Project Update #9

Hi backers,

We've just sent out the digital PDF of Tand Fe, with the remaining zines to be delivered as soon as Luna has completed the layout. We hope you enjoy this first Carta game from Kat the Lore Mistress. Next up is Red Skies by Finley.

Thanks for your continued patience! Hatched Games and parent publisher Hatchlings Games are currently looking to change the way they crowdfund and publish their RPGs, with 2027 being something of a complete reset.

Many thanks,
Team Hatched

Project Update #8

Hi,

Sorry for the delayed update. All zines are now entering the layout stage after sensitivity reading was completed by Penny Blake. Tand-Fe will represent the template for the others (see below) and Josh and Luna are working together to get these complete in a timely manner.

We'll send the digital zines out to you all as soon as they're complete.

Many thanks,
Team Hatchlings

Project Update #7

Hello backers!

Just a quick progress report. All editing on zines will be complete by the end of the month, and Luna is in the process of finishing the layout on Tand-Fé (see below), which will provide that all-important template for the rest. All zines should be sent out digitally by the end of March.

In the meantime, Josh will put together the designs for the card deck and playing cloth while we order a sample box from our manufacturer in Spain.

As a little aside, Lucille Nual - our longtime collaborator at Hatchlings Games - is going to redesign our logo. More on that in March.

Many thanks,
Team Hatched

Project Update #6

Happy New Year to all our backers!

The project is progressing really well. All zines were completed in November, and are currently being edited ready for Luna's layout. We're starting with Kat's Tand Fe to establish a template for the other zines, as a consistent style guide was something we wanted from the very beginning.

Talking of style, Carly's spot art for the project is also complete. These illustrations (see below) will sit alongside Josh's mixed media pieces to give the games a really creepy atmosphere.

For the next update, we'll show some finished pages from Tand Fe and then we'll talk about who we're working with for the manufacturing.

Best wishes,
Team Hatched

Project Update #4

Dear backers,

The GAST zines are now complete after the final drafts met our Halloween deadline. We're delighted with the pieces from our guest writers and they all explore very different themes and horrors while innovating on the Carta system each time.

The next step is to have them edited and then designed with the finished covers, the new interior art by Carly (see the samples below), and then printed by Mixam here in the UK. We'll keep you updated with the new art and designs as they are produced.

Best wishes for now and enjoy the spooky season!
