The Infinity discord server is live!
about 4 years ago – Fri, Jan 14, 2022 at 08:38:33 PM

We’ve got a very brief update today, just to let everyone know that we are now rolling out the Infinity Discord server! As there were two different roles in the server, we will be sending invites out in two stages.

If you pledged for a tier that granted you the “Tester” role, check your inbox, because you should be receiving an email from Incube8 Games containing a link to the server! Be sure to log in as soon as possible, as this link will expire in seven days.

If you pledged for a tier that granted you the “Backer” role, your emails will be going out next Friday, once we’ve had the opportunity to get all of the Testers tagged appropriately.

As well, while the server is new and we're getting the feel for things, we'd love any feedback to ensure that it can run smoothly and provide you with everything you want!

December update!

We wanted to get one more update in before 2021 is officially behind us, so let’s talk about what’s new with Infinity!

To begin, we wanted to take the opportunity to reveal the logo that we will be using for the cartridge! As you might recall, one of the earliest stretch goals was a custom-molded GBC cartridge for the game. Ultimately, we found the standard Infinity logo, which is more square, wouldn’t really produce a great-looking result on the rectangular cartridges. So, we wound up doing a more stylized redesign of the logo specifically for the cartridge mold, so that it would be as aesthetically pleasing as possible. Check it out in the photo below!

In addition, it’s worth quickly mentioning that we’re making good progress in localizing Infinity, as the Japanese 🇯🇵 translation is now complete! French, Spanish, Italian, and German are all on the horizon as well!

Finally, we are happy to announce that the Infinity Discord server will be going live on January 13th! Things are almost ready to go, but we have decided to hold off the launch until January due to the incoming holiday break, when our office will be closed. We want to ensure we have full availability for moderating the server, especially during the initial launch; we wouldn’t want to launch the Discord server, only to be sporadically available in-between holiday happenings while everyone is arriving for the first time and likely eager to talk about Infinity! The link to this Discord server will be getting sent out via BackerKit on January 13th, so keep your eyes open for that!

That about sums up where we are with Infinity. As this will likely be the last update for 2021, we want to wish everyone a happy holiday, and a happy new year! We look forward to bringing you a lot more on Infinity come 2022!

November Update!

It’s been a bit of time since we’ve provided an update! On one hand, we are at the stage where there will naturally be less to share while we work away on the nuts and bolts of Infinity; yet we want to provide you a periodic overview nonetheless, so you can stay up to date on where Infinity stands!

As you’re likely aware by now, the BackerKits have been sent out, and have been completed for the most part. In addition, while the deal has been effectively closed for some time now, the conclusion of the Kickstarter campaign has allowed us to finalize the process, and we are now the official owners of the Infinity IP! Not all the Affinix originals will be getting off easy, however, and are still stuck with us a little while longer to help in completing the game.

In addition, we have started work on planning and purchasing some of the physical materials for the game production, as well as some of the physical backer rewards. While we are naturally still very early in this process, as time goes on and we get a bit closer to proper manufacturing, we should have some glimpses to share here and there.

As for the more immediate future, the focus at this point is getting the Discord server live. We are currently at work on this, and the details of that will likely be the content of our next update, so stay tuned for that!

All that to say, the wheels are starting to turn as we’re shifting from the campaign stage to the development stage, and we’re excited to share our progress with you while Infinity begins to take shape as we progress deeper into that development. In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled for details on the Discord server!

Backerkit updates and Orchestral Fantasy Medley!

 The Orchestral Fantasy Medley 

If you’ve already had a listen to our medley, you probably already know how great the Infinity soundtrack is. If you’re curious to hear another version, however, the Orchestral Fantasy YouTube channel has done their own rendition! There is admittedly some connection, as Infinity sound engineer Mathew Valente also serves as the Orchestral Fantasy video editor… so does that make this cannon? Regardless, if you’re curious to give it a listen, you can find the video below; and if you haven’t given our own arranged medley a listen, be sure to check it out here or below!

Backerkit updates

As well, we’d also like to quickly reiterate that all BackerKit survey links have been sent out at this point, so be sure to check your inboxes for that! Furthermore, there was a small addendum made to that survey worth drawing everyone’s attention to; the size of the art prints were originally listed as 12” x 8”, when the correct size is 12” x 18”. Apologies for any confusion regarding that! 

Backer Kit Coming Soon!
