Physical Books REVEALED
8 months ago – Fri, Jul 05, 2024 at 02:47:45 PM

Hey everyone. I have some news to share. I got pallets ready to ship. I admit this took longer than expected, but It’s nice seeing the goal on the horizon for those waiting on physical books.

I also have a video showing off the physical books.

Once I have an ETA for distribution delivery, I will share that. Thanks, everyone.

LEATHER EDITION UPDATE
8 months ago – Wed, Jun 26, 2024 at 12:06:52 PM

HEY EVERYONE!!

Not much to say this week, except I wanted to share some images and a video of the leather edition books being printed…

MORE COOL VIDEOS

HEY EVERYONE!

 Another quick update.

PRODUCTION VIDEOS

I got some more videos of production to share.

PRE-ORDER STORE

Also, as I mentioned in my previous update, the pre-order stores for both Amethyst and Ultramodern5 have been disabled.

I am doing a final run of emailing “unclosed” backers to ensure their pledges have closed. After which, probably near the end of June, I’ll be closing these pledges manually. Most of these are $1 pledges, so I am not expecting these to amount to anything anyway.

REVELATIONS PRINT-ON-DEMAND

I received a cool package today—the Revelations POD proof from DriveThruRPG.

Even though I have said it at length and will STILL receive questions and concerns from backers despite saying this, the Print-On-Demand books ARE NOT the offset books backers have pledged for on this Kickstarter. If you paid for physical books, those are still coming.

The offset books are of higher quality and will feature spot-UV and satin bookmarks. Coupons will be sent out for those wishing to order a print-on-demand at a reduced price; these coupons will be for both the standard and the premium editions of the game.

Everyone receives these coupons, regardless of whether you are due to receive offset games or not, so if you don’t want to order additional POD copies, just ignore these notifications regarding POD coupons.

MORE TO COME

LENTICULAR COVERS
9 months ago – Mon, May 20, 2024 at 09:34:47 AM

Hey everyone!

 As I mentioned in my previous update, physical books are being printed. It takes a while, considering this run is extensive: 5,000 books spread across Amethyst and Ultramodern5. 

 LENTICULAR COVERS

However, I CAN share these, which are lenticular covers for the leather edition books.

These were one of our last unlocks, so it will be really cool to see these in the real.

 PLEDGE MANAGER CLOSING

 The pledge manager for Amethyst will be occurring on May 31st. We will no longer be accepting pre-orders. However, I won’t lock down addresses until the books arrive at distribution. That will also be when I make one final stab at encouraging those who have not closed their pledges to do so. There are still 32 backers who have not closed their pledges, some of whom that have paid money.

 Chris.

RELEASE THE BOOK!
10 months ago – Fri, Apr 19, 2024 at 10:09:27 AM

Amethyst Revelations RELEASES today.

The coupons will be made available today, Friday, April 19th.

If you DO NOT receive the email in the next few days, check your spam folder and then check DTRPG.

As we seem to have a lot of issues with Backerkit’s digital distribution system, I am going to feed your emails directly into DTRPG and have THEM send out the coupons. However, we must have an accurate email on file. If you do not receive your digital copy by Saturday, DM me directly, and we’ll find another way to get the PDF to you.

POD vs. OFFSET

As Round Color is printing our books RIGHT NOW, I can’t imagine it being too long before they are finished, but the POD will be completed before that. Remember, if you backed for physical books, you’re receiving higher quality offset, NOT Print-On-Demand books. While we will be sending POD coupons, only those people NOT receiving offset books should consider ordering one…not unless you absolutely need a physical copy immediately despite an offset copy on the way.

In this video, I embark on a page-by-page tour of Amethyst Revelations

For many of you, this is the conclusion of our Kickstarter. As always, you are an amazing group of backers, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Thank you so much for supporting my career and allowing me to write full-time. It is appreciated.

Chris.
