Definitely go support those projects fever.
Dream, Nexus is part of Zemo, 2023, Zine, Quest, whatever the
zine February business, your you're part of or supporting but
I've definitely learned your first but We're doing his email
thing tonight it all before. Yeah we're just going to talk
about some of our some of the projects that popped up that we
both fell in love with and and just go through until we feel
like stopping and we you know there's a bunch of projects.
We're going to talk about what some other people throughout the
month and then we're probably going to do a recap towards the
end of the month. With but this is our first kind
of just like hey here's some here's our projects we love
right now. So yeah.
So this is that I'm gonna kick over to the screen right now and
get started with with project what I'm going to say.
If I had to pick one, the project that I am absolutely.
The most excited for is unlike the, the Best so game that I own
probably unquestionably, this is the demon Lords expansion for 12
years. Manik Force threatens the known
world. Can you find all six sigils and
buying the Demon Lord once and for all so.
So stoked, so beyond stoked. We've talked to Max a bunch of
times on the show. We've talked about 12 years we
talked about playing 12 years maybe eventually.
Well you guys can't see it all my Shelf here, but I have some
really amazing 12-year stuff here.
Some like one of ones, if you know, Max at all and they need
the project that they do. There's a hand crafts, just
about everything. There's always hardbacks that
are handcraft individuals, seems that our one-on-one, and there's
always like each of the projects so far, have for the most part,
there's always a one of one tear.
Oh, did you get the one-on-ones here?
This time. Oh, you fucking better believe I
did. Oh my god.
Oh yeah. I think yours for as I know I
hid in the bathroom at work and literally was just like
refreshing on my phone. So do you need a magic book of
gold boxes that box? That is your that one backer?
I'm the one I'm back in number 11 macaroni.
I got the one. I'm I can't.
Oh, I'm so excited. I got though.
I did. I get the one of?
I don't not sure if I got the one-on-one of a bit of
Illumination. Somebody got that one too.
Anyway, we love the fun. Don't think you were I think you
were late on that one. You didn't get that one.
I believe it. Don't I know whatever I did get
I got a unique version I don't know if I got the one of one
version, it was one of like the higher tiers obviously but I'll
throw every dollar. I have it Max in any of the
project they make amazing. It has amazing. 12 years is
fantastic and a Demon Lord expansion.
It's not just a Lich King, you're fighting now it's the
Demon Lord. So moving forward on this, first
of all, black and red. I mean beautiful.
I mean chemical beautiful maximum project you know you're
like no. Yep, it looks fucking amazing.
Beautiful Max Moon. So on top of that, art from
Justine Jones in this one, like just looking yes!
Look how horrifying, listen! You see this thing in an alley?
You're leaving. It's stunning.
She did all the art for. It's one of my favorite covers
of all time. I'm stalling because I'm
blanking on what it's called but it's the DNA.
Going to Guerra. Oh I see module.
It is all of the blood king so we know we've talked about that
before. It's got the very like purple
pink blue Vibe. It's got like the vampires and
stuff hurts amazing. I'm pretty positive.
She does like, magic, the Gathering art?
She did the cover. She did a bunch of dark inside.
It's fucking gorgeous. So, 12 years is a solo or more
GM less role-playing game brought to you through.
Ponding basically every 12 years, the Lich King comes out
and you have to Adventure to try to defeat him and have 12 more
years of peace. And in this one, instead very
fancy 10, you know God's hands and get ten years piece before
attending on his back. And this one is said, you were
trying to put away the Demon Lord so you're not seeking a
crown. Down.
You're looking for the sigils to put it away.
You find all six engines, you perform the banishing ritual and
if you are as strong as you are, foolish to attempt to slay the
Demon Lord out, right? So this has some new stuff, it's
got to archetypes the Sorcerer And The Hunter.
Yes. So a new dungeon type called the
hellmouth new event encounters. New Magic Snow Monsters.
New friends to meet on the way because that's what it's all
about. Yeah, I mean, It's not about the
goal, it's the friends, you make along the way, exactly.
It is obviously the new BB EG and it's supposed to be 30 to 40
pages there is in standard max fashion.
There are multiple versions multiple covers.
There's the black and red. There is the red and black and
it's a standard Riza. Graph Edition is a red cover
stock Rose. Graph printed on black, the
demonics deluxe edition. Is a black cover stock printed
on red, there's a hermetic hardbound Edition which is a
hardbound hardcover with split binding, red spine, Black cover
and screen printed which I definitely still.
I got to get one of those somehow and then there is the
one of one unique gold-leafed addition a single unique copy
hand bound with 24 karat. Gold leaf cover and guilt page
edges. You fuck better fucking believe.
I got that shit. I'm not sure.
Right away, I not shocked that you got that.
So we need. So the magic clew, the cover
looks absolutely amazing. It's got the red, the red like
Edge. But then, let's black and red on
the front, the ornate loop with like the black and red, 12 years
box set. There's a Cthulhu Logan's tape
much like with Fairyland, there's actually a tape that
comes with it and then the guilts the gold get one.
And I don't know if you saw. I mean, obviously you back to
this, I don't know if you saw that.
There's a an add-on for a hardcover.
Our deluxe edition of 12 years. So I snagged that shit up
because we do have I'm short. So I already have a hardcover 12
years. So yeah.
Well, I have a weekly scroll addition.
We do have a black and gold weekly scroll to of to addition
that Max made for us handmade hand bound absolutely stunning.
But that's an option here to. So I definitely got like you
know I got the gold, get one. I definitely It in the regular
hardcover. One and I got to figure out how
I can also get the the hardcover of the demon expansion to but it
will be mine and also the campaign journals are fantastic.
I mean it's just it's just a great project.
You know, we love, we love Max. Max is a super awesome person.
The art from Justine Jones looks amazing illustrations.
From any Weber who did a bunch of stuff on a bit civilizations
to this is, you know, project probably going to talk about the
most or peruse through some of the other ones.
But this one is just what does one?
