This is a repost of the November Kickstarter Update. The same information applies to anyone who has pre-ordered Hair of the Dog.
This month’s update will be short and sweet, like a dachshund that rolled in maple syrup. We have our manufacturing completion date. The bulk production of Hair of the Dog will be completed on December 15th. We’ve received a proof copy and are delighted by the results. Here’s what the final product looks like.
Despite Far Away’s arrival, we’ve been keenly focused on getting Hair of the Dog finished. We’re talking with manufacturers to get everything set and expect that production will start within a week. Our timeline is covered in the most recent Kickstarter update, so rather than rehash everything here, we wanted to take a minute to chat about what’s been going on behind the scenes. Transparency is always a good thing, so here’s where our last-minute efforts have been focused.
8/26 Edit: The Far Away drop-off is scheduled for this afternoon. If all goes well, we’ll be shipping the preorder copies tomorrow morning.
8/22 Edit: Our logistics coordinator and I spoke today and the shipment is finally moving onto local transport. Unless another unexpected inspection hits us, the games will be delivered this week.
8/11 Edit: The container with Far Away is undergoing a second inspection (now with x-rays). As frustrating as it is, there’s nothing we can do to speed up this process. We can only hope something more exciting isn’t actually being smuggled with the games.
7/31 Edit: Far Away was selected for a random inspection by US customs, further delaying the process.
Hi everyone,
Thank you for your patience with our two pending games. Here’s a general update to both the Far Away reprint and the Hair of the Dog debut.
Far Away is in the Port of Seattle, a few miles from our office.
Hair of the Dog is still slated for the end of 2022.
