Latest Updates from Our Project:

SG 04-05 Reached! More Warden Collector's Boxes & preview to the future
over 3 years ago – Mon, Sep 19, 2022 at 04:33:37 PM

Dear Backers!

You have smashed through the current Stretch Goals 04 and 05 during the last few days.  We can now reveal the next goal: Extended Soundscapes!

Soundscapes

Alex and Manu are working hard to get first samples ready for you to listen to.  As this project was always created with the sound design being integral part of the project, we are now happy to be able to expand on these parts as well.

More Stretch Goals!

As you can guess through the veil of pixelated colors. The next 2 Stretch Goals afterwards will be printed goals and the final one a digital one.  We will have these great additions lined up for a rounded up and vastly expanded content of this campaign.

Warden Collector's Box Wave 2

After we asked your opinion about a second wave, we have now decided to make this possible and include a second wave of boxes. But please be aware that we assemble the content of these boxes by hand and put them all together ourselves. We need more time to do so. That is why these boxes will be shipped 4 months later than the first wave. We hope for your understanding.

Now, let's concentrate on more creative previews in the coming weekend and afterwards the final week.

Best regards,

Team Arcanum

Warden Collector's Edition sold out! 2nd wave?
over 3 years ago – Mon, Sep 19, 2022 at 08:40:34 AM

Hello Backers,

After approximately one week all 111 Warden Collector's Edition boxes are taken – we're absolutely overwhelmed by your massive support. Thank you all!

First inquiries about expanding the limit have reached us and we're thinking about ways of doing this without stepping on anyone's toe. We also have to keep an eye on our capabilities which is the initial cause for the cap.


So please feel free to leave your thoughts about a potential 2nd wave here in the comments!


Cheers

SG2 - The Angels have arrived!
over 3 years ago – Fri, Sep 09, 2022 at 02:55:35 AM

Hi Backers, 

the next Stretch Goal has been met, while we are writing this update. The Sandalphon Pamphlet Module will be included in all digital Pledge Levels and will be printed for both the Core and Collector's Edition

Have a look here:

The Design is not final, this is a mockup.
Here are the pages spread out.

The back side is still waiting for completion.

As an incentive and work sample, the PDF will also be PWYW during this Kickstarter campaign. Afterwards it will be set up at Itch.io for  ~ 3 USD

This sample above is not yet edited by proofreaders.

So whats next?

Stretch Goal 3 is waiting at the 8.000 EUR line. We will expand the back side of the Poster Map and include information and gaming material there. This is a great way to expand the material without bloating up the pledges. 

Best regards,

The Arcanum Team

Transmissions incoming! Page Preview!
over 3 years ago – Thu, Sep 08, 2022 at 07:49:54 AM

Hi Backers, 

we have rolled over our first Stretch Goal and we can confirm that you will receive digital files of in game transmissions! Manu & Alex are already thrilled to design strange noises and intereferences for the audio files.

But we will not stop there. As we have been asked about more insight into the layout of the book, we have a first glimpse into the zine ready for you.

This is the first draft of the article about corporations. More pages are in progress and may look slightly different in the final zine.

Whats next?

We are working on more Stretch Goals to announce later this day. 

Stay tuned!

Funded! The Gates to the Void are open
over 3 years ago – Wed, Sep 07, 2022 at 12:42:35 PM

Dear Backers, 

fellow Wardens of the Void & dwellers in the dark,

this was indeed a headstart into the realms of dreams and hopes. And he have managed to get fundet within ~7 hrs. Not bad, not bad at all.

So what's up next?

While we work on some more artworks, mockups and material to show, there is already the next Stretch Goal at the horizon. When we hit this goal, we will produce a few transmissions for our scenarios, so you have some thematic audio files instead of reading out the content of the tapes you find ingame.

Stay tuned for more!

The Arcanum Team.
