Umbra - Kickstarter Successful

Congratulations to SolarFall Games!

Update #17 on the Kickstarter page:

Thank you! 

It has been an amazing ride for all of us at SolarFall Games, and we couldn't have reached this achievement without all of your support.

Our Kickstarter was an intense and very rewarding experience. We started with a pretty excited but anxious state of mind and quickly rejoiced when we saw how many backers were supporting our game! Kickstarter management is a very hard and intense activity, but all the backers comment and their keen interest in what we wanted to offer inspired us to keep going strong! The community also provided us with some valuable feedback and interesting ideas, and once again, we're thankful for that! 

Press coverage has also been great during the whole campaign, and we also want to thank all the Youtubers and Twitchers - Gronkh, Natsuma_Z, AbilityDrain, Irregular Dave and more - that featured our game on their channels, as well as all the media outlets that helped us to spread the word about Umbra !

Umbra has ended at over 180% funded, thanks to 11k backers, which is definitely higher than our initial goal! Umbra has now become the most funded French game project on Kickstarter, and we can’t thank you enough for this! Umbra will now be a bigger and better game thanks to all of your help.

So, what’s next?

In the followings months, we'll open the forum, and all backers at their respective tiers will get access to the forum, as well as their precious forum badges!

We will also make sure we get all the prototype access ready for backers at the Wizard or higher tier in the following two months so that you can get a glimpse of what Umbra is all about !

For a few more days, people who didn’t get a chance to pledge at the Kickstarter will be able to purchase reward packs on our website, featuring the exclusive content for the Kickstarter. But once that time is up, we will switch to a more classical pre-order shop, and all the Kickstarter exclusive rewards will be gone! So if you know someone who missed the Kickstarter for Umbra, or who didn't have access to a credit card, be sure to share with them the link to our website!

And after that… well, we will restart working on the actual game!

We plan to release the Technical Alpha on Steam Early Access (around November-December 2015). We will also restart to work on our Devblog, to show you some of the cool tech we use in the game!