I mean, like it, I personally like Matt so much if I lived
closer to them. I'd be like, dude, we should
hang out sometime, I'll drop all the time.
Bill also like an outside of that does stuff that they make
is so good. I mean, both from a gameplay
perspective, 12 years is fun. It's a Fun Dungeon Crawl.
It's a cool way to just like hang out and Hampshire New Haven
in like you know, get a coffee and play 12 year and then Like
the quality of the book that they put out is just, I mean my
hardcover, copy of 12 years is my favorite thing.
Like, it's on my bookshelf like display, because it's so cool.
Yeah, it's so fucking good. Like, first of all, as you said,
the game is good. But the amount of Just love that
Max puts into the stuff that he makes by hand, like, just so
much of it. I mean, I'm gonna, I'm gonna
actually, let's just so, let's turn off some background blur
and I'm actually just going to. Let's see if I can actually tilt
this up enough that people can see it above me, but I see it.
I can see it peeking out. You can see, you can see little
Pikachu. Belle Pikachu here.
No, I'm not going to mess with my camera much.
Um, But because it's going to take forever to put it back but
the this it's just, it's just gorgeous.
It's, it's it's perfect everything that they do is
amazing. And the fact that we got those
two of to hardbacks with literally says, they'll weekly
scroll Edition inside is is just so cool.
I like as a date, as a designer, Max is one of my favorite of all
time. And as a person Mack Lyon for
people that Max night, kind of talk about this whenever you Max
and I were talking last night. Really think when their schedule
calms down a little bit I'm gonna see if I can commissioned
them to make a pocket edition of maybe even like the Demon Lord
Edition. Yeah.
Just like a little so I can care because II so I have that
doesn't matter, I don't know. Tablet makes it really easy to
play 12 years as I travel around, the be cool to have a
pocket edition because like the hardcover weekly scroll and I
almost never die. I don't want to take it out
because it's so beautiful and perfect and it's got the
distress Pages. Oh it's so good.
Yeah. Lee.
I have definitely already reached out and talk to Max
about a pocket edition so maybe if they maybe if they ever get
signed between all their amazing projects they can make it.
Yeah. Whenever the schedule frees.
Yeah when they when they stop dropping absolute fucking fire.
So anyway this project is is its funded it, but it's not funded
enough. It's got 17 days to go.
If you haven't backed it, go fucking back it.
Get the original 12 years. You're not going to be
disappointed. It is a It is a solo or solo
with a friend who was also kind of solo game but it is
adventuring is not journaling. It's so it's so good.
It doesn't. It's a dungeon hack scroll.
So it's not like a solo generally game, you are dungeon
crawling hex crawling like you would any other like OS our game
and there are procedural rules that cover every single
circumstance you could possibly roll.
It's such a well crafted experience.
If you have not played, it Buck, you know saying, If you've not
played it, you should pick it up maximum games.com, I believe,
right? Yep.
It's and it's almost always hung out yeah-yeah back to
Kickstarter, get the hardback, you know, give give Max money
and get an awesome game for it. So, so, yeah.
So that is the 12 years Demon, Lord expansion for Max Moon.
You definitely 100% have to go back that.
Yeah. After, if you're listening to us
your now contractually obligated to go back this project.
So we're not friends anymore. Yep.
Not a single one of you. So demon Lords expansion for 12
years on Kickstarter, that's what you gotta find for it.
So the next one, this is a project that you've talked about
a bunch of wanton. You talk about Lord sworn Lords
warranty. I just clicked out of it too.
So which one is a GM list. TT RPG about a band of religious
soldiers heading back home. After a war of gods, that they
lose. Yeah, so I'm the wrong window
over. I'm so sorry y'all.
I swear, I'm a professional the rest of the time.
There we go. Yeah.
So this is a 1 to 4 player GM list.
TC R BG where you take on the role of three Lord sworn
soldiers who swore themselves to a now dead God in an apocalyptic
battle between all the guns with a god dad.
World turned upside down. A handful of survivors are
making their Trek home. It's a caltrops core base game,
right? So it's a d-force, you know, the
coolest die sighs. If I do sighs palter, no one
asked your opinion. Typically the most painful.
What's up the best? The best thing?
I listen, I really enjoy couch of quartz.
It's a really cool like, you know, light system, regardless
of how cool it is. The best thing about it is It's
called culture of core. Like, I love it and it's just
like, no, I would for sure. Yeah.
That one who is like that naming convention, like oh, you're a
genius because that sounds fucking sick.
That's also like good imagery, you know.
But, yeah. So you play the story of
returning home, you, you craft a backstory, you play The Journey
or I guess you. Sorry, you craft a backstory.
You create your company because you, you play as three
characters. Each one person is 3,
Characters, you play the journey home and then you write the
epilogue and you're rolling these die.
You're really nice dice for events that happen.
And it's like a hidden rule. So you get to assign one died to
you and the other two to other characters.
And yeah, it just looks really interesting.
I really just like the whole like, yeah, your got your God is
dead and now you get to journey home after losing your War.
Tell the story of your journey home like, That's a heavy
Journey, right? That seems like Rife with
potential for a really good story and man I fuck with a
really good story. Yeah, yeah, I mean and again,
couch of core is a super light system, I feel like anything
that uses it is really intent on having the system get out of the
way the game, you know. Yeah.
And I love that. I want to tell stories.
No, but yeah, this is by Marin's musings.
Which I am not the most familiar.
But is Marin's musings hio. That's M, AR re n.
SM U SI + GS H Io if you want to check out their other stuff.
But yeah, I'm really, I'm really stoked to get this and and play
through and yeah, there's I Soul gives kind of go back and forth
for me but this one definitely seems like the kind of Soul game
where I'm like oh yeah I definitely want would like to go
through this like this sounds cool.
Now you know what's also the best thing about this project?
But when we talk about Kickstarter, I was Canadian.
It's Canadian. We love the Canadian dollar.
Yep, it's we love that. Ours is generally slightly worth
a little bit more but, you know, it's always made up for in
shipping so at least it always kind of Lee Stevens out.
