It's the final week of Zinetopia and I'm excited to finish this crowdfund strong! We are nearing the last stretch goal for the bonus supplement, Blightfall: Crowns and Swords at 6k USD. I keep having ideas for things to add to it, so this supplement keeps getting better and better. If you know someone who might be interested in Blightfall, please share it so we can make this stretch goal happen!
Dice and Diversions: I'll be at the Dice + Diversions convention in Atlanta, GA all weekend running Blightfall! If you're in the area and want to give it a go, now is your chance! Last night's game was awesome. The players crafted a post-apocalyptic land in the remnants of a magical World War 2-era society, their characters infected with blight via ultraviolet radiation. They discovered a colony of vampiric ants that worshipped and fed an invisible monster beneath a decrepit government building and took it to task. But poor character Bruce, after finally coming to terms with the only family he had left, lost all of his humanity and became something ... abominable.
YAAAAY!
Cross-Collab Achieved: Our cross-collab partner, The Deepest Dark, funded! That means that the bonuses for backing both projects go into effect. For Blightfall you'll get a new class called The Palace, representing all that is right and wrong with leadership. For The Deepest Dark, you'll get a solo-mode to delve into those dark and harrowing caves alone (that doesn't sound terrifying at all).
Printing: I'm excited to get this process started once the crowdfund completes and I have access to the funds. I've specifically chosen a reputable printer that can do high-quality work and add some flourishes to the physical, because I am a book sicko. Especially for backers, I want to make the book as special as it can be. I'm excited to share more details as I get things confirmed!
The Weird Place:
One of my favorite Youtube/RPG creators, The Weird Place, are hosting a Live Zine Showcase on Feb 25th at 12-8 PM EST and I'll be appearing sometime during the 8 PM slot. I'll share the link on the 25th, but I'm excited to watch as a viewer and participate as a creator! They've got some great guests lined-up (including our cross-collab partner, The Deepest Dark). Learn about some of the amazing games funding this month!
