Update #2: Microgoal 1!
Sorry for the quick updates...they'll be a little farther apart in the future!
So, we just hit $20,000 in under twenty-four hours, which is unbelievable. Thank all of you for the incredible support! And, as promised, the first microgoal is released: an alternate scene with Mr. Wheaton, the first of two. Remember, this one hasn't undergone color correction or audio mastering, so it won't look quite as nice, but the humor's 100% intact.
In addition, we wanted to announce some minor change-ups in our reward tiers. First off, we've partnered with TeeLaunch (www.teelaunch.com) to provide the T-shirt, which means we'll be able to provide both male and female-cut shirts! Some mock-ups are below!
The campaign is doing great! Stay tuned for more!

NON-THESPIAN EDITION: This tier contains the special thanks in the credits. However, for those of a less theatrical bent, you can choose this tier to replace the audition opportunity with the Kickstarter-exclusive digital commentary track, accessible in-game! Backers at the $100 level can choose either $60 tier to include, and backers at the $150 and higher levels get both!

We'll put your likeness, as an NPC, into the game at a location of your choosing. In addition, you'll get a tour of Iridium Studios, get to play an early version of the game, have lunch with the crew, and join us for our yearly excursion down to Disneyland in August. You may have to intentionally refuse some of these rewards, or your body might *explode from fun*. (Travel expenses not included.) All previous reward tiers included.

We don't even...all right. If you think we're *that cool*, who are we to argue? In this tier, you'll receive credit as an executive producer on the game. You'll also be invited to attend the official slightly-before-launch party for There Came an Echo, which will be recorded and played in-game during the final credit sequence. You'll get a full-size canvas gallery-wrap print of any piece of art we produce for the game, concept or otherwise. We can't effectively show our appreciation for this kind of pledge, so we will also be providing unlimited hugs. UNLIMITED. All previous reward tiers, of course, included. Travel expenses still aren't, though, those can get weird if you're from Southeast Asia or something.

Can we just buy the shirt directly?

You guys had way too much fun with this.

Oh man, those shirts are awesome...I've loved the logo anyway, and these pics make me wish I had $100 for you all the more...

For those who got the E-mail, and are wondering exactly why we took out the "reward shuffling", it's because Kickstarter doesn't allow the direct reworking of reward tiers, even to directly add things. Our bad!
So, we're gonna look at using an "add-on" structure and possibly adding a new tier altogether to keep things interesting. Stay tuned!
