Hey Folks!
Sorry for the radio silence since the GB. I know a lot of people start to feel a bit worried/apprehensive when the runner goes silent for long periods of time, but I've been hamster wheeling it in the background to make sure everything goes smoothly. With that said, I do have a bit of an update to share with you all:
For starters, the wonderful team at Hunger Work Studio was able to help us by literally creating the blurple color in physical form. This was something I wanted to do from the get go so that I had a physical sample of exactly the color I wanted for blurple that I could share with GMK and the collaborators to get as closer a color match to the vision as physically possible. Below is a quick photo I took (NOT COLOR CORRECTED) of the samples for blurple:
GMK used one of these samples to match the set to, and we got the first round of samples from them a little while back. We were all extremely happy with the results, and have approved the colors (woo!). Nebulant was kind enough to take a color corrected photo of the final colors that were approved, and here's that photo for you all:
That's about all I've got right now for updates. As I get more to share, I'll do my best to post in here, otherwise the best place for the most up to date information regarding Blurple is going to be over on Omnitype's update page at
