This update is long overdue. Thank you for being patient! We may be silent but lots of things going on inside the LUMPIA kitchen. Let's reveal some cool concept art by interior artist RAF SALAZAR. This is a secret first look at one of our lead characters. What do you think?

SURVEYS will be going out first week of JANUARY 2026 through Backerkit. Our target date for the release of this book is JULY 2026. More updates to come! Enjoy the holidays and THANK YOU Lumpia Lovers!!!
Because of your pledge and support, we will be creating:
A Full-Color 24 Page First Issue of LUMPIA MANGGA!
And yes, the results are in and the FINAL TITLE will be called-- LUMPIA MANGGA!
We never want to take these moments, these campaigns, and your pledges for granted. Your contribution motivates us to keep this going. It's easy to fall into that trap of diminishing returns and LUMPIA fatigue. For now, we are focused on those who are just as excited as we are to get started on this new chapter of the LUMPIA Deep Fried Universe. WE CAN NOT WAIT TO BRING THIS TO LIFE!
Our target completion date is not until SUMMER 2026 but we will constantly give you updates on every phase of this journey. Surveys will go out next month and you'll have the opportunity to receive any completed items much earlier. We will also be opening our pre-order store soon so that late bird backers can still join the campaign.
Again, on behalf of our whole team, THANK YOU for your support and LOVE THAT LUMPIA!
Ends at 1PM PT today! Meet the interior artist for LUMPIA MANGGA...
