Hey y'all!

As I mentioned originally, I'm aiming to keep these updates monthly unless something significant comes up. We're coming up on a month out from Last Light Station funding. I've been wrapping up the last of the writing after a couple of fun playtests. I'll be doing two more next week before getting the manuscript over to Christian for editing!

I've also been plugging away at the NPC artwork. A few of these pieces are editing from Bloodstained Snow's cover assets, while most are public domain art I've edited. Keep in mind, none of these should be considered "final," but I wanted to share the WIP pieces:

I'll check back in next month, but the TL;DR for this one is "we are on track and moving along." Until next time!

Kindly,
Joshua

THANK YOU! Last Light Station not only funded, but soared past the stretch goals laid out at the start of the campaign. I’m bowled over by the level of support I received, and very excited to get it into your hands. 

Let’s talk briefly about the timeline. Writing, editing and layout will take place over the next few months. Then, in June you’ll have the pre-print PDF version of the zine! I’ll allow some time for folks to report errors and to finesse any layout details before going to print sometime in July or August. That puts us on track to fulfill in September! 

Now, I’m giving myself a super generous timeline to allow for any snags in development, but at the moment, I don’t foresee anything delaying progress and hope to have things out sooner. I’ll keep y’all updated monthly here letting you know how things are moving along, and sharing WIP pieces from the module. For now though, I’m gonna take a deep breath, spend a couple of days on the coast, and let myself appreciate the support you all have shown. 

Thank you again, truly.

Great work, y’all! We passed $7k which means every backer will now get digital map codes for the Mothership Companion app! As I mentioned in a prior update, there will be a map for the station as a whole, as well as some simple maps expanding the sections (e.g. there will now be a map of the entire entertainment district). I’m also including PNG versions of the maps as well, for those not using the app for their games.

What’s the last stretch goal? Well, if we manage to hit $9k: RADIO LAST LIGHT comes to life! I’ll flesh out the in-universe radio station with an expanded digital release, audio broadcasts and a custom mix. It may seem far away, but you’ve all continued to amaze me with the level of support, so why not aim big? I’ll check in when the campaign ends in about 17 hours and see where we’ve landed. 

Until then,
Joshua

Cain Sun is in the final 48 hours of their campaign! If you back it AND Last Light Station, you’ll get a free digital tri-fold adventure written by Waco and I!

Back Cain Sun while you can!
