Project Update: First Round of Feedback Completed / Survey Reminder!
Hi fellow Vivids!
As the prophecy foretold, our first round of backer feedback has come to an end! I closed the form for the sourcebook this morning, and glanced at all the amazing comments. THANK YOU SO MUCH to those of you who took the time and effort to do that. I know it's a lot of work, and we really appreciate it. Your enthusiasm and attentiveness will make the book better!
More than that, we've gotten an amazing reaction to the book so far, with positive comments coming in from discord and private communications. THANK YOU for that. We LOVE to hear it, and it makes us feel like we just might have accomplished our goal in creating this unique setting.

Survey Update
Thank you to everyone who has filled out their backer survey! As of this writing, about 87% of you have completed them, and we're very grateful for that! We are aiming for 100% as soon as possible, so if you HAVEN'T filled out your survey yet, it's very easy!
If you lost the email or need to have it sent again, you can request your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://han-cluster.backerkit.com/.
Please fill the survey out even if you are a digital only backer, as it allows us to tick all our boxes on this end for final reward delivery. It really is just a couple of questions and will take you less than 5 minutes. You do NOT need to be logged in. Just click the custom link in the email you received. Remember, surveys will be locked in mid to late June, with credit cards for add-ons and taxes charged shortly after that (we'll remind you). As another reminder, shipping for physical products will be charged later when we're close to sending out the printed books, cards, and maps (we'll remind you of that too when the time comes).

Next Steps
We are still awaiting the Transcendence adventure book to come back from our fantastic editor, Jodi Black, which we anticipate should be very soon. That puts us on track for the release of the adventure book and campaign cards for backer feedback on May 26th or so! It's not a hard date, because delays can always happen for any number of reasons, but we're fairly confident at this point. Then we'll have a brand new google form just for the adventure book and campaign cards for any backer feedback you might have for us. Like the sourcebook, the feedback period will last two weeks.
After that, we'll be doing all we need to do on this end to finalize the files to send to the printer, so we can get that ball rolling as soon as possible. Shortly after that, we'll release the "Core Cards" (a.k.a. all of the digital stretch goals we unlocked) for our FINAL round of backer feedback. Since those will not be printed products, they are a lower priority because of the need to get started on the print run process, but we still anticipate getting those to you in early to mid-June.

Printed Cover Sneak Peaks!
We just finished the layouts of the printed covers for the books and maps, and we think they're quite beautiful. We thought we'd show off the low-res versions of them here.

Thank you for all you do, KEEP FILLING OUT THOSE SURVEYS, and we'll be in touch as soon as the adventure book is ready for feedback!
