A Kuzo Coin for everyone?!
13 days ago
– Thu, Jun 13, 2024 at 02:34:07 PM
After the last update, it seems that a majority of people would prefer a coin over a pin, and I'm certainly not opposed to that. I'm all in favor of a functional object.
So how do we feel about this yes/no Kuzo coin?
Also, since I couldn't have figured this out without you all, I've decided to upgrade this stretch goal to be included with ALL PLEDGES for a Cerulean Sequence deck. This means the coin will come free along with the free satchel. You'll be able to add extra coins to your pledge during the backer kit shipping surveys.
Thank you all for your feedback, it's much appreciated.
Update on the Abacus Stretch Goal

Hi Everyone!
So I've kind of hit a dead end with the abacus. I got a sample in and it's just not doing it for me. I think a big thing for me is there is no customization on this item, it's also not something directly from the cerulean sequence (besides counting numbers) and it also is too small to be functional.
SO I am thinking about changing this final stretch goal to a custom pin featuring Kuzo who shows up on 9 cards in the deck. I think Kuzo needs a moment to shine as he is an integral part of the sequence.
How do you feel about this change?
This would be included with all pledges for the $111 tier and above, and will also be available as an add-on item when you fill out your shipping surveys.
Kickstarter finished processing the payments this week and we've already gone into production on a few items!
I'll post another update when we send out the shipping surveys. You will need to fill these out in order to get your pledges because we don't have your address yet! These will be sent to your email on file. We are aiming for the end of June to have these out ideally.
THAT'S A WRAP!

Thank you all SO much for being a part of the Cerulean Sequence. We excelled past any expectations I had. Thank you for believing in me and letting me make things the that I am passionate about.
What's Next?
Now that the campaign has ended, Kickstarter will begin charging cards and processing payments. This takes 2 weeks to complete. Please make sure your credit card info is up to date. Kickstarter will make a few attempts at failed card payments before dropping you as a backer.
During this time I will be finalizing the last details of the project and solidifying all item specs. My goal is to go into production on everything by the time payments are processed in mid-June.
The production period can be quite long. We are estimating that we will ship Kickstarter pledges in January 2025, but I am hoping it will be earlier. As there are always unforeseen hiccups with new projects, we cannot guarantee a holiday delivery.
I'll continue to update you all on the progress and I will post an update here when we send out the shipping surveys. We are going to have all the stretch goal items figured out before you fill out your shipping surveys. During the survey, you will have access to adding any campaign items to your pledge as well as visuals for each item.
It'll be quiet for a few days here, but I will likely have an update for you sometime next week!
Thank you again <3
NUMBER ELEVEN? Beyond expectations!

Wow. I didn't think we would make it this far, but the campaign has really grown in the last few days. We have surpassed the final stretch goal at $123,456! My plan was for an abacus but after doing a loooot of research I'm not happy with our options. I'm going to keep looking..but they are all either really big or really tiny. There is a metal keychain version that looks enticing...I am also looking into a blue calculator. Thoughts?
That being said, I won't have this last item set up before the campaign ends tomorrow BUT
The stretch goal item for $123,456 will be included in the $111 tier for free. You can add it as an add-on item when you are filling out your shipping survey later on. I'm not sure of the add-on price at this moment.
If you want to switch to the $111 tier before the campaign ends you can edit your pledge. This tier now has a value of around $136 with all of the free stretch goal items!
If you are new to Kickstarter: once the campaign ends Kickstarter will begin processing payments. They usually try your card once per week, for 2 weeks. If the payment fails they will drop you as a backer so please make sure your payment information is up to date!
You will be getting your shipping surveys via email, likely at some point this summer, maybe late June. I will post an update here as well. Because we email the surveys, we cannot send them to you if you use an Apple ID to login to Kickstarter. Please try to update this to an email address ahead of time, but we will attempt to reach out to you if we are unable to send the survey to you.
Thank you thank you thank you!
I can't wait for the cerulean sequence to enter into the world and into your hands :)
I couldn't do this without you.
ZERO: BLANK SLATE a multiplayer card game and cerulean dice unlocked!

zero. the blank slate. potential for anything to happen.
We're down to the last 2 days of the campaign and anything can happen at this point! We blew past our stretch goal for the cerulean dice! You can now add the dice onto your pledge for $5. The dice are now automatically included in all pledges for the $111 tier and above. This will be a set of three d10 dice to add more to your numerology practice. I am still sourcing the right dice, but they will likely be one of the options here
Back to zero: I haven't talked about this much at all. You probably wouldn't know about it unless you watched one of the unboxing videos, but there is a multiplayer card game I designed for use with this deck. I wanted to do something special with 0. The rules are included in the back of the guidebook that comes with the deck!
Blank Slate is a game of abrupt endings and the play is simple:
Thank you again for being here! While we only have a few days until the campaign ends we may very well hit the $123,456 goal for the abacus. So keep sharing the project with your communities!
