Hey y’all! We hope spring is bringing some pep to your step! We’re really enjoying the warmer weather and look forward to some outdoor gaming time 🦋
Us (Lilly) seeing the first butterfly in months.
We wanted to let you know earlier than later with an update on this campaign’s projected timeline.
In our update last month, we were hopeful to receive a pre-production copy to officially approve for mass production to begin in March. Unfortunately, we still have not received those samples due to production delays in the factory and mis-deliveries from couriers.
The original timeline had us approving samples over CNY and production beginning when the factory opened. The factory was unable to deliver the samples on that timeline and sent them at the beginning of March instead. Unfortunately, that package was misdelivered by the carrier and despite Austin driving around his town looking for them, we were unable to recover them. We are waiting on additional samples to be made and sent now.
While we originally planned to fulfill this campaign in June, the production delays will likely push that date to the autumn timeframe with a target month of August. Luckily, the harder samples involving the making of molds (like the metal hazard tokens and metal dice) are already completed, and they look great! So we just need to review the gameplay content like the cards, cubes, and boards when they come in.
Though we are still waiting on the main samples, we did receive some new samples of the boxes! 🎁
This is the Moonrollers box which is now slightly darker and more angsty than our prototype 🧛
Then we've got the Atlas box, a gloriously sleek solution to store all of your add-ons for superior shelf organization 🤌
And here is a size comparison for those two boxes!
We also got some of the standard hazard tokens in and they are looking dangerously cute 🥰
The die cut pattern will be improved for final printing.
We're hoping to receive the MPC within the next few weeks so we can share an official preview of the game and approve for mass production to begin in April. We will continue keeping you updated about the status of production!
Our original sample package in transit :')
Also, our Veiled Fate Tribunal Kickstarter campaign is currently live and we're already over 800K in funding! 🤯 It's incredible how much support we've seen, and it's still open until April 2, 2024 if you're interested in a great strategic deduction game for 2-8 players!
