I'm considering all the feedback on the business model of expansions, btw. Just not a lot to say since we are so early in the process of trying to get a game going

FYI, you don't need to do Max Kahuna every milestone. Max Kahuna includes ALL rewards in the future of all perks (up to and including playable mockup), but not the rewards for the KS or after.
I'm hugely touched by the support you've all shown. I'll be posting an update by tomorrow on how the fundraising is going and our plans. But for now, THANK YOU!!!!

The difference between a mini-expansion and a kickstarter for an expansion is that in a mini-expansion, the company takes the risk. They fund the development then sell it. A KS for mini-expansions shift the burden of risk to the players.
The free-er I make the game, the more you will have to deal with in-store F2P style mechanics to make up the money. I am more loath to go that route than I am a expansion approach. So, to me it is the lesser of two evils.
Gamers have been comfortable with expansions for decades, well before F2P. I guess its a model I'm comfortable with too.

Greetings Reapers,
Right now Milestone 2 is breaking records and exceeding our expectations. This community is one of a kind and the Ember team couldn't be happier. But let us not forget about milestone 1 and the ever-so-awesome backer rewards that came with it. I know what I did with mine, I'm quite curious about what everybody else did with theirs.
can you say eye candy?
Sure ya can!
So, my friends, let's show off that swag!
