Hello Apequesters!

The games are being sent out!

Friday!!
almost 3 years ago – Wed, May 17, 2023 at 03:25:30 AM

Here they come!! 

The shipping vessel decanted its load on time! The part-filled containers were separated and searched in good standing and the lovely English customs officers waved the pallets through without a hitch! 

All this means that ApeQuest the game is being put onto a lorry and delivered to Spiral Galaxy Games warehouse in Telford on Friday! 

I will be there waiting for it of course, ready to split up the shipment to allow those guys to do what they do best and get the games to you.. I will be personally delivering a few special copies and making sure everything else is hunky-dory. 

This means that the UKGE will have the delight of seeing ApeQuest the game being played!

on a serious note...

Please Please Please check your backerkit account and your emails from backerkit to make sure your bank is not witholding the funds for Apequest, as of right now 47 people will have their copy delayed as their bank is trying to confirm this is a legit transaction.  There is still plenty of time to rectify this before they go out so don't panic! 

 Thank you again! 

Mark

Good Afternoon backers!!

Mark here, just a quick update to let you all know that the vessel carrying out games is currently in the English channel and due to dock in 11 hours or so.

It is then up to UK customs to decant the ship and check all the paperwork is in order before releasing the shipment to Spiral Galaxy Games, who will then take it back to their warehouse to distribute on my behalf! 

I will also be meeting the shipment as it arrives at Spiral Galaxy HQ to ensure everything is in order and to personally deliver the games with specific add-ons too!

Now, I have just spoke to the Professor himself to enquire about the wonderful new Apequest Album being made especially for us all... He is incredibly excited and can't wait to send out the digital downloads for all of the new songs! 

To ensure the final mastering is completed to the highest standard he is taking the whole album through the professors maxwell-o-matic 4000 and it is due to be completed very soon, expect to be downloading it around about the same time as the postman arrives with the game.

Speaking of the professor!!! 

Have you seen his very own Kickstarter? The art of Professor Elemental!

It has already smashed it target funds and is now unlocking stretch goals! please go and show the prof some love and you'll definitely see some fantastic artwork, six full length comic books, three novels, twelve albums and enough merchandise to fill an entire jumble sale!

I will let you all know when the games are in my hands!

MAY UPDATE
almost 3 years ago – Mon, May 01, 2023 at 06:09:41 AM

Hello All! 

May the first and we have news! 

Firstly, where is it?! 

well, great question, it is exactly here... 

Approaching the suezs canal puts the ship on track to where it should be! ...which is nice! please feel free to track it yourself here 

But Mark, I've moved!

Well, do not fear, because It is also time to lock in your address for postage, so if you have moved house since we began, you will indeed get a chance to update your address for me via the Backerkit email about to be sent out. 

What about postage?

Spiral Galaxy Games will be tasked with helping me fulfil the postage to you all and they are excellent at what they do. But not only that, they also helped my import the entire shipment, and that means that your games will be on their way to you at the soonest possible time as the pallets will go directly to the SPG warehouse for distribution. 

As for the cost however, global prices have not yet come down to pre pandemic levels. Despite my wishful thinking! I have held off as long as I could to ensure the best and most accurate price on postage which as of today is... 

UK - £5

EU - £15

USA & ROW - £20

I know they are not the costs we all wanted to see. The true cost is actually greater than this and I am taking a hit from everyone individual postage costs in order to make it more palatable for us all. I hope that helps a little. 

Thank you all for the support and understanding! 

Mark

A few words from the Good Professor and a few good photos from Mark!!

Hello,

Professor Elemental here. Ive been uncharacteristically quiet during this campaign. I know it's not like me to get someone else to do all the hard work only for me to come in at the end and grab as much glory as possible, but that seems to be how it's worked out this time. Ahem.

Anyway, while Mark has been feverishly creating the best possible Professor game- thanks to your support, I've been working hard on the new Apequest EP. And I've got good news. It's actually really good.

I can say that with absolute confidence for the following reasons:

1. Tom Caruana produced all new tracks for every part of the adventure.
2. There are a lot of pirates.
3. We have guest spots from the likes of Victor Vector (Gaslight Troubadors), Madam Misfit, The Sweetchunks band and The Cog is Dead.
4. There are a lot of vykings
5. It was supposed to be four tracks long. its now eight, its' basically an album.
6. The story of Geoffrey is finally and conclusively ended. And no, I won't explain what that means, you'll have to wait to find out.

So , thank you for you patience hang on in there. We have a lovely adventure in the making and it will be worth the wait.

All the best,

Professor Elemental!!

Hello to you all from Mark!! 

BEHOLD!! one of the SIX pallets that are currently being loaded onto the ship! 

I am excited! You should be excited! ITS COMING NOW!
