Junksphere: A Sphere and Adventure for Troika!

Surveys Sent!

Thank you everyone who had a smoke test survey for getting them back to us! No one flagged any problems, so we've gone ahead and sent out all the surveys. But please do let us know if there are any issues.

On the production front, Christian got the second proof in today and reports being happy with the changes we made. Mine hasn't come in yet but I'm stoked to see it. That being settled, we should be able to move to production once we get enough of the surveys in to have a good idea of the order size we'll want to make. Thank you again for all of the support, we're excited to be so close to getting the book to you.

Smoke Tests Away!

The BackerKit has been approved, and the smoke tests have gone out! Once folks get those back and we make sure there aren't any issues, we'll be able to send out all of the surveys. If you get one of the smoke test surveys and there are any issues, feel free to reach out here, on BackerKit, or send an email to potatopublications [at] gmail [dot] com. Thank you again for all of your support, we're closing in on the home stretch!

I'm also very excited to announce Potato Publications next project. We've been asked by Golden Achiever to do the printing and fulfillment for Year 100 Million B.C., his wildly historically inaccurate prehistoric RPG. It's got a full system, a ton of random generators, and a huge wilderness sandbox to terrify and thrill your prehistoric humans. (The fulfillment isn't scheduled to occur until after we expect to have Junksphere finished fulfilling, so don't worry about it delaying this project!)

Proofs Arrived!

Hey everyone!

We got the proofs in this week! Pictures below. We're pretty happy with the overall quality, but we're going to do one more proof run just to check cover colors and try another option we were considering for the interior paper. That shouldn't delay fulfillment any though. On that front, we've got everything imported to BackerKit and are working on the smoke test for the surveys, so around 5% of you can expect that soon. Thank you again for all of your support. We're excited to get these books to you all!

Editing Done & Proofs Ordered!

Hi everyone!

We've got some exciting news to share today! The final edited version of Junksphere is off to Mixam and we should be getting our proof copies in the next couple of weeks. A big thank you to Jarrett Crader for handling this round of edits for us. I'm guessing a lot of you are familiar with his work, but if not, you can check out a lot of the stuff he's worked on and published at https://spacepenguin.ink. 

I'll be sure to share some pictures of the proof copies when they come in! In the meantime, BackerKit surveys should be going out between now and then so we can get an accurate count for our first print run. Don't hesitate to send a message on here or at potatopublications [at] gmail [dot] com if you have any questions in the meantime!
