UPDATE:
Hello DC fans!
Due to the technical issues with the Kickstarter, we have to postpone the launch of the campaign. It should be resolved in a few working days - we'll state the exact date (day and hour) as soon as will get the information from Kickstarter.
We're sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience!

Ahoy fearless captains!

Today we come back to you with the long-promised information about the Deadliest Catch: The Game Kickstarter Campaign. As we’ve told you in the last announcement, we have decided to go on Kickstarter, in order to gather funds for additional in-game features - foremost the crew management, that you strongly rooted for. It took us some time to prepare for the campaign and estimate what can we actually do with additional funds and within the time we have for finishing the project.

That being said, we can announce, that the Kickstarter Campaign will launch on June 7th 2019. You can see the campaign page (be aware it’s still in development!) here: . Don’t forget to check the notification icon on top!



As we promised, the main goal of the campaign will be implementing the crew management mechanics in its basic form. When you’ll hire a crewman, you’ll be able to assign him to a chosen task on deck - for example setting the pots or sorting the caught crabs. As he’ll keep performing the given task, he’ll get better at his job, doing it faster and more efficient. Additionally, when the crewman will be free for the moment, he’ll perform secondary actions, like preparing the bait or repairing the equipment.

We have some additional features planned from the start, so they make a place in the stretch-goal list. Among them you can find improvement of the crew management mechanics (f.e. the crewmen will get tired as they work on deck) or equipment upgrades. We’ve also included one of the big features that you were oftenly asking about - the multiplayer mode! :)



As for the campaign rewards, we’ve prepared multiple options for you. From getting copy of the game at a better price, through access to beta-tests and digital posters, to exclusive rewards like placing hidden objects in the game or naming a captain after you - we’ve got you covered. In any case, look out for the limited early-bird (or in our case, the early-crab) rewards, cause you’ll be able to get a sweet deal out of them.

We hope that you are as hyped for this campaign as we are - please share the good news with your friends and if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask them here! :)
