Project Update: Welcome to the headlands!
It's been a while, but I thought I'd just drop in with some news before we head into the quantum timewarp that is the festive season.
So, after the campaign was over, I announced that we would be honouring late pledges in the target for stetch goals. Well, that has now served us well as we have blasted past our final stretch goal: The Headlands.
Which, I suppose, means I will have to finally spill the beans on what the Headlands actually is. There were a few valiant (and expansion-inspiring) attempts made by some of you.
Well, it is what it is. Imagine a world that is situated on the head of an emergent creature. A creature whose size spans that of a large town -- or bigger if you wish. It's a place where things shift and not everything is what it seems.
If you want the general visuals on this, check out Simon's piece of art, Forever Home which is also available in the late-pledge add-ons.
As with the whole project, Simon has created original creatures based on his work, so The Headlands may look slightly different, but you get the idea.
Okay, that's all for now.
On behalf of Simon and myself (Tim) I'd like to wish you all a great festive season, whatever your plans are and we'll be back with the updates next year ;)
Be kind!

Nothing in the campaign, but in backerkit I can't select Israel as shipping destination. Please fix.
Project Update: Oh yeah... we are getting printed edges.
Sorry to barge in twice in one night, but I think you'll like this.
We've just hit 125k on the stretchometer (I hope that name sticks). That means physical books will now have those lovely printed edges.
Thank you so much and fist bumps / high fives / hugs (circle one or more options) all round.

Project Update: Surveys and Late Pledge closing date.
So, I caught up with Simon last week and we have begun work on getting things into production. Sometime in January, I will firm those dates up and give you a more accurate timeline of when to expect things.
In the meantime, here are a couple of bits of news.
First up, the late pledge window will close on the 8th of December. This is so we can get final numbers in for production. If you are looking to get a pledge in, please do so before then. Your pledge will count towards our stretch goals (we are just over £200 away from printed edges!).
You can late pledge here.
If you aren't in a position to late pledge, don't worry. We will put Wires in The Woods on general release in the early summer of 2025.
Those of you who have all ready backed will be happy to know that BackerKit are conducting their final reviews of our post-campaign information and we should be good to start sending out surveys in the next few days.
The initial surveys will be done as a smoke test to a small, random selection of backers. This is just to check that everything is working okay. Once we are happy that there were no issues with original surveys, we will send out the remaining ones (this should be around 24 to 48 hours after the smoke test).
In the surveys you can add your shipping info and pick up any extras / add-ons that you missed during the campaign.
The surveys will remain open until a few weeks before fulfilment, and we will give you plenty of reminders to ensure you have chance to update your address in case you have moved.
That's all for now, if you have any questions, please do add them in the comments and I will get reply ASAP.
Take care,
Tim (& Simon)

Hi guys, Im wondering if there might be an error with my survey because it says Im getting two of the Signed Bookplate. Is it an error? Or is it two different ones? Also, I saw you guys saying the playmat doesnt fit in the box but does it fit if its rolled up? Or not at all? Thank you!
