Hello,

Does anybody know when Lords of Gossamer and Shadow is planned to be released ?

Thanks !

Qwilion

We don't have an official release date, as Jason Durall is still developing the manuscript (his day job has kept him insanly busy), Once that is done it will go to patron feedback, playtesting, editing, development for artwork, followed by layout ext. We won't list a release date until the product is in its final form, and then it will be 4 months from that date (the draw back of the solicitation cycle for Brick and Mortar).

There is some interesting discussion on the LoGaS boards, but you have to be a patron in order to read or contribute. However, it's safe to say that the project isn't at all dead and the preview material we've seen looks interesting.

For example:
* Jason posted a list of inspirational reading so we could get "into his head" to see the style of the campaign.
* Jason has posted some sample material for one of the principal powers in the game.
* We've seen some layers of concept art.
* There has been some discussion about game system, attribute scale, "geography" and major factions, and more.

I don't want to say too much, since this is all under development and changes could/will occur along the way...

I would presume its still happening, but there hasn't been much news about it lately.

Meanwhile, we're finally moving forward with stuff for Lords of Olympus.  We're deciding the cover art right now.

Still happening, still in development.

I tend not to talk about things in development too much until the manuscript is in the hands of the editor.

The Lead Designer got promoted at his day job and has been working long hours, he recently got fully staffed in his new position and is now able to dedicate more time to the project, Jason Durall is hoping to have a raw demo running at Ambercon.

Ambercon had a LoGaS game on the schedule initially, but the GMs apparently cancelled it.

Jason D

Still working on it!

As Qwillion mentioned above, I had the mixed blessing of a huge promotion at work (nice) but a ton more responsibility. We've just hired another writer to work under/with me, so that takes some of the weight off my shoulders.

Chris Kindred was going back and forth about running it at ACUS, but I think he decided against for schedule reasons.

Development proceeds, Jason Durall posted another piece of the manuscript to the Silver patron forums and we have the 3 initial sketchs by Jason Rainville  in our Silver patron forums that have been discussed by the patrons and both Jasons.

The project is moving along faster now I am  happy to say.

Has it moved on any further now? Just wondering...

Qwilion

Yes

More artwork completed, continuing on with more artwork, and updates continue for our patrons.

Oh and I release one piece of artwork for the artist portfollio and as part of a kickstarter for another project (as a demo of what we can do) so I will display it  here.

I like the picture, (though as a GM I would prefer the hand not to be there).  If the card works anything like trump cards I like to make props with them.

Qwilion

Its not a card its a an arcane app version of an ipad or iphone.
