Single Map 
November 18th - via: kickstarter.com
Howdy all! As we get closer to the end of the project, I wanted to share and perfectly candid. The project only has a single board (the one you see on the campaign page). I know this may affect some pledges, but I don’t want you to be disappointed... (Read More)
Points Challenge #4: 34 Points
November 16th - via: kickstarter.com
I had a really nerve-racking run in the beginning where I was threading the spot between the jumps. Anyway! Still only 34 points. And here is the distribution record of the path I took: 1, 5, 6 1, 2, 5 3, 4, 6 2, 3, 6 1, 3, 6 2, 2, 5 1, 4, 4 1, 2,... (Read More)
Proof Book Edits
November 15th - via: kickstarter.com
I received the proof in the mail on Monday. I had to do some edits to the cover and pages. I thought I would share some details about it. The cover came out a lot darker than I expected. Because of that the grid doesn't show up very well. I... (Read More)
Every Night is Game Night Podcast
November 14th - via: kickstarter.com
A podcast I listen to, Every Night is Game Night, recently released a podcast about Honeycomb Cavern. I had the opportunity to talk about the game and its influences. Wouldn't be here with this project without the likes of y'all. Thanks so much for... (Read More)
Who is Sadie Cat?
November 13th - via: kickstarter.com
I've received a few inquiries about who Sadie Cat is. Is she a cat? Is she a dog? I've decided to share the short story that I wrote about Sadie Cat's first adventure. It was written back in August and is, for a lack of a better phrase, terribly... (Read More)
$500 Reached
November 12th - via: kickstarter.com
Looks like all physical books are getting a Sadie Cat sticker! You get a sticker. You get a sticker. You get a sticker! Better send in the proofs tonight to make sure these can go out with books in December! (Read More)
Added Stretch Goal
November 9th - via: kickstarter.com
Added a financially responsible and fun (I hope!) stretch goal. Doesn't take away from the game if it doesn't happen and it's a nice extra for if we hit the goal! If you've ordered multiple books, you'll get multiple stickers. (Read More)
Points Challenge #3: 36 Points
November 8th - via: kickstarter.com
The current suggestion for Honeycomb Cavern notation is: Die 1, Dice 2, Die 3 (Direction, Distance) If the player decides to not use the roll, then they put (X) for the direction and distance. What should follow should be a jump. A jump can be... (Read More)
Honeycomb Cavern Artwork
November 7th - via: kickstarter.com
Honeycomb Cavern had a concept phase that just involved drawing and theming. At one point it was going to be about a pirate ship being pushed by the winds to collect treasure strewn about the sea. Ultimately I decided to use Sadie Cat as that was a... (Read More)

Funded in 3 Days!
November 3rd - via: kickstarter.com
THANK YOU! Yahoo! Honeycomb Cavern is fully funded! A few folks have reached out to me to think about stretch goals. I've personally contemplated the idea of a free laminated game board, better paper weight (50# to 60#), but ultimately I'm not quite... (Read More)

November 2nd - via: kickstarter.com
Howdy! A smart and wonderful individual suggested that I create a "less ink" version of the game board for those who want to sample and print the game at home. You can grab it here or save the image below: Dropbox Link (Read More)
Point Challenge #1: 31 Points
November 1st - via: kickstarter.com
One of the ways I had planned to extend competitive play was to post challenges to players to see if they can beat the score that I get using my dice rolls. Good luck! Feel free to comment below with your score (not sure if you can attach images)!... (Read More)
Added Reward Tier - Multiple Copies
October 31st - via: kickstarter.com
KS shuns the idea of adding reward tiers that are simply multiples of the item outside of a special condition, like a "dealer's pack of 10". I added a new tier marked as "multiple". Every multiple of $6 you pledge I'll add a book to the reward, no... (Read More)
Four plays between meetings.
October 30th - via: kickstarter.com
I was able to get in four games in between meetings today. I'm using the "DiceToGo" app on my iPhone to do my 3d6 rolls. Have you tried printing out the board and giving it a go? What's your high score? (Read More)
