January 2025 – Monthly Update
Hi everyone!
We’re kicking off 2025 with a fresh look for our monthly updates, and we hope you like it!
Our team is buzzing with energy this year, and we’ve been hard at work on some exciting projects. Let’s dive into the highlights:
1. Introducing Incoming!
You might remember us mentioning this last year, but we’re thrilled to officially announce the launch of our new Incoming! system.
Essentially, Incoming! combines a booking system (P-300) with a community-driven approach to game development, complemented by a crowdfunding campaign hosted on our website.
How it works:
Book games: Browse our Incoming! catalog and book games you’d love to see published. Booking a game is free; payment will be requested once the game reaches the Collect Payments phase.
Reach the goal: Once a game reaches 300 bookings, we move to the development phase.
Pre-launch: Once two games are nearing production, they enter the pre-launch phase.
Collect payments: When 500+ orders are placed in total, we trigger the printing process.
Shipping: Games are shipped immediately after manufacturing.
Explore the Incoming! section and discover exciting new games waiting for your support. We also have two games ready for pre-launch!
2. Our First Pre-launch Campaign
To celebrate the launch of Incoming!, we’ve prepared our first pre-launch campaign featuring two fantastic games: “Iwo Jima: Hell On Earth” and “Sea & Steel: Columbus’ Voyages.”
Why this approach?
- Community Support: As a small, independent publisher, your support is crucial to bringing these games to life.
- Print-on-Demand: This model allows us to minimize risk and ensure you receive high-quality games.
- Fair Pricing: We’re passionate about offering our games at a price that’s accessible to all wargamers.
Don’t miss out! Book your copies today and enjoy a significant discount when you purchase the bundle.
