Will this game have a single player mode?

Yes! Actually until the online stretch goal is cleared it will only feature a single player campaign. We’ll go into more detail in an update which we hope you look forward to, but clearing the initial goal is necessary to make online play happen.

What platform will the beta test be available on?

Due to the nature of development the beta tests will only be available on Steam. While we will look at organising them for other platforms, we can’t promise that beta tests on other platforms will be possible. We understand that not every backer will have access to a PC strong enough for gaming, but this is an unavoidable circumstance and we appreciate your understanding.

ベータ版はどのプラットフォームでプレイできますか?

開発の特性上、ベータ版はSteamを優先する形になります。他プラットフォームでのテストも検討はしますが、現段階ではお約束はできません。すべてのバッカーがゲームに十分なPC環境があるわけでないことはよく理解していますが、これはどうしても変えられない事情です。皆さまのご理解に感謝いたします。

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
