Hey folks!

We'll keep it brief. The plain text manuscript is done and we're over halfway done with layout. Pretty soon we'll be calculating shipping and printing proofs to make sure everything looks right on paper. Can't tell you guys how excited we are!

Hey y'all,

Sorry for the late update. Ryan has had a lot going on personally and Chris has been on vacation and working on projects ahead of Straight Arrows in the queue. That said, we've gotten some layout done, with the caveat of the manuscript not being finalized. Additionally, Worne has finished 2 of 4 maps, and nearly completed another. The third in progress is going to be something really special, but I won't ruin the surprise. 

Anyways, have some spreads:

Hey folks! Out amazing editor Chris Airiau (Not Enough Scoundrels, Bio-Drones and Cryo Clones, and others) is working on the helping us revise the text for both clarity and word choice. Some of this is going to necessitate reworking layout we've already done, but we want Straight Arrows to be more than a pretty shelf trophy. We don't have a hell of a lot to show visually that's we've done as we are waiting for the layout to proceed with art so we make sure there is room. Unfortunately, we're a little behind on account of this, but we are committed to a reasonable turnaround while still giving you the highest quality module we can.

Until next time,
You Straight Arrows Crew

Hey folks! There's a good bundle of digital TTRPG products on itch.io right now.

Baltimore, the city in question, is training street medics with the funds raised. Go and support them! Baltimore is a great city full of a lot of great people. It partially inspired Hewitt Spring and we will probably be featuring causes that help places and people that have influenced our writing and design process.

Stay tuned!

Hey folks!

Sorry for the late update. Ryan, the writer, had to have a lot of dental work done in February. Additionally, our copy editor had to leave the project abruptly. That said, over all things are going well!

Right now we have two big pieces of good news:

Wait, what does done-ish mean?

Well, this project was intended to be a lot shorter... but have more content and more art. Two things that are obviously mutually exclusive. This happened because Ryan is TERRBILE at estimating page count. We are currently looking at a roughly 60 page layout outline, once all the text is put on paper and given room to breathe and interspersed with art. The reason we say it is "done-ish" is because there are a few short, minor sections we'd like to it in, but it really depends on what we can fit into the zine without making it too thick to staple. We are going to be taking a serious look at what additional, nonessential content from the outline we can tetris into the layout once we get further along. As I'm sure y'all know by now, this is a work of passion for all of us on the team. If we could fit everything in, without ruining the centerfold or overwhelming you with TL;DR nonsense, we would.

Speaking of writing...

Once we've done some copy editing, we'll be previewing more of it. Our first priority are the patient generator and the premade, VIP patient missions. Those, large chunks of the zine are going to determine how much we can fit in elsewhere. Additionally, we really, really, want to make sure we convey the crunch in a way that is easy to digest.

Also...

Have an art.

Gratefully yours,

The Straight Arrows Team
