Why isn't this physical?
Making a physical game is also very expensive and unfortunately doesn’t solve the problem of finding people to play with. Starting with a digital version allows us to bring Doomtrooper back to a larger audience with a large player base. If successful, we can investigate physical options in the future.

What is the green "stamp" logo from?
In the Doomtrooper World Championship Tournament (late 90’s/early 2000s) they used a real stamp to stamp everyone’s cards to prevent cheating. We found the stamp and recreated it as a symbol of the resurrection of Doomtrooper!

Why only 15k? That seems low for a game....
It is definitely low! This project may be unlike most of the other games you’ve pledged. As fans of the series, this has been a passion project of Justin and Steve (Secret Cow Level) for the past 2 years. The game was designed to be built in stages, starting with a solid core foundation of gameplay and leading up to all the additional features and bells and whistles. So we’re looking for a smaller amount just to help us finish that foundation so we can all play this great game again. The more we raise above our goal, the faster we can get more fun features in for everybody :)

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
