Spend less than 5 minutes completing the survey with answers about your correct contact information, what name you'd like us to say "thank you" to, where you found our campaign, and whether you'd like to join our mailing list.
Add any items you'd like to purchase to your cart in our BackerKit store.
Finalize your order and survey by Wednesday, November 9.
That's it! Easy-peasy, super helpful for us, and the best way to be sure you get all your rewards.
Next Steps
Once we've received all completed surveys (by Wednesday, November 9), we'll put together all digital rewards as quickly as possible. As soon as those go out, we'll place orders for physical items. Once those have arrived, we'll begin start fulfilling your orders!
We really can't wait to get Mr. Guy into your hands, so we'll be acting as quickly as possible between now and then…and we'll keep you updated on every step!
So stay tuned, folks! We'll be back in touch soon!
We're very excited to announce that we'll soon be launching our Destinations Anthology, featuring a whole gaggle of amazing, diverse creators from around the world. We'd love it if you'd follow the project now, so you'll be the first to know when we launch these 17 short comics about arrivals, endings, and the journeys that brought them there.
And, while you wait for the Destinations Anthology to launch, one of its amazing creators, Kamilla Sims, is featured in another anthology that's funding rightnow!
Fairytales From Mars is an anthology collecting the fables, folklore and, of course, fairytales from the colonies dotting the red planet. It is speculative mythology at its finest and we’re challenging creators to imagine the kind of stories that might emerge when humanity finally starts calling Mars its home. Early children’s stories were morality tales designed to warn against the dangers of their environment, impart a moral lesson, or explain the unexplainable. These stories are handed down from generation to generation and life on Mars will be no different.
Holy Smoke Test, Mr. Guy!

Hey there, Mr. Guy fam!
We're thrilled to report that funds from the Mr. Guy: Acts 1 & 2 campaign have landed in our account, and we are starting to send out surveys today!
First Up: The Smoke Test
We're using BackerKit, a third-party fulfillment aid, to send out surveys. Their system allows for us to send out a smoke test—a small portion of surveys—48 hours ahead of the rest.
That way, we can identify and work out any bugs in our survey system.
That means that just a few of you will get your surveys in the next two days. It would be fabulous if you could complete them (it only takes a few minutes, we promise!) and get them turned in quickly, so we can discover if we need to fix anything up!
Wednesday: All Surveys Out
Once the smoke test wraps up on Wednesday, October 26, we will send out the rest of the surveys to all our amazing backers!
You'll have two weeks to complete your surveys before we finalize our thank-you page on the website and in our comic…and then we're placing orders for the printed comic!
That means you can expect your survey between now and end of day October 26, and we'll need it back from you by end of day on Wednesday, November 9!
What's In a Survey?
Backer surveys are one of the most important parts of the Kickstarter experience!
Surveys only take about three minutes, and your answers are kept 100% confidential using BackerKit's vault-like security.
They help us finalize our item counts, make sure we've got the correct address to send your rewards to, and offer you the opportunity to grab any additional items you like from our BackerKit store!
Add-On Store
If there was an item in the Mr. Guy campaign that you wanted but didn't add to your cart on Kickstarter, now's your chance! Original art by James Groeling, beautiful art prints, commissions by Jayel Draco, minifigs, and more will all be available.
Plus, you'll have access to all of Oneshi Press's other comics, books, theme songs, and merch from other projects and series, like PACK, Tracy Queen, Children of Gaia, and more!
So take a look around when you've finished your survey and add on whatever you'd like!
That's it for now! We'll let you know when most surveys have been sent later this week.
DREAMQUEST is a complete, done-in-one tale that expands on Lovecraft's Dream Cycle--imagine Re-Animator meets Dream Warriors.
Between 1918 and 1932, HP Lovecraft wrote a series of stories set in the "Dreamlands." Several of the stories focus on the character of Randolph Carter, who's loosely based on Lovecraft himself. At the end of the Dream Cycle, Randolph has disappeared into the Dreamlands and is desperately trying to return home.
Our story starts with a brand new character of our own invention, Margo Carter, as she is contacted by Randolph in her dreams.

Hello, lovely Mr. Guy fan!
It's a new week! After a weekend spent celebrating the success of Mr. Guy: Zombie Hunter, we got to work preparing our BackerKit Preorder store!
It's live right now, so if you have any friends or fam who missed the campaign but want to get in on the sweet rewards you grabbed, you can just tell them to…
If you did back the campaign, you'll be able to order any item you like when you fill out your survey in a few weeks!
Any item…including our brand-new, just-unlocked…
TarMucks: Xtra Dark Roast Coffee
When zombie apocalypse came to Dearth, things got dark—Xtra Dark.
That’s why Mr. Guy: Zombie Hunter teamed up with TarMucks Corporate Coffee to make this most apocalyptic of brews.
Sit back with a cup of flavor that’s surprisingly mellow. Because, if you’re going to face down a horde of the un-dead, you might as well enjoy getting caffeinated, first.
TarMucks: Xtra Dark will be available ONLY through our Mr. Guy: Zombie Hunter preorder store and backer surveys, so rev your engines…It'll be yours soon!
Our pal Ryan Claytor is a cartoonist, a professor, and, apparently, a doodler! He's created a book of mirrored drawings that we absolutely love, and we think you'll be interested to see not only what's inside, but also how Oneshi Press inspired his vision for this campaign, too…
MirrorDrawings is an interactive, meditative, art book of Ryan Claytor's mirrored illustrations.
"Creating these drawings was restorative, weird, and FUN, but my hope is they'll provide a similar experience for YOU TOO! My plan is to print this book on high-quality uncoated paper so that YOU can COLOR them! Or if you'd rather, just allow their odd qualities to wash over you in glorious printed (or digital) form."
Thank You + Giveaways + What's Next

Hot diggity dawg, Mr. Guy backer!
We did it! Thank you times approximately one zillion for supporting Mr. Guy: Zombie Hunter and bringing this campaign to a successful close.
In the final hours of the campaign, we funded fully, then the progress kept rolling!
By the time the campaign ended, we were 111% funded by 111 backers! Wild, right?
That means 111 trees planted…one for every backer! We'll let you know when those trees go into the ground.
In the meantime, a few announcements!

Ryan Claytor
Alena Crosswhite
Jacey Chase
We'll package these extra comics with your rewards and send them along to each of you!
What Happens Next
Now that the campaign has ended, here's a breakdown of next steps for all of us!
Kickstarter has already started charging credit cards for pledges and add-ons. They will continue to work on charging cards for the next two weeks, so if anyone needs to update their credit card information, they should be receiving communications from Kickstarter about that.
We'll get our BackerKit preorder store up as quickly as we can for anyone who'd like make an after-the-fact pledge to the campaign or stock up on add-ons. As soon as that's up and running, we'll let you know!
In about two to three weeks, we'll receive funds from Kickstarter. At that time, we'll send out backer surveys to all of our backers! We'll need those surveys completed within two weeks so that we can nail down final counts for all the items we need to have created.
A few weeks after surveys are completed, we'll order all physical rewards, and start sending out digital rewards!
Fulfillment will begin as soon as we have physical rewards in hand.
We will keep you informed every step of the way, so you'll always know what's happening!
We are always available to answer any questions, address any problems, or just say hi! Feel free to leave comments on updates, send us direct messages via Kickstarter, or write to us at [email protected].
Thanks again, times a bazillion, for being here for Mr. Guy and saving the world from zombies!
