First of all, thanks to everyone who joined our Live Stream earlier and watched us start drawing cards for the campaign.  What you witnessed was the insanely talented Alex drawing Parallel Universicorn, Unicorn Tax, and Raccoonicorn while I shamelessly trolled him in the comments.  ψ(* ∇ *)ψ

It was also so fun to see the community making suggestions in real time that will end up on the actual cards in the game!!  Keep the suggestions coming, because we've got plenty of cards to go!

We will be doing our second live drawing on Tuesday at 11AM Central next week. Throughout the campaign, we will be scheduling them at different times to give as many people as possible the opportunity to watch live.  You can, of course, also watch the replays too if you miss them, though!

If you missed the first live drawing, you can watch a replay here for the next 48 (or so) hours:

Please skip to around 14:00, because the first part of the replay is just the internal live stream test to make sure it was running properly. After that, you get to see the real magic.

If you look at the campaign description, you'll see card artwork updated as it comes in like this:

It won't be possible for us to draw every card in a live stream, so make sure to check back periodically to see how things are coming along! 

We've been planning this project for so long, and I can't believe it's actually happening now! I am so grateful to everyone who is actively participating, because this would not be possible without you :)

*screaming continues* (Also, real information about the real live stream we will be doing tomorrow)

$500k in 1 day. 1 day. one day. ONE DAY.

$500K IN ONE DAYYYYYY!!!!!!!!

I don't even know what to do with myself. Well, besides draw Unicorns. And more Unicorns. Because Unicorns.

:D :D :D :D :D

And speaking of drawing Unicorns, our first live drawing will be tomorrow at 3PM Central Time! We will reveal the first few cards that we've selected, and you'll get to watch us draw them in real time :)  If you go to the main campaign page, you'll find a new block that allows you to subscribe to this live stream so you don't miss out on any of the Unicorns. Because Unicorns.

Is this real life?

So...

Fully funded in 24 minutes. Over 1000 comments on the project. I don’t even know what to say, besides thank you for being so good to me and for believing in our team, and we will do everything we possibly can to make this the best project that ever was!

Friday, we will have our first live drawing of the campaign, and we will start working on backercorns and updating the card tracker. So far, in addition to finishing the game, we owe you 35 backercorn drawings that will go in the art book. We have been tracking every single suggestion carefully, and the game will really start taking shape soon!!

A few specific notes for tonight (I know this doesn't cover everything, but it's a start):

1. If you have specific suggestions for cards you’d like to see in the game, make sure to call out a specific card number (ex. Magical Unicorn 12) from the card tracker. If you just have a general idea, we might fit it in, but being specific will really help!

2. For backercorn drawings for our stretch goals, it would be great for our team if you start your comment with “If you draw me as a backercorn, I’d like...”

3. We’ve gotten some questions about the expansions that are shown and whether they are the same as what was in the original campaign.

• NSFW is the same as the original (minus the packaging)
• Rainbow Apocalypse is sparkles and rainbows PLUS apocalypse from the original campaign.
• Dragons is the same as the original with 27 cards added.
• Unicorns of Legend was NOT in the original campaign. 

I hope that clears up confusion.

4. We’ve gotten some requests to include add-ons from the original campaign (such as the original play mats). I will get back to you with an answer on this as soon as possible. There are a lot of balls up in the air with this campaign already, but I’m happy to do a limited run for backers who missed those items the first time around if we can swing it. So no promises yet, but stay tuned.

Now please excuse me while I go curl up in the corner and scream in delight for the next 36 hours.
