Hudson's Bunny Quest Kickstarter campaign is now complete and more than fully funded at $1,395 (his goal was $1,200). Yesterday he published this update on Kickstarter. Huge thanks from all of us to all our friends and everyone else who gave such wonderful support to Hudson.  He has worked so hard and he knows a lot of work lies ahead...and we have to make sure that his computer time/schoolwork/healthy life balance is a good one! Thank you all! Alexander + Hudson

Hudson just posted this update to his Kickstarter campaign for his retro video puzzle game, Bunny Quest - there are actually less than 38 hours to go! Less than 48 hours to go! Hi, there's less than 48 hours to go until my Bunny Quest Kickstarter ends! I'm so happy I made my goal but if you have any friends who'd like to pledge, too, that would be awesome. I am going to have additional music licensing fees and other costs down the line. But I'm so excited. Thank you! And in case you're wondering, this is a picture of our oldest pet, eight year old Mr. Bunny, who was definitely part of the inspiration for Bunny Quest. Thank you everyone!  Hudson You can pledge to Bunny Quest at: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/arcadez/bunny-quest Below is the Bunny Board Game that Hudson helped create when he was four years old, and which is also part of the inspiratio...

This morning he reached his Bunny Quest Kickstarter target of $1200 (and more) with 9 days to go.  Many many thanks to all his backers, including the most recent Andrew Hale and Peter Hayes, for being so generous and for putting your faith in Hudson. He has already worked incredibly hard on this project and will continue to do so.  He's hoping people will continue to give to the Kickstarter campaign , to give him extra funding to make sure he can develop the game over all platforms. This game is also part of a longer plan Hudson has for other games, books and adventures.  A million thanks from Hudson and us all πŸ˜ƒ (We will publish a full list of backers and thank you all when the Kickstarter campaign ends.)
