I’m a little disappointed that animated unit portraits isn’t one of the stretch goals.

Such an iconic part of Blizzard RTSs from Starcraft (1998) onwards

We have not shared all of our stretch goals...

I'm sure they'll come up with something good, and if not, Gerald can just say the devs will treat themselves to a nice coffee and we'd still keep throwing money at it

I love a good cuppa

Three weeks from now...

"OK, this HAS to be the final stretch goal. For real this time. SEVEN FACTIONS!"

(this is a joke. do not try to read anything into it.)

Been this myself since the announcement;)

I am just not a PvP player. And PvE-modes, like the convoy defense, are always limited or somewhat repetitive in games

However, I am actually still considering backing them.

Thank you for thinking about supporting our studio. Every pledge helps.

No shame in that! Custom games are one of our four "Cs" pillars, equally as important as campaign, competitive, and co-op!

Dumb question but: will this be streamed on Twitch specifically?

For most, yes. Some of the streamers in other regions are on their respective platforms, like DouYu and Bilibili.

Have esfand and asmon ever even played an RTS in their life lol

Asmongold is a big supporter of RTS--his first PC game was Warcraft II. They have both been nothing but awesome with Frost Giant and we are very grateful to have had their support.

Esfand has been awesome to work with. I can't think of a better content creator to handle our sci-fi Paladin Hero than Esfand.

I can respect the need for high profile streamers but Asmongold feels like a weird choice. Man has burned down more games than he’s built up and god knows it wouldn’t take a lot for him to sic his angry mob on these developers for something he viewed as a slight. Hope you guys know what you’re doing.

Very happy to see some old faces returning. Haven’t watched Grubby since the Heroes of the Storm days :)

Asmongold has been nothing but kind and generous with Frost Giant. He's a genuine fan of RTS--his first PC game was Warcraft II. He's been an absolute pleasure to work with, as has Esfand.

Asmongold and Esfand both did an incredible job showing how much fun it can be to play RTS co-op with friends. We're very grateful for their support. We hope that the RTS community can show them both the same love that they extended to our game and team.

Grubby is playing now, the game is CHOPPY. Donate to that kickstarter boys, they need that server space.

We got that taken care of pretty quickly, I thought!

Would love to see Harstem playing our game soon! After all, this is the year of Harstem.

Emotions running high with all that not getting into the beta I guess. It is in fact very grating, but I should not have called him an imposter, you choose who you want to associate with after all. Pretty terrible day all around though, particularly seeing how the beta access is out of my price range, just reminds of the joys of being poor now compared to just a year ago. Yikes. Not your problem though, that's on me. I'll avoid mentioning Husky from here on out. Cheers, and good luck with the kickstarter.

I sincerely hope that things get better for you soon and look forward to seeing you in Stormgate.

Does that mean you guys can send out more beta invites since you can afford more servers now?

We will first make sure that we can get all of our Founders in--that's going to be our priority.

With additional funding, we can also explore options for opening up access to Stormgate to even more players, including more beta signups.

We want to get Stormgate into as many hands as possible and the community's support can only help us make that a reality.

Thank you, everyone.

You came through for us--we were fully funded in under 15 minutes and you helped us raise FIVE TIMES our original funding goal--over $500,000 in just four hours.

If you haven't seen our Kickstarter, please consider supporting Frost Giant Studios and Stormgate. We're excited about our exclusive Collector's Edition and this is the easiest way to guarantee closed beta access for 2024.

Again, we couldn't have done it without you. The Reddit community has been "home base" for Stormgate since day one and your thoughtful feedback will forever be appreciated.
