Hey all! Here are some of those proof pics I told you about. Plus I have a pretty cool way to keep your set together down towards the end of the post.
First, here is the proof of the dice. They are brighter than this, I just took this picture in my kitchen with bad lighting.
Here are the uncut sheets for the glory deck. I love how well the expanding radiance of the Glory shines through as the rank gets higher.
I LOVE GARBAGE! YOU LOVE GARBAGE!! WE ALL LOVE GARBAGE!!!!!!!!
This is the uncut card insert for the dice.
The outside cover of the Garbage & Glory Decks will showcased Sam's AWESOME art which we've used as the covers for the FreeRPGDay book, and the core book.
Finally, when looking at the dic, and the insert for the card box, I realized that you could actually store all 10 dice under the center divider, in the well. Here you'll see I've taken the divider out, put all the dice in, and then reinserted the insert back into the box! This means you can keep your G&G dice with your card decks in one handy place! This is probably how I'll store my set.
See? The insert goes in just fine!

Thank you everyone for taking the time to let us know issues with PDF delivery. We think we have the majority of the issues handled, but if there are any one-off issues, well handle them as they come. Once you get the chance to dive into the book, please consider leaving some reviews and ratings on DriveThruRPG. We'd really appreciate it. We always value your support and feedback.
Previously we mentioned the issue with the space in the card box, having more space than expected. The factory worked up a prototype of a slimmer, shallower box which looks perfectly acceptable, but we also received the physical proofs of the original box, card files, and box printing, and it actually looks a lot better than expected. It also allows for the possibility of sleeving both the Garbage Deck and Glory Deck to protect them for longevity. We are working to get some foam put in the box for those who may be concerned about the card safety. Our team liked providing you all the option to sleeve the cards, and we hope you do too.
We'll show some more photos of the proofs later this weekend, but at this point now ALL game elements are being manufactured!!! We're getting close!
Coming Soon!
We have some really exciting news. Coming later this month is a new sister project to one of our other family friendly games, Heckin' Good Doggos.
Like Heckin' Good Doggos, OMG Cats! is an all ages role-playing game where the players take on the roles of humankind’s furry friends: The CAT! It is a game of "Cats doin' Cat Stuff". The game is designed to work with Doggos, with similar card mechanics with flavorful twists leaning into the cat theme.
FOLLOW ALONG HERE!!!
We'll have pledge levels for PDF, Physical books, all-in to get all game materials, and a level where you can pledge to even get your cat illustrated by artist Mike Mumah to be included in the Cat Deck!
Resent the PDF to everyone

Hey everyone. Thank you for your patience with this issue with the PDF. We're not entirely sure why there were so many who didn't receive the PDF, and we've sent a bunch individually over the past couple of days. There are a few things that may have been at fault from an issue with the original export from BackerKit to a mass email issue for EU backers and the DTRPG tool. We decided to resend the PDF email from DriveThru again, just to cover all the bases and see if that helps. Thanks again!
Files have been sent to the printer!

Hey all! Just letting you know that the print files have been submitted to the printer. We'll keep everyone in the loop about this process, including any proofs or pics we get from the factory.
We just got a manufacturer blank proof of the cardbox and have sent it back for a correction. There was too much space in between the deck and the side of the box, and we want to limit the room for the cards to move. We're also making an adjustment to the insert, which shouldn't be too difficult. Below you'll see our desired comp, and then rough prototype which will be modified. We'll keep you in the loop as these move forward too.

Thank you all for your assistance and support. We received some great feedback on the review copy of the PDF and we set up the new PDF this morning.
IF YOU ALREADY DOWNLOADED THE FILE: DriveThruRPG should have sent you an email stating that the file had been updated. That will link you to the new PDF.
IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY DOWNLOADED THE FILE: The previous link we sent out will direct you to the updated file. You do not have to take any extra steps.
If you never received your email, you can reach out to us directly via private message, or you can post a comment on this update and we'll try to resend. For whatever reason, we've seen this sporadically, but a large number of those reporting no email are from the EU. Just double-check, and we'll make sure to get the PDF your way.
Thanks again!
