Project Update: August Update

Hey friends,

Hope you're having a good summer. Just wanted to drop in and give a quick update for all of you. I've had a few medical problems come up over the last couple months. Although I'm waiting on some results from the doc, things are getting back in order.

The books are getting finished up hopefully this month and sent out in PDF form to all of you and then to our overseas printers. Currently, all the other stretch-goal add-ons are complete and ready to go as are the VHS cases which are being held at our other office.

In the meantime, if you have any issues don't hesitate to reach out to Bree at [email protected]

Thanks again!

 - Dave

PS: My horror movie picks for this year so far are Maxxxine and Late Night with the Devil.

Project Update: September Update

Hey friends!

Hope everyone's having an awesome "oh, crap, it's time to go back to work..." post-Labor Day day. Just swinging in with a quick update.

First, if you didn't know, I'm just now getting over a pretty nasty ailment that lasted for about two months. It's put... *everything* behind, unfortunately. But I'm happy to say that I'm through the worst of it and back in the saddle. 

As soon as I get an updated timeline, I'll get you all updated on that. In the meantime, I should be releasing PDFs of the couple of things that are hanging out there and will likely offer up a few more fun things in the meantime to keep you satiated while you wait. 

Anyways, thanks as always for your support. When you're an old, unhealthy bastard like me, you take for granted how much your health plays into getting stuff done. Either way, I hope to get this all knocked out the park so we can get this stuff in your hands.

Take care!

 - Dave

Just wanted to get some clarification on the delivery timeframes! If I pledged for the CYST VHS Box and Uncensored Xanthophobia, when can I expect to receive them? Will there be split shipments or will it all come in one shipment?

Project Update: Status Update!

Hey everyone!

Sorry you haven't heard from us in a while. Usually, no news is good news. I am going to update you on where everything is at, namely an updated timeline we have for manufacturing CYST hardcover and Xanthophobia.

Can You See Them? (hardcover) and Xanthophobia (both editions)
We've adjusted the story of CYST based on your feedback. We are wrapping up those changes now and then will go through another proofing process before we update the PDF in Backerkit. Dave is making good progress on Xanthophobia. We tried to schedule both of these products at the same, where they'd arrive here in the US for fulfillment at the end of September. Unfortunately, we could not make that schedule work. However, we are able to get both books printed at the same time with a delivery in Novemeber. We decided it was best to go with this schedule and get both CYST hardcover and Xanthophobia shipped together. This means that everything will still be fulfilled and at your doorstep before the holiday season! As with everything, PDFs will be available as soon as they are ready.

Can You See Them?, The Diner, Arcade, and Horror Softcovers
We already have The Diner and Horror Core Rulebook ordered and in our fulfillment center. Arcade will be done and proofed soon. As mentioned, CYST files are close to done and will be proofed soon. All of these softcovers will be printed at local destinations via with KDP or Mixam. We expect to have everything ready to go all at once (including the VHS sets which I will detail below), that way all you folks will be waiting on is CYST hardcover and the Xanthophobia versions.

Some exciting news is that we recently opened a new location, and now have plenty of space at our old spot to hold all of the books and accessories for fulfillment. This is where most of the DMDave fulfillment magic will happen. You can see pictures the stacks of VHS cases and some of the other accessories that we are staging. This room will soon be full of everything for this project and our team will have plenty to package up for shipping!

DMDave Fulfillment


VHS Sets
Everything going into the VHS sets will be made here in the US. We're just waiting on components for them at this point, as well as the finalized Arcade. We already have a majority of the cases staged, and expect these to be ready to go with the other softcovers and accessories.

Additional Add-ons
Other smaller add-ons like GM Screens, pins, and so forth will go out on a case-by-case basis. For example, if you're waiting just for the hardcover and all you got was one pin, we'll wait for it to print. But if you went all-in and you're just waiting on Xanth, we'll send the pin with everything else. If you have any questions about this, let us know.

The shirts are coming from Printful, so those will probably ship directly from them.

Bonus PDF and PDF updates
Dave is still working on the bonus PDF that will be made available to everyone. We will post another update once we've updated the PDF file for CYST, or upload any new digital downloads. If you still need assistance with accessing the PDFs, let us know here! 

We cannot thank everyone enough for making this such a great project, especially with your engagement and feedback. Let us know if you have prepped any games from the PDFs, I've been told that folks have already ran Horror at some local conventions! We love hearing about those games. Speaking of conventions, we will be at BGG.Spring in Dallas, TX this month, and then Origins Game Fair in Columbus, OH. If you are there, feel free to stop by and say hello!
