Hey guys!
Me again, just popping in one more time to ask you to consider voting for Colostle in the 2022 Ennies awards. As an artist and creator I can't begin to tell you how incredible it feels to be nominated for an award like this, and I would be remiss if I didn't try my absolute hardest to do my best at making as many people aware as possible!
It feels so incredible to be recognised in this way and winning one of these prestigious awards could be huge for Colostle, and also for my career as a games designer, so I hope you don't mind me reminding you all one last time. The link below will take you to the voting page online, and if you choose to vote for Colostle it would mean the world.

Roomlanders!
You might be happy to hear that digital rewards are poised and ready to be released. These will be going to all digital backers and physical backers. Now that all the artwork for The Roomlands is complete, I have been able to create digital versions of all of the various books and journals and card decks and have now prepared them for download.
I am intending to send these out this weekend, but to do so, Backerkit requires me to have locked addresses. Locking addresses means you will no longer be able to log in and adjust your address in your Backerkit survey.
Don't worry though, if your address does change after I have locked addresses, but before I have sent out the rewards - just send me a direct message with your new address and I can manually change it at my end.
I will be locking addresses on Friday this week so if you have any last minute address changes you need to make to your order, please make them now - before Friday. Once the addresses are locked I will proceed to send out the digital rewards. You will receive them via Backerkit to the email address you registered your Kickstarter account with, so make sure you have access to that email account and make sure to check your junk if you don't see your rewards come through. I will announce by Kickstarter update once the digital rewards have been sent, so you know when to check.
I'm excited to start delivering on this Kickstarter, even if it is only the digital rewards so far. All physical elements are either printed or currently being printed and I will send out a picture of the finished collection of products once I have one!
Fulfilment of physical orders will begin in August as originally promised.
Thanks again team, more from me soon!

Hey Roomlanders!
Voting for the Ennies is now live! If you enjoy Colostle and would like another way to support it, voting for it in these awards would go a super long way and would really mean the world to me! Just being nominated for an award of this scale has done wonders for Colostle and the future of the game, but actually winning one could propel it even further.!
I will be flying out to Indianapolis for the awards ceremony and it would be amazing if Colostle won something! I would be so blown away!
thanks again for all your support of Colostle and for your vote! You guys are truly the best!

Things are nicely rumbling onward...

Hey guys!
Sorry its been a bit quiet from me lately, but when I'm quiet that usually means I am just cracking on with everything and this time is no exception! The reference screens are being printed, the job pack journals are all designed and ready to go to print, and I'm deep in doing all the artwork for the various job-pack card decks! They're looking super cool!
I have designed new covers for the job pack journals (see below) as the ones you saw before were only placeholder art! I'm really proud of the new designs, I hope you like them!
I intend to have everything drawn and designed by mid-July and then hopefully everything back from the printer and in my hands by the end of July. Then August will be a big month of shipping stuff out to you all. I am delighted to say we are firmly on track!
Once all the artwork is done, I will start sending out digital rewards, so you should start getting those around mid-July.
Right, back to the drawing board (and by that I mean iPad!)
