Good evening you silly clowns!
I just heard from Mixam that the two proof copies will be delayed from June 16th to June 20th. So I have moved the Lock Orders date to that time. You'll be notified if you want to make changes before the final date.
After that time, I'll check the physical copies for any errors, and then place the final order.
That's all for this quick update!

Backerkit Almost Done! Book Mostly Prepped!

Hello Funhouse Backers!
Only 2 people have left to finish their Backerkit surveys, which means I have almost the final order count for the books! Orders will be locked, so I can send off most of the digital downloads as soon as they are done, however if you need to change your address or anything, you can contact me to do so before I actually ship!
Vausch-The-Puca is working through the three page bonus comic and I have some previews to share with you, in which David is leaving the Funhouse, and drops his ticket, so a Clown follows him home to swallow him up!
Once Vausch is done, I will lock myself from adding any more pages, and order the proof copies, which will take a bit of time to be printed by Mixam, however proofs are very important so I can check for and resolve any mistakes before printing the actual final copies.
At the moment, I'd say I'm on track to having everything done by the start of August, however that date may move closer depending on how quick everything goes! Once the final print order is sent, I can see how much remaining funds there are for the shipping, and if there is a bit left over, I'll see about adding extra goodies, or even extra books, depending on what I have on hand!
That's all now for this update, I'll follow up in another week or so when I see how far Vausch is with the comics!

Backerkit Surveys Sent! Almost Ready to Lock Orders!

As 24 of you already know, your Backerkit surveys were sent out! These are to confirm your reward items from the Kickstarter like books and downloads, and collect your email or shipping address for delivering those items!
9 of you still need to complete this survey so I can make sure you're getting the items you wanted, and also in case you wanted to get anything else! Some people pledged only $1 and usually don't follow through on their surveys, so once they are almost all done, I will be locking the orders.
Once locked, you cannot make changes to your orders. This is so I can get an accurate count of how many books I need to order, and also the exact dollar amount it will cost. If you ever want to change anything, please let me know ASAP by sending a message here on Kickstarter or through Backerkit, it will be redirected back to me.
Once orders are locked, I will also be sending out digital downloads for all the other comics except for the 2 new Funhouse ones, which have to be finalized first, and I will do so by the end of May at the latest. Any new Funhouse comics I do after this month will have to be in the next volume, because more Funhouse commissions and bonus comics will just keep coming in.
That's all for now, once I have orders locked and digital downloads sent out in the first batch, you'll know!

Kickstarter Done! Fully Funded! What's next???
about 1 year ago

Thanks so much to those of you who jumped in on the final 48 hrs to back the Kickstarter and get this funded!
Funhouse Of Frights: Ringleader Edition will be in your hands within a few months! Here's what's going to happen between now and then:
Kickstarter will collect your payment over the next 30 days. Please make sure your credit card works and can charge properly. Kickstarter will contact you directly if there's a problem, do not contact me, I don't have control over that.
I am in the long process of setting up BackerKit, a platform for collecting your shipping addresses for physical items, and your email for digital items. You can also switch reward tiers, if you wanted extra items or want to upgrade, or just add on extra eBooks and physical books. All the shipping costs remain the same on Backerkit, so if you do add anything extra physical, additional shipping costs will apply. All digital only items have no shipping costs. BackerKit will charge cards at a different date once your items are confirmed.
If you missed the Kickstarter, you can still make a Late Pledge to certain tiers. This will STILL let you into the BackerKit later for confirming your items, and the above applies.
I am also opening up pre-orders for all these other items to my main store at TylerMannArt.ca including the new book. Payment and shipping costs will be charged immediately there, and your items will ship later with everybody elses.
Digital items will be distributed on Backerkit once everybody's orders are locked and as long as no extra payment is required.
So, it will take about a month or so to get everything going, but once that's all done, and the final page count of the comic is complete, printing and shipping will happen pretty quickly!
New books will be printed through Mixam Canada. If you want to learn about how they print books, check out their video here!
Additional books will be printed through Blurb, however due to past issues with The Voremalump and Voreology, I may re-print old books through Mixam instead if the costs are better.
That's all for now, if you have any questions, contact me directly here through Kickstarter so I can keep track of inquires. If you got a commission, I will contact you directly through email instead.
