Pledge Manager & Late Pledge is Live!
over 1 year ago – Sun, Oct 23, 2022 at 06:08:12 AM

Hello Barbarics!

We have returned from the Essen Spiel '22 and ready to take the next step. So today we bring you news about the Pledge Manager and Late Pledge is opening!

Pledge Manager

We’ll proceed in two stages:

• Smoke Tests were sent out on October 23. For those who are unfamiliar, these go out to 5% of the backers to make sure everything is operating properly in the surveys. We will be sending out the rest of the surveys once we confirm that there are no hiccups. Also, please remember to check your spam folders.
• Then we'll send mass invites to all the backers and open the late pledges.

If you want to adjust your pledge or add on any additional items, this is your chance! Everyone who pledged for at least $1 during the campaign should see the option to "switch your pledge level" when you start your survey.

Once the pledge manager closes on December 31st, you will not be able to order this anymore!

Your payment for shipping, and any additional items you added, will be collected on December 31st when the BackerKit closes. If you would like to have your payment collected sooner than that, please email [email protected] once you are ready and we will work to get that taken care of as quickly as possible for you and we’ll send repeated emails and post updates about it.

Late pledge store is now open

If you missed out on the campaign, or you'd like to purchase any additional items head on over to Backerkit to secure your copy of Barbaric. 

You can still place a late pledge HERE!

If you have any additional questions regarding your survey, please contact us at [email protected]

Thank you so much!

DAY 28: CHANCE OF THE LAST RIDER AND GEAR!
over 1 year ago – Wed, Sep 07, 2022 at 09:36:09 AM

Hello Barbarics!

We have now entered the final phase of this project. There are only a few hours left until our project ends. From the current calculation of the prizes that we can give you, if the total order amount is more than this in the last period, we could give you one additional Gear and Rider. (Of course, along with the Promo) Let's join the countdown together for this special time. The Gear that will be added comes from the votes, 

which everyone can vote for at this link. We will close the vote count at the end of this project and summarize the results again after the campaign ends. 

For the Rider, we have chosen a character for you already, which is the closest competitor to the Peacock. If there is any additional opportunity for us to provide more either Rider or Gear, we will provide more details after the campaign ends. Let's join the countdown together and spread the news to everyone.

Day 28 - Book of Barbaric

This is a 40-pages Art Booklet containing the full artwork of each character (For most characters, you can not see all of them from the character boards), including the background of each character that we draw and pay attention to every detail. This also includes the backstory of each clan's Rider and lore of all Gears. Monsters and their Minions' stories are as well written here. We hope that everyone will be able to delve deeper into the world of Barbaric and more in our games, which we believe will definitely make you play this game more and make it more enjoyable for you all.

Special Gift for our Backers - Atomic Coin
To show appreciation to all Backers from trusting and believing in our game, we are very grateful and not hesitant on making this gift for all of you. "The Atomic Core, which is the heart of Barbaric, will be made of Zinc metal, with size of 5.5 cm (2.16 inches). Specially produced as a gift for all of our Backers. And of course, there will be no further availability after this, because it is a special reward, created especially for you all.

Backers' Choice (1,000 Backers) - New Rider (Xi Feng, The Breeze Baron) 

An ex-nobleman in the Kongque Clan, Xi Feng had an Emperor Fan as a weapon, which he could use to attack at close range, or merge with his internal energy, Qi, to control the air masses around him. He was ordered by the Emperor or Kongque to find and collect the Atomic Cores, which all of them will use to create a powerful weapon that could defeat every other clan. Of course, Xi Feng's Emperor Fan was also forged from an Atomic Core! His playstyle can be divided into 2 classes.

•  Storm Dancer, by evolving his fan to launch a long-range chakra attack, can assassinate his enemies quickly with ease. This also comes with evasion skill, which turns him into a terrifying assassin.
•  Wind Whisper, by developing his wind utilization even further, can manipulate the air masses around him to not just attack even larger groups of enemies, but also change the position of his targets as well.

And this is all for today! Let's countdown together in a few hours.

Finally, we are done!

We can say that this is the project, where we pack as much content as we can. And we would like to thank everyone in the community for providing such great feedback. Some of the rewards were new ideas that were created during the project just for you all. The optimism during the campaign was so energizing. We are so encouraged and excited to get this game into your hands, to let everyone know that you are a priority for helping to make our dream games come true. If you have additional questions, would like to get the latest news, or talk with other backers, please join our group!

What is next?

1) We take a break - we are going to be thanking a lot of people over the next couple of weeks for their contribution to this success.
2) Payment - Kickstarter is going to charge you for your pledges to the credit card you chose. If there are any issues, they should retry for 1-2 weeks. If you have any problem with the payment within this period, please contact Kickstarter support directly.
3) Pledge Manager - In early October, we are going to send a survey from Backerkit, in which you will confirm your order. It also gives you the option to upgrade your pledges, add additional add-ons, verify your shipping address, and finalize your shipping charges.
4) Monthly Updates - You can expect an update at least once per month. The next update is going to be within a few weeks once the Pledge Manager opens.

Lastly, thank you as always for helping each other in the comment section.

DAY 27: MORE THAN 144 COMBINATIONS NOW!
over 1 year ago – Sun, Sep 04, 2022 at 09:12:25 PM

Hello Barbarics!

Currently, our project has more than 24 different types of Riders and Gears, which means you can choose between 144 different character combinations! This makes each match really a game of its own. That’s why we focus on character development and before they are usable in the game, they have to go through a rough test to see all possibilities. After the project ends in a few days, we are going to focus on improving the balance test between characters, so that no one is either overpowered or feeble. This is because we think that balance is the key for making competitive games more enjoyable.

 Day 27 - Kraken's Promo Cards

Similar to other Gears, the Promo cards are going to add more variety and player choices to the skills available during the game.

Daily FAQ

Q: Is it possible to make a group purchase? 

A: Unfortunately not. But we will our best to provide the best possible shipping prices already for our Kickstarter supporters.

Quackalope 2 Player Gameplay from yesterday was awesome!

We have finally entered the last day for this project. Barbaric is the project that we, Hexa House, have spent more than 2 years on during the COVID Pandemic, which was a difficult time to work on. Until today, we are glad that everyone likes our game. We appreciate support from everyone, and want you to know that our additional choices and decisions we made over the course of this project always prioritize your needs in mind. 

Come and join the project countdown together at the end of this project!
