On April 16, GI alumni, and full-time game designer at Wiggles 3D, AC Atienza’s latest boardgame One-Hit Heroes quickly surpassed its Kickstarter goal of CA$30,000 within an amazing 30 minutes. By May 16th at the end of the campaign, Wiggles 3D’s Kickstarter for the game reached a final total of CA$296,467 with the support of 3465 backers. 

One-Hit Heroes, a co-op fighting card game where players band together to defeat bosses with just 1 HP. After defeating the first boss, players unlock new card packs which behave as “episodes” introducing them to another chapter of the narrative while giving game upgrades to enhance their playing experience as well. 

The game is Atienza’s second successful Kickstarter campaign, following the success of Captain’s Gambit, published by Cloudfall Interactive Studios, a company Atienza founded and works as the lead designer.  

The GI congratulates AC Atienza on their highly successful campaign and looks forward to having copies around the GI!
