Second trash fire to the right, and straight on till morning

Raccoons and raccoon lovers! I’ve just mailed out the last Kickstarter backer rewards—30 prints and 22 drawings. They won’t arrive by Christmas, but U.S. backers should get them before the end of the year.

While the Kickstarter is over, I continue to support the game. It’s now available on Indie Press Revolution (www.indiepressrevolution.com), including wholesale for stores. And I’ll keep selling it, along with extra dice and decks of cards, on my site, www.hecticelectron.com/shop.

To keep the conversation going, join me and like-minded people on the Discord server: https://discord.gg/A53vbwg82V, where the love for raccoons, possums and their kin is always flowing. You never know—one (or more) of the users there may really be three raccoons with a keyboard. The internet is like that. I’ve also got other, non-raccoon-based games in the works, and the Discord is a great place to hear about them when they become ready for beta testing.

I’d like to thank you all one last time, all the backers, all the cheerleaders, everyone who helped get Raccoon Sky Pirates off the ground. This adorable, furry, scope-creeping game has changed my life. I hope it is and continues to be a positive part of all of yours.

The Raccoons Have Left the Building

Hello raccoons at home and around the world! This morning, I mailed off the last of the zines, card decks and dice. Backers in the U.S. should get them before Thanksgiving. Backers in other countries will probably have to wait a little longer. I hope you enjoy the coming raccoon invasion. Have fun—I’d love to hear about your games!

Time to update your address!

Hi raccoon backers! You should have received an email from BackerKit asking you to update your shipping address. Please do so if you need to! In two days, BackerKit will lock all the addresses, so this is the time to do it! If you don’t see the email, I don’t have the precise link, but you can go here to find where to update your address: https://raccoon-sky-pirates.backerkit.com

In other news, I got the printed zines and the cards this week! And I’m busily wrapping the dice for shipment. The only thing I’m waiting for are the boxes to put them all in. That will be a couple weeks. So I’m still looking at early November to get the zones, cards and dice to you. Coming soon!
