Great news!

Your games are loaded into a shipping container set to make it's way across the Pacific Ocean to meet our fulfillment partner in New Jersey! The shipment is scheduled to set sail this weekend and arrive at it's destination around the 27th of February. Within a week from landing, product will make it's way into the hands of our fulfillment team who will promptly start packing up rewards and sending them out to all our backers.

Which means we are still on track to start delivering in March! Woohoo! If everything continues smoothly, you'll be catching sheep in no time at all!

Please note that we will be locking addresses in Backerkit on February 25th, so if you need to update your address, please do so on Backerkit's website before that time. Thanks!

As always, thank you for your continued patience and support,

Hey everyone! Just wanted to touch base here and let you all know we are currently in the process of wrapping up production (Christmas pun intended). We're also working on getting a shipping container scheduled in January to send the finished games to our fulfillment partner and start sending sheep all around the world! 

Oh, and our website is nearly ready to go live so that's pretty cool too. We'll keep you posted on that!

Thanks so much for an incredible year -- can't wait to make next year the Year of the Sheep!

Happy Holidays,

Full Production, Timeline & Customs Update
about 3 years ago – Tue, Nov 09, 2021 at 03:13:09 AM

Full production is underway! That's right, thousands of Sheep in Disguise games are about to start coming hot off the presses. We took our time checking, double-checking, then triple-checking each individual file for hiccups/typos and we think we got them all (fingers crossed!). Although full production preparations took up a good chunk of time, we should still be on track for a March 2022 delivery. The biggest hurdle from here is going to be freight shipping. 

Here's a quick breakdown of the process from here: First, mass production of Sheep in Disguise has to finish which should take roughly 60 days (end of December). Next, we need to ship the finished products to the US via freight shipping. The only problem with that is the massive supply chain issue currently gripping the world. The western coast of America had been hit particularly hard. So, the current plan is to go through the Panama Canal and land on the east coast. That should take another 60 days, putting us at the end of February/early March. As soon as the product lands it will be immediately unpacked by our fulfillment partner, repacked into individual orders, then sent out to all you wonderful and patient (and did I mention handsome?) backers.  

TLDR; We SHOULD be on track for March 2022 delivery, however, the supply chain is currently a mess worldwide. If there are any delays that push back delivery, we will be sure to update you all ASAP.

Next up we have to talk about customs. Unfortunately, due to the supply chain issues, shipping costs are through the roof and we are going to have to eat a lot more of the costs than we originally anticipated. With these fees stacking up, we regrettably will not be able to cover VAT and other worldwide customs taxes.  Backers in the USA will be unaffected by this, and for most of our worldwide backers, this should not be an issue for your delivery arriving at your door. However, worldwide backers will be responsible for customs-related taxes and some backers may have to pick up their packages. We apologize in advance if you are impacted by this. 

OK, that should wrap it up for now, but if you have any questions please feel free to comment on this post or email us at [email protected]. We will try to respond as quickly as possible and if we do not have the answer, we will bring your questions to someone who does!

Thanks so much!

Great news everyone! Our samples are finished and on their way to us. Once we have all of the boxes in hand, we will be able to closely review and make sure everything is in order, as well as take some higher-quality pictures and videos for you all.

In the meantime, check out these photos provided by the manufacturer to tide you over!

You can see the foil's shine a bit here, but we will get a video when the samples arrive to better showcase the original box.

Thank you all so much for your support and patience. Because of all of you, Sheep in Disguise has become a reality! We are so excited to have these boxes show up at our door and to get moving into full production!

More photos coming soon!
