Attention, Galactic Citizens!

Attention, Galactic Citizens!

We have an important update for you regarding Project EOS Rise!

Firstly, let me address that their has been a delay in manufacturing. Rest assured, this is a delay that I willingly undertook to ensure an exceptional gaming experience for all of you. Our incredible partner, Hero Time Manufacturing, has wholeheartedly embraced an idea I had for the player boards. However, upon seeing the finished component, they and I felt it didn't exude the premium quality I envisioned.

With the manufacturer's guidance, I made the decision to pivot slightly and introduce a finish to the player cards. This adjustment will elevate the components to the level of premium excellence I had always dreamt of.

Consequently, the completion of manufacturing will be pushed back by two weeks, extending beyond the initially anticipated deadline. But fear not! I firmly believe in delivering the absolute best product possible, and I'm willing to stall momentarily to ensure an unparalleled gaming adventure awaits you.

Now, brace yourselves for the extraordinary news I'm about to unveil!

Over the years, numerous players have reached out to me with awe-inspiring ideas for an expansion. And guess what? The time has finally come to embark on this exciting endeavor. I'm thrilled to announce that the first expansion for Project EOS Rise, tentatively named "Aliens & Anomalies," is currently in development.

In "Aliens & Anomalies," the intrepid crew of the Starship EOS will encounter four new Alien spaceships, traversing the vast universe with endless possibilities for interaction. Let me give you a glimpse of what awaits:

  1. The merchant ship will grant the crew access to unique equipment, empowering their mission while introducing a vibrant marketplace for groundbreaking technology.
  2. Prepare yourselves for an epic showdown with the marauder—a formidable foe that demands caution and strategic planning. Conquering this adversary will bring forth extraordinary rewards.
  3. The collector ship will seek relics from across the galaxy, creating an opportunity for players to exchange these artifacts for exclusive rewards, truly enriching their gameplay.
  4. Behold the gambling den! Here, players will unlock a plethora of luck-based activities. From advantageous outcomes to the potential need for debt repayment. Remember always pay your debts or else fall victim to the wrath of the bounty hunter guild.

And that's not all! The expansion also features the intriguing Anomalies section. Prepare to face new challenges as you navigate the uncharted darkness of space. Encounter treacherous black holes, energy nebulas, and quantum time gates. These mysterious obstacles will present you with thrilling new choices as you fight to safeguard humanity.

Now, I must emphasize that the development of the Aliens & Anomalies expansion is still in its developing stage. This is where you come in! Join me on this exhilarating journey by sharing your incredible ideas for technology and space anomalies you'd love to see incorporated into the game. Your input will help shape the game mechanics and ensure an unforgettable experience for all.

Farewell for now, 

James
