DAY 4: THE BEGINNING OF BARBARIC
over 3 years ago – Fri, Aug 12, 2022 at 05:33:07 AM

The Beginning of Barbaric

In the near future, the human’s energy source will eventually deplete, so an alternative must be either built or discovered soon. Eventually, humanity is successful in building an atomic core. However, they do not know the severe side effect that is going to happen later. Time passes by for several years. Radioactivity from these atomic cores is slowly absorbed by human bodies, which cause dysfunction in

reproductive system and premature deaths. Furthermore, these atomic cores accelerate the global warming at an astonishing pace. Sudden flooding happens everywhere from the melting of polar ice caps. As a consequence, humanity is ceased to exist. What remains is just ruins of inventions and technologies of once prosperous civilization.

Still, those atomic cores continue to burn with no sign of stopping. The radioactivity, which is proven lethal to humans, instead causes rapid evolution in exposed animals. Their DNA mutates from generation to generation, until they become sentient beings with instinct embed in their minds, called “Barbaric”. A war breaks out between different Barbaric factions, struggling for survival in the first period after this evolution. Surviving Barbarics scatters to find new home all over the globe. They discover the remains of human civilization, which later will be modified in several ways, including new form of vehicles known as “The Gear” or even repair their own bodies damaged from the horrific war.

These atomic cores are still essential to the Barbaric. Each clan is in need of these cores, which are scattered all over the world, to expand their own territory in this flooded world. Therefore, they train their own warriors to accomplish this task. They are called “The Rider,” whose main missions are to scavenge for resources for their own clan and to expand their territory, via acquisition of human-created atomic cores. The war is far from over, but this time, for a different reason, it’s for the “Resources.”

DAY 3: NO MORE STRETCH GOALS!?
over 3 years ago – Fri, Aug 12, 2022 at 04:33:38 AM

Hello Barbarics!

This is very cool, and we don't think that everything would go so fast. And thanks again for support from all backers. We have another important concern to inform you that the Early Bird Pledge is ending within 2 hours from now. For the All-In Bundle, this is the best price for this project, which already includes Daily Unlocks. There are still more unlocks waiting for you, whether they are Rider or Gear or ...!?

Day 3 - 220,000 SGD Unlocked!

Raiden's Promo Cards - Just like other Gears, the promo cards will add more varieties to the skill.

Daily FAQ

Q: Is it possible to have a full Coop mode for Barbaric?

A: We originally designed Barbaric as a competitive game between players. However, from many backers' request, we will be reviewing this for possible modules, which might come soon.

What's next?

After each day, we are going to share the stories and lore of the world of Barbaric along with daily post updates. We have plans to add more Daily Unlocks. Of course, they are going to be interesting and worthy for you to back this project for sure. We hope that you will still continue following and supporting until the end of this project, which is on September 5th. This will be a great journey both for you guys, our backers and us.

Thank you so much!

DAY 2: FINAL CALL FOR EARLY BIRD!
over 3 years ago – Thu, Aug 11, 2022 at 12:25:20 AM

Hello Barbarics!,
yesterday was a fantastic opening day and we had so much fun celebrating the launch together. There are only less than 24 hours left until the Early Bird period expires. (If you adjust after today, you won’t be able to revert back to Early Bird later.) This is the best piece, combined with the value of STGs. We are certain that they will be worthy for you.

Big Change Decision!
We have found some doubts whether the remaining STGs will be unlocked as we have originally hoped for. Additionally, our price is quite expensive compared to the value of what you are going to get now. Therefore, we had a team meeting and thought that everyone’s confidence is crucial. As a result, we decided to change the format of the STGs to the new one. We are going to reveal new rewards in the Daily Unlock instead, regardless of the amount of order on Kickstarter, so that the game and unlocks are going to be worthy to you. We have prepared more unlocks for the next 25 days until the project ends. We sincerely hope that you will be more satisfied with this major change to the campaign.

Day 2 - Already at 190,000 SGD

• Upgraded Box - all boxes will be upgraded to have Spot UV on the front cover with linen finishing. Art print will also be added inside the front cover of the box.
• New Gear (Raider, The Shield Breaker) - Radien is the Gear that possess abilities to break the shield of enemy’s Gear. It can also create magnetic field that manipulates movement of enemies as well.

Daily FAQ
Q: Why are there very few monsters? Are there going to be more of them?
A: We just want to inform you that Monsters in this game are considered as obstacles, which add an exciting element to the game. However, the real fun is the variety of combo possibilities from combinations of Riders and Gears. This will keep you coming back for more plays. We don’t just ignore your opinions though. Keep your eyes peeled for our Daily Unlocks!

That’s it for today.

Thank you so much!

DAY 1: FUNDED!
over 3 years ago – Wed, Aug 10, 2022 at 07:50:11 AM

Hello, Barbarics!

We are so excited that our Barbaric has successfully funded in just 45 minutes! This is incredible. We would like to thank you for deciding to become our backers! And we would like to inform all barbarics that we are going to provide updates everyday during the campaign, and respond to as many comments and feedback as we can. We are willing to open our eyes and ears to all opinions in order to improve as much as possible, because you are the essence of Barbaric!

Why is the goal only 20,000 SGD?

We have previously opened pre-orders in Thailand, which granted us more than 58,000 SGD from Thai people! We therefore, require just not much during the crowdfunding campaign to cover the cost of production of this game. We would like to say thank you to all of our backers for supporting and trusting in Barbaric.

Day 1 - Already at 130,000 SGD This is unbelievable!

•  Insert Tray - Now, we will add the Plastic Insert Trays to every copy of Barbaric. For this time, we have decided to go with a different manufacturer. The trays will be designed to accommodate the proportions of Miniatures to prevent possible damage. We will do better than we have done before.
•  Upgrade Cards - All cards will have their thickness increased from 300 GSM to 350 GSM, also they will have linen finish. That’s all for every pledge!
•  Upgrade Dice - All dice will be upgraded to clear crystal texture with gold printing. This makes rolling dice feel better than ever.
•  New Rider (Richy, The Mechanic) with Promo cards - Richy has a unique way of play. This is done by controlling her robotic rat to attack and inflict Debuff to her targets, despite the complexity of skill usage conditions.
•  Upgrade Player Board - Lore will be printed with art on the back of the player boards.

Daily FAQ

Q: According to the initial feedback, there were some concerns about the pricing, how can you explain this?

A: We understand that the project during this time might have a higher price than the benchmark we have done before. However, for this time, we have agreed with the factory to source for the very best material in every way. There are even more STGs along the way, waiting for you during the Barbaric’ 4 weeks journey on Kickstarter.

Looking forward

We have big dreams and plans for this game and universe we have created. Your support here directly drives those plans! That’s it for Day 1 Update! We’ll see you in the comments. Come back here tomorrow for more reveals and more stories.

Thank you so much!