So yeah. So that is Lord sworn.
We have a couple projects. We have actually a bunch of
projects that aren't on Kickstarter that.
We want to talk about. This is the next one.
One of the other one. Set that I'm very excited for.
So we were talking about doing like a top three and I think
both of us had fever dream Nexus in our top three.
So if you, if you want to hear about fever dream Nexus, please
listen to the the previous episode with Sofia, we talked
about it at length, but the other one that for both of us
was like, always going to be right at the top.
What is this one right here? It is.
Sweet Revenge from one of our favorite creators.
Adam vast. Yeah.
Yeah, it's a it's an ambassador project so you know we're going
to be about it. It's it is, it is what it is.
We love Adam, they're a fantastic person.
So this is called a Sweet Revenge.
So three cheers for Sweet. Revenge of tabletop role-playing
games in by Adam vas where you crawl through the circles, of
hell demolishing, any sorry, soul in your way to face down
the devil, It's like Louis. Yeah.
Well, I mean, yeah, it looks amazing and much like, a lot of
the projects, you know, maybe because they're in a fucking
awesome band. They are.
Is a music theme to this, or at least a, a an inspiration.
It's three. Cheers for Sweet.
Revenge is My Chemical Romance. It is obviously for, are you
kids out there that maybe didn't get to grow up with him CR?
But I think it actually ever stop being popular.
So I think I think I mean everything post by pray baby, so
How beautiful is that cover? Great, my future cover?
If you're listening in podcast land, a highly recommend you go
check out all of the art for these projects because it looks
absolutely amazing. But it's, I mean, there is like,
a crown of thorns. All of the, the little, the
little swoopy dupes on the writing, like, everything about
this cover. Screams of, this is gave that I
want more than yeah. Like this is a hardcore like my
vibe game like black white red, you know I actually Leary, very
reminiscent Vibe of Kingdoms from Sophia's wessely, but right
on the cover, it says, I'm just the worst kind of guy.
I'd argue with what you might find, and for the last night, I
lie, could I lie with you, so very heavy.
Obviously, I'm sorry bottoms, I know.
Yeah, yeah, it seems, he are that mean, that's a lyric from
the, from the thing. So, go to hell, the best place
to actually get this and I love that, Adam always puts.
Badass website titles with their drops but it's literally go to
hell. Dot IO, will take you right here
and this project little bit different because their self
funding it through their website, which is a World Champ
games that I owe. So it's a little bit different.
We'll get to that in just a second, but go to hell.
You may be dead but you're not quite done.
Living Journey, downward through Spirals and circles of hell
laying waste any demonic pieces to engine away, use the method,
you died to inform you. Your inventory and abilities on
your violent Quest. You give into your darkest
quality. Your sins are your stats seven
of the deadliest each with unique abilities that you can
leverage to an actor. Will the more corrupted your
soul gets by the forces of Hell. The stronger, you become this
easy yet, unique system, combines familiar aspects of
games. Like down we go and bullet.
Obviously, we just ate a down, we go Creator, cut.
So we know how many's straightforward and straight
line, that system is. And then I really like System a
lot. It was so good.
It was really really good. I definitely will be playing
that face off against a trove of Fallen Angels.
Giants infernal beast and more on your way to confront the
devil and demand. Your final wish be entered if
you don't succumb to your darkest traits along the way.
So as we said, this funding is a little bit different.
It's going to be by units. Sold will determine stretch
goals. So, At 100 units, the project is
funded at 300. There will be a second
additional health circle and at 500, they'll be an embroidered
patch. So I would love that embroidered
patch. So orderly since this is
definitely since this isn't on Kickstarter or crowdfunder or
whatever, this is gonna be a lot of like direct traffic link
directly to it. There's not going to be a whole
lot of like like algorithm pushing things this way.
So if you are listening to this and you back this project, you
definitely need to share this project with other.
Well, so you can bring Sweet Revenge to Life by joining the
effort. It's by unisol not dollar amount
raised. Because when you back the
project, you can back at multiple tiers, there is the $15
standard. There is, oh, I see the
drop-down, what stream doesn't that's interesting.
A $20 support tear and a ten dollar discounted tear a lot of
things on World Champ, are that way.
You can buy it standard or you there's like a discounted or
support tear for it. If you have the money or if you
don't have the money, which is a great thing to Adam does, but
you definitely should go back this.
It looks like it's almost completely written.
The game design is already underway and nearly print ready.
As soon as February ends, the campaign is over, they're going
to count how many ziens to make any additional content needs to
be written and is expected to be in your hands by April.
Oh so pretty quick. Turnaround on the Fulfillment
which is fantastic. And everything else really is,
you know, top top top, top notch.
So you should definitely back this project and you should
definitely tell like a bunch of other people back their project.
It looks really, really dope. And I would love to see it.
Get as much love as it deserves, which honestly, it looks fucking
amazing. So, if that is Sweet Revenge
from Adam of ass, whoo. Well there is a game we've
already talked about that is already funded but we definitely
want to bring it up since we are talking about games that we love
and that is the new the bloom Adventure from govern archives
and Josh Kaminski of liminal horror.
Hell yeah. So not going to talk too much
about this because we did go in depth about the bloom itself on
a previous episode. So you just I want to go check
out that episode. It's our little horror episode,
I think, maybe two or three ago and you'll get more chat about
that. I believe they were also and I
coo games that would games pitch.
So you definitely want to go check that out.
It is funded right now. It's funding and is doing pretty
well on its funding which is really great to see that it just
getting a little bit better about that funding.
Yeah. But they had a 1200 dollar goal
for 1900s raised and this was just to get a digital Edition
out. The art and everything like
that, and a print run will happen later.
But obviously, this is going to happen.
Super excited for that. They were also on the Lost, pay
obviously right here on the stream.
You see that? And lost Bay Eco is definitely
one of the homies, so you want to go check out that episode as
well. Great great podcast.
