Last Light Radio
Hey y'all,

As I mentioned last update, in lieu of Bonnie's music stretch goal, you're instead getting an extra spread for Last Light Station. This location was cut from the original, and slots right into HAWU Hall. This location has been expanded upon with another NPC, glitchy synth cats, and a "What's Playing?" table with some story seeds.


You should have received an email with the PDF and plain text file. If not, you can find the downloads here:

https://last-light-station.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards

As for distribution, Space Penguin Ink is still working through it, but have everything in their warehouse and are aiming to begin by the end of the month. I'll check in if anything changes, otherwise you'll hear from me after physical fulfillment has started! 

Signing off,
Joshua

SHIPPING! (and a stretch goal update)
First off, the good news! This is not a drill, y'all: it's shipping time! Space Penguin Ink is beginning the process this week. I don't have many details beyond that, but as anyone in the Mothership scene knows, SPI do fantastic work. I'll check in as necessary, but expect to start seeing things ship in the near future!

Now, the not so good news. You should have received all of your digital rewards save for one of the stretch goals: Bonnie's karaoke tracks. Unfortunately, Bonnie has had to step away from the project, but I still want to deliver something extra, as a thank you for your support.

So, more good news! I'll be sending out the PDF of a one-pager detailing a new location called Radio Last Light. Helmed by DJ Vilja, I'd been cooking up this idea for some time, but space constraints in the OG zine kept me from seeing it through. You'll have this by the end of October, which is around when some of you will be receiving your physical rewards. I'll check back in when that goes out. 

Until then,
Joshua

September / Zine reveal!
Hey y'all,

Let me start with some printing updates! The test prints I mentioned last time came out incredible, and everything is currently printed or wrapping up this week. Below are some images of the zines and postcard, along with the printable bookmark.



Here's a peek inside the riso version:



I'm very excited to get everything into your hands. Right now, I'm awaiting those final riso prints as I mentioned before. Once they're here, the zines and postcard are off to Space Penguin Ink for fulfillment. It's still looking like we're in the queue for October distribution, and I'll update y'all once that's kicking off. 

Kindly,
Joshua

Printing and fulfillment updates!
Hey y'all!

Checking in with the monthly update on Last Light Station, but not a whole lot new to report! You should have received the digital rewards (aside from Bonnie's music, the stretch goal that is still being worked on!). If you're having trouble accessing any of the digital rewards, you can find these items at the following link:

https://last-light-station.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards

Regarding printing, I'm currently waiting on the prints for the regular and riso print zines, as well as the postcards! Once I check them over and confirm everything looks good, they'll be off to Space Penguin Ink! I chatted with them today, and they confirmed we're looking at fulfillment taking place around the end of September or early October. I'll keep everyone posted if anything changes, but that puts us right on schedule. I'm very excited to have the zine in everyone's hands.

If you have pals who missed out on the campaign, and are eager to check out the digital version, it's now available on both RPG Trader and itch.io. 

Thanks agian for your support and making Last Light Station happen! I'll be checking in once I have a more solid fulfillment timeline, probably mid to late September. 

Until then,
Joshua

New PDF and more stretch goal content!
Hey y'all,

A quick check in! The PDF had a few design tweaks (including one weird phrasing in the text for the Clinic) after looking over the test prints. The FINAL final PDF (labeled Last Light Station v1.1) is available in your digital rewards on Backerkit. Additionally, all but the music stretch goal have been completed. In that same digital rewards section you should see the VTT assets (including maps and tokens), the vendor handouts, and the bookmark reference.

Also, the maps for the Mothership Companion App have been officially added! You can find those by hitting "Browse Maps" in the Mothership VTT. Those maps are also available as PNG files in the VTT assets package. Thanks to the developer Wind for making it so easy!

If you're having trouble accessing any of the digital rewards, you should be able to find these items at the following link:
https://last-light-station.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards

The instructions for printing the bookmark are with the download, but not essential. If you want an oversized bookmark, just hit print! Otherwise, I recommend printing at 75% scale, fold in half, then use packing tape to secure the bookmark. Here's how mine 
looks!


Personally, I love these kinds of GM aids. While Last Light Station isn't a massive zine, having quick stats and map at the ready seemed like a no-brainer. Of course, I welcome your feedback, as it's the first time I've tackled something like this.

Other Updates:

Bonnie's hard at work on the music stretch goal, and I'm excited to share what they're cooking up! These are two original songs which will come with a lyric sheet, for those Crews who REALLY wanna lean into karaoke at Tow's End.

Secret Room Press, who are handling the riso version of the zine, are hard at work doing test prints, while T.Z. Wolfson works to make the necessary adjustments for the final print file. The regular zines will be going to print later this month. 

As for fulfillment, we're on track to finish early still, though not as early as I'd hoped. Space Penguin Ink has a few projects in line ahead of us, so we're looking at distribution in September. I'll keep everyone updated when I have more details, but in the meantime, hope you dig the digital stuff! You'll hear from me again, new info or not, in about a month.

Until next time,
Joshua

VTT Assets, NPC Character Sheets, and add-ons
Hey y'all!

You should have received an e-mail (hopefully just one) with a link to access the VTT assets for Last Light Station, as well as the stretch goal NPC character sheets. I've also distributed Hecate Cassette Archive and Radio Free Hekate PDF/digital assets.

If you're having trouble accessing any of them, you should be able to find these items at the following link:
https://last-light-station.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards

Here's a peek at some of the character sheets:


And the additional maps (which I'm working on getting added to the Mothership Companion App!):

One last note on the Last Light Station PDF! I caught a couple of small formatting things that are being changed prior to printing. Once we're off to print, I'll send out the final version of the PDF. Alright, enjoy digging in... and be sure to let me know how your crew fare at Last Light Station!
