Whew, October flew by faster than I would have liked. I'm still in the process of wrapping up the final beta packet for Distal. After that, I'll be moving on to final layout for the book proper. Read on below for a breakdown.
Final Beta Release (Two Weeks-ish) In the next couple of weeks, you'll get a whole new version of the beta. This one has the full level range, monsters for all tiers of play, expanded (and revised) rules, and looks pretty close to a final product, without the art and embellishments that will tighten the book up.
You'll receive an email when your downloads are ready, so be sure keep an eye out!
Full Digital Release (December) It's looking like December for the full digital release, at this point. This is in line with earlier expectations, but I was really hoping to jam through it before then, since I had some momentum going into August/September. But, alas.
Full Hardcover Release (Q1/Q2 2025) For the hardcover release, nothing new here. We're still on track to get books out in Q1 (Q2 at the very latest), same as the original schedule.
Digital Digest (for October/November)
Given the backup on this final beta release, the October digest is going to come in a wee bit late, but it'll break down some of the changes that went into this final version of the beta, and discuss the Laithe lineage, which was one of the stretch goals we didn't quite hit during the BackerKit campaign.
I'll be sure to check in again once the beta lands.
