New content update, fun projects to back, and Angel Dust digital ready for download!
Hey folks!
Just a quick update...
First, you will all (who ordered Angel Dust) receive your v0.9 version of the Angel Dust book shortly!
Keep an eye out for a BackerKit email ...
As noted int he last update, all of the products were sent to the printers. All they have left to do is the books, slipcases, and dice. I received proofs of them all last month and sent them our changes. As of today, they have confirmed all of the changes, and have finally queued up the products for printing.
The bad news is that production will now be interrupted by the Chinese New Year next month... so they a relooking to be done with books and dice around April 1st. That suuuuucks. This is taking way longer than I had hoped, in part because we were slower than we wanted in the writing process, but now additionally because production and revisions are 3x what they said it would be in terms of time. I'm very sorry.
All that said, the products are going to be incredible! We are very happy with the books and slipcases. If all goes well, you'll have them in your hands in the spring.
Well, we're getting close! Everything is off to manufacturing, and we've gotten back from images of the proofs. They'll be sending us the physical proofs next week from China, so I hope to have them before the holidays so we can approve printing to proceed.
One hiccup... the dice look like crap! The manufacturers provided me with images of the dice, and they were exceptionally bad. They are going to have to remake the proofs with new specifications, which is going to take a few weeks. But we have to do it. I can't deliver you the ugly things they made the first time around. We'll get it sorted!
Here's a video of the proof books they printed. They need some tweaking, but overall they look pretty good. My hope is to give them a thorough physical review in a couple of weeks (when they arrive) and have feedback for them before the end of the year. Once that happens, it should only be a few more weeks for the full print runs.
Thanks for your patience, everyone. This is out first time working with an overseas printer, and it has been a process. We're learning. It will only get easier from here!
Hey everyone, just a quick note that you should be receiving an email from Backerkit with all of your digital rewards. This includes The Real Thing, Angel Dust, King for a Day, and all of the relevant sheets and rules guides for those who ordered each.
Give it a couple of days, in case of delays. If you haven't gotten them by 11/12/24, please message us. Check your spam as well!
Just a quick note to let you all know that nearly everything is off to the printers! Woohoo! I'll have an update soon as to when we should expect shipping to start. There could be some delays in freight from China as well as domestic and international shipping, based on where things stand with logistics and shipping companies. I'm just not sure yet.
One more quick note... We had to change course on the King for a Day book a bit. We had originally intended to have two one-shot adventures in the book, in addition to the conclusion of The Real Thing adventure. After doing the layout, we only had room for one of the one-shots, and we still came in 16 pages longer than we planned! So, Woodpecker from Mars will be in the KFAD book, but Zombie Eaters will not. That said, we'll be issuing Zombie Eaters as a PDF-only adventure to all backers, once it it laid out and proffed.
