First Achievement Unlocked! And We're So Close to the Next!
Hey, y'all!
As many of you may have noticed, we unlocked our first achievement! And what's more? We are so very close to unlocking our second achievement, too. Wow! Thank yo...
Dank & Dark (board book). The game is here, and the size/weight of the white mockup is great! The 7" x 7" size feels really good, and I'm glad that the stock was upgraded to the best the printer offers. Their paper proof also looks good, but I want to run through everything once more before approving the proof.
Dank & Dark 16-Ounce Glass. I am unhappy with the weight of the type, so I've already edited the file and ordered a new proof. While what I received is readable, I decided to use a heavier type weight to help things be just that little bit better than they already are.
The pledge manager isn't ready, but it is being worked on. We still think we'll have the pledge manager open before the end of the month. While you wait for that, here are a few quick pics of the two proofs.
For being only a 24-page book, it's a thick one!
And the glass looks good as well. It will look better once the modified version is ready.
Great news, gang! After a few rounds of back and forth with the printer, we can happily report that Dank & Dark is officially at print! Lex and I took time for one last review (and then another last review, making the print file name something like dankanddarkfinished_noreally_final_thisisdone.zip). We should see proofs in July, and we'll report back once those have reached our hands.
Pledge Manager Work is starting, and we'll open the pledge manager (and late pledges) at some time in July. We'll expand on the number of add-on options, including something completely new for Dank & Dark: a glass that features the basics of character creation! After testing the print quality and legibility of smaller type on glasses, we can now confirm that this option will be available in the pledge manager. Wanna get new players started quickly? Hand them a glass and let them get busy making a character!
That's all the news for today. We'll be back in July when we have something new to share with you.
I know the campaign ended only a handful of days back, but I was hoping for an update.
Any news would be great! I am so excited about this project and am eager to hear what to expect next!
