Two Weeks Left and Another Cool Project to Check Out

Hey everyone, I'm happy to see everyone excited about the announcement of our amazing slipcase with artwork done by Phil Summers. For those of you who choose the limited tier, you'll also have the opportunity to submit a Metroidvania story for the book, so be sure to prepare something to preserve in the book!

Speaking of amazing, there is another book on Kickstarter that I would like to share. It's called the Game Book Color. 

Having already covered the original GameBoy platform in 2023's GameBook: The Unofficial DMG Companion, Paul Murphy is back with a follow-up book, dedicated to the GameBoy Color and revisiting many games from the vast repertoire available. What you get here is pure, unadulterated love for the successor in the GameBoy line.

I preordered Paul's original book and this one looks to be as equally awesome! I preordered a copy myself!

Mid-Campaign Slipcover Art Reveal!
12 months ago – Sat, Dec 02, 2023 at 09:47:08 PM

Good Evening Backers! 

As promised, we have a special treat for you. The amazingly talented Phil Summers, known for his Hand-Drawn Game Guides, has done an amazing art piece for our Limited Edition Slipcases that showcases the games that are featured in Phase 1 of the Metroidvania Chronicles!

The bottom is left black to show contrast.
The art will also go over the spine of the slipcase, not shown in the mock-ups.
Share with your friends and let's hit some stretch goals!

By request, I have also created an add-on tier so backers can add an extra copy of the book with the slipcase. (I cannot just add the slipcase by itself as the books will be shipped inside the slipcase during production and not be produced individually so it has to be sold together.)
