Hello there Fablemaker Fans! Winter is here, which means the year is coming to a close and soon 2023 will nothing but a hazy memory. Next year is shaping up to be a good one though, as we continue the production process for the Fablemaker's Deck of Many Things, and start rolling out the digital rewards you unlocked during the campaign!
Production Update
As we mentioned in a previous update, all the files are with the manufacturer and the process of digital and physical proofing is under way! We are waiting on some samples and should have some physical proofs to show you in our next update.
Also, we are shipping Yoshi a TON of bookplates for them to sign, so wish them (and their wrist) good luck!
===
Hope you all have a great holidays, more to come in 2024!
Best,
Hit Point Press

Smoke Tests landing soon! + Backerkit Guide + File Distribution Progress
about 1 year ago
– Thu, Nov 16, 2023 at 12:27:22 PM
Hey backers!
We’re happy to share that the smoke tests are going out shortly, we're waiting on confirmation from Backerkit that everything looks good on their end and we're pushing it live! Only 5% of backers will receive a smoke test, so if you don’t receive one during this process, your survey will go out with the rest of the backers once we’ve confirmed everything is working as expected!
If everything goes perfectly with the smoke test we’ll send the rest of the surveys on Monday November 20th!
When the surveys go out, we ask that you complete it as soon as possible so we can make our orders with our production partners. We’re looking to get 80% of the surveys filled before mass production starts.
We’ve included a guide to help you complete your surveys below a quick update on some digital releases.
BackerKit Survey Guide
1) Select your country for shipping and click "Get Started". If you would like to upgrade to a higher pledge tier, locate the link under the "Get Started" button and click that instead. Please note that if you switch pledge levels, add-ons selected on Kickstarter will not be automatically applied to BackerKit.
2) Please read the question prompts and proceed into the BackerKit "store" (Add-Ons section).
3) Once in the store, you’ll see a list of the items included in your Kickstarter pledge on the right side of the page. On the left, you’ll see the options for add-ons!
4) Once you've selected all the items you want, click "Next".
5) Enter your shipping address and click "Next".
6) Confirm the provided information is correct, provide a payment method, and click "Confirm"
Please note: Due to limitations using PayPal, it is not currently enabled as a payment option for this project. We are looking at making it available closer to when we’re charging cards for outstanding balances due to add-ons and shipping costs. Backers who intend to use PayPal as their payment method should be able to complete their surveys then.
Surveys and addresses will be locked closer to fulfillment so you’ll be able to make changes even after submitting your survey until we let you know otherwise! Payment for outstanding balances and shipping will be collected at a later date.
Commonly Asked Questions on BackerKit Surveys
Can I upgrade my pledge through the survey?
Yes! When you get your survey hit the button below "Get Started". This will enable you to up your pledge tier in case you've decided you want a different deal!
My payment didn’t go through and I was dropped from the Kickstarter. What do I do?
Don’t panic! You should still receive the BackerKit survey and you’ll be able to pay for your pledge there.
I missed the campaign. When will preorders be open?
We're accepting pre-orders!
Check out the Backerkit pre-order store!
Orders placed here are considered BackerKit preorders, not Kickstarter pledges, and will ship after we fulfill backer rewards.
DIGITAL FULFILMENT UPDATE: Fablemakers Deck of Many Things PDF Guidebook and Cards + Animated Tarot PDFs
The following files (for those who backed them) will be available to download once you fill out your survey!
- The Fablemaker's Deck of Many Things Print'N Play PDF Guidebook + Cards
- The Fablemakers Animated Tarot Print'N Play PDF Guidebook and Cards

BackerKit surveys go out!
Surveys will then be sent out to collect your shipping details, along with your pledge selection and add-ons. You'll be able to upgrade your pledge or add additional add-ons with the survey as well! As we get closer to releasing surveys, we will have information on how to fill out your survey, as well as specifics for choosing your add-ons. We ask that you hold your BackerKit questions until then! Surveys will be open until we start fulfilling, but to guarantee your order we suggest filling out the survey as soon as possible.
