Sorry, didn't realize that you might have meant that the cameo/striker stuff will be dealt with once the core game is done and in the testing phase (and probably during the testing phase). I hope that the core game will be well done and enjoyable.
Again, thanks for the recent update. We're doing our best to hang in there till further notice. ^_^
Creator Vincent Fabbri on May 10
Thanks for the updage. By "Additional animations and cameos can be added while that's occurring," did you mean that you've already received some of the backers' cameo/striker ideas? Because of us might not have known this and haven't sent you our sketches or whatever yet. Or are you just saving that for whenever you get the cameo surveys ready? I hope it's the later because again some of us might not have know that we were supposed to give out our information at the time.
But thanks again for the update and everything. Hope it turns out great.
Creator Studio Nasu on May 10
Hey guys! Just a quick note to let you know we really aren't dead and an update is coming! I'm neck deep in animations for a much more advanced build (since we're down 2 animators now) and that's holding up web updates. We're still hard at work, and we have some plans for testing and releasing the main game with core gameplay. Additional animations and cameos can be added while that's occurring, but getting the core game finished in time to test is our priority.
Additionally,I want to thank all of you for your patience as we work to make this game as awesome as possible. It can be frustrating to wait without knowing whats up with any kickstarter project, yet everyone has been amazingly positive and supportive! For that, we are extremely grateful.
The first cameo surveys will follow the pending update. Can't wait to show you what we've got! Thanks again everyone.
Creator Theodore Ward on May 8
H studio nasu I got a question ah when are the beta coming out for the game if you don't mind me asking because with how it is looking right now you probably are shipping the physical at the same time with the official release
Creator Jack H. on May 7
Has the surveys been sent out? I did not receive anything in my email inbox.
Creator Studio Nasu on April 23
Hey! I just changed your password and sent an email with the new password to the same email you use here on kickstarter and at the forums. You can now log in and change it to anything you want. Just let me know if you run into any more trouble! =)
Creator Theodore Ward on April 22
Studio nasu I have a question I am trying to log on the crisis heart brawlers forum and it says I put the wrong pass word and I try to change it but when I do enter my email to change it is says this email does not exist so am I suppose to resign up again
Creator Studio Nasu on April 17
Actually, a very big update is on the way. Right now, we're in the middle of a lot of intensive animation. Sadly, we've lost 2 major animators due to medical reasons, but that will be addressed in the update. Even I'm animating now to keep us from falling too far behind. Unfortunately, that's taking my time away from the regular updates I'd like to give you, but we are active in the backer forums at crisisheartbrawlers.com.
The quick sum up: We're very much underway and full steam ahead. Surveys will be going out any day (I'd hoped to have them out by now, apologies!) for cameos. First will come the extras, followed by assist strikers. We have a lot of exciting news to announce, and some surprises, too. =) I know the waiting is tough, and I appreciate you all hanging in there! =)
--Dave
Creator Matthew Siciliano on April 17
Any news? Or at least something to tell us that the project is still underway?
Creator Vincent Fabbri on March 26
(See the "Questions on Assist/Cameo Appearance" backer forum for more info.)
Creator Vincent Fabbri on March 26
This is from what I've found out so far from the backer forums:
"Anything you need to communicate what you have in mind. As long as it doesn't blow away our time frames/budget and fits within the game constraints, we'll do our best to get it in. An example of what may not work: a 40 frame dance animation, or art that would fill the entire screen (such as a giant mecha)."
Hopefully, we'll find out the rest of the details ASAP.
Creator cards344 on March 25
So will we be getting information about what we can and cant do as Assist Strikers soon?
Creator Matthew Siciliano on February 13
Was getting worried this one wasn't coming. Glad to see things are working out steadily! More than glad actually, can't wait to play!
Creator Studio Nasu on February 9
Time to start thinking about your CHB characters if you have an extra, table, or assist striker going in the game! We'll be sending surveys out in the next month or so!
Creator Studio Nasu on January 23
We'll probably send those out in Feb or March. As soon as game dev is at the point where we're confident with the Assist Striker system and all we need to do are assets and rewards. That way we can use the art efficiently and not waste any time or budget on the cutting room floor. For example, animating a striker and discovering the mechanic completely breaks the game. That means un-used art and lost time.
By the same token, we want to make sure we have time to finish all animations in our schedule, so it shouldn't be much longer. =)
Creator Brett Rogers on January 15
Any idea when backer surveys will be sent out?
Creator Studio Nasu on January 2
Things are coming along. Picking up some new animators and musicians. Lots of writing and design done, and some big announcements coming up. =) We'll be at MAGFest this weekend with a playable build.
Creator cards344 on December 23
So, hows the game coming?
Creator Vincent Fabbri on October 6, 2012
So we don't have to worry about sending in any pictures or anything about the assist strikers until we get the word from you? (At least until you get the basic mechanics and striker functions done?)
Creator Studio Nasu on October 1, 2012
Assist strikers pop in when a brawler activates them. They perform a quick attack or power-up and pop out. We'll work with you to decide the striker's appearance and ability. =) There's plenty of time to think abut it, as we'll be working on core mechanics and the strikers' functions first. Once it's time to really start working on the strikers, you'll get a backer survey sent to you and we'll start working.
