Hello backers!

We hope everyone has been keeping warm in the last few weeks - especially our friends and family in Texas! We've been digging away over at WBG and have some fun updates for you.


Layout Progress: Charles is hard at work and things are looking gorgeous! He sent us the first draft of layout concepts and they totally knocked our socks off. He is definitely taking Axon Punk to the "next level" with layout and things are already looking luscious. We'll be sharing samples in coming updates, so look forward to that!


WBG Website Update and FREE GAME: In a the chaos of this year, our website crashed so we had to rebuild and update. It was totally worth it and is really gorgeous. Cameron did a great job laying the foundation with his own personal site 

Explore our new site to find podcasts, live-play games, and our other games - including the free download of our one-page, self-help game that we designed to help people get themselves out of anxiety spirals.

Breaking Spirals - our one-page, self-help game designed to help you get yourself our of anxiety spirals. Based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Sending our best!

New Layout Designer and Projected Fulfillment Date! - Post-campaign update 9
over 3 years ago – Mon, Feb 01, 2021 at 10:53:12 PM

Hello backers!

We've been hard at work in the Axon Punk forges and have two announcements for this update!


To start, we are thrilled to announce that we have teamed up with a new layout designer to help us take the new edition of Axon Punk to the next level. Colin was originally planning on doing the layout again but our Kickstarter did so well, we decided to spring for hiring a proper layout artist.  The designer, Charles Mayo, was new to us but comes with a boatload of amazing experience. We are so grateful to be able to work with him and he's already brewing up awesome ideas for the book. Very exciting!

Our new layout designer, Charles Mayo - welcome him to the Axon Punk family!

With the addition of Charles to the team, we had the final component of the equation to project a fulfillment deadline for Axon Punk: Expanded. Based on our calculations, we are projecting a fulfillment deadline of the end of May, 2021. Thank you so much for your understanding and patience with the health issues. The extra time and experience will most definitely create a better product, but we also want to respect deadlines and appreciate every individual one of yours support. We know kickstarter can be a wild and often frustrating ride from a backer's perspective, and we look forward to continue giving transparency and communication as we bring this ship in the harbor. Feel free to message if you have any questions!


Thank you!

over 3 years ago – Sun, Jan 17, 2021 at 04:27:35 PM

Hello backers!


It's been a wild start to 2021 for everyone, so we hope you all are doing as well as can be. We have been working through the chaos over at Wrong Brothers Gaming. I'm communicating with the team and things are lining up well. We're lucky to work with so many brilliant people, and we've got lots of exciting updates coming for you in the near future.

For the moment, want to share with you a pre-alpha preview of the Axon Punk: Expanded gamebook.


Pre-Alpha Gamebook Preview:

Here is a preview of our rough "pre-Alpha" version of the Axon Punk: Expanded gamebook. We have highlighted in yellow the areas where we are working on the new content. I'm communicating with the graphic designer we're hoping will do the layout and I'm excited to see where he can take it!


Download here through private DriveThruRPG link.


Here are some clips from the gamebook:

One of the many faces you can meet on the streets of the Megacities in 2085.
Excerpt from the "Character Creation" Chapter.
Preview of the expanded Vehicles section. Lots more coming to help everyone deck out their own personal vehicle for traversing the Megacities. More preview mods in the full PDF.

Sending our best!

Post-campign Update 7 - yay, it's not a tumor!
over 3 years ago – Wed, Dec 16, 2020 at 10:02:54 PM

Hello backers!


Thank you for all of your patience and understanding lately! The last few months have been an absolute rollercoaster for the Wrong Brothers and the Axon Punk team, so we can’t thank you enough for your patience. Even with the madness of this year, we are still unquestionably committed to Axon Punk and have been making progress all along (ya know, between medical emergencies). Here are some updates about where we and the project are:


Colin’s Health Update: Colin had a serious seizure in September and the doctors thought he might have a brain tumor. Thankfully, after more tests, they concluded that what they saw on his MRI is actually scar tissue from some previous brain injury that has already healed. Scar tissue like this is not uncommon and can cause seizures, so the diagnosis is “focal epilepsy”. It’s basically the best diagnosis, but the epilepsy diagnosis comes with lots of lifestyle changes and medication, which is slowing Colin down. He’s working through it and improving every day.


Cameron’s Health Update: this is kind of more awkward and much more formal than I am used to doing. Colin prefers to express himself through text. I am dealing with ongoing anxiety complex post-traumatic stress disorder and other physical issues. Thank you for your concern.


Axon Punk Update: With all these updates, we are working through reassessing our production timeline. Colin and Cameron have had our own issues, but 2020 has been hard on everyone and Axon Punk is a team effort. We super appreciate every single of you backers and want to give you a solid timeline that we will stick to. As we finish working through the links in the chain, we expect to have that timeline for you in the next 2 weeks. Fortunately, all of this is weirdly insightful to Axon Punk and we’ve been writing/playtesting this whole time, so we are really excited to give you something extremely special.


Sending gratitude and you will hear from us again soon!

P.S. Also, our website cashed recently, but Cameron did an awesome job of getting it back up. He/We are working through a rebuild/update on the site as well, so y'all will have a clean, shiny, new website to check out before long as well!
