Editing and layout is approaching completion for the 5e edition.Then, we’ll send the final PDFs to DriveThru to get the initial print proofs (which we’ll share images of in another update!) and make sure there are no last-minute changes to be made before we submit the final print and ship orders on the books and the decks. Once that is complete, we’ll give everyone two weeks’ notice that we are ready to lock BackerKit. We’ll also make a couple of minor updates to the Empyrean edition. Once we get these final chapters completed, we’ll post an update to let you know! At that point, we at Strange Owl Games will give it another pass, make sure the side bars point to the correct sections, and send out the PDF through BackerKit. We also have a couple of questions and stat blocks back in the developer’s hands for clarification). This is a good thing! It is taking more time than we thought, but the final product will be better for it.Ĭurrently, we have three chapters remaining to update in the 5e book ( Traversing the Unknown is in Layout, and Etiquette for the Referee and the Adventures are going through the final editing pass. We also incorporated feedback from backers who reached out to us about the draft rules. While the draft rules our freelancer produced are great, our editor had some questions the developer and writer had to work through and rewrite for rules clarification and ease of reading. We are learning to plan for the unexpected and will bake in more wiggle room into future timelines for the Campaign Kickstarter.Īdditionally, the 5e conversion is taking longer than we originally anticipated. When we gave our initial timeline for the PDF releases, we could not have anticipated something like this occurring. Strange Owl Games is a small company-with three full-time employees and several freelancers. Due to some of the comments we received, we’d like to explain further. We at Strange Owl Games believe in transparency, so let us take a moment to explain.Īs previously mentioned, some emergency medical issues slowed down our layout person. Where is it? While much progress has been made, it is not quite ready for your hands yet. Obviously, the Star Galleon in orbit is the 5e PDF.

It’s time for our monthly project update. We also plan to get our proofs in during this time, and will share pictures and updates as those come in!Īssuming all goes smoothly, we will be sending everything to DriveThru for print in September! In August, we will send out a notification approximately 2 weeks before we lock BackerKit, at which time you'll be charged for any add-ons you purchased from the store. We are also receiving text for the stretch goal adventures, which will promptly go to editing and layout. Going forward, we'll be doing a final update with minor grammatical/punctuation/cross reference type edits to both versions before we send them (and the cards) for print to get proofs made. We appreciate your patience as we worked out the final edits and hope you agree it was worth the extra effort. We just wanted to let you know the 5e edits and layout are complete! We will be uploading it to BackerKit tomorrow, so watch your email for that. Hope those of you in the US had a relaxing holiday weekend. ![]()
