Forgot to check to see if it was cancelled. Thanks for the heads up. In my opinion, Dretelia has too high of a funding goal. $40K is a big ask. Assuming the current distribution of reward tiers played out through the entire campaign, they would need over 1500 backers. That said, the amount...

Here are the 5e Campaign Setting crowdfunding campaigns I'm keeping an eye on right now... Closed and Funded: Talislanta Open and Funded: Codexticon: A Tome of Crime (canceled) Crystals of Alaria Salt Reach Isles: Zilaram The Traveler's Guide to the Dwarven Undercities (part of the Weskven...

While I'm not the target market for that one, I do think it's really interesting to see how successful it is compared to other more widely applicable supplements. Then again, there must have been some pent up demand for a fishing supplement and I'm just out of the loop. :D

Example of a Kickstarter that makes little sense to me. Like, it's a neat idea for a very niche supplement. The level of support is wild to me. $90K so far. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iopublishing/why-slay-dragons-when-you-could-be-fishing

When I first started, I honestly thought I would find a few dozen at most. I think the magical combination of PDF + Kickstarter + OGL really accelerated the growth.

Ran across a bunch of homebrew settings that are available on gmbinder.com. I've decided that I won't be including them on the list. That said, there are a few settings based on Magic: The Gathering there that are well done. Oh... and we're at 296 campaign settings and 129 Adventure Paths.

Here are the 5e Campaign Setting crowdfunding campaigns I'm keeping an eye on right now... Closed and Funded: World of Tyhtara Kamara: Heart of the Sun Vagabond's Guide to Dalriada (over $300K) Open and Funded: Codexticon: A Tome of Crime Crystals of Alaria (as of this post $3 away from...

It's something I wonder about quite a bit. Some seemingly great looking kickstarters barely fund, while others seem to take off like a rocket.

Tried that. Still didn't work. I hear sound, but the screen is blank. Will start from scratch when I find some time this weekend.

This came up recently with regard to a Kickstarter that successfully funded this week. They were very up front about their usage of AI generated art... and I suspect that we'll be seeing more of this in the future. The ethics are definitely worth considering. But it seems that from a market...

Yeah. That's a bit disappointing. Unfortunately, I think we're only going to see more of this in the future.

I couldn't get DF running on my Mac. Will try again later.

I've been keeping track of D&D 5e settings lately. So that means keeping an eye on crowdfunding campaigns that feature setting content. Here's what I'm currently tracking that is close to or has achieved full funding. World of Tyhtara Kamara: Heart of the Sun Vagabond's Guide to Dalriada...

Here's one ending in the next couple of days... https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sapphyra/records-of-eashes-tamiri

Adventure Paths now at 122 Campaign Settings now at 289

I guess once you have a successfully fulfilled Kickstarter, it kinda makes it the default place to promote your next project. If everyone is happy with the first successful project fulfillment, you have direct access to those folks and can more easily grow from there. What doesn't entirely...

Interesting, I didn't realize the DMsGuild took a bigger chunk than DtRPG. But now that you mention it, it makes some sense. I see several publishers have 5e compatible stuff on DtRPG, but not on DMsGuild. I've seen a few personal sites where they link to DtRPG or to Backerkit or KS...

Adventure Paths now at 116 Campaign Settings now at 277

None near me, but the Amazon thing is available (though not for free).

Thanks for the heads up. Will add it on my next sweep of adventure paths.
