 Thank you all so much! You're amazing in your support of this project. Let's keep it up and get some of those stretch goals!

Promos and map goodness!

Hey, everyone. Things are continuing to chug along here. We're so close to hitting that funding goal! Just a wee push is all it would take.

I figured we could give you a little teaser about that promo today: Serpent Slumbering Beneath the Island.

 Doesn't that look great? Art, mechanics, and story all come together perfectly, and we're sure you'll love it.

We've also gotten several questions about the canonical map and the playmat, so I figured we could address that here. The canonical map is, in the fiction, what the island "actually looks like." We have an artist hard at work right now, and below is a sample of what the style will be. This is just an art style sample, so expect things to change.

 I hope this all looks good! Thank you again for all your support. Let's keep this discussion going!

What a great start!

Seriously, every one of you backers is fantastic. We're closing in on the end of the first 48 hours, and we could barely be happier. Thank you so much for all you've done. 

It's been great to see all the discussion happening, and I hope most of your questions have been answered by now. There are a few new additions to the FAQ that we hope will help, including a list of group buys!

We're rapidly approaching full funding for Spirit Island. At that point, we will have secured enough to publish it for sure, and everyone who backed for a copy of the game will also get the promo spirit Serpent Slumbering Beneath the Island!

After that, we get to move on to the custom sculpts for the Invaders. We really would love to do this because we feel that it would not only look nicer, but be thematically appropriate. We've always had the vision of wooden components for the spirits and the Dahan being contrasted sharply with plastic components for Explorers, Towns, and Cities. Natural meets synthetic; man against nature. Let's all work together and make this happen!
