Dear Backers,
We tried our best in attempting to create Nope 2.0 for a second time. Although we had made some initial advancements to create it again, there are still issues we're having at the mass production level. Managing the magnetic material has been a challenge and the end production does not create a quality product. After considerable efforts and trials and errors we're sorry to report that at this time we will not be able to create Nope 2.0 a second time.
We haven't stopped but at this time it does not seem feasible to mass produce with our current design.
Nope 2.0 still works great with desktops and a lot of laptops, but we sincerely apologize that is has not worked in all cases. We'll keep you updated if we have breakthroughs.
Aloha!

Dear backers,
The good news is that the re-manufacture phase is about to move into full swing!
Re-Design
We are now in production of our raw materials. Due to the upcoming Chinese New Year Holiday, the next phase of manufacture will have be postponed until after that brief hiatus. It has taken time to test the material and engineering the tooling to create the large quantity that we need, and we are grateful for your patience as the kinks get worked out.
Our next update will include production quality images. We’re confident that you will be as happy with the results as we are.
For the re-odering process backers have asked if they will need to return the Nope 2.0 beta version, or pay for the new one or its delivery. The answer is no, we just want you to have these and benefit from their use. They work really well. For those that want the newly produced Nopes they'll be able to update their address. Remanufacturing and shipping costs are expensive, so we will welcome donation backings if anyone is inclined. We understand, though, that we made the decision to ship the beta version (delivering according to the original timeline), and we take responsibility for the manufacturing issues mentioned in previous updates.
