Smoothies, Spells, and conventions
Witches, welcome!
Our Coven is hard at work on Pumpkin Spice.
The authors have participated to two of the biggest Italian conventions in the past month: one in Turin and one in Bologna, specifically dedicated to RPGs, were Ian and Giorgia had the chance to do a talk about Pumpkin Spice and your magical support.
Meanwhile, some lucky Italian witches had the chance to play the quickstart using the preview of the Italian Which Witch test (and that's been shared with Italian backers as well, check your Backerkit page - you should have received an email about it, if you chose Italian as a language).
Speaking of conventions: we opened up some tables at GenCon to play Pumpkin Spice with our GMs, but we didn't even have the time to announce them - you immediately filled all the seats! Thank you <3
We are also looking forward to release a couple of new Spells to let you take a look at them and possibly playtest them with us.
Music production is going on strong as well: we should be able to release soon some news about a couple new tracks.
Also: we miss you and want to chat with you again. What do you say about a livestream to do a check in, together with the authors? If that's something you would like, just let us know in the comments.
As temperatures rise here in Italy, enjoy one fresh smoothie, courtesy of Giorgia D'Aversa (author of the narratives of Pumpkin Spice) herself.
See you soon!

The (Beta) Which Witch Questionnaire is here! + Late pledge & Backer survey, and more
Good day, Witches!
Our Coven is already hard at work, and after a fortnight of staff calls, previews, and tests, we are officially at work.
We have a lot of cool updates, so buckle up.
First and foremost: we shared a (very) beta version of the Which Witch Questionnaire! If you have the Corebook in your pledge (whichever format), you should be able to see it in your downloadable files.
It is a Beta version, which means that it might still be tweaked and fixed in some points, and also that this is not the final layout: if you want to leave some feedback here or on our Discord server, we'd be more than glad to read it.
A message to our Italian audience: La prossima settimana rilasceremo anche la versione in italiano del test "Che strega sei?". Inoltre, stiamo organizzando delle giocate online in italiano con l'aiuto degli amici dell'associazione Perludo. Iscrivetevi su Discord per ricevere gli aggiornamenti!
This brings us directly to the second news, which is that we opened late pledges (a couple of weeks ago, actually) and the pledge manager (today)! You should have received an email from Backerkit about it (or should receive it soon). If in a couple of days you haven't received it, try accessing from this link.
Third and final piece of news, for now: know that the authors are already at work on both the corebook and the Magical Adventures. Hopefully, we'll be able to share a bit of their writing journey soon, and start organizing some playtesting with you all!
See you soon with a fresh batch of news (and coffee)

First steps
Witches,
did you miss us? <3
After a much needed short break to recover from the longest ten minutes ever (if you know, you know), we have poured ourselves into the work behind the scenes that has to be done right after a campaign ends, so: preparing and opening late pledges (they're live!), working on the pledge manager (hopefully we will be able to send the surveys real soon, we are waiting for the final approvals), and starting the production process. We already had the first official meeting to discuss timelines, ideas, and more, and we can't wait to share them with you in the first official updates!
This is more a message to say that we are alive and kicking :)
It is still unbelievable, to us, the amazing final result that we were able to achieve with your support. THANK YOU, from the bottom of our hearts. We can't wait to start this journey, sharing the making of Pumpkin Spice, with you!

10,000 Witches! Let's celebrate together with a livestream! PLUS, we'll reveal one last surprise...
Witches,
can you believe today is the last day of this campaign?
We honestly can't! Two weeks have gone by so quick, it almost seems like there was really some kind of magic involved. Getting to the last day and seeing the backer counter climbing up to 10,000 Backers, and still going... We truly are speechless and over the moon!
You managed to unlock the last community goal left, gifting to ALL BACKERS a digital track from our cozy soundtrack, and doing so you managed to smash through all of the stretch goals and community goals!
... maybe? ;)
Who knows what might be revealed later!
Tune in here on the campaign page or on our YouTube channel, we'll wait for you with a cup of your favourite sparkling beverage for the celebratory toast.
And if can't make it for the live, know this: we are beyond grateful. Thank you, Witches, for this amazing experience. You and your support made it possible!

Project Update: [Pumpkin Spice RPG] First new illustration by SimzArt + we get closer to uncover the secret Final Spell
Witches,
Today we had the pleasure of watching SimzArt working, live, on this wonderful illustration that he is doing for Pumpkin Spice! We hope you enjoy it <3 This version is not final - but it's pretty close!
We also unlocked a couple new stretch goals - we know, we said in our latest update they were the last ones; but you asked for more, and we obliged, because our authors always have a good new idea in their sleeve - and we are getting closer and closer to discovering the Final Spell... we've seen some speculation in the comments, and we can't wait to share!
It's incredible to think we are entering the Last 48 (Rush) Hours. If you are reading this and are still in doubt if backing or not... Take a look at all the stretch goals unlocked, ask us questions here and on Discord, pour yourself a good cup of coffee or tea, and feel the cozy vibes: we know you'll want to join the Coven.
Lastly, we have a new Community goal for which we ask your help. Let's spread the world of Pumpkin Spice and gift a sweet cozy tune to all the backers of the project!

Witches,
we heard your request, and after a bit of reflection, we decided to take the plunge and activate the pay-over-time option!
We hope you will appreciate it <3

Witches,
as you may or may not know, we are an Italian company, which means that sometimes time zones might prevent us to answer promptly to your questions (because, even though we definitely overindulge with our magical espresso, we still need a little bit of sleep).
Fret not! We will get back to you and answer any doubts as soon as we wake up.
As for suggestions, leave them here or on the community wall and we'll definitely check them out. We've already collected a couple that we might implement, provided that it makes sense for the campaign and for the game.
Hopefully, there will be also new stretch goals to unlock :)
Thank you for your amazing support, see you in a couple hours!
