Last chance to back The macOS App Icon Book
This last month has been a whirlwind. A year’s worth of exciting things compressed into a few weeks: I launched a Kickstarter. I went to Gamescom in Cologne. Taught a workshop in Naples and travelled to Japan to demo at Tokyo Game Show. All while being one of the busiest workloads of the year.
This Thursday we’ll be announcing our next game. Friday the Kickstarter for The macOS App Icon Book ends and Monday I’m leaving for Los Angeles to teach at my 9th Adobe MAX.
If I’m being honest, I’m exhausted.
All of these are wonderful things that happened to bunch up on each other, requiring a lot of context switching and hard gear shifts.
It’s in the home stretch now though. Announcement is almost ready for Thursday (I cannot wait to show you this game) and the Kickstarter has done overwhelmingly well.
If you’ve already supported the project then thank you! If not, then consider this my last reminder to secure your book → https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/flarup/the-macos-app-icon-book
If you can’t afford a book right now, then don’t worry. I plan to switch to pre-orders after the Kickstarter ends. With this amount of funding we should be able to produce at least 3000 books, setting us up for stock that’ll last a long time.
I’ll end with this: While in Tokyo I found a copy of The iOS App Icon Book. Pretty special feeling seeing your book in a bookstore in a foreign country.
I hope you had a slightly less hectic September than me and I hope you’ll help me finish strong on the Kickstarter.
Sincerely,
Michael
