A few people have asked for updates. We are still waiting to receive the next proofs. The process takes a while.

Physical Proofs Approved!!

Happy to report that the physical proofs have been approved :) 

The next step is for the print factory to make up a pre-production copy of the complete game for approval and, once approved, full-scale printing can begin :) 

The physical proofs were sent to me rolled up, but rather than wait until they flattened out, I thought you would all prefer a picture immediately, even if the quality is lower. 

Cheers,

Vince

Hello all,

As the printing process is moving along swiftly and smoothly, we are going to be closing the Backerkit next Monday, 9/29.

You will still be able to adjust your address if necessary by emailing me up until we are ready to ship the products, but we want to get as much accurate information and counts of products as possible!

Please check your backerkit info to make sure it is accurate and any add ons you want are added!!!

If you have any questions, email me at [email protected]

Sincerely,

Sarah

Printing Timeline - First Milestone!
6 months ago – Thu, Sep 11, 2025 at 04:01:43 PM

Hello all,

I wanted to send some more details about what to expect now that the game is at the printer.

The actual printing process generally takes 3-4 months (not including shipping time) if everything goes perfectly. I will update you each step of the way:

  1. Electronic Proofs - Received today!! Will have approved by Monday 9/15
  2. Paper (flat) proofs - Expect this about a month after electronic approvals.
  3. Final Proofs - Expect this about a month after Paper approvals. 
  4. Shipment - All product is created and we are moving on to the shipping process to our fulfillers and warehouse. 

Thank you all for your patience as we continue to get back on track, and improve our company and communication. I promise we are working on creating better systems everyday.

If you have any questions, you can always email me directly at [email protected]

Sincerely,

Sarah
