More packages heading out.

May packages
These are heading out! If you supported as of 4/30/18, you’ll be getting one. If you supported soon after, you are likely getting one too as we are trying to make up for lost time. But we’ve been rocking and rolling after way too long of a delay. April just went out. May is heading out, and June is here and getting assembled next. July and August have parts on their way and the last parts are going to be ordered in the next 48 hours. If that all happens, we are getting August out in August and never looking back.
I never want to talk about the delays again. So catching up is my top Patreon goal, and it's so close to a reality.
Digital goodies
While focusing on physical games, the digital games have taken a backseat. My goal for tomorrow is to update the PNP folders and rules folders with more Timestamp, Dsyx, Banned Books and the latest games. So if you want to grab your PNP of Stew / Arcane Bakery Clash, go for it as we’re going to rotate it out ASAP.
Does anyone else have a love/hate relationship with summer?
The summer (especially THIS summer) is amazing because I get to spend time with my kids that I normally don’t get. There are also summer cons and all of that fun. But it seems like the entire world just shuts down. All grooves are shot. So shooting video and recording podcasts gets pushed aside for dropping one kid off at theater camp and the other at the town pool. As I’m writing this my daughter is making me stick one hand in every batch of slime she made, pick a favorite and guess how much all 12 different slimes weigh. I wouldn’t trade it for the world, but my broken schedule is weeping.
What does this mean? Well it means I have no excuses come September. The groove will be here and no amount of slime will pull me away.
Liberation is under a week away.
As we wrap some old projects, a new one is right around the corner. Liberation is a 2 player cat and mouse style game of good vs evil. If you’ve ever played Star Wars Rebellion and wanted it striped down to 1/10 the time and 1/100 the size, Liberation might be up your alley. Look for it on Kickstarter next week (with your discount details here), but for now we have the above pretty Scott King photo to look at. :)
And finally, is anyone from Nashville?
We are sponsoring the Nashville Game Night next Wednesday (8/15) and I will be in attendance. It’s always great to meetup with friends from here, and I’ll be bringing some of our upcoming games. If you are around, it sounds like it should be a good time.

No need, Jason! I received a copy in my June envelope. You're so on top of things you don't realize how on top of things you are, and that's super impressive. Thanks!
Button Shy
Andrew, I'm making an envelope here with them now. Sorry about the mixup.
Button Shy
I just replied privately. Sorry for the poor experience, we're doing everything we can to prevent it from happening in the future.
Matthew Mitchell
I would be frustrated too. What month did you get charged for? Have you tried reaching out to Jason directly?
Denman Scofield
I’ve still yet to receive anything.
Matthew Mitchell
That's sad to hear! Button Shy has been a little behind in shipping, but they're working desperately to get caught up! My first 2-3 months I didn't get much either, but now packages are coming regularly! I'd encourage you to give it another try. They're a great company with some fun games and unique ideas and content!
Denman Scofield
I was signed up for more than a month. Never received anything. Finally just cancelled my support.
Andrew Boyd
Hey there, I must've been in the first batch of April packages, because there weren't any Lazer Battlefield rules that month. I didn't get the rules this month either. Any chance of including a physical copy in the June package for me?
Karen Goetz
I am still waiting for the "welcome" package... Would love to try the banned books because as a solo player this is one of the reasons for signing up in the first place.
Jason Sanchez
Is your plan still to update the PnP folder soon?
Jake Schurmann
Okay. Thank you very much for the information. I look forward to it.
Button Shy
If you signed up in July, your first payment would have been taken out August 1st. You're due for the August package which is coming near the end of the month. You might get something sooner. :)
Jake Schurmann
Can somebody please give a little information? I signed up in July. When can I expect to be charged and sent something. I am very new at this.
Button Shy
Happy to hear this! As soon as I get past a few more things we're going to add some new games to the PNP list. The Gen Can't games (including non-winners that we are doing), Samson & Delilah, maybe something else... :)
Travis Morton
I'd be more bummed if most of the games I was able to play weren't PNPs from Button Shy. The GenCan't games are both awesome. I love Liberation. And was very happy to playtest the games Anthelion and Penny Rails. And come on... Sprawlopolis is just a milestone in microgames let alone wallet games.
