Dear Supporters,

the last 3 days of our crowdfunding campaign have begun. It was an interesting time so far and we learned a lot how to make public relations and propose a good idea better. As we decided to run the whole thing all by ourselfs we also learned which things work and which do not work to create attention.

Good to have you on board now. As we still hope some more might enter the club, we are excited to develop things further with an exclusive crowd of people that do care about the emergence of thisc concept and the latest changes. As you might have red we plan to have weekly newsletters about what’s going on. And we have made a lot changes over the time of funding already. I was happy when we finally got back to work after the first third of the campaign to finish the next planet and it’s mission in time…

To visualize what a big bang the next episode and the – 4 times bigger than the last – planet will be I just made an appropriately large graphic. Please have a look, share it on your accounts or websites as you wish and why not make some noice again for the last 70 hours of our campaign?!

Any Opinions about this so far? Feel free to leave us some coment…

Here is some graphics stuff that we have been working on lately.

The blueish building in the middle-left is a new city building called “Research District”. It will reduce the energy consumption of nearby buildings. Continue reading →

This is update #2 for our crowdfunding on IndieGoGo:

Over 20% funded! Thanks to all of our early backers!

Maybe you already asked yourself how we intend to finish Imagine Earth with only 10.000$ ? Good question. Here comes the answer:

In addition to the crowdfunding we will receive a funding, paying up to 50% of the development cost. This means that every dollar we receive from you will be doubled in the end!

The funding is given us by Nordmedia, the Cultural Media Fund of Lower-Saxony and Bremen. They fund promising and cultural valuable media projects without influencing the development and creative process (like many publishers do).

First of all nice to havesome guys on board at our indiegogo campaign. After having a calm and chilled start with our campaign yesterday, there are a few reactions coming up already. In the end it will be all about press coverage I guess.  Let’s see what a general announcement of the campaign can do..
Maybe we can encourage you to make some noise by sharing and liking it on the usual platforms? Thanks a lot for your interest in this exceptional game production anyways.
