We're at the point of having accomplished most of our pre-planned Stretch Goals and having over 10,000 pledged, i'm hoping that we'll unlock the Book List Note Pad soon!
So let's talk about Extra Stretch Goals!
The First ~ At 16,000 I'll allocate specific funds to improve the current tech situation and secure the likehood of me being able to make games and art for another 10 years. To celebrate Every Backer will recieve a digital "sticker" sheet for printing and cutting at home (different from the Bookshop curios sticker) as a thank you. Don't worry The Wanderer's Bookshop is all backed up and first draft is on it's way to Brent our editor this week!
The Second ~ At £18,500 we add a new bookshop task supplement. Surpassing this goal early on means we can also make sure to allocate funds to add it to the physical print and digital zine along with the already unlock Events supplement, including fancy layout from Nala J Wu.
What do you imagine you'll want to do as the curator of your own magical bookshop? You get to choose our new task,Comment Below! I'll make a poll of all the non duplicate suggestions (including what doesn't already overlap with the current tasks).
The Third ~ At 21,000 we commision more art from our artists including Nala J. Wu.
Don't forget our Community Goals!
For example only 10 more Digital Community Copies to unlock expanded parallel play mechanics. What does that mean? Currently there is a short section on how you could parallel play if you wanted to. Expanded parallel play mechanics would include "relationship" building and how to establish some "rules/roles" in how you play together, aside from safety which is something that is discussed at the start. Also time and multiversal shenanigans.... it's fiction!
Join in the discussions to shout out Bookshops and i'll be drawing more cards today for more book recommendation prompts!
