Project Update: Finished at 500% Funded Thanks to You All!

With the close of the campaign, I just wanted to send another heartfelt thank you to everyone for supporting Fear of a Daily Planet. Reaching 500% of my funding goal was far beyond my expectations for my second Zine Month project, and it will ensure I can order a sizable first print run when the time comes.

 Scrap of paper with a man in a vac-suit with a pilcrow painted on the visor. Behind him is a wall of cryptic repeating text. Atop the paper are some text labels reading: "Fear of a Daily Planet is 500% funded!"
An inside source told me you're excited about this project.


I'll try to get the pre-order store open as soon as possible, in case anyone missed out. If you're interested in wholesale orders of 5 copies or more intended for resale, please email me.

There's still a good bit of art and layout work to do, which I'll continue as I copyedit Devil's Due and playtest. Subscribers to my mailing list can now get an early, text-only playtest version of Fear of a Daily Planet. As stated in the campaign, the expected release window is Q3 this year.

With appreciation,

Jordan

Project Update: New monster, new art, and only four days left to pledge in blackest ink!

Quick reminder that there are only a few days left to back Fear of a Daily Planet! As I've been working on the next draft, I found a bit more room in the layout. So, I'm resurrecting a monster that I cut a couple drafts ago!

There was originally going to be four more locations beyond Burgom's Haven, on the planet's surface under a large dome, to reveal more about the printer colony's resource extraction, and there lurked a beast malformed of poison solid. But in the end, these locations were largely superfluous and somewhat anemic, and they distracted from the faction interplay the module was originally built around, so I ended up cutting the exterior sections.

But not all that's cut is lost! With some tweaks, I've brought back from the dead what once lurked in the plastic mines beneath the colony. Bioaccumulator is a mass of Fair-All brand microplastics with the naturally formed sentience of all that lurks for ages long, and it wants to work its way up the food chain by subsuming others for a change. That means you'll be getting a fifth monster in this dungeoncrawl!

Black and white art of a humanoid figure made of tiny dots, a strange circle and point within its head. Organs can be glimpsed floating inside it. Printed on thick, creased paper.

If you haven't yet, consider backing Fear of a Daily Planet before the campaign ends to get it at below retail price!

Thanks again for all your support,
Jordan

Hi Jordan, I've pledged to the physical compendium but, having read that you won't be shipping to EU, wonder if shipping to the UK will be possible.

I'll be putting together an update with a list of other cool Zine Month projects for you all to check out and support if you're able. I'm hoping to wrap that up for the 48-hour update.

Project Update: ⏳ 24 Hours Left for the Free "Born of Ink" Patch! ⏳

Another thank you for funding this project 244% on the first day, and a quick reminder that there are only 24 hours left (until Feb. 6th at 9 AM Central) to get the "Born of Ink" patch for free if you back Fear of a Daily Planet at the Physical or Deluxe level!

Also, importantly: I've noticed a surprising amount of additional patches being included in pledges as add-ons on the first day, and I want to make sure those folks know they're ordering an extra patch on top of the free one they'll get for backing at an eligible level in the first 48 hours.

If you qualify for the free early bird patch, you do not need to include the patch as an add-on to your pledge. I'll add it later in the Pledge Manager. Only include the add-on if you want to pay for an additional patch, or of course, if you miss the early bird window and still want to purchase one.
