Can You See Them? A Scenario Book for the Horror RPG.

Hey all!

Things are moving right along with the campaign! CYST is wrapped up and about to be handed over to John for proofing today. Once that's done, it's off to the printers to get samples made for the hardcover and softcover versions. I'll have to reformat it for the VHS copy (it's a 7.5" x 4.15" book instead of the A5 of the other two), so that'll probably take a few days. But at least the information is nice and tight!

I woke up this morning to Rick dropping more artwork in the box for The Arcade, our last two challengers.



He's now in the process of creating portraits for the characters, mostly teens. The one non-teen is a character borrowed from The Diner. If you've read the Diner, I won't spoil it for you. But I'm interested to hear your guesses!

I'm attaching a poll to this update to name the "Space Invader Crab" for the Arcade (backers only!). I've decided to name "Evil Tron Guy" Warner, as a callback to the actor who played the part in the original movie, David Warner.

Catch ya later,

Hey all,

The Arcade is this campaign's first major stretch goal, and it's already underway.

I'm waiting for Rick to finish up the art for it—monsters, portraits, etc.—and then I'll start banging out the story. Fortunately, I've already got a cool map from our friend Tom Cartos that we'll be using:



Plus, Rick's got the next couple of "Arcade characters but AWFUL" made for us, too. If you want to see those... you'll need to be a backer!

Let's just say that one is possible based on a very famous plumber, and the other is a famous two-legged, armless... aardvark... thing. That hops on cubes. Some of y'all might be too young to remember the latter, but let's just say his name begins with a Q-.

Talk to you soon!

Hey all!

A quick update today: just letting you know that we got our pro-printed VHS covers in today and tested them out. They fit perfectly and look sharp as heck. Makes me miss going to video stores and staring at horror movies.

Check 'em out:



Talk to you all soon!

Hey everyone!

Happy cold day. It's so cold today that I had to close my store and cancel my Call of Cthulhu session. Womp womp.

But there is some good news to be had. I landed on the next official stretch goal:



I got the idea while reading through a list of rare phobias and thought it would be cool. From there, it snowballed into a plot idea for a scenario. It's a bit strange, yeah, but should be fun. Plus, it'll be a tongue-in-cheek shoutout to some of my favorite creators, the Stockholm Kartell, creators of MorkBorg.

If you haven't already grabbed your VHS Collector's Boxed set of The Arcade, make sure you do now, as we've already sold through 1/3 of them in the first 24 hours. While it's slowed down a bit (ahhh, the ol' middle-campaign lull), we'll probably get a late push toward the end that'll gobble them up.

Expect to see more art for both The Arcade and this new idea soon.

And I guess I need to find some more VHS cases, eh?

Talk to you soon!

Hey folks!

Thanks again for being loyal backers! With Rick creating "arcade characters with their serial numbers filed off", I figure I need some goofy names for them. I've generated six random names for our fake "round, yellow ghost-eater" man and the barrel-tossing gorilla. Pick the ones you like best!

One of the polls is attached to this update. The other is posted under the community section.

You can only vote if you're a backer. So back!
