In huge news, Netcrawl:Acrologies won a Golden Fez at Total Con 40! I am over the moon to see the project recognized by my peers! Check it out!
Patreon
In a few scant days this Patreon turns 4 years old! Thanks for being here and supporting my, I guess, award-winning work!
CPU Quarterly
Print order for 50 copy run of Netcrawl Programmer Handbook, update patch 2.0 has arrived! The PDF was also refreshed at DriveThruRPG. If you're a CPU member from January to March, I'll be mailing you out one. In fact they just went out yesterday. There'll be a handful of extras available for purchase on horsesharkgames.com.
Patreon Product Updates
I am removing PDFs and T-Shirts from the Patreon. You can still buy access to Patreon posts there, but all other electronic and physical goods will be available at horsesharkgames.com. By the way there are only 4 T-Shirts left in stock two Larges and two 2XLs. If the shirt fits, get one!
Media
Netcrawl is getting some attention in the RPG news cycle. A couple articles in the web press scene and a 3 page in depth write up in Knights of the Dinner Table. Check them out!
And on top of that those crazy boys over at Exalted Funeral chatted about Arcologies on their "what's new" show Coffee and Coffins (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zz6xeVvjcog)
And that's it. The US fulfillment campaign is done. Thanks to all the backers that made Netcrawl possible!
International
After an unusually long delay at the border, all the books for international backers has arrived in Canada and are now in Ratti Incantati's warehouse. Last update was some boxes were ordered for shipping.
Events
I had a tremendous week in Massachusetts! I spoke to game design students at Fitchburg State University about Netcrawl and then we played the scenario out of the back of the book. About 15-20 people watched and gamed.
Then I attended Total Con 40. I was able to meet some new people like Jeffrey Talanian (Hyperborea RPG), Erik Tenkar (Tenkar's Tavern), and Ian McGarty (Silver Bulette) put names and faces together like meeting Wolf Manzella, Jayson Elliot (Solarian Games), Bryan Larkin (Arcane Sword Press) in person, and see good friends like Joey Royale and Tim Duchene.
I played DCC RPG: Hellpits of Nightfang with Judge Tim Duchene presiding and Shadowdark with Ian McGarty (DM) & Ed Murphy. A game of Munchkin was also played with a bunch of cool folks from Solarian Games.
Then of course I was honored to be a Golden Fez Award winner late Saturday night!
Up Next
In a couple weeks I fly to NYC to give a talk at SUNY Stony Brook and then I'll visit the Long Island Table Top RPG Expo. If you're going to be there let me know.
