Hello Good Doggos,

Hello Good Doggos,

As we come to the final days of June, it's time for our regular month end status update. As I've noted before, these will show incremental steps as the project moves along the progress path, but eventually we'll get to reward distribution stages and all the fun can begin.

I do have one bit of fun to share before our regular review. Onyx Path recently held their annual Virtual Gaming Convention and devoted a panel to the Realms of Pugmire. For info on what's going on with the game and projects in the works, you can check it out below!

May '23 Regular Monthly Check In
11 months ago – Tue, May 30, 2023 at 07:57:45 AM

Hello Good Doggos,

We're at the very start of the post-campaign phase, the beginning of the end, as it were. I'll continue to post updates at the end of each month, tracking the progress of the various projects we helped fund, until the very last piece is delivered to backers. There's a lot of steps and a lot of work behind the scenes, so most of these updates won't be very flashy, but it's important that communication is consistent throughout the process.

So, nothing too exciting this month, but let's get it all on the page...

REWARDS STILL PENDING

Our Stretch Goal powered jumpstart has now joined our main reward in post-editing development, so some progress there!

NOW ON KICKSTARTER

Help fund the new core rulebook for They Came From the RPG and vote on new chapters and new content!

They Came from the RPG Anthology! is a little different than the previous entries in this series, and the clue’s in the title. This newest They Came From… isn’t another single genre piece, but a compilation of multiple genres, spanning the big screen, the small screen, the stage, and possibly even more besides! It also serves as the Core Rulebook for the They Came From game line, with the streamlined ruleset as well as they Storypath Ultra system.

Why “possibly”? Well, when our Kickstarter campaign launches, one of the first things you’ll likely read about is the polls we’ll be running throughout its duration. Every Monday another poll, and every poll adding a new genre to the book. They Came from the RPG Anthology! already includes:

  • They Came from Cowboy’s Gulch! (Westerns)
  • They Came from the Mean Streets! (Noir)
  • They Came from Bridgton Rectory! (Costume Dramas)
  • They Came from the Interstellar Starship! (Space Opera)
  • They Came from the Bard’s Quill! (Shakespearean Plays)

But we’ll be adding a further four chapters (at least) to this book from a selection of options you get to vote on!

That’s not all though. They Came From the RPG Anthology! provides two new system offerings for our loyal audiences:

  • The Quick Play System is a condensed, streamlined, and – as the name implies – quick system you can use for all your games of They Came From! So if you find the current system too complex for your games, you’ll enjoy this slimline version of character creation and the accompanying rules.
  • The Storypath Ultra System is the updated version of our existing Storypath System present in games such as They Came from Beneath the Sea!, Trinity Continuum, Scion, and Dystopia Rising: Evolution, and They Came From the RPG Anthology! is the first place you’ll find it in print! So if you’re interested in the future of Storypath, this is the campaign to back.

As always we’ll have a wide range of backer levels and an active comment section, so come on and join in!

April '23 Regular Monthly Check In
about 1 year ago – Thu, Apr 27, 2023 at 11:59:25 AM

Hello Good Doggos,

It's been a month since our our first Month End Status Update and I announced Pledge Manager surveys were going out. Check out our previous update if you need to refresh your memory. We're just about at the 90% response marker, so most of you have confirmed your selections and collected any available rewards. Thanks!

For the remaining 10%, you can get a refreshing on filling in your survey <here>. We utilize BackerKit for all of our reward fulfillment, so it's important that you visit the page at some point to ensure it's all set up correctly for you.

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://realms-of-pugmire.backerkit.com

Within your BackerKit Digital Rewards page, you'll find a link to the collected Draft manuscript for Realms of Pugmire. So anytime you need to access it, know that it's waiting for you in BackerKit.

REWARDS STILL PENDING

We're in the earliest stages of the post-campaign phase. Our main reward is in the final development phase, taking your feedback and the editor's work and ensuring the book has a consistent voice throughout. The jumpstart is currently in editing. Still lots of work ahead, but we'll check in monthly to see where all the pieces are sitting.

REWARDS DISTRIBUTED TO BACKERS

Each month, I'll list our "Pending" rewards and our "Delivered" rewards. We'll track the project status of our pending rewards by filling in the stage dots, and I'll note which update (and include a link) with each delivered reward, in case you want to go back and re-read the relevant update for more information. If any of these rewards were on your pledge list, you can access download codes in your BackerKit Digital Rewards page. And once they've been added to your DriveThruRPG library, you can access them through your DTRPG digital library at any time.

