Project Update: Update #9 - Final 24 Hours!
Hello pilots! We’re in the final 24 hours of the campaign now, and I have to say, we’re stoked for the next steps. We’ve been working hard to get the processes rolling on a number of production, events, and fun opportunities for E//A.
While we watch the counter eagerly to see if our next stretch goal is unlocked, we’re finalizing our list of artists for the soundtrack and beginning the conversations to get everyone on board. We’re incredibly excited about this feature and are exploring a new Add-on as well - a vinyl record of the soundtrack. This will be available POST-CAMPAIGN for pre-order, as we don’t want to muddy the existing campaign with another add-on. But rest assured, all backers will receive a digital copy of the soundtrack on a custom USB drive as well! The vinyl is just a little added bonus.
If you’re looking forward to either of these bonuses, don’t forget to tell your friends, family, co-workers, enemies, suspected horrors, and random strangers on the street about the campaign! We only have 24 hours to go to hit those goals!
Or, well… maybe I’m speaking too soon because pre-orders are right around the corner!
Pledge Manager & Pre-Orders
We’re working hard right now to get the Pledge Manager up and running by July 29th, which will open up PRE-ORDERS as well! Anyone who needs to wait till post-campaign to grab some add-ons, wants a second copy of the book or is still on the fence for those pins and flight patches, you’ll have plenty of time to grab them before we send out surveys! Pre-Orders will be open throughout August (possibly longer).
Play Eldritch Automata this Year!
We know you’re all excited to get your hands on the books and accessories, but we will have play opportunities this year as well! For those attending Gen Con, all our tables are booked for E//A demos, but keep your eyes peeled for a cancellation. We also have a bunch of sessions running at NecronomiCon-Providence, August 15-18, and we’ll have a huge showing at PAX Unplugged, December 6-8, later this year, with some merch available as well! So mark your calendars for some high-octane cosmic horror mecha gaming this year. We’ll announce any other new demo opportunities on social media and our Discord server.
Another VTT is Live
Speaking of gameplay opportunities, the quicklaunch guide and ruleset is now available on Tabletop Mirror! This free platform will give you a full campaign manager and virtual tabletop environment to explore the world of Eldritch Automata in, so go create an account and check it out there.
Speaking of Tabletop Mirror, they’re launching their own Backerkit campaign next month, which will help with the platform's development and server maintenance costs. I know they have some exciting features planned, including play-by-chat and some very cool goodies you can get for backing, so make sure to follow their page and jump into that campaign in August!
That’s it for today, but we’ll post another update tomorrow once the campaign ends, discussing what we’ve achieved and the next steps!
