Stretch Goals

With your help, we can unlock the following additional features:


Frequently Asked Questions
What are the “Kickstarter exclusive*” items?
Every tier contains Kickstarter exclusive rewards, which are items that will not be acquirable after the Kickstarter has ended - neither in game, nor through our giveaways, nor anywhere else. For instance, the Vespen Companion from the Goldsea Pack tier is Kickstarter exclusive and acquirable only through this Kickstarter campaign. However, the Holiday Snowcat from the All the Companions tier is not a KS exclusive Companion and we will continue awarding those to winners of our various giveaways.
What if we want to purchase additional items? Are we limited to a single tier?
Kickstarter does not support the purchase of multiple tiers or addons, however we will be letting anyone who wishes to purchase multiple unlimited tiers or items do so by increasing their pledge amount by however much the cost of that additional tier or item would be. We ask that backers increase their pledge amount for these addons during the Kickstarter campaign so that we can reach our funding goal!
Once the Kickstarter has ended, we will be sending out a Backerkit survey to your email that will review your purchase and allow you to select the additional tiers or addon items you wish to include in your order. Here are the available item addons we will be offering:
- Bracchus Breed Change Item - $15
- Companions, Apparel, and Forum Decors - $5 each
When and how will we receive our rewards if we decide to back the Kickstarter?
All in-game rewards (Companions, Forum Decor, Items, etc.) will be sent through email as a special key code. These codes can be redeemed twice - both during the Beta test and during the final launch of the game. We will send an email to you shortly before the Beta test that will contain the code you can redeem onsite.
Why are some tiers limited?
We’ve set a limit on every Designer tier and tiers that reward a Beta Early Access key. Designer tiers are limited so as not to overload our artist. Beta Early Access keys are limited so that only a set number of players can sign up early for the Beta test and thereby have a lower ID number or reserve a specific username. As such, only 93 Beta Early Access keys will be given through our Kickstarter. Regular Beta keys are unlimited!
Is there a set date for the Beta test or official release of the game?
We have not yet announced the start date for the Beta test or the final release of the game. There is still a lot of work to do before we are ready for the Beta test, but rest assured we will announce these dates well in advance on all of our social media platforms!
Do we get to keep our usernames/accounts after the Beta test?
We plan on deleting all user account assets (such as wolves, items, Companions, Forum Decor, etc.) after the Beta test, however all Beta testers will be able to keep their Usernames and IDs when the final game is launched. This will be beneficial for those who wish to have a lower ID number or who want to reserve a specific username! All rewards purchased through the Kickstarter or Patreon will be re-redeemable during the final launch by using the same redemption code we will send to you via email.
What is the “Choose One Pack reward?“
The Choose One Pack reward is part of the Bracchus Breed and the Beta Early Access tiers and allows you to choose one of the four Packs (Darkspine, Murkwood, Goldsea, or Icerun) and earn all of its rewards. We will send out a survey shortly after the Kickstarter has concluded to all backers of those tiers to request their Pack selection.
How do the Designer tiers work? Why is there a limit on designer revisions?
The three Designer tiers we have included (Item, Apparel, and Companion) allow you to work with our artist to create assets in the game according to your specifications! If you back one of these tiers, you will be contacted directly by Alaunis to begin discussing the creation of your asset. The workflow for designing an asset for Lorwolf will go something like this:
- Initial contact with additional information
- Final asset idea is decided upon
- Alaunis presents 4 sketch ideas for asset, backer chooses 1 sketch idea - first round of edits
- Alaunis presents final sketch idea - second round of edits
- Alaunis presents final lineart - third round of edits
- Backer decides on colors for the two versions of their asset
- Alaunis presents final assets - fourth and final round of edits
- Backer decides on asset names and optional descriptions
We have limited the amount of designer revisions/edits to four rounds so Alaunis has time to work on all backer assets.