Yep. And but that is, that's from
Goblin archives. And Josh dumanskiy doing the
bloom. Great people had them on the
show and chat with them. Super, super cool people and
lament horror is Awesome. It was a great one to go
through. So highly recommend go checking
out the bloom so you get the digital prior to it being print
released, what else we got going on here?
Oh, another project that we got to talk to the crater is a
little bit about And now that it's funding, and it's a quick
two week project is low res, Futures?
Yeah. Yeah, this is with Max Lander
and Aaron King, Aaron motherfucking King, great
episode. I was thinking that, yeah, you
can't not say it. Listen it would no matter how
much you talk, no matter how much they talk about.
Bad branding. I think it's great branding.
Um, solo race Futures. The one of the coolest things
about this is it is a flip book. I'm not sure exactly what it's
called. I think it's got a French name
for it, but basically, Really one have the book is one game
and one half. The book is the other game, so
it is millenarian cyber witchcraft, augmented reality,
death games from 1990 X, and this ties back to Adam as well.
Because this is all based on Cyber metal 2012, So fantastic.
So the project isn't quite to its funding goal yet.
So definitely want to push this and get in and get it out there,
but it looks absolutely amazing. It combines two games, the first
one is called hand baskets. It is a One-Shot friendly, 225
player, GM game. It's digitally enhanced cyber
which demon summoning Battle Royale game from Max, Maxwell
Lander. Players try to maximize your
reputation, take out the competition and stay alive.
But death isn't the end. Those who fall are re sleeved
into strange and entertaining new bodies to continue the
entertainment. Sound.
I mean sounds clucking yes, a 67, absolutely sick, so fucking
sick but they have some cool. They have like some cool
augmented reality. So yeah, with the the book in
PDF will be accompanied by an app that will reveal cheat codes
commentaries and secrets. I just think that's cool.
I also just like that to flip back, I liked it's a two-sided
book. Yeah.
It's super unique project especially with the AR, you
know, Like, yeah, yeah. I do have makes I really am
interested in what comes out. I really like him bows.
Yeah, right. Next, we'll enter very cool.
And then Aaron King. Obviously, we just, you know, we
just Rollin world is really cool and we had a great time talking
to him. So what and then their game as
part of this since Han baskets is Max's is is in a mirror
brightly. Oh yeah I love than it.
Just flows out of you and just like That's really good and and
to get an explanation of why it is called an emir.
Brightly shifting check out the episode but it is game of
millenarian magical Rebellion. You wake up from the drudgery of
everyday life in 1990 X and fight for the best feature, you
can imagine inspired by the Invisibles, The Matrix and Mage.
The Awakening players will fight the power with tech hex and sex.
And you can click on the link here.
Yeah, there are character creation rules that are already
listed. But so, the format of the
project backers can get separate PDFs of each game or they can
get a physical copy print it, it's called tet tet Besh.
It's got like a little upside down V situation on the he's
which I'm sure means something but it doesn't mean anything to
me. So I believe that is yeah it's
when they are flipped in the middle which is such a fucking
Cool, cool. I imagine that's a that's a pain
in the butt to print but so cool.
And the text is is pretty much wrapped.
The book will be 48 to 64 Pages. As you talk about the AR and it
looks super fucking cool. Yeah I like to hit their adding
an AR app it's like okay because it's the future my tell ya this
is a future so it has a pretty short funding when you have only
two weeks and it's just a little bit past halfway.
So this is definitely a project that looks amazing but could
definitely use some love to get it.
Over the over the hump and get it funded by the end.
So you should definitely go back it and if you backed a PDF pump
up and get that heart back. Yeah.
Come on like you know what? We because the yeah the tears
are digital. Only a soft cover Edition and
hardcover edition. If add-ons were allowed, I
wanted to get the hard cover and the paperback but they were not
so so I was only able to get the hardcover.
I'll have to get this off cover later, but this is definitely
Project that that we love. That looks fucking awesome by
creators that are all so fucking awesome.
So low res. Futures is a project.
You definitely want to check out on Kickstarter from an King and
Max Lander. So, looks dope, go get it.
Um, what else? We're kind of cruising here?
Doing a good job. All right.
So a butterfly dies, this is one absolutely, absolutely have to
talk about. So, Is a primal Cuisine inspired
by Mexican myth and the Mexican muralist movement.
So Primal Quest you're going to get his game of stone and
sorcery fucking awesome. We had the exact model I think I
Cristo Christian Sorel but Christians rose on because when
we did I went to the EF con over the summer for exalted funerals
like funeral camp and I got to do a play test with Diego of
Primal Quest and And Sarah was there and Christians felt is a
fucking awesome. So since you weren't able to
make it Christian came on and we did a deep dive into proquest.
Super fucking cool game, really excited for it.
And this project though is put out by Marcus urano also known
as spicy tuna RPG Juna. Yeah great fucking guy does
awesome. Awesome stuff.
Yeah primarily has been part of the mothership community.
So this is as far as I know one of the first projects to Branch
out into Nan Mothership and it is Primal Quest.
And this looks fucking awesome. Yeah.
After like, honestly after constant downpour and I'm stoked
for the remaster and after nights of Lazarus I'm like, oh
yeah, Marco put something up. I'm gonna back it, don't ya.
Yeah, we got definitely hired this point to some people.
Yeah, definitely got to that point, they're definitely on the
list of like, I don't even need to read it.
I backed it already. I'll go back.
Yeah, I like, is that something? I remember them talking to us
about it previously. And I was like, oh yeah, this is
that. And I just backed it.
To be honest, I didn't really even go through the page of that
deeply. I was like, yeah, fuck it
doesn't. Yeah, doesn't matter.
We got it. We know there's a patch.
I'm good stick. Yeah, so yeah.
So so this is project. So the land is blessed, The
oyamel Forest of Mitchell. Hawken is at the peak of a
52-year long, huh? Swing cycle tribes Thrive as a
colossal, Monarch soars across the land rejuvenating, the
ecosystem. Cycle resets in four days, the
fire giant will ignite the great husk doing the Monarch setting
fire to the skies and raising the land.
