MINI-UPDATE: Print n' Play + International Shipping
Hello GEWPERS,
Before the BIG update, a quick status check:

Project Update: Project Update: POST-CAMPAIGN UPDATE #5: The End is Nigh
Sup GEWPS, I have a few quick things to touch on.
PNP COMETH MARCH 2026
Excited to announce that I’ll have the Print and Play files out next month. It’s a bit off my original projection, but better late than never I suppose. I look forward to everyone getting a chance to play the game in all its gewpiness.
Manufacturing for the SHIFTED begins Q2 2026
Around the time that the PNP is sent out will be when Longpack games will be reviewing the files and prepping for manufacturing. I’m going to assume this process takes a few weeks, so my best guesstimate of when things are printing is Q2. I will provide an update as dates for this part become more clear.
Sorry for the delay gift
I’m going to provide a new promo card to all backers (physical and digital) as a little gift for missing my original delivery date. You will not have to do anything to get this, it will automatically come with your pledge.
This is actually may not be the end for SHIFTED
As I’ve been actively developing/testing SHIFTED, there’s a ton of cool new characters, missions, and ways to play that I’ve made post campaign. So I hope someday in the future I can revisit this game and make an expansion pack with all these modules. No official plans yet, but did want to put this out there if the fans ever want it.
That’s all folks

Project Update: POST-CAMPAIGN UPDATE #42: Updates and Downdates
Hello Gewps.
First, I'm sorry this update took so long. It's tough to write when the news is mostly delays, but I know from backing a lot of projects that silence is worse than bad news. So here's where things are at:
SHIFTED is Better Than Ever!
When I launched the campaign, SHIFTED was essentially finished. I just needed to lock the rulebook and send everything to manufacturing. But in the back of my head, I knew a few things (especially role balance) could be better. I didn’t want SHIFTED to be something that's played once and then lost in board game shelf purgatory.
Over the last few months, I've been testin' and tweakin' a ton, and I finally landed on a version that I'm much more excited about. It's still the same SHIFTED, just tighter, cleaner, and more replayable. It probably isn't going to shake up the social deduction world like Blood on the Clocktower, but I do hope it creates its own little weird lane with the people who really vibe with it.
Delivery
As far as the timeline goes, I’m committed to delivering the physical version of SHIFTED in 2026. The PnP version should arrive well before that, once I’ve fully locked the rules.
Thanks,
Lorre
Thanks,

It's been ~2 months since the mini-update and ~5 months since the last official update. Just curious on progress since then! Thanks!

Hello GEWPERS,
Before the BIG update, a quick status check:
I'm tying up some loose ends with the Print n' Play files. Backers who’ve completed their BackerKit surveys should see them in about 1–2 weeks
I’m holding off on locking surveys until November 30. There's only a few of you left, so should be plenty of time to wrap them up.
International shipping: I explored a few avenues, but we’re still looking at at least $20 USD to ship abroad. Which annoyingly is more than the game. I really hope in the future I can have better localization/distribution for SHIFTED and future title.
Questions or comments? PM me or email [email protected]
Thanks so much for the support!

A couple quick notes:
- You won’t be charged for shipping yet.
- You will be charged for any add-ons you select.
Print-and-Play files will be released shortly after surveys start coming in. I’ll post a separate update with all the details when those go live.
Thanks again for your patience and support.
