A goat of Mendes - Immaculate Incarnate!

FIRST

I myself hate when Kickstarters update me with a new email every hour with something, so I'm going to try to do as few communes as possible during this Kickstarter. Seeing it is going so well, I just had to bother you with one.

SECOND

Stretchgoals, haven't spoken about these anything really so here's some cliff notes.

  • We have unsealed the 4 extra occupations (which is lucky since Ruu already created the images for those.)
  • We unsealed the "Tree of Death poster" which is a free add-on sent out to all backers with physical pledges, no matter the tier.  It features most of the Pantheon of Astro Inferno, from gods and angels, to creatures of the Beneath, the Unlight and finally "mortals souls". It's really neat.
  • We unsealed the Black ribbon so the books now has two ribbons. One white, one black.
  • We unsealed the "Professional digital character sheets", a must in these times of the most dark.
  • We unsealed the Satanic Contract.
  • We unsealed the Fantastic Art upgrade. We will contract Helge and commision a set of "fantastic" images

There are some stretchgoals I really would like to see myself such as the "Depraved Art upgrade". But only the dark lord knows if we'll get that far.

It really feels like the Kickstarter is heading off into the splendor of the Unlight, above the pillars of eternal fire!


THIRD (AND MOST IMPORTANT) Why wasn't this first then? Shut up!

We get a lot of questions about the difference between the versions and if you should buy either or both and so on.  And we realize that we haven't been clear with this in the kickstarter. So we're correcting this and Ruu is right now doing some mockups to point to the difference more clearly.


The Core version will be printed on white uncoated paper (mat finish). It will feature bright and colorful art, and this is what we're mostly showing, since we anticipated that fans would back this edition. It feature a normal book binding and the black cross on the front.

Example - Core edition spread

The Legendary version will be printed on a creme colored uncoated paper (mat finish). It will feature darker versions of the art and alternative images in some cases and more R rated and graphic imagery, with muted and unsaturated colors (There will be plenty of violence and skin in the Core edition also, just at a different scale). In addition there will be margin scripts that feature small notes, and sketches and symbols. Mostly flavor and micro stories. 

It also features the open spine which is very unique for RPG's in general and it has the cross in gold foil on the front. The page cut is painted black on this edition, which we think is so fucking cool!

Example - Legendary edition spread

The Legendary version will feel more Satanic, unique and more like an old manuscript in its composition and theme, but still feature the same content.


So if you want the colorful art and a more "normal" looking RPG book. The Core edition is the way to go. 

If you want the unique and tome feeling book and want more carnage and profane nudity. The Legendary edition is better.


And if you want both, there is a discount on the Holy Diver tier, meaning you only pay 26€ more to get the core version together with the Legendary version.


Hope this Commune has given you a better basis for the decision on which edition you should choose.

We're currently working on more mockups and will update the kickstarter to communicate this better to all backers.


Go restless into the night.

By the Spear, the Sword, the Spell!

Found not in tongues, found not in light!

  • Epic response from you all! 
  • I just can't believe it? 
  • Fully funded in 4 hours. 
  • I feel like I should say something! 

Is that what I'm doing?


I'm sending you the first trailer we created for the game, as a remainder of, how far this game has traveled!

Thank you!


Canto I 

When I had journeyed half of our life's way, 

I found myself within a shadowed forest, 

for I had lost the path that does not stray.
