Wow this project is cool and this would be my first time supporting a game project. I will do my best in supporting this project because I am also a gamer. It would be fun to support this project and I can see that this project will soar in ico.
You are basically paid to say this. Which is immoral and also standard practice here.

A few planned features were delayed and changes to the development roadmap happened, as is common with software projects. The main feature - single player campaigns - will be released before August 1st with a ton of content. As you might have read on the token page, SF Kickstarter backers will also be getting free ShadowTokens for their past support. We've always taken care of our customers and I'm sure the new team will continue to do so.
No, it was not a success.
First, it was on the brink of failing (not getting enough cash).
This can be seen here:
https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/wulven/shadow-era-shattered-fates-cross-platform-card-gam/It is highly unusual for a kickstarter to get so much money in the last few days.
There is an explanation for this:
1) A thread on the forum was created to gather ideas how to make it more enticing. These things were added to the Kickstarter promises (especially but not exclusive to the stretch goals). Knowing that they couldn't be done without employees.
2) Gondorian (the most enthusiastic forum member who also spent most on the physical cards and to this day struggles with selling them off) spent a lot of money on it. And a TCG shop that acted as a third party reseller of shadow era physical cards did the same (who regretted this shortly after, when NAME REMOVED accused them of not delivering orders because of a warehouse transfer (this might be slightly incorrect since it's been a long time). possibly more from family members but that is pure speculation on my side.
The new set was not released on time. Absolutely false. And it took a year to populate the cards with art.
This is what cards looked like:

Right when the Kickstarter ended he paid his sister and her husband for community management, logistics and email support. (They have removed all traces of this from their linkedin pages, I probably still have it saved somewhere but not sure.) Unacceptable. The temporary Company dissolved.
Tip of the iceberg again.
Please stop using the words we and ours.
