Project Update: Off to Editing!

Quick update! Though some playtesting is ongoing, the beta playtesting phase for Playing God has wrapped up. Playtesting was a valuable experience and fine-tuned virtually every part of the game. Most of them were small changes, but far and away the biggest one was how Worshipers was abstracted to the Devotion system. That made for faster gameplay with less number juggling. As a result, the most recent playtest went much smoother and the players could focus more on the roleplaying and story aspects.
 
All art pieces are complete, all game sheets are finished, and as of a few days ago, the entire game was sent to the editor. Unfortunately, the region where the editor lives has recently been hit by a natural disaster, so she's taking the time she needs to get back to normal life before starting in earnest. Once editing is wrapped up, it's off to layout, then to the printer!

Thanks for supporting this game! We can't wait to get it to you!

Project Update: PDF Add-Ons Delivered!

Just wanted to make you aware of a few things in this update.

PDF Add-Ons Delivered

If we've done it correctly, you should receive an email from Backerkit today to claim your digital downloads if you grabbed the Demiverse, Luncheons and Dragonflies, or Those Who Wander add-ons. We're still hard at work on the Playing God-specific rewards.

Preorder Store Is Live!

If you missed the campaign but still want to get in on Playing God, check out the post-campaign pledge page!

Reminder: Pledge Surveys

If you haven't filled out your pledge survey, please do! That allows us to get the right number of copies printed in a timely way and helps us prepare for shipping.

Why Haven't I Been Charged for Shipping?

You didn't miss it! We've opted to charge for shipping closer to fulfillment time.

Nautical Adventures!

If you're into D&D 5th edition, Somanyrobots has a new Kickstarter up and running! Songs of the Spellbound Sea is a 200+ page book, containing everything you need for thrilling adventures at sea. Check it out for:
  • Three new classes: the Troubadour, Swashbuckler, and Bloodrager!
  • Dozens of new subclasses!
  • A complete set of seafaring rules, for naval combat, ocean travel, and building your own floating stronghold at sea!
  • Hundreds of spells, including (but not limited to) the entire Spells That Don't Suck project!
  • New Species!
  • New Monsters!
  • Mini-settings, enchanting islands you can drop into an existing game for instant adventure!

Project Update: Complete Your Survey!

Good afternoon!

Pledge Surveys

First off, pledge surveys are live so go fill that out if you haven't already! That's the way we can order the correct number of copies and fulfill orders in a timely way when that time comes. You can also add add-ons if there's something you saw earlier that you've decided you still want.

More Art!

I got back in touch with our artist StickyHunter and commissioned more art from her. I think we'll get away with almost doubling our initial art budget, so look forward to that!

New Hires

Please welcome Luna Norwood and Poorna Mazumdar to the team! Luna is our graphic designer doing layout, and Poorna is our editor. They're both very skilled and accomplished, and we're so excited to have them involved! 

Playtesting

Beta playtesting is ongoing and has already been very valuable. I've got to hand it to playtesters for running the game through the gauntlet and helping ensure that it not only works but that it's more agile and fun.

That's it for now. Thanks for being a part of this! I can't wait until we're all creating (or destroying) our own worlds. Thanks very much!

Project Update: Final Days!

Wow, what a great campaign this has been!

We got off to a good start, we funded early, and we hit an achievement soon after. We're happy to say that we're definitely commissioning more art, not to mention the original deity and worlds sheets.

This project has been a year in the making but its roots began years and years ago. If you're like us, you still remember sitting down to read stories of Norse and Greek heroes and gods when you were a kid and then learning more about other pantheons as you grew and got unfettered access to library books, art history lessons, and more. It seemed only natural when you got into fantasy RPG settings to invent your own mythological beings. Now it's not just prep. It's another facet of gaming!

Thank you to all you backers! For small, indie creators like us, we literally couldn't do this without your support! Now let's see how much farther we can go!
