    [​IMG]Jeff Gracia of Greenbrier Games announces on the Kickstarter page for Zpocalypse: Survival that he has cancelled funding, and will relaunch the Kickstarter again.

    Cancel & Re-launch
    We want to thank you all so much for your wonderful support and your belief in what we are trying to accomplish with this game. While things are slowly progressing towards our goal, we have had amazing support from all of you. It is gratifying and humbling to hear all of your feedback, suggestions and wishes for this game and we are so grateful to have an awesome group of backers willing to give us their time and collective hours of gaming experience. Despite both ours and your heroic efforts, we are concerned that we won't make our goal and so after much internal deliberation and hearing the input from many of you we have decided that the best course of action is to cancel this current campaign re-work our goals, the initial features, our rewards structure and the general layout of the campaign. We will then re-launch the campaign around the end of June or beginning of July and come back even stronger!

    Of course, this is a hard decision because it is a possibility that we hit our initial funding goal in the last hours of the campaign. However, with problems we have identified and the great amount of feedback and requests from you we feel that it would be a disservice not to re-work this to make it even better and provide all of our wonderful backers with more of what you are looking for. As such, the plan is to continue working on the game and once we get it much closer to a true alpha state and less of the pre-alpha state it is in currently we can re-launch the campaign.

    We sincerely hope that in that interim all of you, our earliest supporters, will consider joining us on our forums and continue to provide your feedback on our progress and help us make the re-launch Kickstarter as great as it can be. I, Shawn, will personally make sure that those who stick with us through this process and choose to show their ongoing support on the re-launch will be rewarded for their continued help. I don't know what that will be now, but that is even something we can discuss in depth as a community while we move forward. Our goal is to bring a lot of the big decisions for the re-launch to all of our backers and collect your input so we can make the best decisions together.

    We are making this game not only because we want to see a great post-nuclear, squad based, rogue-lite game with lots of zombie mayhem but because we also believe we can make something great for our community, our supporters, and anyone else who plays the game. Our Team Lead, Shawn, will continue to monitor the Kickstarter for comments, the forums, and Steam while the rest of the digital team remains hard at work continuing to develop the project and get it further along. This way we can show you more of what we want to achieve in the final product. Additionally, we will be diligently working to get more press for the game and continue to build a community with our awesome supporters who we are so thankful to have.

    With all of that said, please head over to our forums and register an account and join in on the discussions moving forward! Once you register send us a message here with your account name so we can give you the appropriate access and a special rank on the forums. We will do a lot of communication via the forums. However, we will also be sure to send out important news via Kickstarter so that everyone is aware of where things are headed!​
