Pre-production Copy of Favor: Gods of Oethera
about 2 months ago – Thu, Mar 14, 2024 at 04:46:04 PM

Hello and happy early Spring to you all!

It's been a while since we've sent any updates as we've been hard at work these last several months putting the finishing touches on Favor. There's been a lot of back-and-forth collaborations with our manufacturer, LongPack (and still more to do), to bring you the best version of Favor possible. After 4 whole years of development... it's finally arrived!

The first ever pre-production copy of Favor: Gods of Oethera!

We are SO EXCITED to share these images with you, and let you all know that we are still on-track to keep our delivery promise of shipping the game this July. Of course, there is still time for something to go wrong. We will keep you updated on any unexpected changes to our delivery timeline.

But for now, please enjoy these images of Favor's game pieces and components! 

Until next time.

5 months ago – Thu, Dec 21, 2023 at 03:33:49 PM

What a big year for Favor: Gods of Oethera & for Lichenwood Games!

Over this last year, we have finished the game's design through more than 200 playtests, managed a successful Kickstarter campaign, completed all art assets, and showcased Favor at over 10 different conventions!

We are excited to announce that all game files have been submitted to our manufacturer, LongPack, and we are well underway to printing the first demo copy of the game. We are currently on track to fulfill the game by July of 2024!

Thank you, everyone, for your continued love and support of this project. It means the world to us, and we can’t wait to share the final game with you in 2024.

Have a safe and happy holiday season and a wonderful New Year!

Until Next Time,

7 months ago – Fri, Oct 06, 2023 at 10:23:59 AM

Our Pledge Manager, Backerkit, has sent surveys to all backers!

Please check your emails and fill out the pledge manager survey as soon as possible! The Pledge Manager will allow you to purchase add-ons, such as additional copies of Favor or the digital art downloads, as well as give us your shipping address so we can collect state sales taxes. 

REMINDER: SHIPPING WILL BE CHARGED CLOSER TO FULFILLMENT OF THE GAME (ESTIMATED JULY 2024)

Additionally, we already have 1 pre-sale order! If you know anyone who would love a copy of the first ever printing of Favor: Gods of Oethera, send them to our pre-order shop!

Finishing the Game

We are steadily chipping away at the final pieces of the project. We are in contact with our manufacturer and are working to get all game assets into their hands. We will post another update here once everything has been sent off to be manufactured! 

Until Next Time,

We Funded! - What's Next?
8 months ago – Fri, Sep 15, 2023 at 11:25:45 AM

YAY WE DID IT!!!

Lichenwood Games has successfully funded it's first project. Thanks to all of you, Favor: Gods of Oethera will be brought into the world! We hit our first 2 stretch goals, so all copies of the game will included the upgraded acrylic Character and Heart Token pieces. 

So What Now? 

Over the next couple of weeks, Kickstarter will be collecting money from everyone's pledges, then sending the money to Lichenwood's bank account (after processing fees). From there, the money will be invested into manufacturing the game and shipping it to our fulfillment/distribution center. 

Our pledge manager, BackerKit, will be sending everyone an email in the next few weeks with a survey to collect your shipping information and allow for opportunities to update your pledge. ALL SHIPPING COST WILL BE CHARGED CLOSER TO THE  EXPECTED FULFILLMENT DATE IN JULY 2024. This allows for better estimates on shipping costs that may change over the coming months, or for folks who need to change their shipping address closer to fulfillment. 

If you didn't get the chance to buy the game during the Kickstarter, don't worry! We have a pre-order shop through BackerKit where you can grab copies of the different rewards that were offered during the campaign: Pre-order here!

We Still Have Some Finishing Touches to Make to the Game

As of right now, we will have some work to do on art creation, flavor text, rulebook organization and formatting, creating the back of the box, and preparing for tax season (ahhh!). Our current target is to have everything finished by the end of the first week of December 2023. We will update the state of the project whenever we have officially locked in a Manufacturer, have sent all files off to print a demo copy of the game, and updates on the production process before it's time to ship! 

Again, thank you to everyone who supported us during this journey. This wouldn't have been possible without our fans of Oethera! 

Until Next Time,

Peter & 'Leigh
