    The Rise And Fall Of Evil Genius Games

    There are two ways for us to succeed. Grassroots and perseverance and big-pocket investors. The issue with the latter we are seeing in REAL TIME. The issue with the former is that it requires patience. Ten years, this was a part-time job until the 2018 UM5 KS blew up. When Affinity also did...

    I don't wish for the job loss, certainly, but it does show that virality can be encouraged with cold hard cash.

    It's coincidental that we switched from U5 to UM5 recently, but that was because with our font, U5 looks like a swastika, LOL.

    My guess is that over two Kickstarters, they spent about $100,000 on advertising. And that's based on my own advertising budgets. I think it could be closer to $200,000. And this is JUST on KS promotion, not convention appearances. Fold that in, and they spent more on promotion than we have...

    Aww, thank you! I mean EGG and DEM could not be more different outside the similarities of our products. We're grassroots. My accountant is my wife...or is it my wife is my accountant? She'll correct me later. We were concerned with the big tech money EGG was throwing down, we would get lost in...

    Have I been compressing it wrong since day one? I kept calling it EH, but seems everyone is calling it EDH.

    I do find it depressing that we've been around for ten years, with both the old UM5 and the second edition being mithril badge-selling titles compared to Everyday Heroes' gold, and having had five successful Kickstarters, but people have heard of EGG more than us. It just goes to show that a...

    Does this mean we need to start a support group? :P Those that talked with Scott about a relationship only for said relationship to fizzle?

    What a great analysis. Thanks for the insight. I wish more people would use KS for the "pass the hat" ideologies, but so often it's a tool for those investors to drum up hype.

    EGG reached out to Dias Ex Machina to adapt some of our products to the EH system. At the time, we we prepping for our next Kickstarter for Ultramodern5, and I thought that would dilute focus from our own UM5 system. They offered to help publish these books, and while tempted, I ultimately...

    I mean. It's not like there aren't other options out there. I know of a few. WINK.

    D&D 5E (2014) Final Days for Ultramodern5 on Backerkit.

    It was a short campaign, and we are reaching the end of our latest journey. Ultramodern5 is the most successful 3rd party, non-fantasy sourcebook for 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons. Not only are we offering an opportunity to acquire physical books are prices far lower than print-on-demand, but...