Creator cards344 on September 25, 2012
So for those that pledged to be an assist striker, what kind of options do we have for are character? What can we do and to what extent?
Creator Christopher P Forner on September 22, 2012
well i didnt have enough to be a bad guy, but at less i am able to be a supporting character, which is AWESOMELY badass....foo

Will we make 30K?! The suspense!!!!!!
Creator Duelit on September 22, 2012
*High fives Brittany* ^^
Only 7 hours left to go! The livechat sounds like a fun way to get some questions answered and the countdown sounds fun too. Can't wait. :3
Creator Brittany on September 22, 2012
Just wanted to say it's been a blast watching the progress cant wait for the game :) WE DID IT ^~^
Creator Studio Nasu on September 21, 2012
@Kira: Yes, you get the disc as well. =) Sorry I left that out! No way to edit it anymore. =) I'll see what I can do about the additional copies. I'd have to make sure that the price is set so that buying a the game, artbook and CD separately isn't less than the CE so that we don't remove value from those backers' rewards. If it's doable, I'll add them, otherwise I'll find a way for backers to buy extras after the KS ends. They'll be available to the public for purchase in August. Some rewards (like the shirts) are only for backers, and will never be offered again. =)
@Jim: I have the culprit and will be giving you the info soon! =D Thanks again!
Wow! It looks like $30K is within the realm of possibility! Thank you so much everyone! For your support and your wonderful encouragement! We're overwhelmed!
Creator KSweeley on September 21, 2012
Awesome that the current pledged total amount as of 3:40 PM EDT, Friday September 21, 2012 is $26,270. Would be even more awesome if the pledge amount either reaches or exceeds $30,000 by September 22 at 8 PM EDT!!!
Creator Timothy L McMahon on September 21, 2012
Looks like this is another great Kickstarter funded game. Looking forward to playing it in March 2013. I also hope you make it to $30,000
Creator cards344 on September 21, 2012
Let's shoot for $30,000!
Creator Kira on September 21, 2012
Is there any way to add extra items with a hardcopy CE or UE backing, like an extra copy of the artbook? Also, do the Collector's and Ultimate hardcopies include the art/music/video disc from the regular hardcopy?
Creator Vincent Fabbri on September 21, 2012
I think that the person who broke the goal must be the one who got the "You: as an enemy!" ($2500) perk. I remember when it went over $19,000, I posted a comment with that "Kid Icarus" music to set the mood for the final thousand needed for the fundraiser. Then around a minute later, I saw the pledge just went over $20,000 (or $21,000 ?) and was like "WHAAAT?!" Then I found out that someone had gotten that $2500 perk. Again, that's my guest on who broke the goal line. But I could be wrong. Hope it helps. hehe
Creator Jim Vowles on September 20, 2012
Guess I'm going to go foraging in the library to dig for an Awesome Present from one of our guests! Dave, you'll have to let me know whose donation put us over the top....
Creator KSweeley on September 20, 2012
Just pledged $70.00, so happy this game is going to be funded with $24,861 as of 8:20 PM EDT, Thursday, September 20, 2012.
Creator cards344 on September 20, 2012
Two ideas for stretch goals: 1. Make the game 5-7 levels long. 2. A Horde mode were we fight never ending waves of enemies on the Baltimore Conventions Skywalk.
Creator cards344 on September 20, 2012
Sold my 40k Grey Knight Army just in time to get money to be an assist striker. Liked my Chaos Daemon army more anyway..
Creator Miguel Nieves on September 19, 2012
Thanks for making this happen everyone! Check out the developer forum for exclusive screens and animations. Maybe your avatar could be a dancer on stage in the Rave.
Creator Studio Nasu on September 19, 2012
:O
You guys! Wow!!!!
THANK YOU EVERYBODY!!!
Creator Rebecca Roach on September 19, 2012
YAY! Goal exceeded! *does super happy dance*
Creator Jennifer Piro on September 19, 2012
Dear Dave, I want my character to throw fire. And maybe little flaming social media icons. That would make me happy ;)
Love,
Jen
Creator Vincent Fabbri on September 19, 2012
*High fives Duelit* Thanks, Duelit! Glad that the fundraiser is a success. But we probably should keep going if we wanna make the game even better: like having releases for more consoles. Plus, I'm sure more people would like to try the game before its official con release. ^_^
But yeah, next year's Otakon is gonna have a great addition to its lineup.
Creator Mirta Arizola on September 19, 2012
Just backed the project! Congrats on going over the goal~! hope you do some awesome stuff with the remaining money. Surprise us ~!
Creator Duelit on September 19, 2012
CONGRATS ALL :3 *High fives Vincent* This is so exciting! It finally begins!!! I'm sure we'll get more over the next 70 hours, but this is great! We're official! ^_^
Creator Vincent Fabbri on September 19, 2012
Aaah! That was fast! But we actually did it! Congrats everybody! XD
Creator Vincent Fabbri on September 19, 2012
Sorry, got too excited with the typing: wanted to say "I've dug up this nice piece of music..."
But still, keep it up everyone!
