J'ai commandé le jeu de base à Wolfun il y a 3/4 mois déjà, et je l'attend toujours !

The End of an Era
Hello, intrepid shippers! It is with mixed emotions that we at Horrible People Productions announce that we are dissolving our company and ceasing production on all card games for the foreseeable future. This probably comes as a surprise to many of you! But we’ve mutually decided we’re not interested in running a company any longer and would like to step down.
I’m sure you all have many questions about the fate of TSSSF and BABOC and whatnot. We’re happy to answer them!
1: Will there still be a November sale?
YES! The reason it got delayed was we wanted to make sure we had enough time to get our affairs in order. We also wanted to make sure we could complete all outstanding card promises, so that they can be made available.
INCLUDED IN THE SALE WILL BE: All previously released products, PLUS the Patreon custom card pack (free for all $50 Patrons who have contributed; more about this will be posted on the Patreon), this year’s Make a Card workshop cards, and this year’s promo cards.
There will be long boxes in the sale but NOT MANY. I’m very sorry; the minimum order to get more is 500 and neither we nor Emily Bennet (she who will be mailing these things out to people) have the space to house 35 huge boxes. We have a limited number left over from EQLA and once they’re gone they’re gone.
As a huge thank you to you guys for all you’ve done, we’re offering 15% off all products for our sale! Thanks for being awesome, you guys.
2: What’s going to happen to your games?
BUILD A BETTER OC: We’re going to release what we have for BaBOC into indefinite public beta. We’re not sure what we’re going to do with it yet, but for now we’re putting it down and letting you guys play with it. Like all our games, we will keep it released under the MIT license.
TWILIGHT SPARKLE’S SECRET SHIPFIC FOLDER: All bleed files and card box files will be released onto our website in the near future, as soon as we are able to coordinate such a task. Feel free to get them printed! We will also release all of our unfinished files as well so that you all can complete them if you’d like!
All other games will vanish into the ether of creative commons.
Please note: we will be releasing files as soon as we can, but given the holidays and how overworked we are, it may be some time. Thank you for your patience!
3: Are you willing to sell your company?
We’re willing to consider it, to the right bidder. If anyone has any serious offers, please contact us at horriblepeopleproductions@gmail.com.
4: Will you ever come back?
Who knows? We don’t have that kind of information at this time. We’re in the middle of tying up loose ends and making sure everything is accounted for. If we ever decide to do this again, we’ll let you know!
5: Will you do an interview/come to a convention/etc?
I’m sorry, but we’re very tired! We’re going to have to turn down requests like these for the foreseeable future. We know we’ve left a few requests hanging while we work through this; now you know what’s going on!
6: What will happen to your Patreon?
We will release BaBOC’s beta on there for its agreed-upon one week early access; we will maintain the Patreon long enough to contact those with $50 pledges so that they can get their Patreon pack mailed to them free of charge. But after that, it is going to be deleted forever. Thank you kindly to our absolutely generous donators: you guys made our forever.
~ * ~ * ~
It has been a great ride, you guys. Thank you so much for your ardent support and all the fun we’ve had! We’ll be getting the store up and running soon so that everyone can order cards until our remaining stock is all gone. (And don’t forget the holidays coming up … TSSSF might make a good present, perhaps!)

So long, and thanks for all the crackships,
