Project Update: August update - some problems and delays
Hi folks
I wanted to let you know that we are currently dealing with some problems with the UV/blacklight flashlight that we had planned to include with Lovecraftesque, and this is causing a delay to the delivery of the physical game.
We'll come back to you when we've got everything resolved, but right now it looks as though the flashlight may cost us a great deal more than what we were originally quoted. We're discussing it with the manufacturer and we still hope to find a solution. However, given the cost increase, one option we're looking at is to removing the flashlight from the game, which would mean you would need to source your own flashlight if you want to view the hidden art included in the game.
The UV/blacklight flashlight isn't needed to play the game, and the hidden art isn't part of gameplay - it's just a cool decoration on the rulebook, box and board.
We're really sorry about this. If you have strong views about the flashlight now is the time to let us know!
We've had to suspend the manufacturing process while we resolve this problem. Once we've completed our discussions with the manufacturer, we'll move to complete manufacturing as quickly as possible - and we think the game will still ship before the end of November.
Again, we're really sorry about the problem with the flashlights, and for the delay this is causing. We'll come back to you in September and hopefully by then things will be much clearer.
Best wishes
Josh and Becky
