GrymmWorld Full PDF Released
about 3 years ago
– Tue, Mar 23, 2021 at 09:08:19 AM
The Community PDF of GrymmWorld is now available through Backerkit! You should have received an email and should be able to download it now. For the next week (Until March 28), we'll be in the "community errata" phase - this is the opportunity for any final changes to apply to the project, and we give it a final proofreading pass before we finalize it for distribution and sale.
The Next Kickstarter Update will be Sunday, April4, if not before.
March 28 - Backerkit closes, community errata collection closed, proofreading finished
April 4 - Final PDFs delivered, printing & shipping starts (international will deliver about two weeks earlier than US, due to COVID scheduling adjustments in US).
May16 - All GrymmWorld prints and pdfs delivered to all backers.
Thank you so much for the patience on this project. Our sincere apologies getting this out to you much later than planned. The book is going to be excellent - a truly eclectic, amazing experience to develop and play unique stories in a fantastic new way.
As Always,
Please let us know if there are any questions or concerns in the comments below or in our discord. Thank you again for your support on this project.

Quick Update - Formatting Started
about 3 years ago
– Mon, Mar 01, 2021 at 01:01:42 PM
A quick, but substantive update
The writing and art for GrymmWorld is complete! It's been a project, but we are finally moving into formatting, print, and fulfillment, which means our schedule is much more certain; the dates below are our current best estimates for next-steps, and delivery. We will be on-demand printing these, rather than bulk printing, hence the more-rapid print delivery estimates compared to the previous KS update.
The Next Kickstarter Update will be Sunday, March 21, if not before.
March21 - First full formatted draft PDF delivered through Backerkit
March 28 - Backerkit closes, community errata collection closed, proofreading finished
April 4 - Final PDFs delivered, printing & shipping starts (international will deliver about two weeks earlier than US, due to COVID scheduling adjustments in US).
May16 - All GrymmWorld prints and pdfs delivered to all backers.
Thank you so much for the patience on this project. Our sincere apologies getting this out to you much later than planned. The book is going to be excellent - a truly eclectic, amazing experience to develop and play unique stories in a fantastic new way.
We anticipate the final GrymmWorld formatted book to come in around 150-160 pages, at ~135,000 words.

Chapter 2 Teaser, but a Second Month's Delay - Apologies for the Wait!
over 3 years ago
– Sun, Jan 31, 2021 at 11:14:35 PM
Hello once again Grymmlings! Thanks thus far for your patience, and a late welcome to 2021. Hope it's been treating you all well! While we don't yet have GrymmWorld in your hands, we're so so close to the final it's maddening!
We've been unable to get through the remainder of the copy editing for the GrymmWorld project during January (bottleneck is still at the writing), but we've finished up the art for the project, including a phenomenal map by John Stevenson (Aka: Sir Inkman) and formatted Chapter 2!
The Continent of Prometerra, Central to GrymmWorld
Note that, while this has been copy edited, it has not yet been proofread. If you catch anything, please let us know in discord (preferred) or the comments below!
Next-Steps and Deliverable Estimates
The next Kickstarter update for this project will be Sunday, February 28 or earlier.
GrymmWorld PDF: By February28, 2021 (Delayed from previous)
We're down to the review of the writing from the final chapter - formatting, proofreading and release are all straightforward from there, so we're going to be pushing that as hard as we can!
GrymmWorldPrints:June, 2021 (Tentative)
We typically estimate the prints based on the delivery of the PDFs - four months is tight, five is fairly conservative - hence the adjustment to June - we'll see how printing and deliver of these end up. We're targeting this delivery for the standard and deluxe prints.
As Always,
Thank you so much for your continued patience with this project - we're so sorry for the delays, but we're moving closer and closer to completion! Please let us know if there are any questions or concerns - drop them in comments here or in our discord.
Best,

One Month's Delay - January 2021 Target
over 3 years ago
– Mon, Dec 21, 2020 at 12:35:16 AM
Hi Grymmlings! Happy Holidays - hope everyone is healthy, happy, and warm. We're very please to share the latest GrymmWorld update, though it comes tinged with a light delay in the first full PDF release (We're nearly finished - so sorry for the delays!)
We are currently planningfor a January 31, 2021 release of the PDF for GrymmWorld.
Project Status
In project tracking, we'll periodically put together a quick graphic showing progress across a few areas of development: Writing, Art, Publishing, and Fulfillment. We'll touch on each of these below, with a few specific details in the sections below. Numbers below are representative of progress on each listed section, with the "Overall" metrics being a blended average of all other graphed metrics.
Writing: All of GrymmWorld has been written and 2/3rds of it have been through review and copy editing. We are currently finishing up the internal review of the Introduction, and copy edits on two chapters and the Introduction. Nearly finished!
Art: The major art pieces are complete, with exception of the world map, which is under development! We'll be sharing that on the next update. We are excited to be working with Ethan Hudgens on some of the character and spot-art pieces for the project - more on that below!
Publishing: This constitutes the formatting, PDF and print preparations for the book. It necessarily comes after the writing and art are complete, and is often quite a bit faster than those two previous.
Fulfillment: Fulfillment of the PDFs and prints. Most of this will be printing, as fulfillment on that front is notably more difficult than digital, which will simply be through Backerkit.
Art Updates - Ethan Hudgens
We're so pleased to be working with a mutual friend of Grant's, Ethan Hudgens - creator of Gobs of Gobs, One Last Fight, and Garden of the Giants (more on this last project later!). Ethan's lent his artistic talent used in the Garden of the Giants project to the spot pieces representing varied members of the Grymm and quick scenes through the project. Some examples are below, and you can find Ethan on twitter!
The next Kickstarter update for this project will be Sunday, January31 or earlier.
GrymmWorld PDF: By January 31, 2021 (Delayed from previous)
Unfortunately, we've had to delay the release of the initial PDF of GrymmWorld. Review of the unique writing style and presentation of the project has taken a little longer than expected. January 31, 2021 gives us ample time from our current estimates to get this completed and delivered. So sorry for the delay!
GrymmWorldPrints:June, 2021 (Tentative)
We typically estimate the prints based on the delivery of the PDFs - four months is tight, five is fairly conservative - hence the adjustment to June. We're targeting this delivery for the standard and deluxe prints.
