Happy New Year, Contenders! 🎆
Welcome to 2026!
Before anything else, we want to say THANK YOU. Truly.
Thanks to everyone supporting GodsTV here on Kickstarter and across all our socials, and a massive shoutout to our 1,000+ contenders on Discord. Your support, memes, feedback, and unhinged energy keep the show going – we really couldn’t do this without you.
We took a short break during the holidays, and now we’re back locked and loaded, fully ready to SMASH this 2026.
Now… let’s talk about what’s coming next. 👇
🎮 KINNI PRIVATE PLAYTEST starts January 29
We couldn’t wait to tell you, and here it comes in all its blue glory:

Instructions on how to join
Access details for the build
A dedicated feedback loop
Exclusive testing channels on Discord
This playtest includes huge improvements:
You can now swap between characters in the Backstage

Not eligible for the playtest but still curious? We’ll be streaming directly from the arena on Discord, so come join us anyway!
Beta-eligible backers: stay tuned – You’ll get to play him VERY soon.
🗺️ Roadmap Update
Being an indie studio means we can (sometimes lol) take the time we need to improve things.
We looked at the schedule and decided to push things back a bit to polish, refine, and deliver the shiniest and delightfully chaotic show possible.
Nothing is set in stone (It’s Showbiz baby!), but here’s what you can expect:
Monthly playtests from now until the Early Access release
A brand-new public demo launching in April, open to everyone and their moms
Early Access planned for July, after the June Steam Next Fest
We’ll be announcing lots of cool stuff leading up to all of this, so keep your eyes peeled and visit our Discord often! 👁️📺

🚨 PRIVATE TEST Starts Nov 28 + Final Call for Late Pledges
4 months ago
– Sun, Nov 23, 2025 at 09:06:21 AM
Welcome back, Contenders!
The stage lights are heating up because the GodsTV PRIVATE TEST is about to begin, and only a chosen group will be entering the arena.
Plus, this month marks the final chance to jump aboard before Late Pledges close for good. Once the curtain falls, that’s it.
Let’s jump into the broadcast 👇
🎮 PRIVATE PLAYTEST starts November 28
It’s official: the PRIVATE TEST goes live on November 28, and all backers with an Alphaeligible pledge will gain access. It’ll run all Thanks Giving weekend!
This Private Test is a huge leap from the demo: More moves, more powers, more narrative, the Backstage is open, and the first steps of the progression.
We’ve added so much new stuff that we can’t wait to see your reactions and feedback!
Have a first look 👇
If you're among them: get ready. If you're not… you might still have one shot!
🏆 Want to Join the PRIVATE TEST? Win Your Spot
We’re running a special Community Challenge where a handful of extra contenders will win access to the Private Test! Create a post about your favorite contender, could be in writing, food, fanart, music… anything! Tag us with #godsgiving on Bluesky/X/Instagram so the gods can see it. You’ve got until Thursday 27th. Go claim your glory!
⏰ Last chance for Late Pledges
This is it, the real final window to support GodsTV through Kickstarter.
Late Pledges will close on November 30, and once they’re gone… they’re gone for good. There will be no reopening and no extended grace period this time.
If you’ve been on the fence, or waiting for “later”, this is literally your last shot to:
Secure exclusive tiers
Unlock physical rewards
Get limited upgrades before they're gone
Once the gate closes, there won’t be another chance. For everyone who joins now: welcome to the show. For those who miss it… we warned you, contender!
🛍️ BackerKit updated & smoother than ever
BackerKit is fully operational and we’ve polished it with all your early feedback:
Clearer questions
Fixed early bugs
Streamlined survey flow
BackerKit will remain open long after Kickstarter closes, well into the road toward delivery in Q1 2026, so you’ll have time to finalize shipping and extras.
And when the moment comes to close it, don’t worry: we’ll notify everyone loudly, repeatedly, and everywhere.
If you run into trouble, feel free to message us on Kickstarter or BackerKit. We’ll respond as soon as humanly possible, we’re a small team working hard to support everyone!
