Me! But I will stick to the original schedule. At least for now.

I delayed a Kickstarter until now so I can budget with a bit more certainty. 😐

Hey Chase, I actually reached out to Lin about this and was forwarded to you!
Would love to talk. I am being destroyed by these tariffs as a publisher who is literally in the middle of ocean freight right now.

I'm a game store, so maybe not your target, but already seeing prices rising on products, and discussions about shipping fee increases on not-yet-shipped Kickstarter campaigns.

@ehronlime.bsky.social @mossdaggar.bsky.social because you two responded directly to me earlier

@ezeekat.bsky.social Do you know of anyone?

For a new team like us. It will be really hard to even get new product and new business into the US. I would expect it wont effect project timeline, but will effect US customers getting product (either due to time or cost)

I know that a lot of Australian game designers are really unsure about the future with regards to the uncertainty of how US policy is going to disrupt the industry and trade generally.

Like you can't accurately estimate shipping to the US for future kickstarters right now (for example.)

Slowly pushing through the process towards a Kickstarter launch for our game Fae Village, hoping by the time we go to print, Trump's idiotic tariffs on China will be gone/lower/manageable.

While I might not count, as a solo dev that has been slowly working on their project for a few years, and just recently started to look into how people do the pricing and costs of things the past few months, feeling like I'll need to wait a few years to consider trying to Kickstarter anything now.
