Thanks for the reply! itch.io notifies me, in the same way that Kickstarter does not - and this way I could prove I was logged in and the fault wasn't on my end or my email's end at least! I appreciate that you've sent the codes out last year. At the time my husband was extremely unwell and we lost quite a bit of time before I realised around Feb-March we hadn't had them. I was wondering what to do when the newly updated Worst Generation pdf dropped and I'm so glad to finally have a copy after all! However any other codes that I should have, I sadly don't. I was hoping it might be possible given you can prove my backer ID now to get the smaller ones re-sent to me so I don't miss anything, but I'm more than happy to be patient and await the finalised art and finished copy first to avoid too much hassle and get as many as I can through the global means. I just didn't want to keep not messaging / informing you in case there are some I won't be able to access that way. eg. the single playbooks!

I'm sorry to hear about your husband, I hope he's doing better!
I sadly cannot re-send codes to individual people. They're not assigned to an account, they're assigned in the system to e-mails which then you have to claim. We, Five Points, don't know what e-mails those codes are assigned to. That's something Itch has on their end. We're looking for ways to avoid/work around this for our next Kickstarter because as you can imagine it's been a real, excuse the language but we're just as frustrated as you all are if not more, fucking pain in our ass. So at this time we just can't send you the missing codes for The Midnight Generation. We will be re-sending the WAR Book codes however probably next week some time so as not to spam everyone's inboxes.
As mentioned, we didn't hit All Stars during the campaign. We really wanted to, we got halfway there but the Kickstarter was always to pay for art and graphic design and that money has long been spent. Even if we could reallocate funds from other projects to finish it, we made it clear during and post-campaign that we didn't hit it and it wasn't something we'd be able to put out as part of the campaign. We realize there was some confusion with how it was listed in the Tier rewards and that led to some thinking it was coming out even though we didn't get it hit with the stretch goal.
The only individual Playbook you should have is the Liminal, we've not sent any of the individual ones to our Backers. We might do a collected Just the Playbooks for backers however. We're still in discussion.
Completely understandable what a pain it's been! I promise, I did try my best to find the codes, then and now - dredged every bit of my spam folder as well as the bin but either it literally never came or auto-deleted in the meanwhile back then.
I'm very glad to have had the Worst Generation code through given this, and am looking forward to the WAR Book. The All Stars I hadn't realised was a failed goal - don't worry about that then! Sorry, it HAS been a while, I only mentioned it because it's still listed in my rewards list on KS, which is probably a good part of the confusion on others' parts as well. I currently don't have the Midnight Generation or the Liminal, however, and am glad it's confirmed I should have. The Just the Playbooks idea is really grand and would solve the latter!
I would appreciate it if the Midnight Generation code could be re-sent when all the art is finished up, then. Is that what you mean by what's planned? If it updates in a standard way, I won't automatically get it without a code, but if you re-sent the codes to all the way your team just did for Worst Gen, it'd solve this completely for me :)
Otherwise if there were some way I could buy it with a one-off discount to effectively still have the reward that would be amazing. Of course I should have prodded much earlier too, and ultimately it's at least still buyable... Sorry for harping on, it's just the MG was the whole reason I pledged - I'm a huge Persona fan. But I'm down with waiting, just worried if it never comes at all.
