Project Update: Update Thirteen: Work, work, work.

Hi there,

Just a quick update. We are progressing at a steady pace. All the new art we've commissioned is now delivered, so we're putting that into final spreads. There's been some small delays here and there, but we are almost at the finish line.
The most important thing is - expect the Pledge Manager to start soon, so we can gather all the information needed for shipping.

Meanwhile, please have a look at the new art from Kir Malov:

Birth of the Powered.



Best,
Paweł

Project Update: Update Twelve: Good News, Bad News, End of the Year News + lots of new spreads!

Hi everyone,

A couple of updates as we approach Anno Domini 2026.

Let me get the most important thing out of the way first. I tried really, really hard, but it is very likely that I will not be able to deliver the PDF before the end of the year. Over the last two to three months, an overwhelming number of things piled up all at once. This included serious health issues, administrative chaos (from several thousand books seemingly destroyed in transit, to unexpected US tariffs, and more), and two absolutely heartbreaking funerals, back to back, which left me unable to work for a good week.
It was simply too much to handle. Still, I pushed through to deliver Hellpower. I just need a bit more time for the PDF.

Now for the good news.
I realized that what I really needed was additional help after losing so much time for reasons listed above (and beyond). Because of that, I invited UnitSix, an amazing creator I have worked with on several projects already, to support me with the layouts. As expected, he delivered in a big way. See for yourselves:


 Of course, I have also been working on assembling pages myself. I cannot show everything yet, but here are two pages featuring artwork by the astonishing Kir Malov, whom I approached for additional illustrations: 


With all that said, I am officially pushing the PDF release to January 2026. We are very close to completion, and with extra help on board and most major issues behind us, it should be relatively smooth sailing from here.

One more thing. All backers will receive a free, exclusive Overman print as a token of gratitude for your incredible patience.

Thank you, as always, for your understanding and support.
Have a wonderful holiday season and a happy New Year.

Best,
Paweł

Hi everyone,

Hope you all are doing alright. You better be, cause the Powered are coming soon and they know no mercy!
Yep, we are still on track for the December release of the PDF! We are now working on layouts and on balancing some of the mechanics. We were supposed to start playtesting this month, but the game needed yet another rewrites - but we are closing on that, so expect sign-ups for the testing soon.

Here are some of the new spreads we can show (as there is a also a bunch ready waiting for the official release). Enjoy, and once again - thank you for your patience!





Best,
Paweł

Project Update: Update Ten: Progress report and an upcoming presentation.

Hi everyone.

It’s been a while, we know. But in that (mean)while we’ve made some solid progress!
  •  All the art is in (we might sneak in 2–3 more pieces),
  •  Huge chunk of the writing is complete,
  •  We’re now deep in editing, rewriting, and layout work.

On September 20th at 9 PM CEST / 3 PM EDT / 12 PM PDT, join us live on Heltung’s Discord for a special stream where we’ll:
  • Showcase new art,
  • Walk you through the book’s structure, chapter by chapter,
  • Explain some of the mechanics,
  • Reveal sample spreads.

Can’t make it? Worry not, the recording will go up on YouTube, and we’ll send you a full update in text as well.

And the big one: we’ll be announcing the release date. (Spoiler alert, it’s this year.)

I know you've been waiting long enough, maybe even too long, but this is our top priority and we are going to deliver the best possible product. 

To sweeten the wait, meet the D-Men, an X-Men–inspired team who are really, really evil.

Best,
Paweł
