13 days ago – Fri, Nov 08, 2024 at 01:26:14 PM

Hello Everyone!

There is a lot to talk about so let's jump into it.

PDF Release

The Official PDF will be released to all Kickstarter backers and pre-orders next week! We've taken all of the community edits you've sent in over the past few months, along with a visual update to the layout and art from the book draft, and implemented them into one heck of a PDF. If you purchased a copy of the PDF, you can expect to see an email with a download link on Friday the 15th.

Book Production

Book Production starts Next week. We've sent off the final print files to our manufacturer, and they'll be working on printing right away. As some of you know, we started production of the Kickstarter accessories last month, so our book printing will slip seamlessly into that production line. We're incredibly excited to get these in everyone's hands!

As we get more information on this timeline, we'll be sure to let everyone know right away!

Locking Addresses & Charging Cards

Because we're finally at this stage in our production, we'll be locking down your addresses on Wednesday the 13th. If you wish to alter your address, please log in to BackerKit to make any appropriate changes. Once addresses have been locked, we'll be charging cards on Friday 15th. For those unfamiliar with the term, "Charging Cards" means we'll charge your shipping costs and any add-ons you may have included in your BackerKit order.

If you have any questions about this process, please feel free to reach out through Email or Kickstarter Message.

New Podcast Episode: Awakened Animals

In this week's Podcast: Episode Thirty-Nine, Jeremiah, Adam, and Ari chat about how animals on Obojima become merchants, shopkeepers, wizards, and so much more. Join us as we delve into curios magics on the island that bring animals from normal to extraordinary.
