We've had a great first day, and things are going to get even better as we continue on. It's already time for our next manuscript section!
Just before we get to the great stuff, we're gonna touch on the good stuff with an update on Stretch Goals.
Because we've unlocked our first goal and got a new Add On option for backers pledging to a reward that inlcudes a hardcover!
ACHIEVED! - At $20,000 in Funding - New Add On: Storyguide Screen
NEW ADD ON: STORYGUIDE SCREEN - A three-panel Storyguide Reference Screen with charts and information for running a Jadestorm game will be created and offered as an Add On to any hardcover reward tiers for +$25
I'll be adding this to the Add On menu shortly:
and now, let's set up our next Stretch Goal, which offers a bonus reward to anyone pledging to a tier that includes the Jadestorm PDF:
At $30,000 in Funding - READY-MADE CHARACTERS PDF
READY-MADE CHARACTERS PDF - Do you want to game but your players aren’t sure what to play? Looking for inspiration to get you into the world of Jadestorm? These five characters are ready to make their mark in the world of Eos! This PDF will be added to the rewards list of all backers receiving the Jadestorm PDF as one of their rewards.
A bonus reward for backers, and new content for the game. This stretch goal also provides a foundation to buikld some future rewards upon.
Now let's get to today's fun stuff!
Draft Manuscript Previews
Over the course of the next 4 weeks, backers will receive the entire current draft manuscript for Jadestorm, but it's not going to come to you all in one go. The previews will come out in jade-sized installments throughout the campaign. This helps me seem interesting over the next 28 days, but it's more about guiding the conversation and helping steer feedback for the developers.
Because they want your feedback! These manuscript previews are of the current draft manuscript – the document in its latest, approved form. This may not be the final form after editing and any additional development, but you can consider it about 95% finished, so keep that in mind.
In fact, you can help guide the team through the next stages of development by providing feedback on these manuscript previews! The Onyx Path team has set up a special Feedback Form just for campaign backers for this very purpose: <Jadestorm Feedback Form>
Remember, thanks to BackerKit sorcery, these download links are visible to Backers only - you must be logged in and reading this on the website to have access to the manuscript preview links. So, if you're reading this via e-mail, click that "Reply to this Update" or "Learn More" button on the bottom and I'll see you below the Jadestorm title logo.
