An exciting announcement and an excuse

Hi fellow feline fans,

we have an exciting announcement for you:

In exactly one week, on May 15th, our first game will be launched on Kickstarter. We are creating a whole new gaming genre by introducing the first mobile NFC card game of the world. That means, it is a game with physical cards, each containing an NFC-chip. These playing cards communicate with your smartphone via Near Field Communication. The combination of real playing cards and smartphone app enabled us to create this patented, one of a kind gameplay.

Now you surely ask: "Why is this the first game? What is with Konrad the Kitten?"

The truth is: Konrad the Kitten was always our second game. We started working on the cute little kitten last year. (In the beginning it was a personal project I created for my girlfriend, then I could convince my boss to make it become a real game.)

Our first game is "FusionPlay - Heroes", which is in the making since 2012. It took until 2016 that all work was done and a partner was found, that is capable of producing the NFC cards at an affordable price tag. Now the time has come, that we start a revolution in the world of card games.

If you want to know more about the game, you can find pictures and information here:

Now some words of excuse:
Although the "FusionPlay - Heroes" team is a separate team and nearly all of the game design work on it has been done before Konrad the Kitten, my support for the Kickstarter Campaign was needed and took much more time than I expected. Originally it was never planned to release "FusionPlay - Heroes" during the Early Access phase of Konrad the Kitten. But sometimes things just don't work as they were planned.

Because of that we need to postpone the next "Konrad the Kitten" release by about a month. I hope you will understand and won't be too angry about me. But be assured: delaying it won't sacrifice any of the planned features. We even enlarged the 0.5 release and added one important new thing: a new kitten :)

Kind regards,
Konrad
