Thank You! You've Blown This Campaign Out of the Water!

Pat yourselves on the back, you've helped to bring RPG Essentials Acrylic Tokens to game tables throughout the TTRPG community! Thank you to each and every one of our, 1,802 backer family! I clearly underestimated how passionate you would be about this product. I'm honored and amazed.
What's next?
I will continue to update you here on the progress of this project, ideally, once a month.
Kickstarter processes pledges
Kickstarter is going to begin to process payments for this campaign and the process can take anywhere from 2-3 weeks. When we get confirmation from them that this step is complete, we’ll send out BackerKit surveys!
BackerKit surveys
Surveys will then be sent out to collect your shipping details along with your pledge and add-ons. You'll be able to upgrade your pledge or add additional add-ons with the survey as well! Surveys will be open until theproject moves into production, but to guarantee your order we suggest filling out the survey as soon as possible.
Digital Rewards
We will be sending you the digital files through BackerKit as rewards are completed.
I'm going to immediately begin going through all 900+ (counting all 3 variants) tokens to ensure they are formatted correctly for VTTs. That will take some time, but I want to get these in your hands as soon as possible! I believe I should be able to deliver this first set of digital rewards to you in March.
Those that still need to be drawn will be made available when they are done. I believe that will be in May. I'll keep you posted.
Schedule
The schedule should look something like this:
End of February: Surveys go out.
March: The first batch of digital rewards go out and I continue drawing the remaining tokens.
April-May: I continue drawing tokens.
June: Orders are locked.
July-August: Manufacturing.
September-October: Tokens take a long boat ride.
November: Fulfillment.
Of course, the production of game products is still somewhat unpredictable. If this schedule changes, I will do my best to communicate all I can when I can.
Did you or a friend miss out on backing the campaign? It’s not too late!
We will be accepting late pledges for both the physical and digital tokens, plus the add-ons! Everything that's been unlocked will be available for preorder.
Again, thank you all for your support! I'm pleased to extend an extra-special thank you to all you who shared, liked, and retweeted our project. Thank you to my wife and kids who continue to support my art and business unconditionally!
Your friend and fellow adventurer,
Darryl T. Jones
Digital PNGs coming soon! 4 hours left!

With only a few hours left, I've made a decision - I will release the digital PNGs to digital backers in March!
As you've no doubt seen on the Kickstarter page, much of the art was already done! I've worked out the schedule so that I can release those tokens early! I still need to go through all 900+ (counting all 3 variants) to ensure they are formatted correctly for VTTs. That will take some time, but I want to get these in your hands as soon as possible!
Those that still need to be drawn will be made available when they are done, bringing the total to over 1200! But if you're eager to use what is done, they'll be coming to your inboxes soon!
Thank you all so much!

Final New Set Unlocked!
And Only One Stretch Goal Remained
You've all exceeded what I thought was possible with this campaign. You've shared, commented, pledged, and genuinely turned this little project into a community. Thank you.
Let's finish with a bang! I've adjusted the Social Stretch Goal as you can see above. I've marked the furniture tokens that you've already unlocked. You can unlock the bonus round tables and padded chairs with just 25 more Facebook shares and 20 Twitter retweets! You've probably already done it while I'm typing this. ;)
The token spreadsheet should be up to date with the Prehistoric set and Dark Matter. Let me know if you see anything missing. You can find it here: Token Spread Sheet
Thank you for your amazing support!

The Final 48 Hours - the Undead Dragon Returns
almost 2 years ago

Adventurers!
It's been an amazing ride. It's hard to believe it's coming to a close. I'm honored that you all have chosen to share it with me! This update is quick and to the point!
The Undead Dragon Has Returned as an Add-on
The Undead Dragon is an Add-on only. It is not included with any other add-ons or pledge tiers. Those who add it will also get the digital png file. The digital file will not be available separately.
The Final Stretch Goal is Set
The last 48 hours should be huge. I'm sure we'll unlock these beautiful tokens easily.
Let's enjoy the last 2 days together. I'll be here to answer questions and chat.
Thank you all so much! Sincerely,
Darryl T. Jones (aka Splattered Ink)

Expanded Digital Tokens & Token Inventory Included With the Encounter PDFs
almost 2 years ago
– Sun, Feb 05, 2023 at 07:18:57 PM
Good evening backer family,
This is just a quick update to let you know about a few recently added things that you might have missed.
Token Inventory
There's a really cool feature with, the soon to be unlocked, Encounter PDFs. Each one will include a token inventory. This will help you identify tokens that you don't know off the top of your head, and, if you want, you'll be able to print the page and put it into your binders. Use them however you want! I'm sure some of you will come up with some really creative ways to organize your tokens. When you do, share them with me. :)
Expanded Digital Tokens
When I set out to produce this set of tokens, my main goal was to make something really cool that you could use at your table and take with you wherever you game. I know that online play is growing fast and I knew some would want digital tokens, but my focus was on the physical product. Well, I hear you. You want all the token colors in digital. Therefore, I've added both a pledge tier and an add-on that covers all three color sets in digital PNG format.
The Social Goals Have Been Updated
That's right, there is a new Tweet you can retweet and Facebook post you can share. This gives you another opportunity to spread the project to your friends, effectively doubling your contribution to unlocking the furniture tokens.
I will probably have another update for you tomorrow.
Until then, My thanks to you all,
Darryl T. Jones (aka Splattered Ink)

Another project I backed - The Salmon of Knowledge
Rumor has it that anyone who catches and cooks the salmon will be granted the answer to any question they ask.
This is actually the second project from One Dollar One Shots I've backed. For a dollar, you can't go wrong and I love that hook. I'm in, give me some salmon!
