Project FAQ
We're using DriveThruRPG to handle the printing and we're doing so via their Print-On-Demand service. So, at the conclusion of the campaign, everyone who backed at a tier that has a physical reward will get a code to print that reward through them at cost plus shipping. Right now, cost for the softcover is around $5 while the cost for the hardcover is around $10. Shipping will depend on your location. The reason for using Print-On-Demand is it allows me to minimize risk while guaranteeing the lowest possible prices for you. it also helps with stability as DriveThruRPG are a well-known and established company with extensive resources so even with the world on fire (for real in some places) the numbers they quote shouldn't fluctuate too much regardless of outside forces.
The core book is 100% complete and ready to go to print. The stretch goals are in various stages of completion, but should be in your hands no later than Q2 of 2025. Those of you who pledge at any tier that gets a PDF copy of the book should get it within 2 weeks of the campaign ending, while the physical copies will go out 6-8 weeks after that.
Nope! I am a fervent opponent of AI in the art and refuse to use it in any of my games or projects. All the art in this book was licensed from actual artists and all the writing was done solely by me.
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
