Hello Everyone, The crowdfunding campaign has wrapped up! With your support we were able to add a lot to It Followed Me Home: - We added 16 pages of content, taking the original module from 28 to 44 pages - We brought in incredible talented guest contributors: Wacomatrixo, Terry Herc, ChrisAir, and WatcherDM. While we came up just short of our last goal, as a big thank you for backing this project we're still bringing on Daniel Hallinan as a guest writer to create a pet/companion for us.
Backer Companion Poll Results
Over 200 votes were cast, and we really enjoyed the posts and how close the results were (the top two finished with the same number of votes!). So, for the final module, we're adding the top three! 1. The Creature 2. Pet Rock 3. Scrap-pet

Hello Everyone! We're under 24 hours to campaign's end, thank you all for backing It Followed Me Home! With your support, we've been able to:
Bring in multiple guest writers: Terry Herc, Wacomatrixo, WatcherDM, and ChrisAir
Expand our module to 44 pages, a growth of 16 pages from launch
We're closing in on our final stretch goal, bringing in the venerable Daniel Hallinan, the extraordinary mind behind Bloom, VR-DEAD, and Under the Skin.
As an early preview, artist Tristan Tolhurst has started his hand-drawn illustration on the cyberat, guest writer Terry Herc's creation.
Terry's creation is wonderful and we can't wait to get it published alongside this incredible illustration.
Voting Ends Tomorrow!
As the project ends, so does the Backer's Choice Companion poll. Nearly 200 backers have cast their vote so far and it's been a nail-biter. There's still time to get your vote in! With such an incredible response, we're adding at least the top two voted companions to the final module.

Hello Everyone! As part of It Followed Me Home, we're designing a custom pet panic table to help ramp up the stress when everything starts to go wrong. Our design goal has been creating effects that add to the situation unfolding by providing opportunities for role-playing or add challenges to an already complex situation. Here's a sneak peak of what we've been building...
All of these conditions are based on real-life pet-stress reactions to give their behavior a greater sense of realism as events build in intensity. We can't wait to hear how these play out at your table.
