campaign hits $19,000, at which point we'll be able to get larger Bar Cards printed. That'll really let Adam's artwork shine on a whole new level, and heighten the experience overall. Let's get it done!


Finally, thanks to everyone who's been voting in our Cocktail Bracket on Instagram and Facebook. The final match is today, and you've still got time to vote for either an Old Fashioned or a Margarita! Which drink is going to take home the grand prize?


Cheers!

Hey Bartenders!

We're crushing it! Thanks so much for the continued support - 287 Backers, $11,171 raised, and you've unlocked another bar! The newest competitor at Bar Fight is The Voodoo Lounge, the hottest spot in town to hear the coolest jazz.


This week, we're hosting the Bartender's Choice Bracket on Facebook and Instagram - check it out and vote for your favorite cocktails! May the best drink win!


We're super close to unlocking our first stretch goal, too! Only a little more to go before we can add a linen finish to all the cards in the game! Tell your friends, tell your enemies, and we'll be there in no time!


Cheers,

Adam and Gifford
