We're so excited to announce that ION Heart has crossed a huge £100k milestone! We're incredibly humbled by all your support for our lo-fi mech game and so glad that we've managed to inspire you all to take to the stars.

As part of this celebration we're going to be adding a reward to all pledges. Illustrative character sheets. These are a fancy graphic version of the existing ION Heart character sheet. These will be added digitally to all pledges and will feature as an upgrade for the Mech's Toolkit on the tearaway pad as well! Keep your eyes peeled for a future update where we'll be showing these off.

Mechs of all shapes and sizes 🤖
4 months ago – Wed, Jul 31, 2024 at 07:28:22 AM


Mechs in ION Heart come in all shapes and sizes. From agile mechs designed to speedily travel unnoticed between locations, to lumbering behemoths built to carry heavy loads. There is not limit to what mech technology has been adapted to in the Astral Union.


Mech technology has also been adapted by different inhabitants of the Astral Union to suit their personal needs. Whilst any pilot can bond with any mech some find it easier to pilot mechs which have been designed for them specifically. The Kirvae for example have a selection of 4 legged mechs with many adapted to amplify the pilot's psionic abilities.

Ready to build your own mech? Come join us in the Astral Union if you haven't already and grab your copy of ION Heart on Backerkit here. If you haven't tried the demo you can also get a copy through the Backerkit page! We'll be back with more updates soon.

A peek at some upgraded book concepts 🔥
4 months ago – Tue, Jul 30, 2024 at 07:02:13 AM



Ben has been working on some concepts for some of our book upgrades that you've all been busy unlocking with ION Heart's stretch goals! We were inspired by many gorgeous pieces of work by other publishers to be adventurous with our production on ION Heart and are really excited to make the book as stunning an artefact as possible.

This edge printing isn't the final design but shows what we're aiming for on the final books! If you haven't pledged for your copy yet don't miss out on your ticket for adventure amongst the stars. Pledge on Backerkit here.
