It's been a year, but we finally have a beta OggBoard product and I want to personally invite all of you to check out our new Kickstarter campaign. For only $20 you can get our specially designed deck of cards with OggBoard Mini. We also have 2 games that already work with it!
I really appreciate all of your support.

The OggBoard is just getting started! We now have a team assembled that is ready and able to finally make this unique concept a reality.

Hey Everyone!
Due to popular demand we are rolling out a forum where supporters can gather together and evolve ideas to make the OggBoard system even better. We have already received many incredible ideas, some of which we will implement in the final product. We will also start a blog focused specifically on the OggBoard called the OggBlog (cute, isn't it?) and the progress it is making towards store shelves. Both of these should be live in the next week or two.
We also want everyone to know that we are discussing possible funding opportunities with investors- with or without a successful Kickstarter project. We have realized that having an entire OggBoard system developed with several games for several platforms will be more successful in the market place than an OggBoard with a single game for just iPhones.
Basically, this whole concept- this entirely new platform- has just begun. We are more serious now than ever before about transforming the future of board gaming as we know it.
If you have pledged, you will be automatically be put on a newsletter list (with the option to unsubscribe, of course) so that you can get all of the progress updates as they happen.
If you have resources or skills that you think would be beneficial to making the OggBoard continue to come to life, feel free to contact us. sam@oggboard.com or twitter @samuelllytle
