We’re  excited to share the Charms Online version* at CharmsGame.com available to all for free!* 


Huge thanks to Cosmic Fisherman (twitter) @johnmcornyn for helping us to revamp the Charms website and the amazing digital addition of Charms.


With so many virtual interactions these days, we hope playing Charms Online is an enjoyable activity that helps you connect with family, friends, neighbors, students, groups, or coworkers. 


You can play it on your own, or on video conference calls (by sharing your screen) to spark insightful dialogues or writing activities. Then, download and share charms rolls via text, social media, or email. 


*Note: Charms Online works best on ipads or larger screens and monitors from a laptop or desktop computer on updated browsers. Please help us spread the word to others that it’s here, and we’d really appreciate any thoughts or feedback you share with us about your experiences with Charms Online.

Survey and Shipping and Add-ons Begin
over 3 years ago – Tue, Oct 27, 2020 at 04:56:18 PM

Hello Backers!

We have started the BACKERKIT survey process. Some of you will get a survey to complete right away, others over the next few days. If you do not see it immediately, no worries. You will get it within the week.


From the BACKERKIT you can ENTER your address, add-on any items, PAY FOR SHIPPING, and answer some survey questions. This is all vital for receiving your rewards. 


Best,

Aaron

Backerkit Surveys and Next Steps
over 3 years ago – Fri, Oct 23, 2020 at 03:26:22 PM

Hello Everyone!

We are setting up the surveys which will arrive in a day or two from BACKERKIT. If you have any questions about them, please do not hesitate to email me.


If you need to change your survey responses, purchase add-on items, or update your shipping information, you can click the link in your survey email again or request your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page. (This page will only start working after we send the surveys out.)


If you prefer, you can contact me directly and give me your information, but answering your survey help us get your rewards out to you faster. BackerKit helps us save lots of time by streamlining the survey process, automating data organization, and providing us with pledge management software to make it easy to process your pledge reward shipments.


If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey link is sent to the email address you use for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you prefer to use, please contact me.


Best,

Aaron

Good News and Next Steps
over 3 years ago – Sat, Oct 10, 2020 at 10:37:36 PM

We did it!

Thank you all for supporting the project! Not only did we fund the creation of the final digital product, we also reached the $2000 goal to make a MANUFACTURER PRINTED edition! A special thanks to all our sponsors and partners and to Studio 9 Inc for subsidizing a large portion of the funding which effectively made our goals smaller.


What happens next?

1. Over the next 2 weeks your pledges will be collected by KICKSTARTER. If there are any problems in that process, they will contact you to resolve it.

2. After that we will invite everyone to BACKERKIT to complete their surveys and collect any shipping funds needed to fulfill your pledge (for delivery of physical games). 

3. Also, within BACKERKIT, you will be able to upgrade to a MANUFACTURER PRINTED edition of CHARMS: QUESTS FOR ANTIRACISM, keep your PDF digital edition, or get both.

4. After that stage, we will prepare the final art, final design, shipping plans, printing, and editing. Look to future posts for any updates in these stages.


Thank you all for helping us give birth to this amazing tool. We look forward to your CHARMS stories!
