The Lemonade Stand Just Beat the Bake Sale

Posted by Kim on September 1, 2023, 3:50pm

When we broke through Goal #2, I said that if we meet or exceed the total raised by the 2019 bake sale, I would immediately design and release a new character style based on the requests in this thread.

Back in 2019, the Bake Sale raised a final total of $13,715. And guess what? The Lemonade Stand total just strolled past and currently stands at $13,777!

So, I'm firing up my official character style creator... :D

And to top it off, I'm placing an order for some Zebra Hippocampus stickers -- I said that was something we'd have to wait until we hit goal #3, where new backer rewards get added, but heck, I'm just too happy. :) And there's plenty of other backer rewards I can offer to entice you with if we do manage to break the Lemonade Stand's goal #3 as well! Sticker sheets with the cappuccino designs on them, T-shirts, posters, fully custom avatars, getting to dictate the next official character style to be released, and more are on the table! :D


Goal 1: $5,000

Getting started: Help me carve out some thinking space to get past blockers. I'll spend the time making crucial choices for project decision points that have been keeping me from continuing.

Goal 2: $10,000

Solid foundation: Gain me about 3 months of focus time on maps & avatars. This will accelerate the project nicely.

Goal 3: $15,000

Pulling ahead: Adding some breathing room to that 3 months to get more done.

New backer rewards added.



The final day of the fundraiser is September 5th, and it looks like we're going to finish strong!

This is so awesome!! Also, can I just say, I'm really glad I can buy spoons. I kinda have a spoon obsession. Lol now I get some for my page on one of my favorite sites! XD
