BackerKit surveys are coming!
Hello!
We're getting ready to send BackerKit surveys! See below for more information about the survey.
Soon, you’ll receive an email from us with a special link to your Backer...
Wow, over $10,000 raised, and we are rapidly approaching $11,000! We are so grateful for the support and love you've shown Badger + Coyote! We didn't think we would reach this large of a goal, and so we wanted to include something special as a thank you:
A 5x7 letterpress Badger + Coyote art print by Salt and Paper Press will be included with every physical reward tier!
We have spent the last week working with Salt and Paper Press to make this print a reality, and with final approvals, they will start the process of printing them by hand on Ophelia, their 1963 Vandercook Universal I letterpress. The art will be printed on thick 110# Crane Lettra cotton paper, with a deep impression that only letterpress can provide. We will share photos as soon as the first prints come off the press!
Last week, the campaign saw a remarkable influx of backers, and we are so happy to have all of you here. Welcome in!
And there are a slew of smaller updates as well:
Assembly is Beginning!
We have already started stamping all the carrying bags for the Starter Kits with the Badger + Coyote logo! Because we are aiming for a quick turn around between the campaign end and getting the game to all of you, we have ordered some of the supplies, so we can to start work on assembly.
A Playlist for Badger + Coyote!
Working with Sam Leigh, we've curated a Badger + Coyote playlist! It is an upbeat, lighthearted and adventurous playlist we think you'll love. You can find it on Spotify and YouTube.
Updated Layout with Expanded Scenes!
We probably should have announced this a lot sooner, but when we hit our funding goal, we went back to the book and added 4 more pages to the main book! This was so we could add more artwork and scenes to Badger + Coyote and their Daring Adventures! Here's an example of the Story Twists's spread from the book.
Do you have any adventures you're already planning to embark on as the dynamic duo? Share your adventures with the community!
If you're unsure of how to write an adventure hook, we've made a fill in the blank adlib for you. Fill it out to share the exciting adventures your Badger and Coyote can go on:

But when they look closer, they find out that [___something or someone____] is [____making it worse than they originally thought (how?)_____]!

Our Next Campaign is Ramping Up: The Substratum Protocol
Launches March 28th: Sign up for the Substratum Protocol Today!
This one looks quite a bit different from Badger + Coyote!
Substratum Protocol is our entry into the Deep Delving Mystery genre like Subnautica and In Other Waters.
In classic Pandion-style, this is a solo+ game about scientists, not soldiers, delving into the depths of the earth, to learn all they can about the interdimensional portal tearing apart our world, and ultimately putting a stop to it. It can be played as a solo, duet, or multiplayer game.
Meet the DSPRT MK I Exosuit
What are the other features of Substratum Protocol?
Purpose-built for solo and multiplayer mysteries
Unique dice and card draw resolution mechanics
Take special actions whose outcomes chain together
Collect beaten cards during Skill Checks to power your suit's abilities
A self-contained story, with unlimited possibilities and outcomes
Quickly build unique and interesting characters at the table
36 unique clues to discover, 36 questions to answer
10 sectors to explore, each one stranger than the last
120 events and encounters to surprise and stump your players.
Build the Last Hypothesis: When you've learned all you can, and are ready to try and stop the portal, work with your other scientists to pour over your knowledge of the portal and construct your Last Hypothesis to enact your plan. Will it be enough?
We are excited to announce that all rewards and preorders have now been fulfilled! The final packages were dropped off to the postal service yesterday, and you should have received a shipping notification. If you haven't, please reach out!
Later in 2024, we will be releasing a completely redesigned Banda's Grove: The Quantum Convergence of Campgrounds - our cozy scifi TTRPG that mixes campgrounds from alien worlds from across the universe in a strange and mysterious quantum realm. We're working on a detailed setting and campaign guide for it as well.
Banda's Grove will be our first showing of a new major system! I believe the Grove System will be the most robust diceless, token-based TTRPG game to date that includes a unique resolution mechanic, magic, combat, city building, character leveling, and more. It's a huge experiment for us that we're both nervous and excited about.
The Grove System has 2 additional games in early development as well to test how well it can build games in other genres: Penumbra, a modern eldritch folk horror game inspired by The Secret World, and Trawlers: a cold northern sea adventuring game inspired by Dredge. However, we do not currently have a release date for them.
If you like two player games (and you're on this list, so I hope you do!) then we have a treat for you! One of our favorite two player games is Tether by Adam Bafoni, and we have worked with Adam to create a dedicated journal for this horror letter writing game.
The Tether Journal is a player aid to collect the opening world building, your card draws, and, most importantly, all your journal entries in one place. At the end, you'll have a fantastic artifact of your play through of Tether, capturing the terrifying journey you and a friend went on.
Bundled in a custom printed envelope - Use it to protect the journal as you pass it back and forth during play!
The journal is purpose built for playing Tether, including pages dedicated to the setup of the game.
