Limited time Hopeye and Socks plushies!

28 August 2024, 10:00 am

💜💜 Two years of Exocolonist

🚀I Was a Teenage Exocolonist🚀 is two years old this week! We’re celebrating our second Exoversary with a Steam daily deal (let’s make that a week) and two new Makeship plushie campaigns. The first 200 sales of each doll includes a free Steam key!

✨ Get yours before September 25 2024 ✨

🐸🐀 The Hopeye

Xenofelis monopodus

Hopeyes leap around on a single foot and live in colonies with up to 100 others. They can be fierce little creatures when their friends are threatened, so don’t underestimate them!

They love cuddles.

🐲🐛 The Dillypillar (Socks)⁠⁠

Xenosaurus polyped

Dillypillars can sometimes be seen in the western Wresting Ridges. They’re generally solitary, and can grow up to 100 pairs of feet!⁠ This particular dillypillar is just a wee four-legged juvenile, named Socks for her white-colored feet.

She loves cuddles too.

🍄🚀 Crowdfunding-style campaigns

Makeship is giving us one month to reach a minimum of 200 orders. On September 25 the campaign ends, and if we’ve met our goal then every plushie will be made-to-order for our backers. After that, no more will be made!

The estimated shipping date is December 14th so you miiiight get yours in time for the holidays, but if you’re planning to gift one to somebody, maybe have a nice card ready just in case your xenofauna is a little late. (Steam keys will be given out to the first 200 backers as soon as the campaign ends.)

🕘🕚 Limited time only

We did Nomi, Sol and vriki campaigns earlier this year, but Socks and the hopeye are the final Exocolonist plushies we have plans to make. I may change my mind later because you know I love making merch, but you’ve been warned: these might be the last!

So ✨ visit Makeship ✨ to preorder one (or both for 10% off) before the campaign ends on September 25th 2024!
