Project Update: Roll20 expansions now released! Plus, an update on the print product.
Hey folks
We have just sent out download emails for the Roll20 expansions, for those who purchased them. In theory, you should be able to add these to your Roll20 account and then select them as a game addon, which will cause all the expansion decks and handouts to appear alongside the core game components. The release of the core playroom seemed to go very smoothly so I'm feeling more confident about this! But do let us know if anything seems not to work as expected.
We have also got the results of our box size poll. As you may have noticed, the results are overwhelmingly in favour of increasing the box size, which is what we'll now explore with out manufacturer.
We've also had a bunch of comments asking about making space for card sleeves. This is a tricky one - we're not sure how many people will want to sleeve their cards, and we suspect Lovecraftesque will have less need of them than a typical card-based game because it simply uses the cards less intensively. More importantly, we're not sure how much extra space this would require. We're having a look at it alongside the other box size issues.
Beyond that, we've had a good look at the prototype game components and everything is mostly in order. There's a small issue with the layout on the box lid (which we'll need to adjust anyway because of the box size issue), and the book covers aren't quite as solid as we'd like so we're looking into that too. These adjustments may add a bit of time to the delivery date - we'll let you know once that has become clearer.
We'll be back in touch in mid-May with an update on where we are with manufacturing.
Thanks as always for supporting Lovecraftesque!
Yours