The chaos is followed by decade-long food, shortages and
struggles. Tradition promises the burning
butterfly, Miracle is essential for the sustainability of
Michoacan. The suffering is a small price
to reap the benefits of the peak years.
So basically you get 52 years of awesome, and then everything
goes to absolute shit for a decade, right?
Right. That's rough.
I mean easy to think about world.
Now, wouldn't you trade 10, bad years?
For 52 years of prosperous lives.
I said it's rough. Not I just said it's a thing,
so, you know, it's actually interesting, there's a lot of
theories about. Obviously the fires are getting
worse because Global chain and you know, global climate change.
Stuff like that because it exists.
You dumb fuck. That's not real.
That's the liberal media game. You try to be home again.
Yeah I'm already vegan but um but It fires a really
rejuvenative for the forest and stuff like that because it can
burn away old growth and allow more things to prosper.
Anyway anyway so in a butterfly dies players are nomads
traveling through the oyamel forests, will you Ally with the
smolder cult and fulfill the burning butterfly Miracle or
where they help those who want to break their tradition and all
the great hustling Monarch to survive.
So it's inspired by Mexican myth.
The artwork is heavily inspired by Jose.
Clemente Orozco smear all Man of Fire And The Wider Mexican
muralist. Aunt and is compatible with the
proquest TT RPG from Diego. Nogueira the patch looks dope.
It's a moth on a background with some Mexican motifs.
It's a it's a Mitchell Walkin map compass rose, which is what
the patch is. It was also, you know, part of
the game as well and what are you get inside this evening?
It is a hex crawl, placed in the forested and Volcanic mountain
side of prehistoric and mix and mythical Mitchell walk in Mexico
developed for promo code. So you get a hex crawl, you get
30, Random Encounters 9 full pages that are inter tribal
factions and colossal, ancient ritual World progression 13 in
PCS. A dungeon dive into a volcanic
mountain and a dungeon delve inside an alien structure.
You know you had to throw something a little bit
Mothership. Ian there.
That's very Primal quest to those that prom Quest has this
like the potential for you. Finding some weird future Tech
type shit even though it's a, yeah, Stone and sorcery.
I love Future Past is what I call it and I don't know what
else to call it probably has a better name.
Like yeah. Yeah.
Something like even like Gene Wolfe like with like book the
new sun in there. It's like this weird, it feels
very medieval but then some of your like oh that's definitely a
future Tech, you know, so it's a cool, it's cool Vibe.
So this is our project. Yeah, I'm very much like the
genre as well. I like just in general I kind of
anachronistic stuff like when your adventuring and then you
come across some like Alien future attacker, weird shit.
I like not being able to tell exactly what time period
actually is. I completely agree.
Yeah, it's very cool. Fun fact, the wheel time is also
a great example of a I guess post-apocalyptic but that's take
place in the future somewhere. Yeah, I'm a I'm a fan a fan.
Well, I started young as a fan and then had to finish it.
I wish Robert. Jordan, first of all, having a
dad for the last book in 2nd, Ed eating concept of how to write
female characters Bob. But I wish my greatest wish is
that he knew how to write female characters because I wouldn't
finish that series of him. If I didn't know it, but it
really sucks that they literally break it down.
Two men are dumb, women are nags.
And like that's that's and he's better than he really is.
We're on a tangent. But yeah.
Anyway, so Top of the zine and everything.
If you go for the whole bundle, you get the listen, I'm
butchering this stuff, and I apologize the coke is Oka.
I yeah, Coco shoka Coke Ashoka micro setting pamphlet to make.
Yeah. So it expands Beyond the oml
Forest to explore, the Mexican wetlands, and includes two micro
dungeons with unique encounters. So, and Carries I learned that
Lisette sick, like, like I feel like Eco said something about
this. A while ago kind of around.
This is like people putting their own like backgrounds
experiences and culture like on their game.
Like he could talk about the time like trying to strip some
of that away so you could put your own stuff on.
It is kind of the Ops I'm super stoked to see like I don't
fucking know anything about this pathology and like this will be
a really cool life. I love mythology.
So this would be really cool. Deep dive into like another
cultures, like Mythos, you know? Yeah, I'm super, super excited
for this. I mean again, We talk about
anything were code. Does we back?
Yeah, that's because we know that Mark is only going to drop
fucking fire. So, yeah, you know, this is
definitely one you want to back a butterfly dies and it's also
cool to see Primal Quest, getting more content.
Totally, I'm looking forward to more Primal Quest if I have it
and I liked it, I haven't played it yet.
But, you know, I think maybe this will be the first thing I
run with my group of Primal Quest because they're interested
in playing it for sure. Yeah.
Yeah, absolutely. We got a couple more we're going
to talk about here and then some previews for the future, but one
of the ones that we're going to talk about is actually on crowd
funder crowdfunders, a different crowd, funding platform.
And I got, to be honest, I really like it.
Like I do, I really do a deep into it.
So yeah. The layout room, It's pretty.
It's pretty clean. Like it reminds me a little bit
of like the backer kit crowdfunding layout, it's
definitely not Kickstarter. We all we've heard is a game.
Found is not great for TT RPGs. I would highly recommend at
least from what we've heard staying away from that.
But everything I've heard from people that I put projects on
crowdfunder, which is cro wdf in.
Dr. Is basically crowdfunder - e at the end, it has been good and
there's a More navigation resources I found where like you
know if you hit Zine Quest button on on Kickstarter you're
going to find every fucking ding Quest project ever not just like
the most recent shit not great navigation tools.
This one actually will if it's in like a bundle of stuff will
take you directly to all of them and projects can be linked
together. So there was a pin project.
I was looking at where it was 20 different projects but all 20
were linked into one giant like pool that that if the total
projects each reach certain levels would give more to all of
the project. So it's a really neat way to do
that. So this project is called
project Echo, it is a solo time travel game, it is on a
crowdfunder, this is from Elliot Davis.
