I've just got a quick check-in today to let you know things are moving along!
The Cube
As we mentioned in the last update, the only prototype we had was the black & white cube, but we needed to wait to order a color version until after the campaign and vote ended. Over the past month, our cartographer has been finalizing the color adjustments to Dyson Logos' map.
In talking with the manufacturer, there is a small concern that with such a severe edge to the colors, the "boxes" of color may vary slightly in their placement and not look perfectly even when viewed up close. That is obviously not what we want, so we're ordering two slightly different border prototypes to see if we can mitigate that potential issue.
Hard Borders (original concept)

Softened Borders

Through this process, we also may have had a little fun and worked on a surprise third option that we're pretty dang excited about. More on that soon!
Sneaky Peeky
The Book
Things are also chugging right along with the adventures. As soon as the campaign ended, Lazlo's Cubed Crypt entered sensitivity review. Our reviewer, Anna, flagged a few things needing another opinion, so we quickly found another consultant with that specialty. Nathan is finalizing those revisions, and then it will be ready for the first round of edits!
Alan also immediately began writing his stretch goal adventure and knocked out the first draft SO FAST. It's in sensitivity review now and should be ready to enter the editing stage soon.
Next Steps
Once all the prototypes come in, we'll share photos so you can see how things are looking. As long as there are no glaring issues with them, we'll also open up surveys at that point.
