Show Distribution and Future Plans

Whisperwood is now in the exclusive tier. Episode five is already out on Patreon. Once we hit five exclusive episodes, YouTube Memberships will get access to those episodes, but they'll come out on a bi-weekly lag so patrons always get the full stuff first.

Rotgrind Finale: We're wrapping up Rotgrind around January or February after we finish the level 1 to 20 campaign. We're super excited to close out this multi-year story.

WarHams: Second Edition: This is our new mainline show. It's going to be free and available for preview while you wait for the full release.

WarHams: Fantasy Filler: Once Rotgrind is done, we'll run WarHams: Fantasy as a filler campaign. This ensures we keep recording while we wait on assets for WarHams: Second Edition.

Secrets of Grace: If Thurston is unavailable for other shows, we'll use Secrets of Grace adventures to ensure consistent content delivery.

Infrastructure and Team Updates

We are fully transitioning away from Google Drive to improve security and protect our artists' work. All files have been migrated and reorganized. Our phones are also switching to GrapheneOS to reduce Google tracking.

Jers is officially on the team as a backup contractor for art. He's been helping out on a commission basis, working alongside Skelly on things like Chaos Odyssey art and handout cards.

We have simplified animation workflows to meet deadlines without burnout while maintaining quality. Makira is excited to get the previews out to you.

Website and Tier Updates

The show section on our website has been updated to clearly list all public and premium shows. The Platinum Benefactor tier description has been refined for clarity. We also clarified what is a public show versus a premium show to ensure everyone understands the distribution differences [1]. Patreon members get the vast majority of our content contributions, which is why we prioritize their release schedule.

Thank you for your continued support. Without you, we wouldn't exist!
