Honorable Lytehelm...
I bring you another tale from the Starhelm Universe.
The pre-launch page for issue #1 of Galaxy Goodbyes is finally live!
Thank you again for joining us in our last campaign, even though we did not reach our original goal. We would still love to have your support on our next campaign, even if you'd just like to follow along. You can click the "Notify me on launch" button to be notified when the project goes live!
What has changed?
Campaign Scope
The exact funding goal for this campaign is going to be around a third of the original. This is because this campaign will focus entirely on the first issue of the whole story. Doing so will allow me to focus on strengthening each part of the story in separate parts and keep the scope and goal more reasonable.
Story Clarity
Initially, I had plans, scripts and sketches ready for a second story after issues 1-3 of Galaxy Goodbyes were released, which would tie into the events of the original and give more context. After looking over these plans though, it made more and more sense to combine these stories as one, jumping between two narratives that will find a common denominator in the end. In this way, I think everything went as it was supposed to, and that this story will be all the better for it.
Pledge Levels
The previous pledge levels were few and simple, which is perfectly fine. I did this so people could build their own pledge through add-ons. These will still exist. For this campaign though, I am looking to add pledge levels which already contain 1 or 2 of these add-ons. I believe this will make for an easier check-out experience.
Spreading the Word
Last time I got really sick during the campaign. That sure didn't help me advertise. This time, good health withstanding, I'll be doing more to promote the campaign before it goes live and after.
Speaking of just one such instance...
I'm excited to announce here that Starhelm Studios will have its very first booth at Roseville Comic Con on October 23rd! For anyone attending, we'll be there with our posters and more for sale. Sol the Starhelmsman himself may even make an appearance! More details for the event can be found here. Hope to see you there!
We'll be reaching out through many of the same channels we did last time as well to spread the word about our campaign.
Until Next Time...
There might be a few small updates on here as we lead up to the official launch, and maybe some after the new campaign goes live. Have a great weekend!
Aim for the stars!
