We made it!

As of this afternoon, all physical copies for backers have been ordered and anyone eligible for digital downloads of the Quick-Start Guide and the PDF Copy of Undoing Ruin should have received their download links through an email from Backerkit! I've also complimentary digital copies of the PDF through Drive-Thru to anyone who purchased a physical copy so that the PDF also exists in your library there. If you don't see it, check your spam folder, or reach out to me here or at [email protected] so I can assist you.

It's been a long road from conception, to the campaign, to fulfillment and I am humbled and grateful for everyone's support along the way, from the kitchen-table playtests to the launch of the campaign this past year.

It will take a few weeks for printing and shipping, so expect to see your books sometime in April or May. In the meantime, I'm going to begin outreach to get this thing in more places and look for additional storefronts for the PDF version.

The website for the game is also live at https://undoingruinttrpg.io/, and character-sheets and other materials are available for download there. I'll be adding the Quick-Start Guide as a download on that site as well, and adding purchase links once the store page on DriveThru is finalized.

This would not have been possible without your support, so thank you again. I'm excited to see where this game goes from here, and what the future holds.

Hello, all! It's been a couple weeks since the last update so I wanted to check in and give a progress update. Thank you all for your patience as we near the end of the road.

I've been putting together the list of shipping addresses and emails for Physical and Digital fulfillment rewards and my aim is to have everything ordered by March 28th, this coming Saturday!

Digital rewards (PDF copy of the main game and the Quick Start PDF) will be available for download through BackerKit (I'll have more specific instructions once this goes live), while I'll be ordering and shipping the physical books through DriveThruRPG. It will take a few weeks for them to arrive once the order is put in, but you should receive notice with relevant information once everything is sent out. Once the Backer copies are sent out, I'll make the game publicly available for purchase!

Thank you all again for your support over the course of this process. It's been a long and winding road but I'm happy to be able to get this thing out into the world and into your hands this weekend.

Hello, all! I wanted to give an update on the status of things after receiving the latest proof and reviewing it.

We are nearing the end of the process of producing the final book and I hope to begin fulfillment in the next couple of weeks. There is still some outstanding logistical work of preparing the final files and the mailing list for physical copies but I plan on getting everything set up and sent out by the middle of this month.

I will post more details when the time gets closer so stay tuned for more information!

Hello, all! There's been some silence on my end for the last few weeks so I wanted to check in and give an update on the status of the project.

As of today, what I hope to be the final proof before production has been ordered, with the inclusion of all submitted backer generated content. Provided that all is well with the new content in the book, once it is reviewed I will begin the process of getting books and PDFs sent out to all backers who qualify for them.

Due to print and shipping times, I hope to begin the fulfillment process towards the beginning of March, with an estimated arrival date of late March to early April. PDFs will be made immediately available for download here, while production and shipping will take some additional time. If there are any last-minute corrections that must be made, it might delay final fulfillment, but after the last review pass I am confident that this most recent proof will be the final one.

For the Stretch Goal the campaign hit, the Quick-Start Guide has also been written and designed, and is currently in the process of layout. Once completed, it will be gifted to all backers regardless of Tier as part of the project's overall fulfillment and be made available as a free digital download. It contains 15 starter characters and 10 templates for Missions. I had a lot of fun writing this content and it includes both some builds and Mission concepts that I had while playtesting that never got to see the light of day, so I'm very excited to share it with you all!

Thank you all for your continued patience and as we near the finish line I will keep lines of communication open to keep you informed of the project's progress.

Hello, all! Reaching out to say that as of this evening, after some delay to accommodate late responders, I have locked orders, charged cards, and confirmed shipping addresses for all backers who have submitted their surveys. There are still a few people I'm waiting on to complete their survey, and I will be extending the final deadline to January 3rd, 2025.

Please submit your survey if you have not done so! I need the names that will go into the book and final shipping addresses if you are receiving a physical copy.

Furthermore, the first pass on Custodian backer content is nearly done. I am just waiting on one last response and feedback from a selection of backers who have been sent their first draft. If you are in one of these two categories, please send me any feedback you have when you can so I can do my own internal edits and finalize things.

At present, I'm on pace to ordering the next and potential final proof in early January and shipping things out in either February or March of next year. Thank you all for your correspondence and continued support. I'll hopefully be reaching out again in a couple weeks with some more good news.
