Shipping complete!
hello all! I have shipped all packages and provided the tracking information to backerkit.
you should have received an email from Pirate Ship with your tracking info and you'll receive another from Backerkit once they process the data.
As far as I understand, this completes fulfillment: no digital or physical rewards remain. Reach out to me with questions and I'll answer them ASAP, or if you have any issues with shipments, I will correct those immediately.
I will be out of town on vacation next week but let me know when you start receiving your books and if you have any issues!
Enjoy!
P.S. I'm going to let BackerKit's robots off the chain for my next project. I am unsure of how spammy it will be but take a look if you like Scooby-Doo inspired eldritch horror. I'll make another update here as that gets closer to launching.
P.P.S. I'll also do a wrap up of the finances of this project on personal blog once I'm back from vacation. Spoilers: I lost money, but it was worth it.
P.P.P.S. If you like the book, consider subscribing to my newsletter at twilitgrotto.com. Three to six emails a year, with just a couple of recommendations, stuff I've been playing, and usually some self-promotion.

fulfillment update: books ordered!
Hello everyone! Slightly behind schedule, but here's the current update:
- I've locked orders
- books have been ordered
- Stickers, backlist books, and shipping supplies are here and in hand
- Digital downloads have been configured to kick off once cards are charged
- Once I have shipping confirmation from the printer, I'll charge cards and begin the process of shipping, hopefully next week.
Some additional notes:
The single volume print reward for this Backerkit is a one-time edition. Printed in A5, full color, contains both funnels. Digital rewards will reflect how the titles will be distributed in the future: a rules supplement and two letter sized PDF funnels. This is what will arrive in your DTRPG accounts. If after distribution of existing orders, any backer of this project prefers that format, I will make POD versions available at cost, just send me an email to [email protected]
Speaking of which, to make the process smoother, I will be using the new Backerkit/DTRPG integration rather than sending complimentary copies via the DTRPG interface. We will see how it goes. I'll let you know when that begins, it is configured to kick off automatically when cards are charged.
Any questions, reach out to me - [email protected]! I'll be in touch again when shipping has begun.

Final steps
I received my proof copy this weekend, it all looks very good.
I'm just making a couple tiny adjustments this week and then I'll be locking orders, placing the order with Mixam, and charging cards.
Digital rewards will be released on Backerkit around the same time.

Proof ordered!
Home stretch folks; edits have been made, final art produced, proof is ordered. Once that arrives and looks good, I'll be charging cards and placing the final order. If you haven't filled out your survey, please do so!
Proof is estimated to arrive by July 20ish and I plan to move pretty quickly after that.
If you're American, I hope you're enjoying a pleasant Independence Day! And I hope everyone, anywhere experiencing the heats is staying cool and safe.

Map #1
Hey all, still awaiting final revision notes and one more piece of art work. Should be soon! I'm eager to get this thing printed and into my hands and yours. I'm already gearing up for my next projects (a Scooby-Doo inspired Cthulhu Eternal adventure AND the next adventure in this setting) but I'll save any more words on that until these funnels are out.

Hi Matt! Things are looking good though one question. I see two downloads labelled Moth and Moth #2. I downloaded both and check and they are both Moth.pdf. Just checking is there supposed to be two distinctly different files?

Well: quick additional update. Books are on their way to me so I will kick off the charging of the cards in Backerkit. I'm away this weekend but I will *fingers crossed* hopefully be shipping everything next week!
