General Crowdfunding Thread, Mark I

[Lunatic Sledge]

So, I'm the guy that wrote Gratuitous Anime Gimmick.

It's a fairly rules light tabletop RPG with a heavy focus on genre emulation. I wanted GAG to imitate the feel of as much anime as possible, not just at character creation but in the actual gameplay. The shonen-based class can train to get a brief boost toward future tasks, the psychic type class can "lose control" and gain added effects on their powers, the gun toting class gets bonuses and added effects when they make crazy trick shots, etc.

The Kickstarter I'm trying to desperately and/or shamelessly plug is for the first expansion to GAG. Gratuitous Anime Gimmick: Of Raised Dead & Evening Rituals (or GAG: ORDER) is going to narrow the focus a bit, and put more emphasis on horror and gothic style anime. While the first book pulled from everything--from Akira to DBZ to Sailor Moon--GAG: ORDER will be drawing from shows like Vampire Hunter D, Gosick, Hellsing, and Devil Hunter Yohko. It'll feature two new classes (the Mad Scientist and the Priestess), and over 80 new abilities that either weren't fully hashed out in time for the first book, or felt way too dark for the fairly optimistic, modern setting of GAG.

GAG: ORDER has less than a week left and is 72% funded, as of my writing this. I am currently on my flailing panic desperation tour. If you pledge any amount, there's a code in the Updates section for getting the original GAG book in PDF form. In short, you can get the original book for a dollar, today, if you pitch in to the Kickstarter for GAG: ORDER.

I'm gearing up to kickstart a way to play tabletop RPGs online using just a browser, similar to Roll20. I think I've got some neat ideas, and I'd love to make this thing. I've got a draft of the text for a Kickstarter page, is anyone interested in taking a look at it and telling me whether it's exciting to you?

Hi, I'm a fan who wants to share this game that I have backed. The world building is interesting and the art is compelling to me. It's from the same team that created the Age of Arthur books.

It fully funded within a few days and is working on stretch goals now.

Find it on kickstarter as "Liminal RPG"
The Artist Jason Behnke has additional concept art on his blog.

Blurb:
"Liminal is a new tabletop roleplaying game about those on the boundary between the modern day United Kingdom and the Hidden World- the world of secret societies of magicians, a police division investigating Fortean crimes, fae courts, werewolf gangs, and haunted places where the walls between worlds are thin.
The players portray Liminals - those who stand between the mortal and magical realms, with ties to each. "
