Created by Mythworks

Hey Everybody,


Ray here back with your week one update. And what a killer week one it was - as of writing we have 960 backers and $73,330 raised. Those are incredible numbers that have far exceeded our wildest expectations. Thank you fam. Y'all are amazing.


I'm back from my Memorial Day vacation at Lightning in a Bottle and guess what I saw?!?



Not quite a slug, but definitely some kind of sign! Here's to all the interdimensional synchronicity out there in the multiverse. 

Today's update focuses on two community activities we'll be running throughout the rest of this campaign:

Wilkie's Pog Jam!


First, let's talk about Pogz! Mythworks and Wilkie's Candy Lab are bringing back the eponymous collectibles in 2025. If we can, we'll be including punch out pogz with each set of Slime, Warp, Solder.


But what can you do with pogz? All sorts of things! They're tokens, play objects, artifacts - whatever you can think of, really. To brainstorm some fun ideas, Mikey is hosting a game jam over on Itch.

AYE YO!

In celebration of Slime, Warp, & Solder, we're having a pog jam!
Jam Details
  • Make something that uses pogs! Mini-games, ttrpg game aids, Slugblaster rules variations, new subsystems, whatever!
  • Go as big or small as you want! A screenshot of a single sentence is absolutely appropriate. 
  • Slime, Warp, & Solder will ship with 12 pogs. That information may inspire you. 
  • No AI art, thx.
  • You are free to reference Slugblaster.
  • You are free to sell your submission.
  • Submissions will be hidden until the jam ends.
  • Join the discord to jam with others!
  • This is the definition of unnecessary, so please have fun. 

Share in the Discord or in the comments for this campaign what your ideas are! We're looking forward to seeing what you can come up with :)



PIMP MY SLUG 💰💼👑


You may have seen this backer tier when thinking about what to get for this campaign:


We wanted to include a $1 tier in case anyone just wanted to support us and help boost the algorithm. While making the image reward tier, we had a lot of laughs pimping the slug out with a bucket hat, chain, and party shades. So much so that we thought it would be hilarious to see what you, dear backers, could come up with.

So, we're throwing a contest! 

  • From now until the end of this campaign, PIMP YOUR SLUG and show us what you got! 
  • The winning pimped out slug will be forever immortalized in pog form.
  • To participate, show your pimped slug on our community wall for this campaign.
  • When the campaign ends, we'll put up all of the entrants to vote.
  • Please only use the artwork provided, original art or open sourced art for your entry.
  • You can use the image below as a starting point (though it's not necessary):



Maybe your pimped slug has a fur coat. Or a pacifier. Or cheese dust hands! The possibilities are endless. Go wild. Have fun! And SHOW US WHAT YOU GOT! 

-------------

That's all for today's update! Looking forward to everyone's entries into our two  community activities this campaign!

Hey Everyone,

Thank you for joining us day one. You are all incredible  💜

We have a lot of fun community activities planned for this campaign including an art contest (sort of) and a game jam. But for now, we just wanted to express our gratitude to all of you for making this happen. It's been a really tough campaign for reasons I don't need to get into again, but seeing all of you show up and rolling in - over 300 at the time of writing before 10 AM Pacific - has been incredibly cathartic. 

There have been a couple of early questions which I rolled into the FAQ, but here they are too for visibility's sake: 


Where do you ship from?

We have warehouses in the USA, Europe, UK, and distribution with our partners to Australia and Canada. 


I don't see POGs anywhere as an item?

So this one's an ongoing discussion. Pogs were a last minute idea that we loved so much and wanted to roll with, but present significant challenges in the current enviro. We're trying to get the pogs into the boxed set but have to double-check that they won't skyrocket our costs. If we're able to do so, they'll be included with every Slime, Warp, Solder Set. If not, we'll print them separately and include them with the "All the New Things" and "Deluxe" tiers and offer them as an add-on after the campaign closes. 


If I get a physical copy, will I get a PDF?

Yes, you'll receive a digital copy of your physical good. There were a couple of the backer thank you tiers that I think did not have them listed, but they will be provided. So, if you got Slugblaster; Core or GOTY as part of your reward tier, you'd receive the Slugblaster Core PDF. Same with Slime, Warp, Solder. 




Like last campaign, we're also going to throw in some silly little Achievements that we'll film. Last time, Mikey did a frontside 180 after hitting 360 backers. If you have any suggestions, please throw them in comment below!  

Thanks everybody. That's it for now - we'll update again soon (probably next week)!
