The Hope//Punk Kickstarter is... Done!

We made it! 

That was a lot! But we made it to the end, and with a much bigger turnout than I could have expected! 

So, what's next?

First, if you want a copy of Hope//Punk right away, you can grab one on DriveThruRPG or Itch.io. Keep in mind that these are Zeroth edition, they're missing all of the content from the digital stretch goals.

(If you happen to grab the files from here... leave a review? It's really hard to break into the TTRPG space, and every review counts for a lot!)

My goal is to have the Backers and Prestige Catalogues in the Core Rulebook for a November 15th full release! That's not as far as you'd think. 

We have 4/10 of the main Backers done, and 3/6 of the Prestige classes complete. The art is coming along as well!

So, past that... this is the rough timeline I'm aiming for:

Nov 15th - Digital Core Rulebook
Nov 15th - Digital Posters
Nov 15th - GM's Cheat-Sheet
Dec 15th - Maps!
Dec 15th - The Mecha Module: Mechanized//Warfare
February 2026 - The Meguca Module: Glitter//Gunfire
March 2026 - Starter Campaign book - Undercity Blues for Overcity Strays
April 2026 - Maps 2!

On top of the above, there are a few things I'd like to do over the course of the next year, assuming that Hope//Punk does relatively well now that it'll be out in the open. I'd love to have a small 'beastiary' module with more Antithesis and monsters. I think that'd make an GM's life easier, and maybe I'll look into Print on Demand sometime in the mid-year. Who knows, it might be a second Kickstarter!

Anyway, thanks a bunch, I hope that those of you who try Hope//Punk have as much fun playing it as I had making it!
