Hello Everyone!
We've got some exciting news! Next week we will have a near-finished version of the book for everyone to see! We're still implementing edits and adding art, but this will be the first look at the book fully put together.
New Podcast Episode: 3 New Subclasses
In this week's Podcast: Episode Thirty-Five, Jeremiah and Adam talk about new subclass ideas. Join them as they discuss how they come up with subclasses that fit into your world theme and what ideas make for fun mechanics. There are good ideas, there are bad ideas, and then there's FARMERS.
As always, I hope you all have an amazing weekend and we'll chat soon!

Hello Everyone!
This week is a quiet week for us. Right now we have our heads down working on the book's layout. While you wait for us to finish that up, here's a Podcast Episode!
Chapter Draft Reviews
We need your help! If you haven't seen them already, we've been releasing chapters from the book for you to look over. These chapters are about 90% complete, as layout and art may or may not be missing depending on the chapter. That said, before we put the final stamp of approval on these chapters, we want the community to see it first. We've had our editors look through everything already, but we understand with a book this big, we are bound to miss something.
Anyone interested in seeing a sneak peek of the book and helping us out can check out the Review Chapters we've released below. You'll also find a survey, which you can fill out if you see anything out of place.

New Podcast Episode: Ghibli Style Locations
In this week's Podcast: Episode Thirty-Four, Jeremiah and Adam Talk about how they accidentally copied a Studio Ghibli Movie when making a location, followed by their chat on how they can fix that location to make it unique to the setting.
As always, I hope you all have an amazing weekend and we'll chat soon!

Mini Update & New Podcast Episdoe

Hello Everyone!
In this week's update, we've got a mini-project update and a new Podcast Episode.
Book Project Update
Right now we're in full edit and layout mode. We've been taking community suggestions alongside countless read-throughs to get this book looking as perfect as we can make it. As it currently sits we plan to have a fully laid-out book for everyone to see in mid-October. You'll see a few more drafts between now and then, but expect those to be smaller.
In short, we're wrapping things up and preparing for the next big steps.
Accessory Update
Most of the accessories made for the Kickstarter are being produced alongside the book, as they'll be made using the same manufacturer. When the book is in production, so will the rest of our accessories.
There are, however, a few that will be made separately. These are the Early Bird D20, STLs, and Cassette. All of these are much easier to produce, and so they have been put on the back burner until the book layout is complete.
Chapter Draft Reviews
We need your help! If you haven't seen them already, we've been releasing chapters from the book for you to look over. These chapters are about 90% complete, as layout and art may or may not be missing depending on the chapter. That said, before we put the final stamp of approval on these chapters, we want the community to see it first. We've had our editors look through everything already, but we understand with a book this big, we are bound to miss something.
Anyone interested in seeing a sneak peek of the book and helping us out can check out the Latest release "Friends and Foes" or the previous week's chapter "Magic Items". You'll also find a survey, which you can fill out if you see anything out of place.

New Podcast Episode: How to Start a Campaign In Obojima!
In this week's Podcast: Episode Thirty-three, How to Start a Campaign In Obojima!, Jeremiah and Adam chat about how they would start a campaign in Obojima. Tune is as they talk about how they view the world, the ideal levels to play in Obojima, and what kind of gameplay they personally enjoy.
SIDE NOTE- We've fixed the upload Issue and the missing podcast episodes are on all the appropriate platforms!

Hello Everyone!
Sorry for the silence on our end. I (Jeremiah) have been away from the office for the last two weeks dealing with some personal things and taking a mini break. That being said, the rest of the team has had their heads down as they've worked on implementing your edits from the last few chapter draft reviews, and building out new chapters for you to see. This week have a new chapter draft and a new podcast episode for you to check out.
This Week's Chapter Draft Reviews
We need your help! If you haven't seen them already, we've been releasing chapters from the book for you to look over. These chapters are about 90% complete, as layout and art may or may not be missing depending on the chapter. That said, before we put the final stamp of approval on these chapters, we want the community to see it first. We've had our editors look through everything already, but we understand with a book this big, we are bound to miss something.
Anyone interested in seeing a sneak peek of the book and helping us out can check out the Latest release "Magic Items" or the older chapter "Potion Brewing". You'll also find a survey, which you can fill out if you see anything out of place.
BIG NOTE- Our artists are finishing up the potion art as we speak. So, you can expect to see some missing potions and reused potion art in this Draft.
