Project Update: Free Digital Pamphlet, Sticky Sheets, and Filthy Freaks: Stretch Goal Updates!

Howdy Dreamers,

With one more week to go into the campaign, we've unlocked another Stretch Goal: The OcuSec+Co. Sticker Sheet! Before that, check out the artwork that Scragend has been dishing out for Flatline on the Blocks:


Meet the Motes: Helm-controlled drones that OcuSec use to "protect and serve" the Spinal Crux. Some are available on the markets, and others only in Siphon-run black markets, if at all. Scragend came up with so many of these that he's working on developing them into a pamphlet.



All backers will receive free digital copies of this pamphlet at the end of the campaign!

This inspiration hit Scragend during the work on the Sticker Sheet, which has been continuing along nicely:

Added to all Bundles!


Scragend has finished The Circuit Writer NPC sticker and Bobo, the Lighthouse mascot.  Ben King also came along with a corporate logo sticker for Messina Mobility, the corpo scags who killed the metro in these parts of the Dream. We also have four more stickers lined up for this sheet:

  • MindOrb advertisement (the latest OcuSec technological fad)
  • Warship Museum wordmark (from Kin Krakenhund's block)
  • The Pandalorum flower, grown on Amorph Row (Amanda P.'s block) 
  • Order of Free Laborers logo, minor faction of the Faucet (Christian Sorrell's block)

Mothership Month mini-interviews:

Over the last couple of weeks, I (Chris Airiau) have been busy with Mothership interviews! Keeping the Mothership creator community healthy and thriving is super important to us, and to help out a few designers new to crowdfunding, I invited them onto my newsletter blog to talk about their projects!

Next Stretch Goal!

The Spinal Crux Warriors are ecstatic to announce the second to last Stretch Goal: four more pages added to Organ Failure, the Spinal Crux adventure zine! For this update, we're adding one adventure, and expanding one of the first three: 

  • MindOrb Heist expansion, by Christian Sorrell
  • The Hogg, a slasher adventure, by Chris Airiau

In MindOrb Heist, writer Christian Sorrell had soaked up so many steamy ideas for their single spread Health Spa adventure that the layout crunch was real. With this expansion, we'll get more NPCs, enemies, and specialized "treatment" rooms...

The Hogg is a new adventure by myself, Chris Airiau. The crew wakes up in medpods, their wounds healed. Cameras are in every corner, and The Hogg comes for them. The Hogg is a condensed adaptation of The Swine, injected with new inspirations like Manhunt (PS1) and Dexter Resurrection (2025). 

That's all for us. Thanks for your support, and until next time!

Signing off, 
Chris Airiau & the Spinal Crux Warriors