It says Time Marches On well at least it used to.
So you work for the mysterious organization known only, as the
agency tasked with tracking a time-consuming entity throughout
an entire year project. Go is a game of time travel and
Cosmic horror, it's a solo journaling game with a Twist
time travel across the pages of a planar writing.
It and making up the dates based on prompts as you go ultimately,
creating an artifact of your travels through time you will
discover the anomalies significant signifying.
The decay of time Evidence of the entity's, destruction and
influence and pieces of yourself.
You had forgotten existed and don't forget your coin, one
flip, maybe the last line of defense between you and the
fracturing of time itself, and in the end, will you destroy the
entity or and you dare question agency?
Can you find yourself? So with the project you get the
Zenith self and then there is a planner as well.
If you go with the print version, there's a bundle.
So and it's pretty reasonable. So the Gene itself, plus a
planner. Plus a PDF is only $45 print PDF
is $20. If you just want the zine
without the planner and then the PDF by itself is only 10 bucks
which is a pretty pretty pretty decent pricing for this kind of
project. So gameplay wise as you Journey
Through Time, you discover and make use of several different
devices which are modes of time travel represented by Unique
Mechanics. So there's dice playing cards,
tarot cards coins. The stuff.
So it's a really interesting unique take on solo games.
I do just going down to the end for the inspiration wise.
So there's the portal at Hill house.
There's thousand-year-old vampire, which you've talked
about a bunch anamnesis by Samantha Lee, which is a great
Terror based game Rune from Spencer.
Campbell. You know, we love us.
Some Spencer Campbell from Hannah Shaffer and Evan Roland
The Wretched by Chris bassitt, which honestly if you make us
Hello journaling game, you've probably been influenced by The
Wretched and tether by Adam bologna, which is a really
interesting game. I don't, I mean I have it.
I don't I think I sent you did, I send you a copy of that?
Yes yeah, yeah, yeah. And I just got to say dope
fulfillment. Partners writing contagion
Peregrine Coast, press, for any of you out there who are looking
for game like stores reading at a tea is definitely one of those
like they're Canadian, which means they're a little bit.
Like, there's that, that the book.
Every Wednesday. Yeah, yeah.
The books are a little bit less expensive based on the USD.
If you're like us, do geo fucking Centric fox plus, you
know, the little bit extra shipping.
So it evens out a rat. Even Teddy's a fantastic fucking
store. You should definitely go check
them out, really cool that they're part of the Fulfillment
process, but the game looks really neat.
You know, we've talked a little bit about our, our our love and
not hate but just like love and and not as much love.
Of with solo journaling games. Yes, in the fact that, you know,
I like, I'd I'm not arrive, not a creative writer, like I'm not,
I had fun playing thousand-year-old Vampire.
I've had fun. So journaling on games, when I
was kind of really in the mood for it, I'm going to have to be
in the mood for it. And I'm frankly, I'm not much of
a creative writer, do it either. So I'm not in the mood for it
but like it's really cool style of game, you know?
Yeah, we're basically too dumb for this kind of I mean I'm
going to get this game but I'm too dumb to I'm forgetting it
though. It looks it, like it just looks
really cool. It's a really fucking awesome
project. And a lot of solo games have
like a unique mechanic and I mean like The Wretched really
brought in you know the the Jenga Tower you know enemies
systems like that are taro based.
I really love that there's a lot there, seven different devices
and gameplay that can take you back and forth Through Time, And
I feel like there's going to be a really cool way that that's
going to like mess with you in like no way that you can imagine
like messing with time with mess with you.
So it looks like a really, really fantastic project.
I am super excited for it at least to get it and read it.
And again, you know this, if I'm gonna do a solo role playing
game, this is the kind of game that I want to do something that
really is gonna be a unique. Interesting experience that I
can go. Damn, this is fun.
Especially with good. Which is, which is what I think.
My dumb brain needs a lot more with with games like this, so it
looks dope. It's got 14 days left, it's
definitely funded. It had a 2.5 k gold, Scott 3 .5
K. That doesn't mean you shouldn't
continue to back it, but that is Project.
Echo on crowdfunder Project Ecco, you definitely want to
check that one out. Um two more here, we got candle
three from fantasy audio magazine, ring the bell, The
Original osr Adventure Gaming tape.
Zyne is back for round three flexing, all new pc classes,
magic items, music and more. So I back this for Kendall to I
got the full bundle above me. I got the candle tapes and
actually sitting here right next to me is a lot of the the rest
of the the the stuff from candle to, which is really fucking
cool. It's an awesome project.
I like that. They continue to make it and I
like that each of it comes with the tape.
It's a really cool that the osr scene has really pushed.
That like cassette tapes, as a thing and I like that you get
stuff in the tape, you know what I mean?
Like the the inserts. There's always cool stuff in
that and the art that you can do on, just a little, on a tape.
It's a cool interesting addition.
It's a cool piece of media to add on two projects.
So it's it definitely went hand in hand with these kind of os
RNs are seen. In a good way to bring something
extra to the table. So this is the third installment
of the original Adventure Gaming tape seen.
So this year, they proudly and proudly.
Welcome all, who seek Adventure championship and above all else
glory to participate in the revelry and Majesty of the
Festival of Champions. So there's a whole piece of art
here which is like a pamphlet like Shouldn't citizens.
It's like it's like what am I trying to say here?
What is? It's a good piece of parchment
with like an invitation on it. Liar.
But yeah, flyer sure. Like a like a, like, an
old-school flyer like minimization.
Oh yeah. There's a poster.
Flyer kind of thing. Yeah, so you received a royal
invitation to the festival grounds of the queen.
Her righteousness lady sub Munda to join in the merriment and
debauchery of the Great Festival of Champions, bonfires Feast
songs, dancing magic Solutions, fireworks, estranged, Can
musings a boastful old Warriors and of course the bottomless
supply of Bacchus Lake wine, all of this and more to anyone and
everyone but especially to Heroes whose very names are
household Legend. So it's actually a festival
ground comes with a park map and everything, and you get to kind
of fuck around in this Championship from, from Phoenix,
auto magazine and descender. So, they're certainly not a
Could underground sewer crawl and I'll certainly not one of
those complete with rival factions of goblin, carnies and
guard patrols. So this one's a little bit is
honestly, that alone is just that's the done on there.
