ASPS is through editing! While it heads to layout to make it all pretty with art and proper page numbering, credits, and etc - all you ASPS backers have been sent a text only copy so you can dig in while you wait for the completed book! Been a long time coming, I know, but now you have at least a version of the game in hand to start with while we work to get you the finished product. <3 So check your emails!

Keepsakes backers, don't despair. The editor had some technology setbacks but is working hard to complete it soon, and we just brought on new seamstresses so the plushies will be completed soon and we'll be able to share pics of them then.

Happy New Year!

We hope your holiday season was a pleasant one, no matter what you celebrate!

ASPS is almost ready for layout. Our editor just graduated last month, which slowed things down briefly while they handled those arrangements and celebratory events. Things are back to full speed, with finishing touches being given to the sample settings to finalise them. Here's a peek at one of the maps:

We should definitely have a text only version we can release to you by month's end, as long as nothing else untoward arises while layout gets to work on adding the art and making it all look pretty. 

Keepsakes is a bit behind where we'd hoped to be. Our editor on that has had some life things that took precedence, and a recent computer issue that lost a chunk of the edits so they're now going back through the files to redo that. Hopefully we'll be back on track with that soon!

Plugging Along

ASPS is one chapter away from layout. 

Our Keepsakes editor has had some life things going on that have made progress there slower but we still expect it to be done soon. If things proceed as expected, we should have the ASPS PDF for folks in November and the Keepsakes PDF in December. Ideally we'll have both books and the rest shipping by Christmas.

In the meantime, we have sent via Backerkit a Quickstart guide for Keepsakes, and one for ASPS with additional Fox Magic content and character sheets, to all who backed for PDFs or books.

Our streaming team is also putting together a charity event on October 22nd - 23rd because we were asked to raise funds for a refugee camp via The Transgender Law Center's Black LGBTQ Migrant Project! We'll be running: Arkelon Chronicles, Bloodborne [a reskin of Lasers & Feelings], Fox Magic, Zin Never Dies, Metahumans Rising, Thirsty Sword Lesbians, Call of Cthulhu, Mothership, and three different Halloween themed D&D 5e games. If you want to help the charity, or just watch the games, follow us on Twitch to be notified when the games go live. 

And as always, you can find and interact with the whole team on Discord. Feel free to join us!

Backerkit, keeping in touch, and minor update

We are inching ever closer to fulfillment. The last of the art is being finalised for ASPS, and Keepsakes is heading into the next editing phase. Check out the latest colour proof we've gotten from the art team for a superhero with a disability here:

We are locking orders and charging cards on Backerkit now, so that we have final counts on things like the dice and plushies, since those will take the longest to complete as they are done by hand. At least 25% of you have still not completed your surveys! Please fill those out so that we have accurate numbers going into fulfillment. If you've lost the email, just head over to: https://asps.backerkit.com/ 

There are also some card charge errors from add-ons. Please check your card on file and update as necessary.

If you haven't already, join us on Discord! We have an active and growing community, and you'll have more direct access to the creative team to answer any questions you have and see more of what our various teams up to - from other ttrpg projects and collaborations, to podcasts, twitch live play streams, and more.

See you there, and we'll update here again when there's more progress worth noting.
