A: “we’d like to get it delivered in march but we’re working it out with the printer’s schedule rn — there were several changes that happened on the doorways/halloween (thickness and a couple other things) that we needed to troubleshoot with the printer but we should be good to go. we’ll drop an official update on vol 3 very soon!” – moldypotions

Q: “As far as the tournament goes, we will be only allowed to play the demo table cards?” – Wayward Artificer
A: “yes, there may be a few new cards added for fun >:) but yes, playing with the demo mods! we’re working on updating the look and UI but that will take a hot minute and likely won’t be finished before the tourney” – moldypotions

2/22
Q: “Is there a solidified release date?” – pack
A: “for the Kickstarter? It’s hard for us to put a firm date on it due to production time, but we’re aiming for June/July at the latest.” – moldypotions

A:The figure is coming!! If you didn’t hear, we had a set back with our 3D Sculptor for the figure getting injured. Poor guy impaled his eye in a workplace accident but, the team is working quickly to get you guys an update and some imagery on this. Cause believe me, it’s worth seeing” – tyranitessa

Q: “Are you printing the booster boxes to order as far as the kickstarter goes or will there be 5,000 BB made in total? Just trying to figure out if I’ll have a chance to buy a few after release of I should order the BB I want now.” – Sukonez Nutz
A: “good question, we will be somewhere in the middle. if we don’t hit 5000 KS boxes in the order, but we’re relatively close, we’ll round up to 5k so we can have some extra boxes to help continue spreading the word and helping LGS. If we close out with something like 2500-3000 boxes spoken for, we’ll print extra, but probably won’t go all the way to 5000. but maybe. We’ll be sure to keep everyone in the loop with all the print numbers and sku’s, either way.” – moldypotions

Q: “I still wanna know how Ralph got close enough to snag some of Dread’s DNA.” – Jawllypop
A: “we’ve already got that outlined. we have a LOT outlined heh heh” – moldypotions
Q: “Where do I find this info?” – Jawllypop
A: “most of the real story/lore is being saved for the Comic Book. but Victor and I will find ways to start to release some of it to the public. just know that we are very serious about this story and have been mapping that since before we were even developing the game” – moldypotions
Q: “will it be more comic book style, shonen manga style, or manhwa” – Messy
A: “sort of a blend of styles, taking notes from shonen manga as well as American comics” – moldypotions
Q: “Nice, and will it be published as a bound book or comic?” – Messy
A: “maybe both? we’re still working on these aspects but we’re writing and illustrating it like a comic/manga” – moldypotions

Q: “(Doorway Proto Cards) the card is actually thick too! I love it.” – pianomanx

– moldypotions

2/14
Q: “Not sure if this has been address before, but as far as the “release schedule” goes for sets, I understand we have mini sets that’ll roll out, but I was curious if we’re looking at a certain amount of sets per year?” – EscapedAlien
A: “at this point we’re aiming for 1 big core set per year like its_nom said, in the range of 150-200 new cards, introducing new mechanics, and some reprints of older stuff — then filling out the year with a few mini sets in the 40-80 range that complement the core set and balance the meta as well as a couple other smaller collectible product releases where we, say, bring in a guest artist to draw a 10 set of cards in their style, both alt arts of existing and/or new cards.” – moldypotions

2/13
“I will make a clear and detailed post sometime soon after Kickstarter outlining all redeemable art cards and prints! But just so everyone is clear on what is redeemable it will be
-Kaiju prints
-Spookala Art cards
-King Jellion (Kaiju Senpai studio x coardboard cult collaboration from Long Beach)
-NomNom series 1 art cards
-bold matsuri fox boy
(note this one is with collaboration with a mascot for an event so this one has to be negotiated with the event on how we release it! They have mentioned they wanna keep the character somewhat in house! But that event will be huge next time we attend it so hopefully we can work out something super cool!)” -SenpaiSlk

Q: “I do have a question regarding the builder kits for whoever can help answer it! It mentions a Kickstarter exclusive champion. Is this an entirely different champion compared to the one we’re already getting for free when we unlocked that tier?” – CollectibleCrusader
A: “That one is the same, yes. An additional copy of the KS Exclusive champ to help get closer to the playset. also, Hunter Tiers will be receiving 2x KS Champs and Big Daddy Tiers will receive 3x”
