Our next step is to set up the pledge manager through BackerKit, which will allow everyone to confirm their rewards and shipping details. We sincerely apologize for the delay; we’ve had to handle a few personal matters before getting it ready, but we’re now back on track.
Meanwhile, the game is moving forward in development:

Hey everyone! We are thrilled to share that we have already crossed 300% of the funding goal!
Thank you so much for all the support! We are so happy ❤️
5th Stretch Goal achieved! ✅
Yeah! The fifth Stretch Goal has been achieved, and now, Black Tower Enigma will have a fishing minigame!
So far, those are the Stretch Goals we have already completed:
Aaaand yeah, as you can see, the final Stretch Goal is a special one!
By achieving this Stretch Goal, we are considering working on a Boss encounter!
This was not part of the original plan because, as you have seen in the demo, the gameplay and pacing are slow and full of exploration.
We believe we can manage to create a Boss encounter that will feel great for the game. That is not going to be easy, but we feel we can do that.
Entering the final hours!
Right now, we are in the final 36 hours of the campaign!
❤️ Please share the campaign with your friends! ❤️ ❤️ Let's try to unlock the final Stretch Goal! ❤️
