Cinnabunny - A Bunny Baking Game

Update 13: We can do this! 24 hours to go!
8 months ago – Thu, Apr 18, 2024 at 09:04:55 AM

Alright fellow buns, we've had a great campaign so far! We've unlocked some fun stretch goals, voted on a community furniture item, shared some laughs, shared some cries, and toppled a global regime. Well, we did at least some of those things.

This is the last opportunity for us to keep pushing toward the final kiteboarding stretch goal. I'd love to see high-adventure bunnies in game, and I'm sure you would as well, so keep sharing, encouraging people to check out the campaign, and consider upping your pledge with some add-ons to help us reach it! Maybe even purchase an extra game key for a friend?

AHHH I'M SO EXCITED! Thank you all so much for your support! I'll update us again tomorrow sometime after the campaign ends :)

Add-on Reminders:

Update #12: Hang Glider Stretch Goal Achieved!
8 months ago – Mon, Apr 15, 2024 at 10:08:40 AM

Another stretch goal down!

Just like that, Cinnabunny will feature hang gliders in its final product! I don't know about you but I'm quite excited to soar peacefully through the skies, wind in my li'l fluffy tail. This one's going to be quite fun to code!

For our next stretch goal we've got kiteboarding! Cards on the table, I really want us to make this one in particular; adding such a cool mechanic to the game would be super fun for me :) I'm thinking we can get there!

We're almost to the finish line

We have until Friday at noon EST before the Kickstarter closes! That means a mere four full days until the Kickstarter is over. Make sure you swoop up those backer-exclusive add-ons before time runs out and continue to share the love of Cinnabunny across your various social medias and social circles! Thank you so much for all those who have already done so!

Going forward

As a reminder, I will be using Backerkit to manage pledges after the campaign ends. I've never used it before so there may be a slight learning curve but I'll make sure to have full transparency and keep you all updated with timelines as soon as I have them! To my understanding, there is a slight waiting period for the Kickstarter funds to clear before I can send out surveys and ask for information (like discord names, furniture info for those who have designed it, name's you want in the credits, etc.). For those who have selected a Bunhouse steam code, it may be a couple weeks before you receive your reward, but you certainly won't have to wait all the way until the Cinnabunny release before you get it.

As always, if you have any questions, just let me know! I appreciate all of you and am so excited to bring this game to life for you!

Update #11: New Add-on, Project We Love Status, And I Need Your Help!
8 months ago – Thu, Apr 11, 2024 at 09:17:10 AM

One week to go and I need your help!

With only one week left, Cinnabunny is 132% funded, yay! But there are still some awesome stretch goals on the table that I'm sure we'd all love to reach. So, I'm once again asking for your help! If you haven't already, please consider sharing this project with your friends and family. Even if you know they don't play games or if you have already shared it, perhaps you could ask them to share it with their friends and family! If we do this like six times I think we reach everybody in the world which feels like a very realistic and attainable goal.

Cinnabunny is such a wholesome and cute game, I definitely want to give everyone possible the opportunity to get in on the action, as there are exclusive rewards they won't be able to get any other way! Also, as a reminder, Cinnabunny is partnering with For Goodness Cakes, a non-profit that provides cakes to foster kids on their birthdays. So not only do you and your friends/family get a cute baking bunny game, but you also get the satisfaction of knowing that you're responsible for bringing a smile to children who might need it!

New add-on: Iridescent Tools

Sure, we can have an iridescent bun, but why stop there! In Cinnabunny, tools are necessary to help you farm, forage, and even give gifts. This add-on will let you replace all the default tool materials with an iridescent one. Now you can mine, birdwatch, and plant in style!

Project we love

Recently, Cinnabunny was chosen on Kickstarter as a Project We Love. Not only will this increase its visibility in searches but it is also an honor; generally, only the best projects are chosen by the wonderful staff at Kickstarter. So yay!

Thank you for everything and here's to more stretch goals!

Update #10: Furniture Poll Results
8 months ago – Mon, Apr 08, 2024 at 09:15:03 AM

The Results Are In

Looks like the bunny hammock won the vote by a landslide, eclipsing (haha) all other suggestions (wonderful as they were). So, come release, you'll be able to spend your hard-earned carrots on a luxurious bunny hammock in game. Thanks for participating everyone!

Only 5 Custom Bun Slots Left!

That's right! If you know someone who would like their bunny immortalized in a video game, I only have five slots left so make sure they move fast before they're all taken up!

Shoutout

I'm back with another shoutout! Not exactly in the realm of cozy games, but if you're into action-packed platformers, you should check out Atomic Owl! It looks deliciously retro. And who wouldn't want to be an owl samurai? Read more about it below!

Atomic Owl is a pixel art-based single-player, side-scrolling roguelite that combines fast-paced platforming with dynamic hack-and-slash combat and a variety of weapons, powerups, and a demonic blade. Journey through eight roguelite zones, save the Bladewing Troupe, and take up arms against Omega Wing!

Check out their Kickstarter here.

Update #9: Buns with Hats Stretch Goal Achieved! Next Up: Hang Gliders
8 months ago – Thu, Apr 04, 2024 at 07:42:18 AM

Our buns can be so daper now

We have achieved our first stretch goal! Upon release Cinnabunny will now have a clothier whose job is to sell cute hats for your bunny to wear. Their stock will be limited each in-game day, so check back frequently to collect them all! And my oh my, this bun definitely pulls off the beanie look.

Next up: hang gliders

Next up on our stretch goal agenda is hang gliders. Who wouldn't want to be a bun peacefully gliding through some mountainous forest scenery? I know I would! My mind is already percolating with hang glider designs...

Thank you / community goal reminder

As a reminder, voting is still open for the community-picked furniture item. We've already had great participation for backer voting but there are still some buns who haven't yet! I'll announce the winner tomorrow so make sure you get your vote in!

We're halfway through the campaign and 110% funded. Thank you all so much again for your wonderful support. Keep reaching out to friends/family to tell them about Cinnabunny so we can push this thing farther and get more awesome stuff in the game! THANK YOU!
