Are you hot? The Dodino Volcano has awakened! Our next SG will be the double sided board, this trail will have effects in the race. Any suggestions? Let us know in the main comment section!
Together we reached two more stretch goals, for new cards (with excellent ideas for them such as Jonhy's "Trap card") and a new runner, Godefroit and Valery join the race!!
Godefroit is such a cool name for a Dodo don't you think? Here's where the name comes from!
And Valery is one of the favorites! A very fast dino, so agile that sometimes it is difficult for Godefroit to ride!
We continue to receive amazing submissions for the social goals. First disguised dino! Take a look:
@nmchim Dodo Ompayer said yes, it counts! Safe!

Hi Dodos and Dinos,
Another big day for the Dodino Island. We already unlocked 6 SG and here's the most recent one:
Oversized Custom Dice
Originally, these dice were considered to be 16mm per side with regular pips. But now we will have larger dice (possibly 25mm) with custom engraving to match the cards iconography! We know everyone loves the feeling of rolling larger and heavier dice!
The next SG will be a new racer. As you know we did a poll in a previous update and here are the results:
Green vs Yellow
Godefroit & Valery have more cards in hand... so they won the tie. What do you think Jabb?
And the next miniature stretch goal will be:
Remember we have social goals, we've been receiving amazing stuff like this:

DINO RIDERS!
Are you ready to run with power? We can't hear you!!!! Are you raaaawry for pooowa?! We reached the stretch goal for cards with Player-Powers; plus upgrading the material for ALL cards from Bluecore to Ivorycore with linen finish.
These double-sided cards have two functions in the game. In one hand, they're the players' character ID card to keep track of which mini or meeple belongs to each player. On the other hand, enables an optional play mode with unique powers for each racer. It also contains the data for the AI solo mode (or challengers in multiplayer mode) and the difficulty to race against those in Solo mode.
As you already know the game is available in English and Spanish, you'll choose the language for your copy in Backerkit after the campaign ends. However, there have been a lot of inquiries asking for other languages as French, German or Italian, so this is an announcement for the Language Quests; we need 100 backers from your country and translation volunteers (thanks Olivier) for getting the rulebook and cards translated. We will start coordinating this once we get close to that number. We will also reach out to localization partners in those language to review if they would be interested for this. Spread the word with your friends or local Facebook groups!
Finally, begin thinking in more movement card ideas because we'll achieve our next stretch goal soon! All of these new cards will be based in original ideas by backers.
Parks and Cris join the race!

Hi Dodibackers,
It has been almost 30 hours since the beginning of the race. Together we have unlocked 2 extra cards, the awesome Dodino-Meeples and now you have unlocked the first additional miniature! Let us properly introduce to you the next racer:
Fun fact: The Dodos' names in the cards are based in the original finder discoverer (or someone debated to be the original discoverer in some cases).
Regarding the names displayed in the game components, the first one belongs to the Dodo and the second name belongs to the dino, based on some attribute or joke that relates to that particular dinosaur species.
Who will be the next racer?
During this time we also received great suggestions as ExSheex's friendly projectile materials or funny cards examples like ; Shiyao "Dodos eat mushrooms", or Juan Serrano's card "Cadillacs & Dodosaurus". Keep suggestions coming! Social achievements are starting to appear! Remember to use the hashtag #dodosridingdinos and if possible tagging us and including a link to this campaign!
We are already talking with our manufacturer to review if possible to make projectiles from a foam material in case you want to use your minis!
We have some dinos already illustrated and sculpted but through stretch goals we will be able to cover tooling (which is expensive) to include them in the game. If we manage to unlock those and still have room for new minis, we will be designing them based on your suggestions for sure! Let us know which one would you like to see next when we reach the following New Miniature stretch goal!
Finally, please click in the link below so Dodos Riding Dinos can rank higher on Kicktraq and get more visibility (and reach stretch goals faster). Thanks to backer Jonhy*backing dodos riding dinos" for reminding us! If possible, please go to this link every day and click on the “visit project” button:

Hello Dino riders!
You are do-dominating this campaign and it's great to see we have 2 stretch goals already unlocked within the first 16hrs of being live!
The first unlocked Stretch Goal added 2 extra cards with a new effect and art to increase player options. You will get involved in the creation of these new cards for sure!
The second unlocked Stretch Goal features a great addition for the game: CUSTOMDINO-MEEPLES!
The miniatures are fantastic and we are already talking with Panda GM to make them sturdy against the token impacts. HOWEVER, with Dino-Meeples you can choose to swap some minis when using a dexterity move. Or just play with this all the game if you prefer and leave your Miniatures for the asymmetric game experience in Creature Kingdoms. Pretty much by the awesome game Vast by Leder Games where you can choose to play with minis, meeples or standees. Miniatures are so cool but custom meeples are also extremely nice right? Plus, these might be used in another gameplay mode we are preparing but more about that later in the campaign.
It's time to race towards a new Miniature! Hopefully, we will have this unlocked some time tomorrow.
We love seeing your comments and ideas but remember that Social Achievements must be shared in social media using the hashtag #dodosridingdinos in order to count!
By recommendation of Lair, a subsidiary company from Draco Studios, we will also be introducing polls so you can vote for the priority of the stretch goals (as Lair did in their Legendary Dragons 3D project). Stay tuned for a poll in the next update. Keep running and keep sharing! Thanks for joining us in Day-1!
