Stretch Goal #1 reached + Add-on preview
over 2 years ago – Sun, Oct 16, 2022 at 08:39:11 PM

Hey there everyone, we've got about three full days of the campaign left, so here's a multipart update for you.

Stretch Goal #1 Reached!

Good news, we've hit our first stretch goal of the campaign! That means that as promised, we're going to upgrade all physical copies of Ring Rivals to include tarot-sized wrestlers cards instead of the regular sized ones. 

It may seem like a small upgrade, but one of the most important parts of the game is understanding what wrestler you're going up against when you want to win, so this makes things a bit easier by avoiding having to pass your cards around all the time - particularly in matches where there are more than 2 players.

Playmat Add-On Preview

At the end of campaign, all of you will be invited to confirm your pledge details and shipping information in Backerkit, the pledge manager that we'll be using. More detail on exactly what you'll need to do at that point will be explained in another update.

One such option we're going to offer is a rubber neoprene playmat with a custom design. We've just received a copy of one for ourselves, so take a look.

And here's another image with some cards (tarot-sized wrestlers and regular sized move cards) on it for a size reference.

The playmat will provide a surface for you to easily move and flip your cards around on, without sticking to or getting caught on anything. It can make a good alternative to your standard dinner table or carpet, particularly if you've gone somewhere where you can't guarantee there'll be somewhere good to play.

On top of that, they're easy to transport and store. The mats are super thin, and can be rolled up without worry of creasing or tearing. You don't only have to use the mat for playing Ring Rivals, so you could always take it with you wherever you might need it.

Let us know what you think in the comments below.

And that's all for now.

Thank you for supporting Ring Rivals!

Excellent news! We've reached our funding goal!

We are incredibly grateful to all of you backers who have supported us with your pledges as well as those of you who have shared our campaign on social media too! We couldn't have done it without you! Thank you so much!

We know some of you are eager to see more of the game in action so we are actively working on this. We will hopefully be able to soon share with you a link so that you can try the game out virtually on Tabletopia.

We still have 25 days before the campaign ends so please continue to share the Ring Rivals campaign with your friends and families. We'd love to reach our stretch goals and in return deliver an even better product to you!

Once again, thank you for all of your support! This means so much to us!

Over 40% of the way there!

Hey there, everyone!

Tremaine here, from the OBGames team.

First off, we'd like to extend a massive thank you to everyone who has backed Ring Rivals so far. We're approaching the halfway point to the funding goal now and it's only day 2!

And we'd also like to welcome all the new people who have decided to follow the project.

We're going to keep on campaigning onwards and upwards from here to reach our goal, but we'd love to hear your thoughts about the project - questions, suggestions and feedback are all welcome, so drop a comment on our page or send us an email or message if you like.

Also, as our campaign is partnered with Jellop, those who have backed will receive a message on Kickstarter asking you to fill out a survey about how you came to back the project. This information is only used for analytical purposes, so please do fill it out if you're able to.

And if you want to get some smaller updates as the campaign moves along, why not follow us across our social media platforms:
