V1.1 of the PDF is live!
2 days ago – Mon, Mar 30, 2026 at 11:14:48 AM

Hey friends,

We got some good feedback on the PDF release, and I'm happy to say we've cleaned up a few minor errors for version 1.1. YOu should be getting an email from BackerKit any moment with a link to the updated file. 

We're also getting the print design files ready, and I expect us to be ready to print within a few weeks. I'll send another update when I have more on that! Thanks again for your support. 

PDFs are here!

It took much longer than we had hoped, but the PDF has been finalized and you should be receiving an email from BackerKit regarding your download at any moment if you haven't already. I'm proud of the book we made and I hope it's worth the wait! 

We're digging into finalizing the files for the physical rewards now, but we'll let you guys look through the book for a bit before start printing. If you find any issues or balancing questions be sure to DM me here and I'll take a look. 

Thanks again for your support, I can't wait to put the physical book in your hand shortly. 

Art is completed, Wrapping Up Writing and Beginning Layout
2 months ago – Mon, Jan 19, 2026 at 07:50:26 PM

Hey friends,

Excited to announce that the art for this project is completely finished. With the art done, we're just finishing up the writing and editing, which is also close. The good news is that we've already started laying out the book, so there won't be an extended period of putting the book together. I am hopeful to have the PDF ready to go by the end of the month. Some of the most recent art pieces are below. Thanks for your patience!

December Update
4 months ago – Fri, Dec 05, 2025 at 08:42:06 PM

Apologies, I posted this update on the wrong project! It's late here. Just a quick update as we plug along. Our hope is to have the PDF to you by the end of the month, but with the holidays coming up it may not be until January. We do have more to show you though, in the next few minutes you'll get an e-mail from BackerKit with the final section on the Forge Boons. These boons are included in the book and also come in the card deck. 

I'm also dropping in some new art. Thanks you for your patience!

Updated Timeline
6 months ago – Mon, Oct 06, 2025 at 12:39:16 PM

Hi friends,

Thanks again for your patience and support as we keep things moving with Treasures From The Astral Forge. Delays are unfortunate and never fun, but we wanted to give you an updated timeline of where we are at. 

Our current plan is to have the PDF of the book ready to deliver before Christmas. Once everyone has a chance to look it over during the holidays, we'll proceed with producing the physical rewards in January. 

The reason for the late delivery is largely just a matter of this project taking our team of two more time than we had initially planned. While most of our books are make with a large team, we tried something new this time around and it's just been much slower going than we had hoped. to keep things moving forward, I've pushed back my entire publishing timeline to focus on wrapping up fulfillment on this and another ongoing project. Outside of one smaller project that's already written and ready to go, we'll hold off on any future crowdfunding efforts until we can get the PDF delivered and start the physical reward fulfillment process.
