Project Update: Hey, so, we launched! 🚀 Here's what's next. (Distal)
Hey all! Yesterday we launched the campaign for Distal. This is my first-ever crowdfunding campaign, so all of the learning, and building, and doing has been exciting, fun, and intimidating at the same time!
There are a few things I want to get across up top.
- Thank you all for being a part of this, (and special thanks to those who showed up to launch last night!)
- There's a long road ahead I'll continue to post updates throughout the campaign.
- If you want a free art print, be sure to pledge a physical edition either today, or early-ish tomorrow, as it's only available in the first 48 hours.
If you missed the launch day stream, you can check out the VOD here.
Provided everything goes to plan, and we're funded at (at least) $18,000. Here's the roadmap I showed off on stream. You'll find some elaboration on what all that means in the launch stream video.
Before we can even really think too hard about this stuff though, we've got to fund the game first. We've got a good head start for our first foray into crowdfunding, but it's still a ways off from reaching our minimum to ship.
Remember, if the project doesn't fund, your money isn't even collected. So if you have the means financially, let's get this thing built! Thanks all!

Project Update: Almost a year of work lead to today. 🎉 (Distal)
The original Google Doc I started this project from has a creation date of May 12, 2023. It wasn't a game at that point, just a list of ideas I was kicking around for fun. Fast forward through almost a year of development, and we're on the cusp of launching a new d20 experience that you and your friends can play forever.
Today is launch day! At 7pm EDT, the campaign goes Live, and we'll be livestreaming it to celebrate. (Find your local time here.)
I have some pretty outsized aspirations for this project.
- I want Distal to be a solid foundation you can build on.
- I want third-party content creators to be free to share and sell their work, without their livelihood being threatened by the whims of major corporations, like Hasbro.
- Most of all, I want you all to feel good about the game your playing -- and that you feel connected to not only the world and your character, but the other real-life people at the table.
Â
I've put together a quick video talking about what you can do to be prepared for launch later today. If you haven't seen it already, click here to watch!
Here's the TL;DR.
There are a few things you can do to help Distal have a successful launch.
- Follow the project: You might have created a BackerKit account, but haven't followed the actual project yet.
- Engage with the project and other backers to push us to the 🔥trending🔥 page! Commenting on posts, liking posts, and replying to comments from other users counts toward this effect.
- Make a pledge! And don't worry: If the project doesn't fully fund, BackerKit doesn't collect your money.
Thank you all for being a part of this with me.

Project Update: Backstories, organizations, and playing the game before... playing the game. (Distal)

We've been looking forward to bringing you this sequel to the award-winning ASTER OF PAN, along with a brand new slipcase set with the sold-out original book, for quite some time! We'd love to hear how you found out about the campaign, and what you might be most looking forward to.
Have you read the first book already? If so, let us know what you most enjoyed about it, about the world Merwan created, about Merwan's work as an author/illustrator... anything you'd like to talk about! This is an open forum for you to speculate and comment on the World of Pan!
Enjoy!
Project Update: Almost Funded - 48 Hour Update! - EarlyBird Extended!
Hope everyone is having a fabulous time here!!! I have been trying to make this update all night but my two sons (4 and almost 2) have been sick, so Im just now able to post.
I made a video for anyone who wants to watch it, but to summarize:
- 1. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
- 2. Backerkit is Awesome!
- 3. We have EXTENDED the Early Bird discounts until Monday 11:11 AM EST to help backers coming over from Kickstarter who are having a hard time with pledging. We see you, and we empathize! We know learning a new platform can be challenging so we gave some extra breathing room!Â
- 4. Almost funded!!!! THANK you again!!!!
NEXT! The image that won for the sticker once we hit 500 backers (so close!!!!) is THE SUN! YAY!
AND NOW! Time to VOTE on the next month (JUNE) for our EXCLUSIVE Calandar!
For the very first time ever we will be offering an EXCLUSIVE (meaning you can only get this in the campaign) spread book featuring the art from this gorgeous Anniversary deck. We will have a spread from every tarot deck we have done, two wild card and Oracle spreads, all 4 elementals and all 4 witches of the seasons (special cards commissioned just for our anniversary deck). The book will be letter sized, and SPIRAL so it will lay flat.
