Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on July 8, 2011.

Tinkatolli launches an App! The TinkaMaker!

Update #8 · Jan 12, 2013 · comment

Hello Kickstarters!

Today we launched the TinkaMaker on the App Store!

The TinkaMaker was where the whole thing started for Tinkatolli - and we are very pleased to release this very versatile and super customizable creature creator - right where kids are these days: using your iPod Touch, iPhones and iPads;)

The TinkaMaker has a few things the original didn't:

Take pictures of your Tinka in the real world!

Use gestures to tweak each feature!

Clothing! Finally... Tinkas can get dressed:)

AND it's completely mobile. Take it anywhere!

Please help us get our app some attention - Download it for free, Rate it in the App Store and generally tell EVERYONE you know about this funky little toy!=)

Download the App!

All the best,

Luke, Kevin and Konrad

Thank You for Kicking In

We are very proud to say we have, thanks to you, reached our goal!

You have our undying appreciation!  We can't thank all our incredible backers, family, friends and fans enough for all the support, well-wishes and fantastic feedback we have received!  

Kickstarter has been an incredibly energizing experience for us. What has really thrilled us about crowd-funding is the way each new backer has become a cheerleader for Tinkatolli, a supporter in the true sense of the word. It is very cool that so many of our backers realize that they are playing a part in building this fantastic universe. That's very much what the spirit of Tinkatolli is all about.  

Kickstarter has really helped spread the word about our very new game and very new concept. One of the best things has been watching all the Tinkas (and quite a few parents), who just joined us, discovering Tinkatolli by actually playing the game.  

We are really looking forward to sending out your rewards - please be patient, administration and shipping might take some time.

Until then, we'll be hanging out with you on Tinkatolli!

Welcome!

And... Thank You!

Luke, Kevin and Pennie

Hope Springs Eternal!

Update #5 · Jul 5, 2011 · 2 comments

We are down to the last hours of our campaign, (68 as of this moment), and although it looks like the odds are against us, we haven't given up hope on Kickstarter.

There has been a lot of activity these past few days, and we're really excited to see that word of Tinkatolli has begun to spread beyond friends, family, and our current beta-testers. Its kind of a shame that we don't have a few more weeks on Kickstarter to see if this snowball could really begin to roll.  But this is the internet, where many a snowball has rolled in less than 68 hours, so our fingers are crossed.  

To all of our supporters who have pledged to help us make this super creative universe, THANK YOU!!  If you know of anyone who you think might be interested in Tinkatolli, please hurry up and tell them about our project (we recommend adjectives like fantastic, amazing and awesome :-)) and send them a link to our Kickstarter page. To play with that snowball metaphor, sometimes even a whisper can trigger an avalanche.

And finally, a lot of the kids have asked what will happen to Tinkatolli if we don't reach our goal.  What we hope comes across in our video is how passionate we are about this. Kickstarter ends in a few days, but Tinkatolli is just getting started. Without the funds from Kickstarter, it will be difficult for us, and we will struggle, but as they say - where there is a will, there is a way. We have a mountain of will!

See you on Tinkatolli!

Kevin, Luke and Pennie

We're nearing the home stretch, so to speak, and need to keep the momentum going in order to reach our goal in time. 

Please tell just 2 friends (more if you like) about Tinkatolli, our Kickstarter project, and how you can get pledge and get to play the game right away

If you twitter - tweet about us! Use the tweet button below our video. If you Facebook - Like us - also below the video. 

Every little bit helps!
