almost 3 years ago
– Tue, Jun 29, 2021 at 02:17:59 AM
Hey backers!
There’s only a short update today to let you know that Chapter 3 will be a bit late! The chapter is currently in the hands of the design team who are working to get it distributed as soon as possible, though it may not be released through BackerKit until early next week.
Chapter 3 is also twice as long as the previous chapters! We can’t wait to get this hefty conclusion into your inboxes.
In the meantime, don’t forget to send your feedback to Pierogi (and the writers, I guess)! Use the respective links for Appendices, Chapter 0, Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 to submit.
The remaining supplements (Are We the Baddies?, Dastardly Disco, Shuffled Stories) are currently on track for the July 12th release.
Heliana’s Guide to Monster Hunting is a 300-page tome packed with exciting new content to enhance your 5E game! Discover lethally thrilling adventures; rules for tracking, harvesting, and crafting; and a humongous hoard of fully-illustrated items, monsters, spells, and player options. Battle lethal, multi-stage boss monsters and forge fantastic new items and familiars from their remains.
Be sure to check out what our friends at Loot Tavern are offering! It's not being developed by the core Hit Point Press team, but we're publishing this book!
Check it out! There's only 3 days left in the campaign!

Ch. 2 Beta Release

Hey backers!
Chapter 2 Beta Release
Chapter 2 was released yesterday! If you haven’t already, go download it and check it out! You can access the files under Digital Downloads when you sign into BackerKit.
Don’t forget to send us your feedback!
You can also still submit feedback surveys for Appendices, Chapter 0 and Chapter 1. Pierogi is diligently collecting and reviewing your submissions!
Chapter 3 is taking a little longer than expected but we’re still aiming for the projected June 28th release. On the chance it is released at a later date, it should be no more than a couple of extra days.
Pronouns! What’s the deal?
Hit Point Press endeavors to create worlds and a community that are safe and supportive for people of all identities and backgrounds. One way we’ve chosen to do that is by providing pronouns for all NPCs in brackets after their name when they’re introduced as well as in the Appendices. We’ve also included some reminders in the given text where appropriate.
We have received some comments questioning this inclusion and requesting it be toned down and we’d like to address this sentiment.
The Revelia has a diverse population who use a variety of pronouns, and though some may be unfamiliar, all of them represent real people and their experiences. The inclusion of pronouns for all NPCs and especially those beyond he/him and she/her was and is an intentional celebration of marginalized queer identities. Hit Point Press unequivocally stands by their inclusion.
Thank you to everyone who has shown love and support through comments and messages!

Beta Release - Chapter 1
almost 3 years ago
– Tue, Jun 01, 2021 at 01:14:33 AM
Hey backers!
Chapter 1 Beta has just been released on BackerKit!
You can access the files under Digital Downloads when you sign in and it should be emailed to you as well. The feedback survey is open until June 22nd, so be sure to let us know your thoughts there!
Upcoming Releases
Chapter 0 needs a couple of extra days to be finalized as it had to wait until the first few chapters were written before it could be finished. Rest assured, it’s set to be released by early next week and you can still begin your adventures with Chapter 1!
Chapter 2 is on track to be released on June 14th as expected.
Surveys!
Did you fill out your feedback form for the Appendices? We'd love to hear from you! Let us know what you thought of it!
And don't forget to let us know about Chapter 1! The feedback you leave us through these forms goes directly to the writers and editors for consideration. We promise there isn't a porcelain clown named Pierogi who takes out all the nice stuff, why would you even bring that up? 🤔

Thanks again for all of your patience and feedback! We’re excited to hear what a great and wholesome time everyone has at The Revelia! 🎪

Beta Appendices (May 17th) and STL Update
almost 3 years ago
– Tue, May 11, 2021 at 03:08:34 AM
Hey backers!
Here’s a quick update of where we’re currently at in production!
Beta Appendices release, 1 week delay (May 17th)
We know you’re expecting the Appendices and we’re sorry to say that one of our writers indulged in some cotton candy from The Revelia and lost a few sugar-crazed days, so we’re a bit behind schedule.
Well, some of that is true. We have writers. And I’m sure at least one of them has consumed cotton candy at some point during their life. And we are certainly behind schedule.
We’re sorry to report an additional 1 week delay, especially right after our very comprehensive and snazzy master timeline! Yikes! This shouldn't affect the overall timeline, just this initial release. Though we will be making sure to regularly update this timeline as development occurs.
Beyond this first release, we don’t anticipate further delays but we will keep you in the loop for any that crop up.
STL Files
A couple of backers have requested clarification regarding the STL files for the Heckna minis and where they fall in the release schedule. We’ve got some exciting news on that front!
Backers expecting STL files in their rewards can expect them by May 21st! The team is putting the finishing touches on the remaining files to prepare them for distribution (trying to wrangle the children of the candy corn is like herding cats!).
