Upcoming Features & Feedback

Understand the current status of Crowdfund and the Artists marketplace, and register interest without mistaking an upcoming page for a live publishing workflow.

Not every visible ShuffleKit destination is a finished production workflow yet. This matters most for Crowdfund and the Artists marketplace: their current pages are feature-interest pages, not a way to launch a campaign, hire an artist, process a payment, or publish a listing.

Crowdfund

The Crowdfund page describes the intended Kickstarter-preparation direction—such as a campaign page, reward tiers, and production-cost planning—but those tools are not active in the current app. You can register interest and describe what would make the feature valuable; doing so does not create a campaign or alter your project.

Until that workflow ships, use Print & Ship for the live path to a physical proof or orderable game, and keep campaign copy, reward ideas, and cost assumptions in Docs & Rules.

Artists marketplace

The Artists marketplace is also gathering interest. It is not a directory, commission system, contract service, or asset-licensing channel today. Registering interest helps prioritize the feature but does not engage an artist or grant rights to artwork.

For the artwork workflow available now, use Generate & Edit Game Artwork and maintain your art direction in a project document. For any third-party art, keep licensing, attribution, and delivery terms in your own written agreement until a marketplace workflow is actually released.

Give useful feedback

The most actionable interest note names the game type, the exact job you need done, and the point in your workflow where it matters. For example: "I need to estimate a 500-copy card-and-token campaign after a successful prototype test." This gives the product team a real problem to solve without implying the feature already exists.

When a page is marked upcoming, treat it as a request-for-feedback surface. The rest of this course covers the features you can use today.
