Hey there, amazing backers of Project EOS Rise!

I know it's been a while since my last update, but I promise you, behind the scenes, I've been hard at work making this game the best it can be! I'm thrilled to share with you some exciting progress I've made.

First things first, I have updated the TableTop Simulator version with all the new files and even added a mini-expansion. How cool is that? You can try out the game right now by clicking on this link --> https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2037760847

I have also submitted all the files to our manufacturing partner, who is finishing up all the Woodend components as we speak. Once they're done, a pre-production copy will be sent for approval, and if everything looks great, we'll commence mass production! Yes, you heard that right, production is just around the corner!

While we wait for manufacturing, I've been busy collecting reviewer names to send copies of the game to. Do you have a favorite channel or reviewer that you'd like us to reach out to? Let me know in the comments below!

In just two to three weeks, I'll be locking the orders, so if you haven't filled out your backer survey yet, now is the time to do so! Just click on this link -->https://projecteosrise.backerkit.com/. Plus, if you want to purchase a pre-order copy of the game, now is the time as our online store will be closing when orders are locked. Don't miss out on this opportunity to get your hands on this awesome game!

I'll be sending another update 48 hours before we lock the orders and close the online store, so stay tuned for that! I'm so grateful for your continued support, and I can't wait for you to receive your copy of the game. 

Thank you all so much for being part of this journey with me. I can't wait to bring Project EOS Rise to life!

Project EOS Rise Update!
about 2 years ago – Wed, Jan 18, 2023 at 07:26:33 AM

Attention Fans of Project EOS Rise!

We are thrilled to bring you an exciting update on the progress of our game development. We are happy to report that we are still on target for our timeline, and by February 1st, we will be submitting all of our design files to the manufacturer, putting us ahead of schedule.

Since the successful funding of our project, we've been hard at work to bring you the best gaming experience possible. We've set up a small business, "Random World Games," and have been working on all the necessary accounts to bring this game to life.

We've also partnered with our friends at Archona Games to design an icon pack that perfectly fits the look and theme of Project EOS Rise. In addition, we've been working diligently to overhaul all of the game assets, updating the artwork to align with our new icons, and have even commissioned a brand new illustration for the box art from the talented illustrator, Michael Storey.

We've also been working hard on setting up Backerkit and conducting fire tests on our surveys. We will be deploying these surveys soon to collect shipping information and funds.

Attention any backers from the Montreal Canada region. Local pickup will be available. Instructions on how to select this option will be provided during the survey process. A Torono Canada local pick up may also be a option. More details will follow. 

Pre-Orders NOW OPEN

And for those of you who missed the campaign, we are now offering pre-orders for the game on our website, https://projecteosrise.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders.

So, don't miss your chance to secure your own copy of Project EOS Rise!

We'll be sure to keep you updated as we hit new milestones and submit our designs to the manufacturer. Stay tuned for more exciting news!

Best, James

Quick Update Before The Holidays
about 2 years ago – Sat, Dec 17, 2022 at 03:08:50 PM

I hope this message finds you well and that you're as excited as I am about the launch of 'Project EOS Rise'. We've been working hard to bring this project to life, and I'm thrilled to say that we've now completed the funding stage and are ready to move on to the best part - actually making the game!

Timeline!  Here is a look at the most conservative timeline I can imagine based on the information I have today. My most significant win in advancing this timeline is getting the manufacturing setup process done before the Chinese New Year. This will move up all the production timelines by a month. But I want to be realistic, so I'll keep it as is. 

Launch our Pledge Manager! 

In January, we'll be launching our pledge manager, which will allow anyone who missed the Kickstarter campaign to secure their own copy of 'Project EOS Rise' or the 'Away Missions' expansion. If you already pledged on Kickstarter, you don't need to do anything - your order will be taken care of automatically.

For those of you who are new to crowdfunding, a pledge manager is a platform that helps us manage and fulfill orders. We'll be using BackerKit, which allows backers to see their orders, track fulfillment, and more. If you receive communication from me through BackerKit, don't be alarmed - it's just part of the process.

Communication. 

As we move forward with development, I'll be using the Board Game Geek forums as a way to keep in touch with everyone and provide updates on what we're working on. If you'd like to stay up to date on the latest news and see behind-the-scenes glimpses of the development process, be sure to follow the link below:

https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/331903/project-eos-rise

I'll reserve Kickstarter updates for only major milestone announcements. 

Language Editions

I know that many of you are interested in language editions of 'Project EOS Rise', and while we currently only have an English version available, I'm committed to exploring localization options if/when we have a successful market launch. Later on in the development process, I'll be conducting a poll to see what languages are most in demand, so we can cater to that market as needed.

Happy Holidays! 

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who has supported 'Project EOS Rise' so far. Your enthusiasm and support mean the world to me, and I'm excited to embark on this adventure with you all. Have a happy holiday season, and I'll be in touch again soon with more updates.

Best regards, James
