commented on a projectHi David--There was a recent newsletter, but it had some sending issues and not everyone received it. We're working on that, and thanks everyone for your patience! We'll be doing a resend to the people who let us know they did not receive an April newsletter.

Posted project update #14Happy New Year, 2012 Is Going to Rock!
Post CommentWe’ve said it many times before, but it always bears saying again: thank you. Thank you for the last nine years, thank you for 2011, thank you for The Silver Lining, and now thank you for Cognition. This has truly been a banner year for Phoenix Online! Your generosity, your support, your belief, it is constantly blowing us away and making us smile. A Kickstarter total of $34,247! Hot damn!
Speaking of, sometime in January, we’ll do another mini-fundraising campaign for about a week through PayPal. We had a lot of fans saying they’d like to donate to the Kickstarter but for various reasons were unable to use Amazon Payments. Stay tuned for more information on this in the new year; and yes, the same list of rewards as we had for Kickstarter will be available for anyone donating through PayPal!
But really, the best part of all this? 2012 is going to be even better! Adventure-treff has ranked Cognition among their most-anticipated adventure titles for 2012, and Jane Jensen (I still think OMG! every time I realize we’re working with her!) has four titles on their Best 100 Adventure Games list! (#32: Gabriel Knight 3, #16: Gabriel Knight 1, #13: King’s Quest VI, and #3: Gabriel Knight 2)
We’re more excited every day as we’re working on Cognition, which is shaping up wonderfully, and even more excited about launching our company. More surveys and information on those exclusive rewards will be coming soon! As a treat for now, below you’ll see a new screenshot from the game, a truly beautiful background worked on by Romano Molenaar and Elisa Pavinato. I wonder who’s grave(s) Erica will be visiting? Or is it her own? You’ll find out eventually!
Plus, who can forget the upcoming exciting conclusion to The Silver Lining! Episode 5 will be full of some great stuff, and it’ll be a little bittersweet to say goodbye to the game we’ve spent a decade working on. But a great accomplishment for all of us here at Phoenix at the same time.
So Happy New Year to all of you, and here’s to a great 2012 to come!

Posted project update #13WE DID IT!!!!
The Kickstarter, and we did it! Boy did we ever! Not only did we reach the $25K we set out for, we got all the way up to $34,247! 136% of our goal!
Thank you thank you THANK YOU!! We have been overwhelmed by your support and donations, and we are so very grateful. When Cognition comes out and you sit down to play it, do so knowing that YOU helped make it happen!
More information will be coming soon for the backers, as well as surveys to get the information we need to get your rewards to you and so forth. So keep an eye out for those as we move forward and please get the information back to us soon--if we don't get that information from you, we may not be able to get you the rewards you signed up for. And no one wants that!
And once again, because it can't be said enough: THANK YOU!!!

We've got just 8 hours to go in our Kickstarter, and we're up to $33,479 right now! Can you believe it?!
This has been an amazing run of fundraising, and right now we're lined up to be #8 on the Top Ten Most Funded Video Games on Kickstarter and the most-funded project ending today! Amazing!
Thank you for everything, and we can't wait to see how the next 9 hours go!
