Concrete Canvas: The Game of Authentic New York Street Art

Half Way There...and Some Exciting Updates
6 months ago – Fri, Apr 10, 2026 at 06:53:13 PM

Good evening everyone. As of 10am ET tomorrow we will have hit the Half Way Point for this campaign and as of this update we have almost 300 Backers and have raised over $31,000 to make Concrete Canvas a reality. This is an amazing amount of support from the community, for Chris's art and for my game Design and I want to see us reach even higher. 

It is really hard to reach out to the parts of the community that don't know about the project but I've been thinking a lot about ways to make things a little more interesting (or encouraging?). I know we said that there weren't going to be stretch goals but...

I have decided to add a few stretch goals to the campaign. If you don't know what Stretch Goals are:

basically they are an incentive that WE offer to the backers (you) to help push the campaign funding higher. If we hit the stated goals, it unlocks more or better things for the game you already pledged for without increasing your cost!

So, In this update I will share the first three stretch goals AND I have included a Poll about a later one we're tossing around. OK? Here goes:

Stretch Goal 1 - Unlocks at $35,000

Better Player Boards

Increase the quality of the Player Boards in the Standard Game (Street Level) and the Standard Expansion from thin Cardstock to Punchboard.

Stretch Goal 2 - Unlocks at $40,000

Better Component Tray

Add a Thermoformed Plastic Tray to the Deluxe Edition (Crew, Legend, Icon Levels)

Stretch Goal 3 - Unlocks at $50,000

More Chris RWK Art

Every Backer of Physical Reward Levels (Street, Crew, Legend, Icon) and higher will receive a 6" x 6" Print of one of Chris RWK's paintings created for the game

Final Words

I hope stretch goals will help increase our excitement level and help everyone to reach out a little further to find others who will love this game as much as you do! I've got at least 2 or 3 more after these and the following poll is for number 5 or 6. I'd love to hear your thoughts! Check out the Poll.

I hope you're doing great and I'm looking forward to getting Concrete Canvas into your hands

Incredible Start! What an Amazing First Day

Good evening, Concrete Canvas Community:

This is the first of what I hope will be many updates over the next several months, so I will keep this one brief.

In case we haven't met. I am David. I started Intersection Games because I wanted to make this game, specifically. There will be other games and I'm excited about them too and the plans we're making, but this campaign - this game - is of personal importance. Chris is a friend and the project means something to both of our families and all those who support us.

That would be YOU. 

I'm glad you're here, not just here - but a backer, a supporter on DAY ONE!!! 

Thank you.

This has been a good day. I have put up a few campaigns before - some successes and some not - but none has had as many backers as we've had just today. Your support of this project does not go unnoticed. 

As I write this we have raised over $16,000 in 11 hours. Just think of what we can accomplish in 23 more days. 

Tell your friends. I'll see you tomorrow.

David
