Project Update: πŸ¦…πŸ—“οΈ Murka Timeline is Finally Here!

I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date totally platonic professional Backerkit update with no romantic implications whatsoever!

What the hell is that rabbit doing here...?

New Astral Crystal Firearms! Art from the lovely Bianca Papalardo


The Murka fulfillment timeline is here!

First off, apologies for how long this took. As I'm sure you can imagine, there are a lot of moving pieces in putting together a schedule, organizing artwork, getting quotes from manufacturers, and coordinating with all the teams with hands on a given bookβ€”and we're making three books, so this took three times as long as I had originally estimated. That's on me; we've never taken on such a huge undertaking, and I underestimated what a lift it would be to get a complete picture.  

But no more waiting, here are the major milestones you can look forward to, distilled into a TLDR;, 
  • October 1st - Orders and Surveys are locked
  • October 18th - Arcana Americana Beta PDF is completed and released
  • December 6th - Chromatic Gamut and Restaurants & Retail Beta PDFs are both completed and released
  • December 20th - Books begin printing. After they're printed, the manufacturer will ship them overseas to us.
  • March 2nd - Books begin shipping from our warehouse here in the US to all backers

One of the biggest shifts we've made is hiring an additional layout artist to move us along quicker. This is going to allow both Chromatic Gamut and Restaurants & Retail to finish out their layout processes in parallel, saving us a boatload of time. 

Expect some more preview content from us for Arcana Americana soon, as we're trying to get this material into your hands as quickly as possible. You can expect additional preview content for the other two books as we go as well!

Thanks for your patience and understanding - this has been a transformative process and a monumental effort from everyone involved. We're moving as quickly as possible, and there are a lot of hands on this project, but as it's coming together, I couldn't be more proud. I really, really think you guys are going to like what's on the way. And once the books are in your hands, I think you'll feel that it's worth the wait.

Thanks again. Talk soon. <3


Yours across the plains of Midwesteros,
