BackerKit Coming Soon!

Hey, all! Welcome to post-campaign report #1.
This week we received the funds from Kickstarter and built out the BackerKit (which is submitted for approval). Hopefully it will be approved and will go live early next week.
PDFs will be released on August 30th to all appropriate tiers, regardless of whether you have finished the BackerKit survey by then or not. Our goal is to get the product in your hands as soon as possible.
The last pieces of the project are wrapping up. We now have all of the map art in and approved. The text has seen a second revision / editing pass. All we're missing is the final editing pass from our play-testing DM and two pieces of art.
As a final note, we were able to secure a local printer for this project, instead of going with a larger, online option. What this means is that the books will be done quicker (I can just pick them up directly), and we have a bit more quality control in general. Major props to the printer for working with us to make this happen. We love that we're able to "shop" local on this.
Finally, we have been working on a project called Captain Hartchild's Guide to Rare Dragons for some time and we plan on launching August 31st! It's a .pdf only product that's chock-full of bizarre dragons to slip into your campaign. You can click the link below to get notified as soon as it launches.

Our next update will be to let you know that the BackerKit is live.

So, what's next? Hang tight for a couple of weeks as we wait for the Kickstarter to close out and transfer the funds. Once that happens, we'll put out an update about when to expect the BackerKit.
From there, everything's gonna go quickly.
Come say hey on the World Building Twitch stream @ 9pm Central tonight if ya want!: https://www.twitch.tv/thedriftersatlas
While you're here, ya'll should check out our friend's campaign: Supers & Sorcery. We've been friends with Cameron for a while and wish them all the best on their first project.

Stretch Goal Unlocked: Another Race Added!
over 3 years ago
– Wed, Aug 05, 2020 at 10:45:28 AM
In the last hour you've pulled through and unlocked another stretch goal! Thank you so much for your continued support.
We're tossing around a couple different ideas for what this third race will end up being (lots to choose from), so we think we're gonna keep it a secret for the time being. Expect a reveal on this in the coming weeks!
As we near the end, we want to assure you that we anticipate a speedy delivery of this project. Once the funds clear Kickstarter (roughly 2 weeks from now), we'll begin opening up the Backerkit. Our goal is a fast delivery on everything.
The writing/layout/artwork is 95% done and we've got our printer lined up. All that needs done is updating the zine to include the stretch goals. This book has swollen from 48 to 56 pages due to the unlocked stretch goals!!
We had an absolute blast writing and playtesting this adventure and can't wait to put it in your hands. If you like it as much as we do, you'll be excited to know we've got a whole series of these modules in the works! Keep your eyes out for another little zine coming this fall.
That's it for now! Thanks for being awesome.

2 Stretch Goals Unlocked: New Race & Extra Art!

Holy fibrum, you all are awesome! In rapid-fire succession we've hit another two stretch goals and have unlocked a new race and an art upgrade!
The new race is going to be another of our Elementalborn. We like the 5e genasi but had some ideas about dividing each element into its own race. So far so good and we can't wait to show them to you!
Motherload will contain both the earthen korg, the blazing suttee, and a host of subraces that float in between.
As far as the art goes, we're upgrading a couple of the smaller pieces within the book with something a bit cooler and more unique to our world.
YOU MADE THAT HAPPEN!!
Last push.

Stretch Goal Unlocked: Subclass Unlocked!
over 3 years ago

Ya'll are super rad! We've made it past the next stretch goal and have unlocked the Elder Patron for the Warlock subclass.
Before their fall, the Elder were the creator gods and their power lingers on in the fibrum shards. Throughout the world, rumors persist that progeny of the Elder still exist and are eager to rise to the level of dominance that their ancestors once held. As an Elder Warlock, you have been called by such a creature and you work alongside them as they attempt to rise in prominence once again.
Next up, we have a new race! We're itching to tell you all about it.
TTFN,
Zac G.
