Files in Final Review (And some other cool stuff!)
10 months ago – Fri, Feb 16, 2024 at 01:48:17 PM

Files getting ready to go!

Hey All! We're going over the files for a final time and then we'll be submitting these to our factory for pre-production. We're very excited to get this moving, and we really hope to have these in hand by the time convention season is in full swing. Designer Matthias Bonnici will be at a few conventions in the coming months showing off the game as well. You be able to recognize him as the guy with the Zero Day War shirt. it's a dead give-away.

Some other cool projects

We always love shouting out projects of people we know are producing great work, so check out these fun projects too!

Against the Gloom In Against the Gloom, players take on the roles of punk pirate troubadours sailing across a vast and dangerous void—the Gloom—aboard a ramshackle ship propelled by the power of song. Use your character's sonic powers to push back the Gloom as it seeks to obliterate any pockets of community that dare to resist it. Build your story one gig at a time. We LOVE the team at Scryptid Games, so go show them some love.

Steamboat Willie The Public Domain is a wonderful place, and our good friends at Wannabe Games are setting sail. Steamboat Willie is a solo tabletop roleplaying game about creating a world from a blank canvas. It's also about the connection between art and capitalism.

You play as The Artist creating Mickey Mouse (see below) and storyboarding his adventures. It's every cartoonist’s dream… to actually make a living from your art! This dream comes with a catch: marketing is constantly asking you to make changes. If you refuse to bow to their demands, your art might fade into obscurity. Or you might have to ignore your own conscience to keep your steamboat afloat.

Sentai and Sensibility Like colliding hearts, Sentai & Sensibility brings together the childlike abandon of Sunday morning tokusatsu with the profound joy of regency romance novels. Basically, what if Jane Austen wrote Power Rangers? It's Bridgerton meets Kaiju!! Bug, the designer is AWESOME, and the rest of the 9th Level Games crew are just as great. Check it out!

Cyber Hack #4 This zine features 11 puzzles/brainteasers designed around various principles of text encryption. These brainteasers range from simple logic-based puzzles to established text encryption/ hiding, and can be used in any futuristic TTRPG where you need to throw some thematic puzzles at your players! (Just an FYI, and because of Wet Ink Games' stance on the matter: this zine uses AI art assets, so while it is a super cool idea, this may be a deterrent to many)

A HUGE Thank You!!! (HAXORS!!!)

Zero Day War is FUNDED!!!

With all of your help, Zero Day War has reached our funding goal! We not only funded the game, but we also unlocked the first Stretch Goal giving everyone access to the custom soundtrack for the game. This is a collection of thematic ambient music commissioned solely for the game. Right now, the game components are getting one last review, but then they'll be off to the factory for production.

HAXORS!!!

Apparently, the support and enthusiasm you all have shown for the game caused the crash of the SysNet exposing our Stretch Goals to some extremely talented Hackers. It looks as though they've unlocked all the stretch goals for all versions of the game. 

As special THANK YOU for all of your support, Wet Ink Games is going to absorb any additional cost for these stretch goals.

Zero Day War/Wet Ink Games Q&A

Hey everyone! For those of you new to Wet Ink Games campaigns, one of the things we enjoy doing is wrapping up the campaign with a live Q&A session with those involved in the project. We host these on our Wet Ink Games YouTube channel where we have a number of interviews with artists and designers all over the industry! 

We're going to kick this off around 9 PM Saturday, watch the last few minutes of the campaign, wrap up any final questions and celebrate. We'll have designer Matthias Bonnici, Wet Ink Games Creative Director Matthew Orr, and Wet Ink Games Business Director Brandon K. Aten. We may even have some other special guests hop in and join us. 

You can follow the Wet Ink Games YouTube channel RIGHT HERE!!!

Please come and join us, and keep spreading the word!

FUNDING GOAL MET!!!

Saturday was a good day!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for your continued support of Zero Day War. We reached our initial funding goal on Saturday, which was extra special since that was designer Matthias Bonnici's birthday!!! Seeing that goal hit was a great experience for his special day. 

That said, this campaign isn't over yet. We still have until this Saturday at 10 PM Easter Time to unlock as many Stretch Goals as we can. The great thing is we're already on our way towards the first Stretch Goal, an 1-hour soundtrack for Zero Day War composed by Joachim Heise! This is a great way to set the mood around the table while playing. We're really excited to bring this one to life, so stay tuned and keep spreading the word.