I'm so old, I really know. That's it.
Yeah, so it's it's for it's written for osce.
There's some art from Hodag RPG, which is absolutely fantastic.
Other art style, definitely got a nice OS, our style.
So it's 60 pages of seek to beat Xena play radio us Our content
and features, perfect. Bound a 5, it's full color.
It's got a park map. It's got a bookmark character
sheet. I did back a previous project
they had where they put up bookmark character sheets,
right? I'm so those are pretty cool.
There are some cool ladies like the grappler?
Yeah, The Peddler. And then some interesting
content here. The birdbath Helm, birds that
drink the water from the symbol comply with three requests.
So long as it would not result in their death and you in speak
and understand birds. So it's just a cool scene of
some really interesting content this one themed around this
championship of Heroes and whatnot.
So it's as I said I backed the previous ones, there were
definitely worth it. I highly recommend backing this
one. The tape looks awesome and
there's even like a lineup of Of artists and stuff to go with it.
So it's just a cool project. I'm excited to get it.
You can get the previous tapes and ziens from the sender and
from Fannie Saudi magazine and I highly recommend grabbing those
two but this is this is Kendall three.
Get it won't spill stuff. Oh yeah and last but not least.
Yeah the last one we're going to talk about.
So beyond the gaping maw delve. Into the body of a Dying God to
discover, what ails? It is a mini setting.
An adventure for Mark board, so we don't talk about Mark Borg as
much on the podcast anymore just because they're so goddamn much
of it. So honestly, like I've seen
enough, like, but I do really like this project.
It is oh you know what, the other one that we really wanted
to talk about? I do want to talk about that
one. So I'll bring it up beyond the
giving malls in a venture module and many settings.
Dad, were you delve into the body of a Dying?
God to discover, what ails it written for everyone's favorite.
Do metal fantasy Merc Borg. So it's got art from Johan or
and from Strega wolf Vandenberg and dead people but they
recently completed the light coma.
Yeah but this one looks really cool.
One of the things I really like about this not only does of
Johann Norse. Awesome art in it but look at
look at this page with the team and stuff is a great page.
Age. Yeah.
But all the other thing, too, that I really enjoy about this
project and one of the knocks that we have about, a lot of
work for content is, if you read the record book, there's a lot
of cool stylized pages, but most of it is fucking readable, not
every fucking page, has to be completely stylized out of its
fucking ass. And when you look at this
project, a lot of the pages, aren't a lot of pages, have, are
leaning more to the readable side of Merck board.
So, when you look at the spreads here with the teeth, it's white
text on a but it's black text on a white background.
When you go to the next one, there's an art page here.
And then it's black text on a white background.
So I really like that. It looks like it is kind of like
diving more into the readable side of Mark borders, are the
over, oversee lies gives more that Chris Eichorn kind of
variant on on were projects, but this one looks pretty dope.
It's as I said, diving into the body of a dead.
God, the project itself, if you read the adventure, there is
plaque from the teeth of a dead, God.
To maintain a community. And then the PCS need to descend
into a crater reach, its Center someone to God and delve to
figure out why the plaque from this Dead's God's teeth has
stopped like being a thing. So like that's fucking cool.
Like I really I really love like the concept of using not even a
parts of a God but literally like the gross stuff that grows
on parts of a God and you get to delve inside of God itself to to
To look at that. So That is the beyond the gaping
mall for firm work. Borg looks neat.
There's one other one that I wanted to talk about and then it
completely skipped my mind and now, I'm completely blanking.
You sent me the link to it earlier.
And let me I suggest that one you we've both talked about it.
Oh yes, here it is. Oh yes, so I did.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This one's cool.
So this is called a mu on Eldridge extermination.
So we got a bunch of projects in the bodies of Dead.
God's is what this like the third one we're talking about
today. So this is a playfully McCobb
system neutral Adventure, inside the infested corpse of an
Eldridge. God, this is from, yeah, dire
Quest. So really cool.
Again, you're going inside the body of a God, I think it called
it. Self is it Grim Circle?
What did it what? It it, Grim, Grim wimzie.
I can't remember the name that they use.
Maybe as I read, it will go through it but you my nigga.
Yeah, that's a good nickname. Like a like a great.
So this is a system neutral Adventure having lured you into
it. Small ammu asks, for help
Exterminating a vile infestation, that is taken over
its rotting heart. Should you succeed a safe exit
and Eldridge? Is yours, The Reluctant or
unsuccessful, however, are reduced primordial ooze.
So it's system neutral. You can play it in one to two
sessions. It takes four to five hours
total. I'll do that in to, it's fully
Illustrated and the adventure itself, has you stumbling inside
the rotting Behemoth of this, God, basically they are.
Yeah. The art is fucking fantastic.
I love this. Like again, this Whimsy dark
Punk, like really and stuff, so, it's got multiple.
Adventure Pass. There's a corpse the mall that
gullet, and the hearts all different paths that you can
take along the way. And you can find mutants in the
Swarm like rot flies and Graz and maggots in the book.
There's an adventure, there's locations.
There's interesting mechanics, there's monsters and the
Eldritch loot at the end. And and yeah, so the physical
scenes only $20 or the deluxe version is 30.
You know, I went to Lux on this, I would talk to me and I'm just
like it's 30 bucks for all the dog stuff y'all get the fucking
blog and But you get a digital PDF, you get paper tokens, you
get Adventure trackers, you get all the digital stretch goals,
you get a physical copy signed and Illustrated on the inside of
the cover, by the Creator. You know, we will, you know, we
love us some signs stuff when it's side and and having a
doodle on the inside of the cover and all for 30 bucks.
Absolutely fucking worth it. Super excited for this project.
