Alright!  All settled in on the new Patreon Backend?  Making sense?  Patrick and Technomancer Mike Buland have tried to make the landing as gentle as possible for you - you should be getting your perks faster, and more reliably, because a Robot is responsible for more of it than ever.  As always, if you have any trouble, just let us know at clubpa@penny-arcade.com and we'll get you squared away.  

Have you played Raft?  I haven't. Gabe keeps describing it to me as Minecraft on a boat?  I don't know what that means exactly.  Minecraft has boats.  No, I think I get it.  You're crafting the boat itself?  Hmm.  Keeping up with Steamward Indie Survival is a dangerous game, but I'm intrigued.  At this point, I'm deeply into a genre called "Games Named Yoku's Island Express" and my focus is absolute.

Lexcalibur is sold out down to only digital copies now, but it's fun to think that the Club has been there from the very beginning - you've got my read-through, you had the text for a couple years almost now.  From the first reactions I got back, it seemed like something special had come out of all that and you let me know that I wasn't just off being weird.  Or, I was off being weird and you're fine with it?  We're both here - wherever it is - and I appreciate it.  

Next big content missions for the Club are getting the first episode of This Old Lair edited and out to you - that's the podcast I'm doing with Acquisitions Intoxicated Brewmaster and C-Team Co-Writer Eric Benson.  First one's already in the can.  Next, I've been planning a Tales from the Loop campaign for the first of our Quarterly Streams!  This is essentially a pen and paper Role-playing game where the players are groups of kids who go on eighties movie adventures.  I think I've got something pretty cool going for this and I'm excited to share it, and the elite cast of Arcadians I'll be dragging through it.    

Until next time,

I'm mixed on Raft. Feels like "Detris" (detritus Tetris). Friend of mine who likes to grind survival games had us building a big wide boat with collectors and soon there was little else to do. I guess if they were to mix some Sea of Thieves in there: start with a raft, build enough to fight a sloop, steal that sloop progress on?

Receiving the newsletter this way is functionally equivalent to the email but some how it feels more special to have this space to operate in. Well done!

It's even better for our end, because people often don't get the emails for whatever reason.

Super excited to see Tales from the Loop played! Kickstarted that a million years ago after following the artist.

Any chance of the old Club PA comics being uploaded here?

I’ve been listening to the old staff podcasts again and I would love it if they could come back. Is there any way it could return?

ClubPA

That's probably a no, I'm afraid. It was a logistical nightmare, and we're trying to avoid promising rewards that are easily affected by chaotic schedules.

How are we coming on a way to manually link Patreon to the PA website? Is it based on patreon email? Because mine is different for the PA site and Patreon. No rush, just wondering. Cheers and thanks.

ClubPA

It’s entering testing tomorrow, just the last stage before going live.

Is there a new link somewhere for the PA DLC podcast without the marketing messages from Jerry?
