First Stretch Goal Achieved!
over 5 years ago
– Wed, Aug 01, 2018 at 11:39:24 PM
Your support, along with the help of over 1,000 people, has helped us achieve the first stretch goal! Thank you!! What that means is that everyone is getting a stand for each character skin to keep them looking fresh and display nicely.
NEW STRETCH GOAL - $200.000 Let’s keep it going! Our next stretch goal is at $200,000. We have a little over a week to achieve this and it’s totally doable! If every one of our backers gets just one friend to purchase, then everyone will benefit and get even more awesome items with their Storyball! Once we reach $200,000, everyone will get a travel bag.
The travel bag will help you keep Storyball with you at all times, even when on-the-go. It is machine washable and wipeable so it’s easy to clean. The bag conveniently fits anywhere, you can pack the bag in your suitcase or clip it onto any backpack for easy travel. It will hold one Storyball+skin, 2 extra skins, and a charging cord.
We are so proud to say that we were featured on Mashable, a great tech website! It means so much to us to see the article and support! Check it out HERE!
Also, we want to keep the Kickstarter love going, so here are a few more Kickstarter campaigns that we think you would like to check out.
Spyra One: The Next Generation of Water Guns
Spyra One takes water fights to the next level. It shoots water bullets that leave clear hits instead of shooting a single, soaking stream. The tank auto-refills itself (yes: no more pumping!). And the digital display gives you full control over your tank status. So take Spyra One to a party. Or a barbecue. Or a boat trip. Become part of the revolution – and have fun! BACK NOW

Dear Backers,
We’re still going strong, thanks to you!
We've reached 200% funding and are moving forward towards our stretch goal of $100K! It is incredible to get such overwhelming support - thank you, everyone, for helping and supporting. We don’t take it for granted.
Since you are now part of the Storyball community, we want you to know more about who we are and how we got together. We started working on Storyball in 2015 - three childhood friends looking at how technology and play could work together to assist rehabilitation and physiotherapy for young patients. As parents of young children, we recognized the potential in a smart, screen-free experience and decided to create something we would want our children to have and play with.
And we’re not the only ones who are enthusiastic about Storyball. We are proud to announce that we’ve been featured on BackerClub.co!
BackerClub is an exclusive club for people who love Kickstarter and back a ton of projects. BackerClub featured our campaign in the Club this week. We're thrilled about it and hope you like it too!
Storyball is also mentioned in the media. Here’s a glimpse of some of the places where you can find us:
