Latest Updates from Our Project:

Clans of Midgardr Preview!
about 6 years ago – Wed, Apr 25, 2018 at 02:12:58 AM

Hi everybody!

We apologize for the time passed from the last update, assuring you that everyone of the team is working hard to finalize the project!

It's time for a juicy preview! You'll find in your email inbox (or in the BackerKit downloads section) two new downloads: 


1) The revisioned version of the JTR Classes with the final layout, including the stunning knotwork design from Milivoj Ćeran!


2) The Clans of Midgardr Preview: there you can find the Clans description and goals, with the most important Midgardr NPC (their stats are yet to come!).

The file is a rough preview of the text in their final layout, we're looking forward for your feedbacks!

Next release will be:
- The Rune Divination System (we finished to playtest it and it's now on translation)
- Midgardr setting (finished, translated and we're optimizing the NPC stats)
- Exclusive Character Backgrounds (on editing)

We understand that we're running out the estimated delivery time, but the quality of the contents and of the physical products are considerably improved! We're putting all our effort in making this EPIC!

Thank you very much for you patience and for your support!
Skål!

Classes Preview
about 6 years ago – Wed, Feb 21, 2018 at 12:48:38 PM

Hi everybody!

We're proud to announce that now Kickstarter backers can download the Classes design preview! You should get an email or you can go to your BackerKit account in the "Download" section.

Please note that these pages are just a preliminary layout of the chapter, and they’re not representative of the final product. The final product will include full graphics, page numbers and chapter references. 

The text may include errors, if you find any, please point them out by sending an e-mail to [email protected].

BackerKit Issues 

We still have 12 backers that haven't answered the survey yet and 26 backers whose card was declined for payment.

In addition, we had 6 dispute for "fraudulent" payments. It means that some of you doesn't recognize the charge and reported it as fraudulent.

Please note that backers that haven't answered the survey or haven't been charged for shipping can't get their physical products once we'll start delivering (we'll state the ETA with a future update).

It's possible that backers who opened a dispute for fraudulent charging, and still want their pledges, will need to pay an additional fee. This is because, for example, a 25€ refund costs us around 36€.

Thank you for your support, we're working on the editing and on the layout design and we're near to announce an artist guest star!

Skål!

Crunchy Update for 2018!
about 6 years ago – Wed, Feb 07, 2018 at 03:36:14 PM

Hi everybody,

this is the first update for 2018! We apologize for the time passed from the last one.

First of all, a little recap for the BackerKit platform. As many of you noticed, yesterday we collected late pledges together with shipping fee, this because we need the exact number of copies to take agreement with the printing and shipping company.

We ask to the 13 backers that didn’t answered the Backer Survey yet to do so, and to the 105 that have issues with payment method to fix it.

The final number of backers is 1263. This is AWESOME! Thank you so much for your support, we couldn’t make it without you!

Classes 

The class design is done and we’re finishing its layout and hunting for typos. Soon we’re releasing an exclusive preview for backers! Stay tuned and wait for the class-dedicated update!

The Art of Journey To Ragnarok

Thanks to the many stretch goals we increased the original number of illustration to more than we can even dream of!

Asgard by Andrea Guardino

 My "JTR - Illustration Folder" now counts around 120 illustrations, leaving out all symbols and runes (that we designed manually!). The illustrator team is made up by Simone DentiElisa Ferrotto, Andrea Guardino (who did the biggest part of the work), and Olga Volkova. We're also concluding an agreement with a guest star, but we'll tell you more once it's official with a dedicated update!

 Time Line

Once we'll have all the agreement for printing and shipping we'll be able to tell you a more accurate deadline, but we're expecting a delay in the original timeline.
We're focused on the quality of the game and of the products and having achieved the 1000% of the goal means for us to put the 1000% in dedication, but it lead inevitably to a grow in the time needed.
Soon we're releasing an exclusive preview of the background setting and the first part of the adventure, that we're finishing to layout editing in these days.

Thank you for you patience and support!

See you across the Nine Words!

The Grey Wanderer has come!

The Grey Wanderer

"Will you offer hospitality to the Grey Wanderer?

Will you listen to his words?"

The Grey Wanderer is here! All backers should have a notification from BackerKit in their mail! Log in your BackerKit account and download your free PDF copy.
(you'll find 2 version with a "bis" one. They're the same, just to be sure that everyone can have his copy!)

Please give us your feedback!
We need you to help us both getting rid of all the typos that we could have missed and understanding how to give you a better gaming experience!

...and remember that while you're distracted by the Wanderer's riddles, something hungry awaits in the darkness...

Please note that we'll close both surveys and late pledges at the end of December and after that you won't have the chance to update your add-ons or join the campaign if you haven't done it yet.

Hoping to hear from you soon!
