Project Update: The Final Capstone... Is Complete!!!

Two thousand, nine hundred, and forty-four percent.

As I write this, that's how much Perfect Draw! has surpassed its original funding goal by.
When Nora first showed me her rough prototype of this TTRPG, five years and many mechanics ago, I could have never expected that it would end up like this.

When we first launched, Nora said something along the lines of "seven thousand dollars is probably a pipe dream, but I guess we'll see". I thought "I feel like we can expect ten thousand, but anything beyond there is unlikely".

And now, here we are. Over one thousand two hundred of you looked at our passion project and thought "hey, I want this to be real and successful"... and now... well, I guess it is! We've had the honor to work with other creators in the TTRPG, board game, and video creation spheres that before we could have only dreamed of - we've seen the radiant creativity of many of you in the community discord already. Now, with only 50 hours left in the crowdfunding campaign, we've achieved every stretch goal we could have expected to and more. 

Our hand is empty, our graveyard exiled, and at this point we've no sleeves to pull further tricks from. This is the last stretch goal we've got, but it's far from our last update here.

I, personally, cannot wait to show you all the full book, and I hope it'll have been worth all the kindness and support you've shown us. Thank you so, so much.

Without further ado, here's the final playbook.

Unlocked: The Crew!



Identical strangers. A band of meddling kids. Shadowy corporate figures, gathered around a desk-table. Those two villains who seem to never be apart.

Simulating all these character archetypes and more is what The Crew playbook aims to simulate, with unique abilities such as multiple mini-decks and stat spreads. It's the weirdest and most complicated playbook we've set out to do yet, but we've already got plenty of plans down for it!

Like all the other bonuses thus far, The Crew will be available in the Booster Pack expansion. Maybe a good thing, too, because the page space it'd demand would probably be a thorn in the side of the core book. Speaking of the Booster Pack, let's see what it's planned to contain thus far!
  • 5 new playbooks - the Mentor, Other Me, Lovestruck, Facade, and Crew
  • 24 new premade cards with various new example keywords and stranger effects
  • 10 new encounters to flesh out the world of Shuffle City and beyond even further
  • 3 new alternate gameplay formats to bring a new style to your card battles
The Perfect Draw Booster Pack Expansion will be releasing in PDF form sometime after the full book is properly released; if you're a backer of the crowdfund, you'll be the first to get it for free!

And that's not even getting into all the other things we've been able to put into the works from your support, like guest encounters, VTT assets, a whole card creation app, and more... looking back on it all just takes my breath away.

From the both of us at Double Summon Games, thank you once more. We'll see you at the game tables.
