Happy Saturday y'all! Jon here with a quick weekend update.
Fully Funded
As of Thursday afternoon, we are fully funded! Bri and I are deeply grateful for y'alls enthusiastic support at the top of the campaign. We're really excited to send Longsword, Glock, Bat, Taser to print soon, and we're already climbing steadily towards our first stretch goal!
If we cruise over the 4.5k mark before the end of the campaign, we'll be able to create enamel pin designs of the titular four weapons for y'all to order!
Adventure Prompt - The League of Evil Exes
Alright, with our housekeeping out of the way, let's dive into the other adventure prompt sneak peak y'all voted on this week! This time around we're looking at the "Evil Exes Abound" prompt, which is an homage to Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, one of the pieces of media this game is inspired by.
As a reminder, each adventure prompt includes:
A high-level theme, like "One of your friends started dating someone with a league of evil exes"
A short description of that prompts expected contents
The genre or mashup for that adventure prompt
A short list of hazards that might fit well with that prompt
6 Scene objective recommendations like "Best the Skate Wizard"
A short description of each scene's expected contents
The League of Evil Exes
This adventure prompt was a lot of fun for me to write, as Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is an old favorite film/comic of mine. Funnily enough, we hadn't actually included it in the base game! It was our editor, Will, who suggested we include this homage since the game takes some inspiration from the punk rock, video-game style universe that series is set in. This adventure features a lot more explicit fighting than some of our other ones do, but given there's a league of evil ex-partners involved, it felt appropriate.
I selected encounters with evil exes from the film based on personal favorite scenes, but as I mentioned in our previous update, these adventure prompts are easily modified to suit your taste and your table—they're a jumping off point.
That's all, Folks!
That's it for today! Thanks again to everyone who's helped catapult us over the finish line this week! Bri and I are psyched to be celebrating Pride with y'all, and we're excited to see where the rest of the campaign takes us this month. I'll check in again here when we tip over a stretch goal or I've got some news to share! Until then:
