The title of this post pretty much says it all: The beta version logins of Spirit Lake: The Game have been sent out to everyone who pledged $15 or more. 

If you did not receive your login and password, please let us know. You can either message us here or at feedback@7generationgames.com -- and we'll make sure you get one ASAP. 

Please keep in mind this is a beta (not final) version of the game. We are constantly working on improving our product, including compatibility with multiple browsers. (We have tested the game on Firefox for Mac and Windows. We highly recommend you use Firefox.) 

We would love to get any feedback you might have on improving Spirit Lake: The Game. Please email us at feedback@7generationgames.com. 

Let us know of any problems you might encounter when playing the game, so that we can get them fixed. (We definitely want to know of any issues you might run into so we can resolve them, but you can also feel free to drop us a line if you absolutely love the game. It would be great to hear positive feedback as well.) 

If you backed us at $35 or more, you will get another login when we've completed the additional work on the game at the end of the summer. 

If you backed us at $50 or more, we will be mailing out the photos in late April. Posters for our backers at $100 or more should be going at toward the end of the month as well. 

Please be on the look out for a survey from Kickstarter that will allow you to input your address so we know where to send your stuff. Please allow up to a week for domestic and up to two weeks for international delivery. 

We'll keep posting information here - especially anything related to our Kickstarter campaign - but you can also get more frequent updates on our blog or follow us on Twitter.

Hope you enjoy testing out our game.

Thanks again!

We're completing some updates to our beta version of Spirit Lake: The Game and will be getting out another round of rewards in the next week. The beta logins will be sent  to the email you provided Kickstarter - which Kickstarter has provided to us.

We'll post another update after we've sent out the beta logins, but keep an eye out. 

Those who backed us at the $5 level should have already gotten their Twitter thanks from our @7GenGames account! If you haven't, shoot us a message with your handle so we can give your shout out. 

Those who backed us at the $10 level, will find your names on our company website. The names listed are those provided to Kickstarter as your "Backer Name." If you used an alias or didn't give a full name and want us to use your proper name, just let us know. We'll make the change. 

As we've had some questions about when rewards will be received, here just a quick timeline as far as the delivery dates.*

April 2013: A limited edition, exclusive to 7 Generation Games “Thank You for Supporting Spirit Lake: The Game” photo featuring and signed by UFC champion Ronda Rousey. ($50 backers)

April 2013: Full-size Spirit Lake: The Game poster. ($100 backers.)

September 2013: A personalized "Thank You" from the class your backing supports. ($250 backers)

September 2013: A personalized "Thank You" from each class and the principal of the school your backing supports. ($1,000 backers) 

September 2013: Become a character in the game. Our animators will create an avatar using your name and likeness to be inserted as a character within the game. [This offer is transferable.] ($2,500 backers)

*Kickstarter recommends asking for mailing addresses right before we ship as opposed to early in the process to avoid returns/forwarding issues in case people move between the months when the project is funded and the rewards are distributed. Keep an eye out for a note from us (via Kickstarter) asking for shipping information in early to mid-April. 

Wanted to get out a thank you to everyone who helped us get our project funded! We could not have done it without your support. 

Now, it's time for us to get to work. Well, we've continued working on the project throughout our Kickstarter campaign, so really we'll just keep working on it. 

From dealing with Kickstarter, it seems like they'll get us all of your information in the next week or two. We'll start getting out the early rewards once we get that info and will make sure we hit our deadlines for each of the later rewards.

Also, if you haven't sent us your Twitter handle and backed at least at the $5 level, please shoot us a message with your handle so we can give you a social media thank you! 

Again, many, MANY thanks!
