Project Update: Orders Locking in 48 Hours!
Fellow explorers!
We are making great progress on the adventure, with the manuscript back from the editor. More details will come in a future update! Right now, we're ready to start distributing any back catalogue PDFs if they are part of your pledge rewards. Here’s what you need to know:
- Complete Your Survey: If you haven’t completed your survey yet, please do so right now! You must complete your survey to receive your rewards.
- Orders Lock in 48 Hours: Now is your last chance to finalize your pledge rewards and snag any add-ons. After 48 hours, your order will be locked, and you won't be able to make changes.
- Back Catalogue Access: Once orders are locked, you'll receive an email with digital download links for items in our back catalogue that are included in your pledge rewards. Digital rewards will be distributed first via Backerkit, and later through DriveThruRPG.
- Addresses and Shipping Costs: If your pledge includes physical rewards, we will be locking addresses and collecting shipping amounts closer to out physical fulfilment dates. Due to fluctuations in global shipping costs, final costs for shipping are not yet available. We will keep you informed in future campaign updates about addresses and shipping.
Thank you once again for supporting our campaign!
Until next time!

How do retailers complete their pledges? There doesn't appear to be any retailer items in the pledge manager. Thanks!

Project Update: Surveys Released!
Fellow explorers!
Great news! Our survey smoke test went without issue, and today we have released surveys for all backers. Please check your email for your survey link and complete your survey promptly. This step is essential to ensure we have all the information needed to deliver your rewards.
For backers with physical rewards, due to fluctuations in global shipping costs, final costs for shipping are not yet available. We will be collecting shipping amounts closer to our physical fulfilment dates. We will use campaign updates like this one to let you know we will begin charging for shipping.

We’ve got lots of great products including Mothership items, system neutral sci-fi and fantasy tools, and even a Mörk Borg adventure. There’s something for everyone!

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Smoke Test! Progress Updates!
Fellow explorers!
We have some exciting updates to share with you:
- Survey Smoke Tests Begin: Reward surveys are ready! These surveys give us the information to delivery your rewards. We're sending out smoke tests to a small percentage of backers to ensure our reward surveys are set up perfectly. If you receive a survey today, please complete it promptly and help identify any issues. If all goes smoothly, surveys will be sent to all remaining backers in the near future.
- Final Edits in Progress: We're collaborating with our editor to finalize the manuscript. That means adding a little bit of content for utility, and streamlining existing content for clarity.
- Achievements in Development: We're working through drafts of all the unlocked achievements from the campaign. We can't wait to share these with you as they come together!
Thank you again for your support as we work through these important steps. We'll keep you updated as we make more progress!
Until next time!

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Preorder Store Open! Editing Underway!
Fellow explorers!
We’re excited to share the latest progress on What Was Left to Rot:
- Preorder Store Is Live: If you missed the campaign or want to share the project with friends, the preorder store is now open! Spread the word!
- Manuscript Update: The finished manuscript is now in the capable hands of our editor, ensuring it’s polished and ready for the next stage.
- New Classes Drafted: The first draft of the four new classes—Smuggler, Flesh Mechanic, Data Leech, and The Law—is complete, and we’re gathering peer feedback to refine them.
- Sticker Test Print: We’ve received a test print of the freebie “Infected” sticker for physical backers, and it looks fantastic.
- “In Case of Infection” Sheet: The draft text for this short guide is coming together nicely. We've decided to go the horror-comedy direction, and it’s full of dark humor and Company-speak.
- Backer Surveys Coming Soon: We’re finalizing the finer details of survey setup to ensure everything is accurate and smooth. Surveys will be sent out in the near future, so keep an eye on your inbox!
Thank you, as always, for your support and enthusiasm. We can’t wait to bring everything together for you! If you have questions feel free to reach out to us by email at [email protected].
Until next time!