Reward Distribution: Existing Digital Add Ons and Stretch Goals
about 1 year ago – Fri, Apr 07, 2023 at 07:05:46 AM

Hello Good Doggos,

It's been about a week since I sent our our first Month End Status Update and let you know that Pledge Manager surveys were going out. Check out our previous update if you need to refresh your memory. We're just about at the 65% response marker, so there's still many good dogs that need to check their email and complete the survey.

Hopefully some reward distribution will help inspire you! Because I've got some rewards to send out!

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://realms-of-pugmire.backerkit.com

DIGITAL REWARD DISTRIBUTION

Many of the rewards for our kickstarter projects take a lot of time and effort to complete. Usually, the kickstarter is a means of moving the project from an idea (even when it's a mostly-fully-written idea) into the actual channel that turns it into a project/product. It'll be a while before we're ready to talk about delivery on Realms of Pugmire, and even longer for our projects generated via Stretch Goals (the Adventures, the jumpstart, and the rest).

That said, there are a few rewards that are available now, as they were mostly add-on PDFs or Stretch Goal bundles of existing products. And now we can work on getting those out to you over the weekend.

The following Add On Rewards Will Be Distributed This Weekend:

  • [Add On] Pugmire 1E Digital "Dog" Bundle
  • [Add On] Monarchies of Mau 1E Digital "Cat" Bundle
  • [Add On] Pirates of Pugmire 1E Digital "Bird" Bundle
  • [Add On] Squeaks in the Deep 1E Digital "Rodent" Bundle
  • [Stretch] Pugmire VTT Assets Bundle
  • [Stretch] Fetch Quest Print and Play Bundle

It's basically this section of the Add On menu from our campaign page:

Along with two of our Stretch Goal rewards:

It took me a bit to put together because, thanks to those bundles, there are a lot of codes to go out!

If you want any of these and didn't add them on during the campaign, you can still update your BackerKit page and add them to your rewards list. See the BackerKit How-To instructions above.

REWARD DISTRIBUTION

Your link to claim these digital rewards will be sent out by our BackerKit pledge manager over the next few days. Since we are using our partners at DriveThruRPG as the hosts for these, you will need to set up a DriveThru account if you don't have one already. If you encounter any problems with downloading your rewards, please contact DTRPG's customer service to resolve the matter, they've always been top-rated for customer service. http://www.drivethrurpg.com/contact_us.ph

The best way to ensure these redemption codes work smoothly is to log in to your DTRPG account first, and then click (or copy) the link shown in your BackerKit.

Again, you will receive an e-mail from BackerKit with links for these rewards over the next 2-3 days if any of them are on your expected list of rewards. I'll be releasing them in waves, so don't panic if you only see a couple links at first... the rest are coming. (We're in a digital world, but there are still a lot of manual processes. And there are many links to go out!!)

The easiest way to see if you've got digital downloads available is to login to your backerkit account: https://realms-of-pugmire.backerkit.com and it'll show anything available. Your backerkit account should also confirm all rewards that you should expect from your reward tier selected.

DRAFT MANUSCRIPT

In addition to redemption links for these digital rewards, all backers will be receiving a link to the compiled draft manuscript. This link can be found in your BackerKit digital rewards page, and you'll receive an e-mail linking to that with the first wave of rewards going out. Again, this isn't a new manuscript, it's just all of the pieces we shared during the campaign put together in order. Your link to the draft manuscript will be available in your BackerKit digital rewards page until our final reward goes out, so you'll be able to access it even after the book is in your hands.

TO CONTACT JAMES

If there are any issues with your digital reward redemption links, please let me know asap and I'll get them sorted over the weekend. You can either contact me at one of the methods below or just comment on this update post. As mentioned, there are a LOT of links going at the same time, and I may have messed one up. They can usually be fixed within 24 hours, so just drop word below and then check back in a day.

  •  Via E-Mail: Onyx.Kickstarter [at] gmail.com
  •  Via Kickstarter: Click Richard Thomas under the "Created By" heading on the main page, and then press the "Contact Me" button - the message will come to me!
  •  Via BackerKit: Click "Need Help?" from your page, and then fill in the Contact Us form. BackerKit will pass your message along to me.
