Last Hope - a Dark Magical Girls TTRPG

Hello everyone!

The last few days have been way calmer so we were able to do a couple of things such as:

We also received an answer from the printer earlier today and we now know can cover the base costs of a 100 deck print run using funds from previous projects! Additional decks ordered during the campaign will offset the costs to increase the print run's size (if needed), and since it was a *very* popular choice (more than we thought), we decided to just add it to the campaign as an add-on! 

The cards will be Tarot-sized (2.75 x 4.75 inches, double-sided) and use 12 pts C2C cardboard. All decks will come with an illustrated tuck-in box to protect the cards, and will have the text in both French and English. All tiers that should have received them as an "unlocked" Stretch Goal will have them added to their included items.

The Solo Mode is well underway for funding! We are currently at 93%, so let's do this together! The NEXT Stretch Goal is currently a Soundtrack, but there's still time to turn the tides (it's a tight race between the VTT and the Soundtrack)!

Hello everyone!

We want to thank you again for all of your support. It's been an amazing campaign so far and we are still stunned by the success. 221% funded and 334 Backers is... beyond anything we could have ever hoped! Like, really, wow, no words can express our gratitude enough.

The winner for the next Stretch Goal is a Solo Adaptation! While we want to keep the vibes of « friendship is important when fighting corruption (inside and outside The Dreamscape) », we'll adapt the game so you can play as the sole protagonist (you'll probably still be able to control your little squad or something (maybe both), we're still pondering)!

If you are intrigued by the results of both polls, our compilation gave the following order for what's next after the solo mode:

But why, oh why aren't they in the graphic to know how much you need to unlock them, you may ask?

Well, we've been in touch with our local printer for the card deck and we are waiting for their quotes. If it is something that we CAN cover, the deck will NOT be a Stretch Goal, we'll just add it to the available add-ons (and the big, physical tiers will have them added to their pledge, as if it was an unlocked Goal). Exciting!

The deck of cards was so popular that it will be the next goal, if we don't just... unlock it because we can!

We also wanted to make a new Poll that would include choices 2 to 5, in case you changed your mind (and to include new Backers)! As we said before, we didn't really plan anything following the higher quality print, and we want YOU to tell US what you want!


Again, thank you SO, SO much for your incredible support. We're extremely happy to be able to offer you the best possible version of Last Hope. We couldn't to this without you, you're all amazing!

If you wish to check out more Pocketopia projects, you can check all banners and games HERE! You might even find the game you never know you needed (and a bunch of free stuff if you back multiple projects)!

We're also in a collaboration with Geekhive Labs for their Aetas Draconis project! They offer a beautiful deck of playing cards, which you can also use as a cartomancy oracle. It's dragon-themed too and dragons are cool!

That's all for us for now, thank you again, and have a great day/evening/night, wherever you're from!

What in the flip flop is this?!? We reached our 3RD Stretch Goal in less than 72 hours and there's now 302 of you?

It's so crazy how great it is going! We've been loving checking your comments and see your enthusiasm for our game. The community has been so nice and engaging, we've been smiling so much because of you! All early birds tiers end at 13:00 pm on May 10th, so there's still time for you to upgrade your pledge or make a new one before they disappear forever!

Backers can access a poll, which is linked on this update, and we've added another for your SECOND favorite! Don't forget to vote if there's a goal you'd want to see unlocked. The poll to cast your votes for the next Stretch Goals will close on Tuesday, May 12th at 15:00 EDT! Since we're funding faster than everything we anticipated, we want to make sure we're prepared and contact the right people, ask how much it would be, etc.

We also have a personal quest added to the Achievements (just for fun). When we reach 36,560$, which is the TOTAL we made, including pre-orders and shipping fees on our previous big project, all physical orders will receive a free character emoji sticker sheet (you will be able to select your favorite one in the pledge manager)! We'll also add the development of a mini-game, much like the personality quiz, for the Gacha rolls, so you can use it during your games, either on your phones, tablets, or computer.

Wow, well we have no words!

We feel like it's been two days and two months at the same time. We can't believe what is happening and we are so excited, happy, every emotions in the book!

Our next goal is now 27,500$! We'll be able to upgrade the base quality of the book from Inkjet printing to digital. This is the LAST Stretch Goal we planned, and we've created a survey to know which future ones you would like to see!

Thank you so much for your support, let's continue to make this game the best version of itself!

That's it, that's the update, have a great weekend.

Wow. We went to rest because, let's be honest, planning a crowdfunding campaign when you're three people in a basement is quite tiring, and we already smashed through the first goal?!

We can now officially add illustrations for various genders and appearances for the different Hearts! Our character artist is going crazy (and us too). She's very passionate about Magical Girls and she wants to thank all of you for your amazing support (so much so that she's decided to do sticker sheets emojis for all characters, for free)! We'll probably add them as add-ons if some of you want to pick them up.



We'll be launching a poll sooner than expected, since the campaign is going very well, to know which first new goal you would like to see - we're pretty confident that we'll unlock the higher quality book. Our current choices are:

Our next goal is now set at 23,500$! We will be commissioning more splash illustrations and monsters, as well as adding Vic Corbella to our roster of artists!
