Manufacturing/Convention update

Update #45 · Sep 27, 2012 · 10 comments

Hi everyone, 

Sorry for the delay in updates; we have been waiting patiently for new samples to arrive. Just this week, we received the final production samples of our wooden meeples and custom dice.  In the next few weeks we expect the delivery of the production samples for our dice bags and the rest of our miniatures.

 

All of the artwork has been approved we are just waiting on getting the miniatures finished before full production can start.  Waiting is tough but the quality of the end product will be worth it!

 We will also be at two conventions at the same time!

Ricky and our backer Lora will be at Con on the Cob Oct 11-14th in Hudson Ohio. http://www.cononthecob.com/ 

Jeff, Theresa, Julie, and Nick will be at Rock and Shock Oct 12-14th in Worcester MA http://rockandshock.com/


We hope to meet some more backers  at the conventions so come check us out!

Our first Pax Prime!

Update #44 · Sep 6, 2012 · 6 comments
Pax Prime was a success! It is a big thing for us to meet our backers, so thank you to those that came by.  

We also received more goodies in the mail! These are our sample zombies; they are made out of the same material which will be used in our game! The colors may vary in the actual game, but hey we are one step closer to our final project! We are impatiently waiting for our dice to come; they should be here next week. We want to keep you in the loop, so we will be sending an update once we receive them as well! Enjoy the pictures of Pax Prime and the miniatures.

Below you will  see Reid and Kellsie. They are both in the main game! We will send better pictures of our zombies when we get a chance!

Pax Prime

Update #43 · Aug 29, 2012 · 6 comments

Ricky is leaving soon for Pax Prime. While you're there, you should stop by our booth to play the game or to check out some of the prototypes from our manufacturer! Ricky, DT, Ericka, one of our backers, and a few others will be available to run games and show you the goodies that we got! They will be on level 6 at  the Game Salute booth # 6108. They are hoping to meet some more backers!

Speaking of prototypes, we received some more when we came back from Gen Con. Below you can see pictures of us inspecting the layout of our tiles and cards. You can also see a glimpse of what the Fatty/exploding zombie looks like! Squeal! Ummmm... we mean yeah!

We said there may be a surprise... well, surprise!

Update #42 · Aug 13, 2012 · 8 comments

On the eve of GenCon we are wide awake and running around like elves hopped up on Christmas cookies. You see a box arrived at GPI. Jeff left work and may have ignored several major driving laws to get there and back for the rest of us waiting. 

When he arrived back at the bat cave we huddled in awe. Inside the box was something special, something magical-
OK it was more boxes. But THOSE boxes were the prototypes of our game!

Anyone going to GenCon you will get to play with the cards and tiles samples sent to us by our manufacturers! There is maniacal giggling and calling things "Preshussssssssssssss." It's not pretty, but what is in the world of zombies? We also have our first zombie miniature samples. Sadly they are not the final product so we can't play with them, but you can see what they will look like! See you soon Indiana!

Your name in our Rule Book and GenCon

Update #41 · Aug 8, 2012 · 8 comments

The new is-

We are all excited for GenCon. Julie and Ricky will be starting their road trip on Tuesday! Jeff, Theresa, and Todd will be flying out shortly after that. We are psyched (and a little smug) that all our events are sold out and we can’t wait to meet more of you in person! There is a small chance we might have a show and tell. We wont tell you in case it doesn't happen, but let's just say, it's a big deal. 

With out you our backers Zpocalypse would not have been possible. As a tribute to your help we have listed your names (provided in the survey) in the rule book. We wanted to give you one last chance to ensure you name was correctly listed PDF LINK, for those who supported at the $55 level and above. Anyone who is missing please contact: greenbriergames@gmail.com


Now we will leave you with a picture from Ricky of Zmaster:
