GOAL MET ALREADY??? DOUSHIO
Oh wow haha. I didn't think there would be such a strong reception for this. It's only the first day and we've already met our goal 4 times over. Thanks for the support everyone, and know that all the money will be going to make the artbook better. While we can't promise anything fancy like a hardcover, we'll try and make it the best we can!
Anyway, to address a few questions and concerns: If you are paying for international shipping, you pledge whatever your pledge tier is plus the shipping expense ($22 for the $20 tier reward etc.) Secondly, here is a nifty image showing what kinds of pins they are:

Finally, we are going to open up the $30 tier again sometime in the future. Unfortunately due to the amount of mailing around we'll be doing to get it signed by as many people as possible, we won't be opening it up again after it sells out. We'll let everyone know when the tier is opened up again sometime in the future. If you miss out on that as well, don't fret! You'll still be able to get a few of the dev's signatures at Anime Expo if you go.
Thanks again for the support everyone, and stay tuned for future updates!

Anyone know where the devs are going to sign on the artbook? Don't really want them signing all over the front cover :/
Creator Brian Noell on March 13, 2012
I understand that, and it is in like New York or New Jersey based on all the tracking I've done. I just wanted to make sure because they might not send it via USPS which I'm pretty sure is the only way you can get it over here. So I just want to see what raemz is planning on doing when it comes to shipping. Might just have to shoot him a message myself, although he's probably pretty busy (unless raemz is a "she" :/ ).
Creator Lewis Marvich on March 13, 2012
Shipping to an APO or FPO is not normally considered "international ". The mail goes from the US Postal Service in New York (or whatever city services those military units) and is handed over to the military postal system to complete the delivery. It is not sent through a foreign country's mail system. There are no additional charges involved. Of course my info is from the late 80's/ early 90's. It may have changed since then.
Creator Brian Noell on March 12, 2012
Does using a APO address count as international shipping? I'd like to know so I can set the pledge right.
Creator David Fuzie on March 12, 2012
If we increase our pledge, do we automatically get into the higher tier when it reopens ($30 one I'm referring to)?
Creator Stefon Witkowski on March 12, 2012

Oh raemz, you're so moe.
Creator Sam B on March 12, 2012
Seconding Xian's suggestions of hard copies of the game and/or OST as a reward tier, I would up my pledge a ton in a heartbeat if those were offered
Creator Andrew Shiel Dods on March 12, 2012
I would also like it to be hardbacked as well since it gives it a nice professional feel to it.
Creator David Spry on March 12, 2012
Just increased my pledge to $35.00 in preparation for the tier to reopen. I would really like to get an autographed copy so hopefully I can make the change in time and grab one, but if not, whatever, I'll just consider the extra $15 my payment for the game. I also think hardcover would be awesome if it's possible and wouldn't mind paying a little more for it if needed.
Creator Xian on March 12, 2012
Also, hard copies of the game or the OST would be a great reward =D
Creator Nicholas Christian Langkjær Ipsen on March 12, 2012
I would like it to be hardcover as well. I don't mind having to pay a bit more.
Creator Kaname on March 12, 2012
An hardcover will be awesome in my opinion :)
Try to make it done if possible.
Creator Encrypted12345 on March 12, 2012
Nah, they'll be too many names at this rate. There are way too many people here, and it's only the first day. It'll be at least a thousand by the end if not more.
... Hardcover, please.
Creator Emilie Geary on March 12, 2012
How about a $25 tier that gets your name on the special thanks page? I want my name in it, but I understand the difficulties of getting copies signed.
Creator Ken Pradel on March 11, 2012
I would also dig a hardcover copy. Any chance of including a CD of the game with the art book for those of us out there who are still attached to physical media?
Creator Xian on March 11, 2012
Seconding the idea of hardcover copies!
And thanks for reopening the 30$ rewards.
Creator raemz on March 11, 2012
Joshua Rivera:
We haven't looked into it yet, but if there's adequate demand for it and if its feasible, we'll consider the possibility of adding it as a tier in the rewards section.
Creator raemz on March 11, 2012
David Fuzie836:
Unfortunately, due to the mere pressure of getting the artbook done, we could only allow one, as any more would've driven the artists mad.
Creator AbleKirby on March 11, 2012
Clearly, the $50 tier should have been something like $150
Creator Joshua Rivera on March 11, 2012
Just for curiosity's sake, how much money do you think you would need for hardcover copies?
Creator David Fuzie on March 11, 2012
Wondering if the $50 tier will ever open up again. Would not mind donating more to get that special spot. :P
Creator raemz on March 11, 2012
Sam B:
We'll post an update with an exact time and date of when we'll make the tier available again sometime in the future. Since we'll be busy for the next week or so that time will be a fair bit away.
Creator Sam B on March 11, 2012
If possible, could we get advance notice (preferably with a time) for when the $30 opens up again? Given how quickly the initial 10 went, some people could be really disappointed by simply being asleep in a different timezone when it goes live.