Yeah. So that was one.
I definitely did not want to forget about.
This is one that as soon as I saw the art style, I was like,
you fucking God. Me and as soon as I heard like
the grimsey dark win, whatever they went with, its it look so
fucking cool. So absolutely ammu and Elgin
extermination and that's that's pretty much our project.
Our project recap at least for now of of what we wanted to talk
about. So a couple other projects we
are that made our list but we're not going to talk about right
now because we're going to talk about them later.
First, we have coming up Sunday, actually a quick preview, what
we got Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. I'm so glad you did that.
That's how you exactly where my brain went and you're amazing.
We're gonna be talking Tangled blessings.
Mmm. Oh, we're going to be talking
tangle blessings with Cassie moth when very excited to talk
to her. Yeah, absolutely.
Super cool. Award-winning designer does a
lot of like solo game content. Tangle blessings is like a dark
Academia setting which looks really, really neat the bundle
for it looks cool. We're not going to get too much
into it but very excited to talk to Cassie.
I watch her stream of bunch, she's just a genuinely, like a
cool, like nice genuine person with some really cool ideas for
game design, so really excited to see her on Sunday.
Gosh, I got to bring up the calendar to see.
All the other people were talking to this.
My now we've got a lot going. Got big month ahead for the
weekly scroll. You know, we really do.
I realized I think I send you this message.
I'm streaming, I think 678 there on some whole other shit right
now. So, You know we'll see where it
goes but one of the other projects to which it definitely
made like absolutely love but we're not going to talk about
goes. We're going to talk about it.
Next week is the electrum dude. I'm so fucking stoked.
You locked room archive issue to.
I'm SuperDuper stoked. I'm a huge fan of the setting of
Oran and then I owe even when it came out.
I thought the idea of Thai think it's tight and pour it is named
the city but it's on the original map in the in issue 1,
I was like, oh, it looks pretty cool.
Because that's fucking statue and shit.
So yeah I'm fucking I'm about this one.
This is a fucking Hunter approved one, you know.
Yeah, hardcore I mean first of all, I mean Boven, like derf, I
can't, I can't describe just how much I love derf because it's
one of those things where it's like, it's it's it's, I'm not
saying it's like a it's not it's a dragon game kind of in the
sense that there's like a medieval ish kind of vibe to it,
sort of shit, whatever. But the way that combat Works in
it is so Simple and smart but different like the provisions
are. I think they call it Supply.
Like Durfee such a fucking amazing game.
So we've already gone over derf and then do what I say.
Yeah, but we're actually going to get a chance to have a meal
Boven on the show next Friday it's going to be any in Pacific.
Very fucking excited for that and afterwards we're going to
flip through the election archive.
The issue one but we're going to talk all things like term
archive to excited. Have a meal on the show and
after that, That. We are going to have, we're
talking about the bastardized classics with John David of Sig
civets sanctum. And man, our ramp, Matt APA, say
that. All right, up with Matt Morris,
Matt, and John are dropping some absolute fucking fire for
bastards from Mike Anderson. It's so cool.
I'm really stoked. It's a bunch of like refresh has
of like classic adventures and I'm, I'm fucking stoked.
And the art looks great. Two styles of the covers are
great. And and yeah the the so they're
doing basically Volta Doom, which is like a like a like a
tumult. I think it's a.
Is it to my whores kind of, right?
I do think it's too much whores. Yeah yeah.
So they're turning it into a funnel Adventure.
So they're doing basically a funnel Adventure, an adventure,
like a hex crawl. They're doing basically every
style of thing that you can get they're doing with.
Fucking bastards like ambassadors, you know, we love
Micah, we're gonna be running more Micah.
I mean, we got betrayed, we got another episode of the Cherokee
and swamp planned for Monday, with Micah coming on and running
that stuff again. So definitely kind of run a
bastards group, you know, like I like I play bastards regularly.
So yeah, this, this is less than this is great for me the
bastardized classics when they announced that I was like, oh,
yeah, did you see vaulted? Umm dropped already.
Yeah, I have it. Yeah.
That's another one we're having on the show is John and Matt
super excited for that. I have a bunch of stuff from at
haven't really got to talk to them.
I mean, they were super into Mouse Ritter for a long time,
which we should definitely over at some point.
So they a lot of great content from AstroTurf and now jumped on
bastards which is really cool to see and not only them.
But I mean it's encouraging other people to do more bastard
stuff. You know, between John and Matt
perplexing ruins, put out some bastard stuff.
There's just more content coming out and it's really great and
then too, Rap out, the end of the month.
We're going to be talking to the homeboy, Astro Lich.
Boo. Okay.
There we go. There's the movie and tell
Lindsay for a wrap-up of Merck. Borg it is a Farewell to Arms
Redux. It's basically World War Merc
Borg the projects already. Blown the fuck up.
Obviously because it looks amazing.
But it is it is a it is a Merc board in all Mark boards
probably here on the show and really excited to have them back
on the show, though. Master Lich is definitely good
friend. Good friend of the show.
Some great content for Merck Borg and Cyborg so excited to to
get them on and chat about that and chat about honestly because
it's going to be towards the end of the project.
At that point to really have kind of like a like a wrap-up of
the project perspectives you know or yeah.
I mean because it's it looks absolutely amazing.
There's obviously a bunch of Johann Arden and fantastic.
So that's what that's what we got coming up.
So we got Cassie Mothman coming up this Sunday.
We got a meal Bova next Friday, the following Sunday after that
John Davidson, Matt Morris, and the Sunday.
After that, were talking to ask her, let you travel.

Potentially another Zemo wrap up or maybe like a another zemo's
Iman thing towards the end of the month, again, we'll see.
But that is it. That is our Zemo 2023 preview
top whatever, you know, favorite projects for right now and more
stuff don't come out that we don't even know about yet.

didn't really get too deep into Zemo but, you know, with the
when we had Tony descend on the show, one of our last episode we
did talk about GMO because they have kind of come on board.
