Project Update: Workshops, Late Pledges, and Surveys, Oh My!
Hello Marmateers!
We have been working hard over the last week setting up several post-campaign tasks and events! Let's dive in!

I. Character Creation Workshops
This Friday and Saturday, we are hosting our first character creation workshops in our discord. These two events will run in groups for 30-60 minutes each to build characters together, ask questions, and chat about the different options.
- Friday's workshop will be open from 4pm - 8pm central
- Saturday's workshop will be open from 12pm - 4pm central
You can RSVP to the event in our discord server so you don't miss out!
There will be more events in the future. If you can't make these due to timezones or scheduling, let us know in discord, as we will try to plan events for groups in other timezones too (like for our Australian friends!).
II. Late Pledges are Open!
Over the last week, we have worked with Backerkit to set up the Pledge Manager and Late Pledges, and today the Preorder and Late Pledge store is open!
Because we are collecting shipping closer to when we begin fulfillment, we currently cannot accept Paypal. However, we will be enabling Paypal in the store later this year after we collect shipping. Apologies for the inconvenience!

III. Surveys Going Out June 2nd
We have final approvals from Backerkit, and will be sending out surveys the week of June 2nd. At that point, you will be able to manage your pledge and send your shipping information to us! So keep an eye out for that.
Please note that we will be collecting shipping separately at a later date. A lot can change in the few months of development, and we want to make sure we get you the most accurate and cheapest shipping rates based on the final weight of the books and packages.

IV. Project Progress
We are on track and making fantastic progress with the game's writing. We're implementing some clarity tweaks from backer's feedback and getting the stretch goals written!
- Playable Folk: We have the first draft written for all 10 playable folk! That includes their description, appearance, 3 new abilities, and 5 characters building questions for each.
- Setting Guide: Allen completed additional towns over the last week, completing 10/13 towns!
While there is still some core writing to do, we're quickly approaching the polishing phase, where there are just numerous small bits of polish and tweaks to be made across the game's text.

The Midnight Market
In the depths of the Wildernight, merchants gather under the stars in secret places to sell rare goods, from valuable ingredients to ancient artifacts. The Midnight Market is elusive and secretive, with its location changing each season. Even if you do find the market, it’s rumored that you must learn each merchant's tune and hum it in front of their stall, and only then it will whisper back with its wares for sale.

VI. A Rad Game Just Launched!
As you know, we're big fans of nostalgia, and wanted to share a game that just oozes with 1980s and 90s nostalgia that we love: Slubglaster: Slime, Warp and Solder, the official expansion for Slugblaster | Kickflip Over a Quantum Centipede! It just launched today!
Until Next Time,
-Andy
