I always just assumed it was meant to be "your character" which is why you don't see the face. In the end it's you...whether you're a man or a woman. Anyone that's really bothered can grab the Super 7 action figure.

Over the course of the campaign we also published four Design Journals already, a complete Tome of Requirements, and more! Lots of cool stuff to discover, and the first full backer survey on the project design goes out tonight when the Kickstarter funds!

This is your last warning! There's only 8 hours left to join the adventure! We're building a brand new fantasy RPG system with an epic-level team of veteran game designers—and then giving it away for free! Best of all, we want YOU to be part of the process! Check out the Consulting Design team...

Thanks! We're very excited!

This week! They'll become a bit more detailed and regular once the campaign ends, but I've got another one coming soon!

Yeah, same here! :) And now, as of today, we've already unlocked the next stretch goals (the Compatibility Logo) which means next up is adding the final member of our dream team, Kenneth Hite!

Rules for Exotic Mounts? Unlocked Robin D. Laws, Consulting Designer? Unlocked 14 days left! I've got a good feeling about this. Also, be sure to check out the design journals:

This is a great idea. In fact, our development process is based on Agile/Scrum (since I'm a software guy in my day job). You can find the proposed process document here: https://www.aetaltis.com/cngh/BETA_CNGHDevelopmentandDesignProcess-v0.1-011123.pdf In the meantime, we'll definitely...

We're shooting for brilliant with a dash of joyful chaos.

Oh, man. What an awful experience. Hope they find an easy answer to help him.

AND we already unlocked our first Stretch Goal! Things are going amazingly well!

Thank you!! We are really excited, especially about the potential for stretch goals.

The Kickstarter is now live, and we posted the first of our Design Journals! The Journals are a big part of this, because we're bringing everyone along for the ride as we build this thing. We're only just getting started, but we already have stuff to share in terms of the process. We also are...

Here at Mechanical Muse we're all kind of enjoying the Cool Name moniker as well. It's totally grown on us! As for giving your two-cents, we want to hear from as many people as possible. We know we'll never make the perfect game for everyone, but we'd love to get as much input as we can. The...

Yeah - we don't want there to EVER be a situation with this content where someone buys some company and their lawyers try to change the rules.

Thanks! We do too! And responding the "too many cooks", we hear that and have given it a lot of thought. Here is how the process will work: We will reach out to the Consulting Designers at different stages of the development process and say something like "We'd like you to review this 2500...

A key part of this project are our Consulting Designers, and we're pleased to introduce you to eight of them today! Toiya Kristen Finley Toiya is a skilled designer experienced in both digital and tabletop game design. She's the co-author of The Game Narrative Toolbox, holds a Ph. D in...

Just to clarify, building that system is actually what the project is about. We're not just launching a system we've been working on that fits our own interpretation of what is needed. Rather, we're taking a set of core design principals and values, concepts developed in part by working with...

Excellent advice and I totally agree! coolnamerpg.com is the site name we've been using when we talk about it, but that name is for the project of building the system. When all is said and done, odds are there will be a community owned site for the final system. AND choosing that name is part...

As part of this project, we're bringing on some of the best designers in the business as Consulting Designers. It's all part of the plan to make the best game possible before we give it back to the world. We made our first announcement a few days ago with Steven S. Long of HERO System fame...
