Oh wow! 2nd of June Update!

THE FINAL STRETCH! ONLY 2 DAYS LEFT TO BUY THE MAGPIE COLLECTION AND GRAB 10 EXCLUSIVE GAMES + MUSIC, FILMS AND ART!

Hello reader! You look fantastic! We are crowdfunding to replace stolen equipment we lost during Berlin Games week. In return for support, we are creating THE MAGPIE COLLECTION, a bundle of exclusive games, art, music and films by amazing people, such as the creators of SUPERHOT, The Stanley Parable, Mc Pixel and many more.

We've been making good progress, but we are still ways off the amount of money to replace everything that got stolen.

As of today, there is only A VERY LOW NUMBER OF HOURS left to buy the collection and receive all these great things.

Here are some cool facts you should know:

  • GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE! See some hints of the HOT STUFF you'll be buying. It's at the top of the Indiegogo campaign now, but here's the link again just to make sure you see it. It's pretty cool! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuFn9Iw7M5c
  • If you have previously backed the campaign and bought a single copy of the collection for 10€, you can up your contribution and upgrade to the 20€ tier, which gets you THREE copies total. That's two extra copies to give to friends or foes! Just make sure you use the same e-mail address so we can sort it out on our end!
  • We will be hosting The Magpie Collection on itch.io, everyone's favourite platform for games by cool people who haven't sold their souls just yet. You will be sent a download code (or multiple download codes) via e-mail along with a link to redeem it. In case you haven't got an itch.io account yet, please make one so you can claim the download (this is necessary as it helps prevent code sharing).
  • There a still some SPECIAL PERKS left for you to grab! For example, be THE GRAVE BOSS in A GAME ABOUT YOU! (by William Pugh & Dominik Johann) and have your likeness drawn by Adventure Time creator PENDLETON WARD. He's a lovely person who draws the funny pictures! Or maybe get a GENUINE COMMODORE 64 TAPE with a game by Sos, creator of McPixel! He's been hard at work coding it with just one arm – the other one is broken, but his skills and good spirit are not!

If you have questions of any kind, please do reach out to us on Twitter (@HonestWilliam & @zerstoerer).

Thanks so much to everyone who has bought The Magpie Collection so far, to all the people who mentioned it on their Twitter, website or podcast, and to everyone who is willing to DO A GOOD THING and grab all this great content RIGHT. NOW.

2 MORE DAYS! WE CAN DO THIS MAYBE POSSIBLY! LET'S LOOK BACK ON THIS DAY TOGETHER AND BE ALL LIKE "OH YEAH, I BOUGHT THAT AND IT WAS A REALLY GOOD DECISION. I HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE AND A COPY COSTS LESS THAN, LIKE, A COFFEE AT STARBUCKS. SO GLAD I MADE THAT CHOICE AND SPOKE UP AGAINST BIRD CRIME AND BECAME ONE OF THE REALLY REALLY COOL KIDS."

Yours truly,

The Magpie Collection contributors and organisation

Whoa! 18th of May Update!!

Hello supporters, friends and press! You look nice today! How are you? We are crowdfunding to replace stolen equipment we lost during Berlin Games Week! First of all, a big thank you to everyone who bought the Magpie Collection so far – at the time of this writing the campaign is at almost 6.5k Euros. It’s not enough. It’ll never be enough (until it’s 17k).

We’ve got two new contributors who are making games that you can ONLY GET for the next 18 days as part of The Magpie Collection (PC, Mac & mostly Linux!!). We’ve got Jonathan van Hove (LAZA KNITEZ!, CANABALT 100P) and Sean o’Dowd (BIRDBALL HD)!

But we’ve got an especially big and cool announcement to share with you today!  Pendleton Ward (creator of Adventure Time) is going to be doing some CHARACTER DESIGN for ‘A Game About You!!’ YES!!!

If you grab one of these super exclusive tiers NOW then you will get drawn by Pen Ward and put in a fantastic adventure-esq, zelda-ish game made by William Pugh and Dominik Johann!!

(ONLY THE TIERS MARKED WITH PEN WARD WILL INCLUDE THIS)

Here are some of the COOL/HOT projects that are being WORKED ON/THOUGHT ABOUT this VERY SECOND/DAY by our team of indie scum!!

If you gave us 20 EURO(s) before we added the new tier - don’t worry! We will automatically give you the tier you deserve.

(P.S. For those of you who are wondering - all the games in The Magpie Collection will be playable on PC and Mac, either as executables or browser based games. Linux support will be available for the good titles).

Hey! You! What is this?

  • A bundle of 10 exclusive games and various pieces of art, music and films made by cool and famous games industry people. Delivered on the 4th of June!

  • A one-time only, limited edition super-rare opportunity: Once the campaign is over, so is your chance of getting your hands on this sweet digital magic. Any extra money will be donated to charity!

  • Name-your-price (minimum 10€), DRM-free, no faffing about. Delivered right to your cybergrid. Every donation goes towards replacing hardware and equipment that was stolen during Berlin Games Week (this really happened and the thief was most likely a giant magpie).

Help cool people continue doing what they do best and get great stuff in return!

Our Demands & Your Demands

During our stay at the international games festival A MAZE. / Berlin, a large number of people got their belongings stolen: Laptops, tablets, phones, backpacks, passports, documents. Having the right tools to work with is vital for any artist and developer, so we are looking to replace whatever we can through this campaign.

The total value of lost items adds up to roughly 17000 Euros – if we manage to meet this goal, it'll be like nothing was ever stolen at all! Back in time! Back in time!

If we fall short, we will split up the money among ourselves and end up in a better position than we were before – that’s not too bad! In case the support exceeds our goal, we will donate all the extra money to Cancer Research UK and Alzheimer's Research UK.

What You'll Get!

10 games by developers such as William Pugh (The Stanley Parable), Sos Sosowski (McPixel) and Jack de Quidt (Castles in the Sky)! Music, art and films by some of the best people that we could get at short notice. These weird things may or may not be related to crime or magpies (the master thief of the bird kingdom!), but we’ll do our best to make them as interesting and special as possible. These are the people who are making things for YOU!

A measly 10 Euros gets you the whole collection, but we have special perks for larger sums of backer cash: This is your chance!! Perhaps get a special game made about yourself! Get to be the enemy in that game! Get to be the first boss, because who’d like to be a default enemy, am I right? Ha ha!

Secret Major Bueno Perk!

For just €50 you can be a CHARACTER & STAGE in Major Bueno's excellent game for The Magpie Collection 'FRITZ STIBITZ'!! Not only will you be granted ETERNAL LIFE (in the notion that a rendering of you will live on forever) - but you will also get to pick your character's VALUABLE POSSESSION (and know the pain of having it stolen from your ugly denim pockets).

Anyway!

Whether you can or can't afford to donate - you can help us just by getting the word out! Tweet #magpiecollection, update your status, or do whatever it is people do on Ello. This is a once-only bundle - make sure no one misses out!
