Crawler's Companion Kickstarter Update

We're over 35% of the way there folks! If current pledge trend continue, we'll need about 50 more backers to get this off the ground. :) I'm keeping my eyes open for additional places to get the word out, and we've had some great links from a number of fine blogs. I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to link to the Kickstarter.

I'd also like to point out that if you're a fan of our other utilities, such as the party and character generators, the equipment we'll be purchasing with the proceeds from the Kickstarter will help us test those and future utilities on more platforms/browsers. So even if you don't have a tablet at the moment (though the prices of many Android tablets are falling fast!), you'll still be seeing a benefit from your pledge. (And you'll get some fine adventures and swag, too!)

In the past week we've had more than 20,000 characters created through the Purple Sorcerer site, a significant portion of them from the U.K., France, Spain, Norway, Sweden, Germany, Australia and New Zealand. It's thrilling to see excitement for the DCC RPG spread, and I look forward to continuing to create many more tools to help our community grow.

Thanks for your support!

Ooze Pits on the Horizon

Wow, the release of "The Ooze Pits of Jonas Gralk," the second Sunken City adventure is only a couple weeks out. I'm very happy with the way its shaping up but now it's a race to the finish!

Here's a sneak peek of the map of the quirky hamlet of Slither's End, where the fun begins... (some might recognize our huge snake friend from the Perils of the Sunken City Mustertown map... but this time he's not just around for decoration!)

Softcover POD version of Perils of the Sunken City

For all those who have requested the printed version, it IS coming! I've had some back and forth with the printer, and I'm waiting on the final proof. Each round-trip informational journey takes quite a while. :(

On the plus side, this is a learning experience, and we should have the kinks worked out for future releases! (And the cover on the penultimate proof looks SWEET, if I must say. :) )

Upper Level Character Generator

We've started working on a companion to the 0-level party generator that creates a single higher level character. We're in the very early stages as far as customization and polish goes, but I'm guessing many could find it useful in its current state. Check it out: updates should come early and often!

The Crawler's Companion Kickstarter is Live!

The goal of this Kickstarter is to make the Crawler's Companion (our dice-rolling, rules-referencing, table-crushing DCC RPG utility) available on as many mobile devices as possible, starting with iPads and Android 2.2 and higher tablets. I'm committed to keeping all the Purple Sorcerer DCC utilities free, but this effort will require some equipment/tool purchases - thus the need for the Kickstarter. I've tried to include a number of fun rewards along the way, so you'll get more than just a cool utility and the warm and fuzzy feeling that will come by helping the Dungeon Crawl Classics community expand!

Here's the link to the Crawler's Companion Kickstarter:

Check it out, tell your friends, lets make this happen.

Thanks to everyone for your support.
