Project Update: November Update!

Hey y'all! I apologize for the long wait in updating. I've had a lot going on in my life but things are progressing well. Here's our check in for GMROM:

Art
  • About 50% finished!
  • Per the vision of our Art Director, we are working with a very large and diverse team, which means that organizing everything takes longer!
  • We have a large variety of different styles being presented in the book intentionally.

Narrative
  • Our Romance System (tracking, dating, dispute, serenade, intimacy) is 80% finished with 4 of our designers having turned in their drafts. Sensitivity/cultural checks and then editing are our next steps.
  • Essayists have begun their process of writing!
  • Additional "splat" content will be drafted soon. (NPCs, date locations/ideas, gifts, conversation/dialogue.)

Additional Add-Ons
  • Backers who chose the Art Deco Card add-on with their pledge are currently being worked on. If you have not responded to our email about this, please reach out and we'll get you sorted.
  • Letters From A Romantic backers please reach out via email so we can get you sorted! Drafting these will begin soon and we want you to receive your reward.

New timeline
Due to some chaos on our backend and the overall state of the world, we are expecting that our timeline might be pushed slightly later than first anticipated. I had initially estimated that we would be finished with production by the end of December, but now it is looking more like February for post-production. From there Metal Weave Games will begin layout and pushing our book to printer in the Spring of 2025, if not sooner. Digital fulfillment will occur before printing. Again, I apologize for the delay.

All that being said: thank you for supporting our project and we are looking forward to delivering a quality resource for GMs everywhere.

Want to support the project?
