Project Update: We did it! 🎉 It's funded!
Hello students!
It's so good of you all to show up promptly on the first day of classes! I'm so thrilled to see so many new faces enrolled for this semester and grateful that you all look extra eager for your lessons!
We have funded! That means we're adding so many new classes and new houses to campus! I hope you'll be patient during construction and give our professors a bit to update their curriculums!
I don't have much to share in this update other than my gratitude! I'll be sharing new art and updates as the campaign progresses, but for now, I'm going to take a moment to celebrate a successful launch day! I believe we funded in less than an hour!
If you want to see my live reaction and me talking about the books, you can watch this video I streamed when I found out we funded! Click here to go to Twitch.

If you have the energy to spread the word, I appreciate it. Otherwise, thanks for being here and helping make this project a reality. I appreciate your kindness.
Have a magical day,

Project Update: We're nearing the finish!
Good day, students!
We are nearing the end of the semester and the final is on Friday! (That's when the campaign ends!)
I've had a few questions since we last touched base, so here are answers!
Why isn't there a physical add-on for the core book?
I thought there was! It's been added now. It will also be available later in BackerKit if you forget to add it now.
Why aren't your other games available as add-ons?
This campaign is focused on funding print runs for Tangled Blessings books. It's easier to understand audience interest and keep things from getting confusing by focusing on my magical academy series. That said, if you're interested in my other games, they will be available as add-ons through BackerKit after the campaign ends. I totally understand wanting to group items to save on shipping!
If I missed backing in the first 48 hours, can I still get a House Crest sticker sheet?
Yes! The House Crest sticker sheet will be available as an add-on after the campaign ends! I'm hoping to post a preview of it later this week!
Is there a playlist or music you recommend for Tangled Blessings?
There is in fact! I commissioned the amazing Sam Leigh to create a playlist for Tangled Blessings and it's available on Spotify and YouTube! Echoes of Lost Electives will include URLs and QR codes printed inside so the playlist can be found, but if you want to save it now, there you go!
That's all for now! I'll be back tomorrow with a schedule for the rest of the week!

Is there a chance to get your other games as Add-ons? I wanted to get Carved by the Garden, but the shipping alone to where I live was almost the price of the book on your website. It would be awesome if there was a possibility to ship it together with Echoes of Lost Electives. Thanks

Project Update: What a Weekend!
Hello students!
I am elated to share that we have passed 7,000 for funding Tangled Blessings: Echoes of Lost Electives and 200 enrolled students! Thanks for the continued support of Brackroot Academy!
Have you determined your house yet?
Use these posts on Twitter or Threads to find out quick, and then help spread the word for both new and returning students to learn about their destined houses. There are two new houses included in Echoes of Lost Electives; will you be selected into one of them?
Head here for Tumblr: Tumblr Link
I'll be back tomorrow with details for another stream, this time featuring my inspiration for Tangled Blessings! Follow me on Twitch for a notification of when I go live. Twitch Link
More games for your shelf
With journaling adventures in mind, please check out the Kickstarter for Lighthouse at the Edge of the Universe, by Ella Lim. You may know Ella from the amazing game Fox Curio’s Floating Bookshop!
Lighthouse is a solo game that lets the player build a history and life of a lighthouse keeper. Choosing from 6 pre-made characters, the player chronicles day to day life, from mundane repairs to strange figures climbing in to visit. This journaling game is thoughtful, reflective, and meditative, giving you time to truly settle and consider what lies beneath an otherwise simple life.

Project Update: It's time to study up! 🤓
Good morning, students!
Did you have fun finding out your assigned house yesterday? Did you by chance find your Rival’s assigned house? Remember, you're only academic Rivals, so please keep things civil! We expect great things from both of you!
You may have noticed that the official art for House of Divines and House of None was also included in assignments yesterday! The finished crests made their way into my inbox over the weekend, and I'm thrilled to see how the reinstatement of these two lost houses is going! Anyone assigned to live in one of these is VERY lucky in need!

But enough with tooting on our own horns. It's time to look back on history, and see what came before! Join me tonight on Twitch for a special live stream at 7CT! I'll be showing off and flipping through some of the inspiration for Tangled Blessings, including other games that you might like! I hope you'll join me!
That's all for now!
