Just 3 weeks out from FunDaMental Games next Kickstarter, a little game called Questeros. In this personal Sidequest episode I speak about the concept and marketing strategies of the game, some of the challenges we must overcome, and the methodology on when to send games out to previewers. Also beginning my first journey with a planned pledge manager, a commitment I have not done with any prior campaigns.
