WE DID IT!

Posted by YakovlevArt - February 16th, 2015


To all my fans and followers, and really anyone who gets a chance to read this.

A couple months ago I was given the incredible opportunity to be the only artist for a board game called Entropy. It was a lot of fun and a lot hard work. In many ways, I became stonger in what what used to be my areas of weakness. Earlier this month, I posted some of the art from the game. You guys are the best community when it comes to supporting a creator. I feel like I'm part of a family sometimes. I will continue to post my best work because I believe what makes NG so prime is that everyone only posts their best work. We really want to grow and impress eachother. With this recent project, I would be lying if I didn't say you guys didn't help. NG was one of the first places I started posting my art. After so many great reviews and PM's, I got the courage to post elsewhere and eventually landed this gig. Those of you who know me, know I don't ask for money or favors in exchange for things. I like to treat my fans in an honest way. I don't like to ask for help, but becasue I know how supportive you are on my work, I think you'll appreciate this game.

A month is a long time for a project to get funded, and even after that, it takes time before the backer actually gets the product. But if you still remember this me(& this post) when you get the game, I would love to send you a little personal sketch or sign your copy of the game. I know it's not easy to set this up, but I want to thank each of you in some way :P Maybe send me a screencap of you backing it and I'll whip up a digital sketch and PM it to ya!

Like I said, I'm not the type to ask for trades or make deals to get something out of you. So I'm no good at offering something in exchnage for support. I just know from experinece, I have some dedicated followers and fans that love my work.

Anyway, thanks for all the love and support you give on almost a daily basis. I will continue to post my best content, even a few more pieces from the game itself.
Here's a link to the Kickstarter. If you back it, you can comment and hang out with all the devs including myself. Or you can comment below and hang out there. Maybe give some ideas on how I can thank you each, I dunno...lol.

Anyways, thanks a lot to everyone!
-Mike

TL;DR: I made all the art on a Kickstarter project now live, please support it if you can!

Congrats on the opportunity man! I'll definitely donate some money on Kickstarter. I think a little sketch is a good enough thank you gift for fans. You post fantastic art regularly here on NG so that's already a great gift.

Damn, that's so nice to hear! Glad to hear you're pitching in. Even a dollar is good enough. Just knowing people are responding to it and are supportive is all I can ask!
And yeah, I'll be sure to make a little something ans send it to ya :)

Watching this walk through, this game actually looks pretty cool! Simple but there's a lot of strategy. :)

You got it!
It can be as easy or hard as you're willing to make it. Also, it can be a lot of fun with everybody trying to 'get' each other. Makes for some really tense moments ;)
