We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on August 2, 2012.

Coming to a Close. Let's Get Organized

Update #6 · Jul 28, 2012 · comment

There are about 4 days left in the campaign, so we need to get organized.  If you have pledged, please make sure you have enough in your bank account to cover it. It's unlikely, but it would be devastating if we failed our goal because some closing transactions didn't go through. If you haven't pledged yet, but intend to, now is the time. This is the end of the campaign. 

Thanks to everybody that has pledged.  We will be making a page and a post on our website to publicly thank any backers that wanted to be named, as well as a page for merchandise. That way you can see exactly what we have for you.

We go into the studio this week.  When we are done with our recording, we will get to work on delivering rewards.  I believe all of our estimated delivery dates are accurate, so please bear with us.

Thanks again!
-Swingset Showdown
