A simultaneous strategy game about beetles where smart planning earns points, but the lure of greed can cost you dearly!
Just a quick update to say that late pledges are now open to anyone who missed out on the campaign. So if any friends missed out, point them to the orange button next to the main campaign image that says 'Late Pledge' or just use this link:
All items are the same and are the same price too.
Cheers

Hello all,
The pledge manager will be launching very soon. Please remember you HAVE to complete this step to get your games. If we don't know where you live, we can't send them out.
For those who've used a pledge manager before - you know the drill: Fill it out and sit back and wait.
For those who haven't used a pledge manager before - do not fear! It's pretty simple really.
You will receive an email inviting you to complete your survey on BackerKit. This is our pledge manager and this is where you'll be able to provide your details for delivery, pay shipping costs and any relevant taxes. You will also have a last minute chance to change your pledge level and choose any add-ons.
You'll enter your card details and submit payment but we actually don't charge your card until a later date. Depending when you fill out the pledge manager, this could happen weeks and maybe even months from now - so if you see a charge from Split Stone Games at a later date, don't worry, we haven't charged you twice!
You can add extra copies of STAG, posters, books, art prints and our other games and it will all be one flat shipping rate. Treat yo' self.
Once the pledge manager is up and running folks who were late to the party will be able to late pledge. So if you have any friends that missed out you can let them know.
I think that's it for now. Pease and love!
Jack
Just a quick update to say a massive thank you to every single one of you who backed STAG!
I'll do another post soon with more details about next steps, but for now, I'm gonna have a beer and celebrate in the evening sun.
Cheers

Hello everyone,
Over the weekend we went over the milestone of 3000 backers! A massive thank you to every single one of you.
The last couple of weeks I've been reflecting on the journey of creating STAG. (Or as it was originally called "STAG STAG STAG". 😂)
I've been going through old designs and sketches. Seeing these again has given me a good perspective of the project as a whole. It’s nice to see the fruits of your labour come together. Day to day progression can seem slow, so taking a step back can help you appreciate the work that’s gone into each step. Every card I cut out, every token I painted, every playtest I went to, every rule tweaked. It all built up into a game that I can say I’m very proud of.
Below is my notebook which shows is the first glimpses of STAG:
From these sketches to a fully produced game:
So if you are working on something yourself, remember to step back and appreciate the work you've done already - it's all too easy to always be chasing or thinking about the "next" thing.
The last 24 hours of the STAG campaign is upon us now, hopefully with a few more beetle chums we'll get over the next milestone of 4000 backers!
I can't wait for you all to try the game. Spin the board, tuck a card, dupe a loved one and furrow your brow as you optimise the growth of you little beetle friend.
Furrow my friends....furrow!
Big love
Jack
