Hello everyone!
Slightly delayed, but inevetable: The monthly Talebones Update.
We have been busy at work and findourselves in the final moves before the pdf is given to the print company for printing the first batch!
Our editor is finalizing their review of everything and we just had two live playtests on this years Feencon in Bonn, Germany. All signs point towards us being able to ship the English copies in October.
This month's picture is of the first draft dice bag - still not perfect but showing what is planned.
I hope everyone has an amazing summer,
Best wishes,
Nicky and Team | Talebones

Happy Pride Month to all of you! 🏳️🌈
We are making good progress and want to tell you about it~
The editor has finished their first pass of the book and gave good feedback. Now we are in progress of working through the feedback and finishing up the content of Talebones.
In that vain we have finished the list of all Character Options (267 in total!!!). After some last playtesting those will be finished up too.
In (boring) bookkeeping news, we have found a printer for the card decks and have organized the production of dice bags and game master screens.
As you can see, we are hard at work and determined to meet our deadline. Disasters can still happen, so we can't guarantee on-time delivery yet, but it's looking good!
Best wishes and stay safe,
Nicky and Team | Talebones
Busy April (Update)

Greetings to you all!
Our April has been busy and exhausting at some points. But there was a lot of bright moments too!
Our editor has received the current draft and already sent a lot of feedback we are currently including into the project. Furthermore the finished plushies have finally arrived and are looking amazing! (see picture for boxes~)
In May we are aiming to finish the content of the book, so we can focus completely on formating and final compositing of the core rule book! Everyone is working hard to reach that goal, and we are very hopeful that we will be able to inform you that we are ons chedule afterwards.
Otherwise we wish you a lovely May and early summer,
Nicky and Team | Talebones
An Editor and overall progress

A fashionable day late (to dodge the April fools allegations) we update you on our progress, and it is looking splendid!
From my own money outside the kickstarter funds we have now an editor helping us, checking over general wording and comprehensiveness of the book! So an even higher quality of the final product!!
Otherwise there has been a steady progress in writing new bosses, locations, spells and more. Our amazing artists have been labouring as well, so you get a sneak peak on one of the finished art pages, same as last month.
For April we have planned to spent the time waiting for the editor to do their work by finishing up the backer submissions for locations and bosses and have at least an outline of all available boss encounters that will be in the book.
I hope April treats you well,
Nicky and Team | Talebones

One month further into development and we are sticking to the schedule!
We have succesfully finished the first proof reading of the Draft and can now dive back into developing the actual game~
Du to that we will run a few more playtests in the coming months, testing the bosses and abilities that will be added.
If you are interested in joining such a playtest, come join our Discord server and check out the channel #announcements!
We will get back to you if there are further updates.
Best wishes,
