Can You See Them? New Ending PDF Released
28 days ago – Thu, Oct 24, 2024 at 05:07:54 PM

Hey all!

After a year of ups and downs I've finally got a release for you: Can You See Them with the altered ending. This extends the original book by about 20 pages and includes a new "more heroic" ending for the Can You See Them? horror scenario. 

Thanks all for your feedback on this. And sorry it took so long. However, if I've learned one thing from this campaign, sometimes "perfect" is better than "fast." And while I can't brag it's perfect, I can at least say it's something I spent a good deal of time working on.

You can expect the rest of the content hopefully this week. In the meantime, you've got the full Can You See Them? Horror RPG scenario to run for Halloween.

Talk to you soon!

Renewed Timeline (PDFs in October, some goods by EOY, others may be affected by dock worker's strike)
about 2 months ago – Tue, Oct 01, 2024 at 11:53:10 AM

Hey everyone!

Hope you had a great September, but it's now time for a spooky month. As such, I feel I owe you an update on the timeline. Here's what you can expect:

Rough timeline:

1) Expect to get the final bits of content this month, namely CYST's finalized version with the new ending, The Arcade, and Xanthophobia Censored. You should already have the Horror Core and Diner. If not, use the email below and we'll get you straightened out.

2) Other than the book printing, everything else is ready to ship. Book printing should start later this month.

3) Just a heads-up, but the current dock worker's strike will likely affect our timeline, so I'm not sure when things will ship. I'll try to find a local solution for book printing. Fortunately, Horror Core Rulebook and The Diner are already printed, and I've got all the VHSes on hand. The Arcade will also be printed stateside, so that won't require shipping. I'll also print the VHS version of CYST domestically, along with all the other VHS versions. I expect a 1 month turn around on those and then they'll ship from my store in Norman, OK.

4) Worst case scenario... CYST hardcover and Xanthophobia will have to wait until the dock union strike ends and probably beyond the holidays. The alternative is to print them in the US, but with a few less bells and whistles. This will be costly since these are the "meat" of the product, so I'll have to do a bit of research. Since domestic shipping is relatively cheap thanks to USPS' media mail, I might just do everything in two batches—the domestic printed stuff and add-ons first, then CYST and Xanth when they arrive in the US. It'll cost me more, but it'll ensure that you get some goodies in your hands.

5) My pal, Rick, the core artist on this project and I have been working on some other horror stuff. I'll try to tack those on as consolation prizes for all the delays.

Why so late?

It's been a shit show of a year. Bad health, production delays on other projects, legal stuff (not on this, but in other areas), and now supply chain issues have made what should have been a slam dunk a bit of a bother. Either way, I'm still gung-ho on this.

But I must say... I think it's kinda fun getting it all done in October.

Need help?

If you need something, don't hesitate to hit up Bree at [email protected] and we'll get you sorted.

Take care!

September Update
3 months ago – Tue, Sep 03, 2024 at 07:16:42 AM

Hey friends!

Hope everyone's having an awesome "oh, crap, it's time to go back to work..." post-Labor Day day. Just swinging in with a quick update.

First, if you didn't know, I'm just now getting over a pretty nasty ailment that lasted for about two months. It's put... *everything* behind, unfortunately. But I'm happy to say that I'm through the worst of it and back in the saddle. 

As soon as I get an updated timeline, I'll get you all updated on that. In the meantime, I should be releasing PDFs of the couple of things that are hanging out there and will likely offer up a few more fun things in the meantime to keep you satiated while you wait. 

Anyways, thanks as always for your support. When you're an old, unhealthy bastard like me, you take for granted how much your health plays into getting stuff done. Either way, I hope to get this all knocked out the park so we can get this stuff in your hands.

Take care!

August Update
3 months ago – Tue, Aug 13, 2024 at 11:41:08 AM

Hey friends,

Hope you're having a good summer. Just wanted to drop in and give a quick update for all of you. I've had a few medical problems come up over the last couple months. Although I'm waiting on some results from the doc, things are getting back in order.

The books are getting finished up hopefully this month and sent out in PDF form to all of you and then to our overseas printers. Currently, all the other stretch-goal add-ons are complete and ready to go as are the VHS cases which are being held at our other office.

In the meantime, if you have any issues don't hesitate to reach out to Bree at [email protected]

Thanks again!

PS: My horror movie picks for this year so far are Maxxxine and Late Night with the Devil.
