Y'all... are insane. And I love you for it.

Pintopia launch day has been incredible! We have unlocked ALL of the main pins + secrets!

I thought we'd have a lot more time on the secret pins... but y'all have been blowing my expectations out of the water. Yesterday I was able to get the first one done... it's DK64!



This pin features blue glitter! I'm super excited to see how it turns out!

Our second Secret Pin is ALSO UNLOCKED... and I'm working my tail off to get it done ASAP. Bear with me, I'll have it ready soon! But I will reveal... it's going to be Super Smash Bros!



The final unlock features RAINBOW adonized metal. And of course, it's Mario Kart 64! This pin is also a WIP but will feature Rainbow Road!!!



Since all of those unlocked day one, I'm bringing in a very special GUEST ARTIST, Zavlekat! for another pin set featuring characters from Star Fox! This artist and I have been best friends for over a decade -- I am so happy to introduce you to them and their work! Their pins are being added as stretch goals, and they are avalilable NOW as add ons for $13 each! There is also a bundle of all four avaliable for $50!




Finally, today at ~7pm CST, I'll be streaming on my Twitch with some Ocarina of Time co-op randomizer and chatting about Pintopia! I hope some of you will find time to swing by!

That's all I have for now. Let's keep up the momentum, gamers!

Much love,

Katze

Hellooooo gamers! We launch in two days!

As a thank you for following pre-launch, I wanted to share an exclusive link to view and back the project early! This will secure you exclusive Early Bird pricing! CLICK HERE TO PLEDGE!

Aside from that, I have a quick little update -- I finished the Banjo and Kirby pins!

Also, I made a digital mockup of the Yoshi egg charms to show how they'll work!



I'm so excited for launch. I hope you all are feeling the excitement too!

I'm figuring out logistics right now about possibly streaming an Ocarina of Time randomizer on Thursday to celebrate the launch. I'll let you all know if that goes thru!

Much love,

Katze

Heyo gamers!

Thanks so much for voting on the last poll. I've been able to devise an unlock order based off what we have so far (i'll adjust if there's a large change in the poll before it closes).

Right now the unlock order will be:

Pokemon Stadium
Yoshi's Story
Ocarina of Time
Kirby 64
Majora's Mask
Banjo Kazooie
Mario 64

It's a solid order I think! It's also really cool to see which designs you guys are liking, so again -- thanks for your input!

My next poll for y'all has to do with add ons! I have already figured out a couple add ons, but I'd like to add at least one more.

Please vote in the poll below!

As for what's planned already: I want to do holographic keychains with gold foil stamping for the lineart for each design!

Here's an example of what that would look like from my manufacturer:



Additionally, I'm gonna be doing a blind bag series of hatching Yoshi egg keychains! Again, an example from my manufacturer:



And a preview of the art and colors that will be available for these! One for each color of Yoshi playable in Yoshi's Story!



I'm having a lot of fun making stuff for this project. I hope you're all getting excited for launch!

Talk soon,

Katze

I totally overlooked one simple button click on my end that locked the poll to only be avaliable to current backers of the project. But yknow, we're not live. So none of you could vote. I was really confused why the hell no one was voting until it dawned on me tonight.

SO! New poll, same three games, same tiebreaker. This time without the embarrassing screw up.

Please vote for your fave below!

And like, send well wishes to me because I feel like the biggest dummy right now LOL.


Thanks so much,

Katze
