Hey folks- catching up here after a few things in the rest of my life have kept me away. Sorry for the delay, but I'm pleased to say that there has been no change from the plan I last posted. If anything does change I will post an update here immediately. Otherwise please feel free to email [email protected] with questions. I may not be checking here regularly.
For those of you asking about production: production is now complete. I have received a final copy and confirmed it's as it should be, and have sent final payment, which has been confirmed received. The remaining steps are:
1: Receive the shipment from China at our fulfillment partner's warehouse in NH.
2: Send 'em out
Shipping to the US is sort of tricky, but we expect to have it here in the start of December, fulfillment will hopefully hit the ground running and get everything out before the end of the year.
Thanks for your patience. We're doing our best with a situation that's gone off the rails more than once, but your continued support means a lot.
Production and Shipping Update

Here's the latest from our rep to the factory:
"I’m working with the factory to push production, right now the best commitment I can make is to complete production on the 31st of October, and have freight ready to go for delivery at the beginning of December. The production lead time is longer than we had originally discussed, largely due to the storm that hit China last week and a typhoon that is hitting the coast just south of Shanghai, where Ningbo. Once the typhoon has passed I will work with the factory to reassess this timeline and see if we can improve the completion date."
Based on how shipping went for Alchemy! it could be a couple of months between the game leaving port and the game arriving in your hands. The holiday season might make shipping easier or harder, but coming in after the holidays could help it get shipped from our fulfillment service.
I'll update everyone if anything else happens. But we're just waiting now!
And.... We'll be at the Boston Festival of Independent Games this Saturday as a sponsor. Please come say hi and check out what we've been working on! We'll have the factory prototype of Crown of Exile on hand if any backers want to have a look. We think it's gorgeous.

Hello again! I'm in a bit of a rush tonight but as promised I'm sharing news as soon as I get it, so apologies in advance for the short update.
The samples for Crown of Exile have arrived, behold!
All in all, it's looking great - we seem to have lost a few cards in transit, but we'll be confirming those with digital proofs and going into production with no more hurdles to clear once that's done. I'll post estimated delivery dates as soon as I know them.
Thanks again for all of your patience, I think it's going to be worth it!
