Prototypes are Arriving!
about 3 years ago – Sun, Dec 19, 2021 at 12:07:37 AM

Hello friends,

The holidays are coming and we just wanted to take a moment as a company to say thank you again. Maestro Media sprang out of a desire to create the greatest games and connect with the most passionate audiences. You've all proven to be the passionate audience, and with your help over the past couple months giving card feedback, we're going to deliver the greatest game.

If you don’t follow @edmundmcmillen or @themaestroteam on Twitter, you haven’t seen the latest reveals! We’re rounding the corner on mass production, it’s an exciting time, and what better time of year than this?

We’ll start with a couple pictures.

Here’s the first look at Blue Baby with the companion plush. A lot of time and effort went into making this the perfect piece of sh*t, and we really feel there’s endless possibilities here.

Edmund’s been adding to the collection for those backers of the Mystery Box tier. We won’t spoiler everything, otherwise it wouldn’t be a Mystery Box, but here’s a little peek at some items that will make it into some of the boxes!

Perhaps pictures aren’t enough for you though, how about some videos? First we have the stickers, notice as Edmund is peeling the back away that the backing is transparent.

This next one is all about the dice, but you may notice a few other things also in the shot.

How about one of the first looks at the Big Boi Box in all of its glory?

Finally, a great look at Baby Plum. First a warning, while we can’t stop you from punching, kicking, throwing or emulating this video, we don’t recommend using Baby Plum in this way it’s too adorable.

Have a happy holidays and we'll see you all again soon,

~The Maestro Team

Hello Friends,

We have uploaded all tweaked and updated cards onto foursouls.com and we now have about 24 hours for final feedback from everyone. We're asking just for spelling and grammatical feedback on the cards at this point. We're very happy with the balance of the cards in their current state. 

We want to express our deepest appreciation to all of the people who have given their feedback to help improve this game for the better! Sevenut, Yuggy, egghorse, Kizzycocoa for keeping the cards and foursouls.com updated and running. ThatBoyTroy, Glutzahn, MasterRoshi, Cody Underwood, and Dinkster for all of their assistance keeping the feedback rolling in. There are numerous others who have been working hard behind the scenes helping the balance and flow of the game. Thank you all!

Hello Friends,

Thank you to everyone who was able to participate and gave feedback on the cards at foursouls.com! Thanks to you Edmund, Sevenut, Yuggy, and their small team can compile the remaining feedback and get the cards ready to be translated and then printed. This is a huge undertaking and all of you have made this easier. Thank you again! You can still view the cards at foursouls.com at your leisure, but we are not collecting feedback at this point. In just a few days the foursouls.com team will upload all of the edited cards onto the site. From there we'll have about 24 hours for grammar and spelling feedback before the cards are finalized.

The Cards Have Arrived! Pt 3

Hello Friends,

Foursouls.com!

A very similar post today! Another HUGE batch of cards have arrived on foursouls.com. Head over there now to check them out! We're expecting a ton of traffic, so we apologize if it loads slowly, there's a ton of high quality images on the site and it's doing a lot of work on the back end as we continue to upload cards. For the archivists, linkers, TTS Modders, etc please use the Google Drive Folder for those purposes. Also, the initial wave of people seems to continue to overload the site. The Google Drive Folder should help spread the traffic out if you want to check it out there, and if you notice issues check the Google Doc site to see if it's up there yet and then drop it in the comments. If you are on foursouls.com please continue using the feedback form there. In the next few days we will try to post some updated cards and let you know when those are live for one more round of feedback before the games go to the manufacturer!

Remember to check the Google Doc to see if the card you're looking at already has the same feedback and if not then upload your feedback and suggestions directly on the site so it can be quickly read through by the team as we will have a tight turn around to deliver all of these cards to the manufacturer and localization partners.

If you have just finished your survey in Backerkit, we are charging new cards about once a week, so the charge will come relatively soon for you.

We'll be back soon with more!
