about 1 year ago
– Wed, Sep 17, 2025 at 11:51:22 AM
Hello backers! We're back again to share another piece of Humblewood: Beyond the Canopy with you, along with a status update about the adventure.
Humblewood: Beyond The Canopy Chapter 3, Part 1 V0.01 PDF
Right after this update goes live, we'll be sending out PDFs of the first two sections of the "Exploring Wesden" chapter of Beyond The Canopy to all backers receiving digital rewards. Just like the previous release, this is a work in progress, and it is missing some final artwork and a full proofread. It contains a general guide to adventures in Wesden, as well as "Humblewood and its Hinterlands," a primer for the Humblewood region featured in the first Humblewood book, and "The Crystal Expanse," a deep dive into the frozen north of Wesden.
PDF Feedback
Once you've had a chance to check out the PDF, we'd love to hear your thoughts! Head on over to the feedback form and tell us what you think.
Heart of Ice Adventure Status - End of 2025
We are hard at work on the final edit of the adventure that is included in Humblewood: Beyond the Canopy, but it is unfortunately taking longer to complete than expected and we will not have the final version ready for you until closer towards the end of 2025.
To help tide you all over, we will be sharing the raw text of the adventure in PDF form as part of our October 2025 update.
It will be just the text, without its final edit and without any art, but will allow you to read and give feedback on the adventure in its current state. We're excited to get your thoughts on it in October!
