The Perfect Moment is live on Kickstarter! Here are your discount details.
🕑 Added 2018-11-07 14:27:08 +0000 UTC Sorry for the brief post, as this one is timely (haha, sorry again for the bad wordplay) but here's a quick update on things before we talk about The Perfect Moment.July and August packages have been shipping. I believe there is a portion that are still working their way out this weekend. We will post a form link next week for anyone that hasn't received theirs. On this form link will also be a section for those of you that received your first package without the starter package. Those went out earlier than planned, and the starters will go out separately. Keep an eye here for the form.
September and October are next. We start assembling them on Tuesday and start shipping immediately after. The wallet games for both are still lingering here, so $20 level packages may go out without the wallets, with the wallets following later. I will let everyone know before we start shipping if that's the case. I just don't want to hold them any longer than we have to.
T-Shirts are usually sent in batches. I'm going to try to have the next round of T-Shirts out in the November packages. I"ll post an update here when that's ready as well.
And we need to tease the December packages in the next update as well. Lots to do here and we're pushing forward. We just settled in our new office space and things are looking very positive now that we're out of my cramped house.
Lastly, there are a bunch of new items in the PNP folder. Lots of Banned Books and Dsyx. Check it out here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4i4xnkhw1kakdjj/AADgomR_xfZNYCPFjO7UxvBNa?dl=0
Onto The Perfect Moment
Suddenly, a portal opens up and someone walks through it - not just anyone, but you. Before you can say anything, the other you says, “Shut up and listen. This is a time machine. You know what you have to do.” As you are handed the machine, your mind immediately goes back to that one event that you always wished that you could have changed.
This is your chance to change it. You see on the readout that the machine is already primed to go to the exact date and time that you were thinking of. As you press the activate button, the other you says, “Don’t screw it up like I did.”
In The Perfect Moment, players are racing to rewrite history in their favor using a deck of only 18 cards. Each player will have two double-sided equipment cards in play at a time. You can use the ability of any piece of equipment facing you, so that card your opponent just equipped might be the key to your next turn! Additionally, you'll have one card in your hand, called a revision, that you may score at the end of your turn. Finally, there is a paradox card in play that both you and your opponent may use for its ability, or score.
Mike Mullins (Bottom of the Ninth, Pentaquark, Circle The Wagons: Lone Cowboy) designed a tricky little solo ruleset for The Perfect Moment, called Echoes.
Trying to change the past is not without consequences. Your travels are creating echoes in spacetime, and threatening unwind all of reality! You must complete your objectives before these echoes tear everything apart.

I’m adding the playmat to my list of things to figure out ASAP. The list is long though!
Todd Ellis
That's fine! I ordered the cards - I'll keep dreaming about the playmat! Thanks!
Matthew Mitchell
Hey Todd! You can order the oversized Campaign cards through the website. Link: <a href="https://buttonshygames.com/products/oversized-twin-stars-scenarios?variant=13127204143148" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://buttonshygames.com/products/oversized-twin-stars-scenarios?variant=13127204143148</a> We do not have the playmat listed on the site yet.
Todd Ellis
Matthew, has there been any update with this? I was also wanting to order the oversized TS scenario cards, and I was thinking it could be easier to ship it all together.
Matthew Mitchell
These should be shipping out this week. Check your email the next few days for a shipping notification and tracking. =)
Lyle Freijo
Thank you.
Matthew Mitchell
Fill out this form Lyle for July/August issues. =) <a href="https://goo.gl/forms/iyIGehBtbMJ75BVh2" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://goo.gl/forms/iyIGehBtbMJ75BVh2</a>
Lyle Freijo
That’s fine. I just want to make sure that I wasn’t forgotten. I trust you guys and I know it will come so focus on making more great games and I will be pleasantly surprised whenever it shows. Thanks for the quick response.
Matthew Mitchell
Hey Lyle! I'm in the same boat! Here's what Jason has told me: The July/August packages are not all sent. They were trying to do it while moving and it didn't work out too well. So he knows there are outstanding issues with it. For September, he said he didn't want to wait until 1) July/Aug was fixed or 2) Until Liberation was done. So he sent out all September packages without the wallet games. The wallet games will come with the October package. In the mean time, he will be making a form for July/Aug supporters to fill out, but he is just getting back from Pax U this last weekend. I'd expect to hear something more either this week or next.
Lyle Freijo
Hey guys. I received my September package without the feature game which is fine since I’m sure it’s coming. The weird thing is that I have received July or August yet. I’m sure it’s just an over look but wanted to point it out so we can fix it.
Oddvar Lovaas
I'm interested in the same!
Matthew Mitchell
Jason said yes there is a way, he just hasn't built it yet. xD I'll keep you posted if I hear anything else.
Todd Ellis
Jason, I’ve been so busy that I missed the Kickstarter. I’d love to still get the play mat though. Is there a way I can make that happen with my BGOTM membership?
Kevin Wongso
Will you be posting an update to let us know once the finalized PNP with the expansion hits the game folder? I'm worried about making a version of the game that is out-of-date, or missing the expansion file cause I forget to check the folder. Thanks!
Button Shy
You will get the full PNP with expansion and nice rules here. :)
Button Shy
Hi Katherine - these include the $2 US shipping. $7 is correct. Sorry for the confusion.
Katherine Parkhurst
The pledge levels on Kickstarter don't seem to match the what is listed here. Should I pledge $5 (for a $10 patron at the $10 kickstarter level) or $7 as listed in this post?
Katherine Parkhurst
Hi,
Rich Steed
It says that the full PNP is available for free but what about the expansion - do we need to pledge $3 to get that or will it be provided on the dropbox? Also will there be a nicely formatted set of rules? Happy to pledge to get both if needed
Matthew Mitchell
Yes. Jason confirmed that he will post it. =)
Linda
Will the contents of the December package be posted here before the end of the Perfect Moment Kickstarter? Thanks!
Piotr P
Currently I'm 5$(6$ exactly with international shipping) level patreon. How can I back The Perfect Moment physical version so I will get it with expansion + I will get Liberation physical version with expansion and how much it will cost me? Am I entitled to get the discount then? Or maybe I can pladge for 36$ and get "The Perfect Moment - Plus 2 Games + Exp" (38$) KS level? (I was also a Liberation PnP level backer... but lets not complicate it even more... ;) )
Piotr P
As I checked for September the game for 10$ level was Six Suns of the Sultan? Am I right? Where can I find rules for it to prepare for the copy I'm supposed to recive ? :)
