Kickstarter is THE thing these days for RPG project funding & support. If you have a good product that might be difficult to fund at the quality level you want, Kickstarter give you the tools to do it.
I got Frog God's email at 5:28 PM this afternoon, and when I clicked the link it was already supported at over $6k. It is now 8:30 PM as I write this, and it's over $
"Holy shit!" does not come close to telling the story here.
Kickstarter and Indigogo have breathed new life into our hobby. ACKS, LotFP Adventures, Dwimmermount, Barrowmaze, Myth & Magic, C&C Classic Monsters, OGRE - the list does not stop.
It is, as they say, a beautiful time to be a part of this. :)
Oh, and it can be expensive too. Ouch!
Wow. It is over $22k now. I will be surprised if they are not funded in the first day.
ReplyDeletefunding is 25K - should be a breeze by midnite at this rate ;)

ReplyDeleteFunded now. Very curious about the breakdown between S&W and Pathfinder orders.
ReplyDeleteThere will be at least 1 S&W order (and about a zillion Pathfinder).
ReplyDeleteIt looks like they still have copies of Tome of Horrors Complete in S&W versions while the Pathfinder ones sold out the first day. I really want to see what Rappan Athuk is going to look like as a high level S&W adventure.
If you can, go for the $250 pledge because the bonus modules start kicking in. One for the pledge, then another if they hit $40K and another at $60K. I don't think those levels are going to be problems. They need to look at the OGRE kickstarter and start figuring out more bonuses for mor bucks.
i said the same on G+. Frog God has lightning in a bottle right now. should be interesting to see how this plays out.
