What's next?

After our Kickstarter for Minikin Berry Brawl didn't quite reach its funding goal, we decided to shift our gaze towards new opportunities, and we're absolutely thrilled to share some exciting news with you! 🚀

Minikin Games is teaming up with Absafe, an Aberdeen-based charity organization that's deeply committed to safety education. They will be our design partner for our next adventure!

Introducing the game project currently under the code name "Water Edition" 💧 - the game is designed to be sleeker and simpler, making it easily accessible, more likely to secure funding, and smoother to develop. Due to the complexities of Brexit and the current state of the game's development, we've made the difficult decision to offer this as a UK exclusive.

The "Water Edition" will introduce a more prominent card-based aspect, but fear not, we're still fans of tactile feedback, so there'll be plenty to tinker with! Our aim is to create something compact yet rich in content and replayability while expanding the player count to accommodate 2-6 players!

And guess what? All the illustrations will still be lovingly crafted by yours truly. But there's a twist! This time, it's going to be a team effort! Jeremy (that's me) will continue to lead the charge in operations and design. You can still catch me at conventions, just like before, but

you'll also get to meet some new faces, including Kairn and Louise!

Don't forget to follow us on social media. We'll be sharing in-depth insights into the development process, including concept art, playtesting results, and even public voting for designs!

A heartfelt thank you to all our backers who've been eagerly awaiting the next steps for Minikin Berry Brawl. Unfortunately, after extensive discussions and cost assessments, restarting the project in the near future doesn't seem feasible. But don't worry, we're not abandoning the idea entirely; it's just not on the immediate horizon. Our apologies to everyone who was excited about playing Minikin Berry Brawl, and to each person who backed or followed along – your support has meant the world to us. ❤️

Thank you to all who filled out the feedback form sent out. All the responses have encouraged us to try again and stay in this industry. Our main takeaway was the scope of the project was too large for our minimal background. We made mistakes, learned a whole lot and gained knowledge that will set us up for success next time around. It is a fantastic feat from all of you to have reached £3,000 on our first project, and by no means are we giving up!

We invite you to join us on this exciting new journey as we work on building up our name as a studio. And who knows? Maybe, just maybe, we'll reunite with our minikin friends down the road. But for now, Minikin will take its place on the shelf.

Thank you <3
