Great Question! The good folks at Monte Cook Games were kind enough to discuss their plans with us for upcoming changes to the Cypher System, and the news is all good! The major changes announced for the upcoming "Cypher: Evolved" include genre based character creation to make it easier for new players to play Cypher, and a new damage system to use a wound track for damage instead of subtracting points from your ability pools. The good news is that these changes will have little effect on Six-Gun Doomsday. - Six-Gun Doomsday includes a simplified character building system - Character Profiles - to quickly create characters based on common tropes of these genres. - Six-Gun Doomsday uses it's own simple and dramatic damage system different that the original Cypher System or the upcoming Cypher: Evolved. We anticipate the full version of Six-Gun Doomsday will release early in 2026, while the next version of Cypher won't be until later, perhaps a year after that (that's our guess). We'll release the amazing adventure and setting of Six-Gun Doomsday to backers ASAP so you can play right away with all the really cool additions you will love. As a backer to this Six-Gun Doomsday campaign, once the next version of Cypher is released, we'll also get you an updated version of Six-Gun Doomsday at no additional charge to make use of any other cool options in the game! (for print on demand orders, this won't include shipping cost). Please contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions about this. Thanks, all!

Before Doomsday, the industrial revolution that brought waves of wondrous devices enabling improved means of production also empowered a generation of inventors whose devices could be rightly described as curious and bizarre. Their creations were often astounding and occasionally dangerous. Average citizens scoffed at these newfangled machines which left them uninformed about new methods of production but equally safe from any of its accidental abnormalities.

Please note that all printed products will be fulfilled as Print on Demand. You will receive a credit on Drive-Thru RPG to order your books. Note that this credit does NOT cover shipping, so you will be charged for shipping on all Print On Demand orders.

We anticipate that the final version of Six-Gun Doomsday will be completed in early 2026. If we have any unanticipated delays we will communicate this through our community page and emails and we'll keep the schedule updated here and at https://shadomain.com/

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.

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.

1. Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
2. Select any add-ons
3. Confirm your pledge!

• You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
• Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.

After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey to pay for any applicable shipping fees, calculated based on your shipping address.

Pay Over Time allows you to split your pledge into multiple payments over a set period. Your card will be charged according to the payment schedule (four monthly payments). Only available for projects that enable this feature. Learn More »

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.

For specific questions about your pledge or the project, you can view the Project FAQ below, search for your answer within the project, or send a message to the BackerKit Support Team or to the project creator.
