Hi there! We have some exciting news for you: Our post-Campaign surveys are coming and we have an update on the face masks!
On the Survey-
Soon you’ll receive an email from us with a link to your survey, once again we are using the BackerKit platform to send them out. It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as possible since we need the information to fulfil your rewards.
You don’t need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey. When you receive the email with the survey, click the survey link to respond. Answer the questions about your reward preferences, provide shipping information, and purchase add-on items if you like. You don’t have access to this survey link yet, but it will be available soon via email, so please keep an eye out for it!
After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change your responses at any time before we close the surveys and get our final counts. You will have until November 27th to send in your answers.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://nani.backerkit.com
If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey is sent to the email address you use for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you prefer to use, please contact support at https://nani.backerkit.com/faq or if you prefer to email us at [email protected]
On the Face Masks-
As you may have seen in one of our last updates, we have partnered up with Protect-But-Make-It-Fashion to create an exclusive Kugali face mask. This was meant to be our 50k Stretch Goal reward but we have decided to add it as part of the highest pledge tiers. So, if you have pledged £ 70 or more, then a face mask will be included in your rewards. These face masks will also be available as add-ons for all our backers and will be limited edition so make sure you grab one while you can!

Some news, and some new projects!

Hello!
Everything is tick-tocking along nicely in the land of Kugali. The colouring is underway and we're beginning to see a few almost-finished pages... which shall remain top-secret for now! All we can say is they are looking GREAT! Our art team are really out-doing themselves!
While we're here, there are two other Kickstarters that we'd like to recommend to you all, just because we dig what they're putting out!
First up is CHAYOMA: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/143731740/chayoma-curse-of-the-jangura-1-2-and-3?ref=discovery&term=chayoma
CHAYOMA is a true African epic, with all the fantasy and action you could hope for. It tells a story of a girl born with special abilities, but who was coerced into evil by the political deceptions of her own people's ruling class. She must go through several events to understand the gravity of her purpose while a very dangerous plan is about to befall all of the Kitara kingdoms of East Africa. A perfect compliment to NANI on your bookshelf!
The next project we want to flag is a little comic called 'The Analyst', and it's by one of our amazing backers - who even worked on the video game 'Life is Strange'! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alteredgene/the-analyst-redacted?ref=e4d60h
THE ANALYST: REDACTED is a one-shot, stylised comic in a shared video game universe with a few other projects... It's full of mystery and intrigue, and is set in an interview room, recounting past events. Pretty gripping stuff!
Check out these great projects, and stay tuned for more news! Also, have some WiP - I said I wouldn't show you, but it's far too hard to resist! Oooooh, mysterious!
LAST CHANCE! If you've been sat on the fence, now is the time!

Hello friends!
We are officially into the FINAL 24 HOURS of the campaign! I know lots of you will have been debating a pledge, or might have been thinking about upgrading to a hardback edition... Well, now is the time!
Some of you had noticed that we'd almost sold out of the hardback copies - well, we've managed to add another 50 Hardback bundles so that no one misses out!
With all this said, it's time to issue one final thank you... We're close to our next stretch goal, the custom Kugali facemasks, and from the questions we've been getting it's pretty clear that people like this idea a lot! The support has been so wonderful from this entire community of people that in order to thank you properly, we've decided to offer them as add-ons whether we hit the goal or not (though the closer we get, the better, as these will be well under market value!)!
If you want one, you don't have to do anything until the campaign is over. We'll give you the option to add £10 to your pledge - if you do, we'll add in a custom facemask to your order!
Thanks so much once more, and we'll see you on the other side! Kugali out!
FINAL STRETCH GOALS, and THE LAST PUSH!

We are officially in the final 72 hours of our campaign, and it's been a wild ride so far... but it isn't over yet! We're entering the last few days now, and we need as many people to see this as possible in order to help us make the best product possible, for you. Please share the campaign, retweet us on twitter, tell your friends, do whatever you can to get Nani (and every other African creator you know) in front of the audience that our cultural stories deserve.

We've also updated our next two stretch goals! If we hit 50k, we'll be including custom-made Kugali facemasks, and if we hit 60k we'll be including special Nanka socks - the Nanka, by the way, is that friendly little croco-giraffe looking fellow from the comics! Since we're all about supporting African creators, all of these extra goals will be made by African-owned companies and creatives!
Thank you all once more for all your help in getting this far - we're getting ready to start issuing rewards, so not long now! Exciting stuff!
FUNDED! Stretch goal one!

Well, you did it.
Nani Volume 2 is officially happening, and we couldn't be happier. By sheer chance it's also Ziki's birthday, so you've really given him the best present possible! Still, we're only a day into the campaign so the hard work is far from over, but at least our marketing guy can stop worrying about it and get some sleep!
Over the next few days we'll be revealing some more of our stretch goals and planning out some new ways for this project to reach its full potential. We'll try to keep the updates quick and informative, and should have some more news by Monday!
Not only has the project been funded, but while we were preparing this update you broke through the first stretch goal and unlocked Nani bookmarks for all physical backers! Once again, words of gratitude don't seem like they really say how happy you've made us, but we'll say them anyway.
Truly, from our collective Kugali heart: thank you.
