It’s hard to believe that just a short while ago, the residents of the Verdant Isles held the existence of the Mushbys to be only a myth. Now we know that Mushbys are, in fact, quite real, and players are about to learn even more about them as Tales of Forgotten Memories takes them deep into the Mushby city of Polyporopolis. Players will explore the city, meet many new Mushbys, and help them reconnect the city to the Mycorrhizal Network.
Here is a sneak peek at a few of the Mushbys you can meet along the way!
So who are these adorable new characters? We have our trio, Tara, Yestin, and Guillermina, coworkers at the Polyporopolis Department of Public Works. Tara is known for her wit; no matter the topic of conversation, she’s always got a clever joke, biting insight, or swift retort, and her repartee is sprinkled with seemingly countless scientific and historical references. Yestin is a very “by the book” sort of engineer, taking his time to gather all the relevant information before starting a new project, from building codes to soil tests. And Guillermina is the sort of Mushby that’s always seeking excitement, and gets a real thrill from some of the more risky aspects of civil engineering, like working on top of buildings.
Below you’ll find Diometra, a young diplomat who's just a few years into her career with the Polyporopolis Diplomatic Service.
I hope you enjoyed this little peak at Tales of Forgotten Memories. Next time I'll pop in with some Tales of Wolfham updates!
We just wanted to take a second to say thank you for all your support during the Teatime Adventures: Campfire Tales campaign! Over the course of its run, you all managed to unlock four additional Tea Pets and an additional tea blend! (We didn't keep track of how many marshmallows everyone ate, but I know I ate quite a few!)
So what's next?
We will be busy working on getting everything ready to go to the printer! We won't bother you too much with emails, expect one from us every three months or so plus when we have exciting news or new art to share! If you'd like to stay in touch with us between updates, be sure to join our fan Discord, where you can chat with community members, share cute pet pictures, and stay connected to the Snowbright crew and our many projects. And if you ever have questions, don't forget you can always email us at [email protected]
We hope you all have a wonderful holiday season, and once again, thank you so much for all your support!
We made it to our biggest stretch goal yet!!! Thanks to you, we have unlocked the $50,000 stretch goal, and now every backer who pledges for a Tea Set tier or higher will receive a brand new tea blend with their pledge for free!
And the winner of the tea blend naming poll.... Midnight Moonlight
Wow, we can't wait to try a cup of Midnight Moonlight tea on a cold autumn evening. If you haven't pledged for one of the tea set tiers, there's still time to get yours!
Is it also time for some holiday cookies yet? Find all kinds of tasty baked goods in Campfire Tales!
New Stretch Goal: Tea Pet Vote!
We have not one, not two, but three new Thanksgiving-themed tea pets for you to vote on. Check the poll at the end of this update to cast your vote. The winning tea pet will be added to the game as a new adoptable tea pet. Don't wait though, the poll will close when we hit our next stretch goal!
Meet the Snowbright Team in Philadelphia
That's right, almost the whole Snowbright crew will be heading down to Philadelphia for PAX Unplugged in just a few weeks. If you want to come say hi in person or snag some convention only merch and giveaways, we'd love to see you there! You can find us at booth #3926 for the thrilling conclusion to the Campfire Tales campaign - which ends on the last day of the show!
Thank You!
I know, I know. We say it in every update... but we mean it! We are so thrilled to be making this game for you, and we can't wait to hear about all of the characters, stories, and sessions that you play.
From everyone here at Snowbright, thank you and happy holiday season!
Oh boy do we have some spooky new surprises for you today! THANK YOU to everyone who has pledged so far, and if you haven't pledged yet - now is a great time to do so while we have these new mid-campaign bonuses available!
Third Stretch Goal Unlocked!
You unlocked the third stretch goal, way to go everybody! We will be welcoming the fan-submitted Chai-chilla tea pet into the world of the Verdant Isles. Spicy but sweet!
New Halloween Bonus 🎃
We've announced a new mid-campaign pledge bonus!
Everyone who pledges to the campaign before Halloween will automatically get a set of new extra spooky Harmony spells to use in your games!
So if you haven't pledged yet, now is a great time to do that before this bonus expires! And if you've already pledged... you're already in! Congrats!
$50,000 Stretch Goal - More Free Tea?!? 🫖
If we can make it to $50,000, we have something really special in mind... and that something is more tea, of course!
We'll add a FOURTH tea blend to the Campfire Tales Tea Blends meaning that everyone who is backing at a Tea Party Set or higher will get not three but FOUR bags of expertly custom blended Campfire Tales tea in addition to any other teas in their pledge.
Here's where we need your help! 1) Share the campaign with your friends, communities, and online in cozy gaming places to help us reach our stretch goal!
2) Help us name this new tea blend! Go ahead and vote below.
Whichever option has the most votes at $50,000 will be the new tea blend name. Choose carefully! Friday has synesthesia (she tastes words!) and makes tea blends based on the "flavors" of the words in the name and adventures. So the name of the tea will have a big impact on what this new magical blend will be!
Thank you again to everyone for making this project such a success! Happy fall, y'all!
Hello campers! We're writing to you again today because we've blown past the 2nd stretch goal already and are nearing our third!
For the first stretch goal, you voted for and unlocked the "Pupkin" tea pet! A friendly pupper often found tromping around in pumpkin patches. They have a unicorn-like horn that twists up as they grow older, making them blend in quite well in their favorite locale! Check out the art for the pupkin below!
In the meantime, you voted for the Cinnamon Sugar Glider as the next tea pet. We can't wait to meet them!
And we have a very special FAN poll for the third stretch goal. Which of these two fan submissions do you want to see added as the next autumn tea pet?? Vote soon! The poll will lock at $35,000 in funding!
As always, thank you for your support, for sharing this project online, and for all of your comments! We love reading them over here at the studio!!!
