Project Update: Post-Campaign Update 2: Pledge Manager NOW!
Hello!
It is definitely trending towards late rather than early July, but the important thing is that the pledge manager is now open!
You should all be receiving your survey links via email today (they may already be there, in fact) unless you selected Pay Over Time for your pledge, in which case you won't get your survey until you've paid your final installment.

YOUR DIGITAL DOWNLOADS
Digital downloads for all the existing DIE books - the core rulebook, the quickstart, and the scenario collections - are set up, so in principle you should get your files once your survey is done.
Accessing your downloads works like this:
1. Check your email (including your spam/junk) for a message with a direct link
2. If there's no email, log in to Backerkit, click on your profile icon in the top right corner, then on Your Pledges and Surveys in the dropdown
3. Find DIE: Metadungeon and click on it
4. Scroll until you see Survey, and click on View Order, just beneath it
5. Scroll to the Get Your Digital Downloads header, tap it, and go where it tells you
6. ???
7. Play DIE
I have not distributed digital downloads this early in a project before, and am uncertain whether Backerkit will reliably email you about your downloads when you do your survey. So once you've done so, give it a couple of hours, check your email and then check directly in Backerkit (as above) and if you don't see all the downloads you're expecting, email [email protected] and Lovely Jim will tell me to fix it.

DIGITAL DOWNLOADS VIA OUR WEBSITE
There's an option in the survey to receive your downloads through rowanrookanddecard.com as well as through Backerkit. That's not immediate: we'll wait until the Metadungeon PDF is ready and process those requests then. Backerkit downloads, however, are right now.
WHY IT TOOK LONGER THAN I SAID
I did say I'd send out surveys in early July, and I didn't. Purely and simply: we ran another crowdfunder. (We're still running it - it's for Children of Time, where you can design entire civilisations and then plague them with crises, and if you like DIE's emotional intensity, you're going to have a real good time expanding it to a societal scale.)
We are, as a company, trying to be mindful of the amount of email you get from us. A lot of you would have received several emails about Children of Time and I didn't want to clog up your inbox further with the irritatingly frequent "done your survey?" "do your survey!" and "your survey is lonely uwu" emails that pledge managers generate when there was interesting stuff about shared narratives and uplifted pangolins to read.
Anyway, that's a really long update to say "surveys ready", so I'm going to stop there. Back in August for an update on the Metadungeon itself!
Look after yourselves,
