The End of our Kickstarter

Hey everyone! We have an unfortunate announcement. In case you didn’t already know, Band Camp Boyfriend’s Kickstarter failed. We only managed to achieve 45% of our goal in the end.

We would like to thank everyone who pledged and supported us this far. We can’t possibly put into words how much we appreciate you and how exciting it was seeing the backer number climb. When I think of our fans sharing our game and supporting us in every way that they could, my heart breaks. I’m sorry we couldn’t get there for you guys and I hope you aren’t too disappointed.

However, we still see the positive in our situation. You’re never guaranteed to succeed on your first try, but you’re guaranteed to grow. This is our first time doing this and the entire experience has been a major learning process. We also picked up a greater number of followers along the way. The number of demo downloads has climbed drastically over the past few weeks. Hopefully, it will continue over time and more and more people will continue to share it.

So what’s next for Band Camp Boyfriend?

I imagine you’re all wondering if that means the game is cancelled. The answer is…absolutely not. We are not the type to give up so easily. We love this game and its characters and we’ve put far too much into it to abandon it now. It has to be made.

Our game plan at this time is to regroup. We’re going to continue working on the game with what we have and trying to get the word out. We hope to release a more polished version of the demo as well within the next few months. If we feel we’re in a good place, we’d like to attempt a second Kickstarter in 2019. Hopefully, we’ll have more luck then. For now, keep spreading the word! This isn’t over yet!

As always, thank you so much for all of your support! <3
