Well, we’ve gone and done it – the Kickstarter campaign for Specimen went live on September 5. We have until October 9 to raise $30,000 so we can finish up the graphics and print the game. To give you a deeper look into the world of the game, we’ll be adding more videos to the page soon. We raised over a thousand dollars on our first day, so needless to say we’re pretty excited about things so far. Go on over to the Kickstarter page and check it out – it’s pretty cool!
