Hi!
So the money is enough, we can confirm it, the amount of the final invoice is a little bit higher than the one we predicted but we can still manage it.
We received the invoice yesterday (They took a week to process it and create the final offer with everything included) but there are some small problems with the data that we are trying to fix this weekend.
As soon as the payment proceeds production will start and once it is done it will take 15-20 business days for the shipping.
About the shipping: for everyone that has some special cards (custom card - first Kickstarter card) you will not receive this card in the first shipping but with a second one. The reason is the following: the company doesn't want to take the responsibility to open the custom cards and divide them in single parcels. I will receive all these cards with express shipping to my place and proceed to send all your cards via the postal service. The cards shouldn't take too long to reach you.
I hope the next update I will send to you will be named "Production as started"
Thank you,
Andreja

Hi Everyone!
We fixed the shipping cost problem partially: the money we collected is enough to cover the shipping cost. The only extra cost we have to cover by our pocket (for now, they still have to confirm) is the extra cost that appeared and grew this August.
We are now checking the last details but the production (which should take a week) should start if everything is okay next Monday.
So yes, everything looks fine now.
See you,
Andreja

Hi Everyone!
I'm writing this update as I see some of you asked for some news.
As I wrote on Instagram, the game is finished and ready for printing, we are waiting for the offer for the shipping. I will explain better: when we collected the shipping money, we used a calculator that the fulfillment company sent us to create the different world zones with different prices. In the meantime, we completed the surveys and faced an extra cost for every shipping we decided to cover from our pockets. Once we had all the information we completed a table to send to the company to calculate the precise amount to pay for the shipping. From this point, 3 things happened:
- The extra cost doubled, but this is not the problem as we can cover it since most of you are from the USA which is the country with the lowest fee for packaging
- Once we received the offer for the shipping they used the wrong formula: they made the express shipping option that is way too expensive (50$ for the cheaper countries). Now we are waiting for the right one with the standard shipping.
- A war has started so all the prices are growing
Now, the final part: we collected the shipping cost before having the actual offer so we can speed up the process since once we receive the offer we can pay instantly and start the printing and the shipping. When I created the campaign I calculated a small profit margin to invest in the game that will come out the next year "Pizzeria del Gatito". If I can cover all the difference in the shipping cost between the collected and the real one with this profit margin I will do so.
The only bad thing that could happen is that these shipping costs have grown so much that I have to refund the shipping correct them on BackerKit and start the surveys again, but I assure you that this way is the last way I will take. Before getting into this, we will search for a new company for the fulfillment with cheaper rates.
I will keep you updated from now on on this topic and also on how the production is going.
Thank you for everything,
Andreja

Hey everyone,
As suggested by some of you, the recovery link doesn't work for the people that use AppleID on Kickstarter.
If you are using it and haven't received the survey yet, e-mail [email protected] with the object "AppleID e-mail change".
The e-mail must contain your name and surname, the Kickstarter name and the new e-mail you want to use on BackerKit.
Thank you!
Andreja
