It's the home stretch! I thought I'd take this opportunity to assemble all the cool stuff we've made so far during this campaign and drop it here for people new and old to dig through! First, a few of you have asked about the preview doc! It's here, just give it a click and get your copy!
There are 5 videos in here that are each between 3 and 10 minutes long that will give you the rundown on most if the core dice mechanics in the game, as well as some neat side features. There's also one of several character creation examples done live at the end so you can see them used in real time.
So now you know the space and the general rules, but you want to get into the nitty gritty. Follow the links to videos about the Manifestations themselves, thoughts on the game's design and structure, and more! These videos are more lunch-length and will give you a great picture of a lot of the game's ideas and design.
Like listening to me talk? Shhh, don't answer that, I'm posting this anyway.
There's a whole collection of videos that go spread-by-spread and explain thought processes and ideas behind the game and design. There are fully 13 videos in this list so there's lots to see! Most of them are between 7-10 minutes.
Gallerie is a ttrpg with a grid component purely because I find that easier to visualize and I love little plastic people, so dont worry if you're not a big tactical rpg fan. There's robust combat in here but it doesnt dominate the game in the least, nor are ANY minis actually required to really engage with the game. But, that being said, part of being the designer means I get to include things I enjoy, and I enjoy little plastic people. AND MY MY DO WE HAVE A LOT OF THEM. AND FLUFFY ONES TOO! Fluffy ones with a 15" WINGSPAN! All this and more can be found in the add-ons, so now's your chance to stack some fun stuff onto your order for you or some friends! 2 DAYS LEFT YALL, FIND YOUR PARTY AND LET'S DO THIS!
Peeps we are heading into the FINAL WEEK of the Gallerie TTRPG funding cycle! I've got a couple of really cool things to show off here for you. First, check out this glowing review of the game by Library of Words, who took a look at it recently and was kind enough to write about it!
secondly, THE SECOND FULL FACTION OF MINIS IS COMPLETE!
The Bloody Guilds of Hannover are a visceral and fun deconstruction of avarice and the brutality of gain. Members begin their lives as Knives: early hunters with little training or ability aside from their determination to gain power through bloodshed. If ability carries them far enough they can have parts of the monsters they've slain grafted to them and become Cobbled, taking on larger and grander pray and grafting more and more onto themselves until they become Blooded; monsters themselves. A Blooded Knife is a towering and formidable foe the match for any Muse, and indeed that's who they're hunting. For if a Blooded can gain Favor for the killing of a Muse, they can spend it to return their bodies to human shape while maintaining the abilities they've grafted into themselves. This evolution gains them full status as Blades; fanged, transforming savagery hidden behind trim attire and a steely glare. The final evolution of a Blade is the Tireless: Eternal Blades who can not only manifest the parts they've grafted, but can morph their whole body into custom creatures that make full use of their abilities. Sometimes called False Muses, an Eternal Blade has many of the same abilities. They can change their shape, paint with Brushwork, manifest weaponry, but all was gained by ripping it piece by piece from the world around them and taking it for themselves.
The Bloody Guilds currently have 5 minis in their line (there will probably be a sixth: the Knives (the first stage) have no specific differentiating motif other than "people with stabby things" so I haven't sculpted them yet) That join the Prelacy's already completed SEVEN MINI LINE to contribute a total of TWELVE UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL SCULPTS AND TWO FINISHED FACTIONS in the mini .stl add on!
That's only about $3.75 a sculpt, less if I manage to get that last one done in time. And that's not including THE FULL BREWHAVEN BUILDING STL, which is a part of the Patron Tier (which ALSO gets you all these minis PRINTED). If you're looking to really have a ton of assets ready to use, out of the box and onto your table, consider upgrading to the Patron Tier. Pay over time is available and it comes with SO MUCH OTHER COOL STUFF TOO! When we began the Gallerie Backerkit not many of you really knew what your characters were going to look like in this game. It has its own chargen, its own options, its own setting, and none of it follows traditional depictions of fantasy roleplay. But now that we have THE FULL MANIFESTATION RUNDOWN VIDEOS
And a bunch of art and depiction examples, as well as a month's worth of streaming at this point, I'm hoping you have a much stronger idea of who you might make and what you might play! As such, going into our final week I'm REDUCING THE PRICE on the character art add on by $100! This full color feature immortalizes you in the books and is something you get to enjoy every time you open them, don't miss out!
Friends we are in the final stretch. Now's the time to bang the drums. Gallerie is funded, but only just. That doesn't leave much room for stretch goals or much headway for future content, and there's so much left this world has to give. Please help spread the word! You're going to love it here, and the further we get past funded the faster and easier it will be to continue making new content for your new favorite world. If there's content you'd like to see in the final week, tell me about it here and I'll try and make that happen!
Hey all, Im going to put up a new video tomorrow about the Blades of Hannover, another deadly faction in Gallerie with its own mini line included in the mini add-on package, but in the meantime come check out this great interview with Tabletop Misfits!
Hey all, we'll be having a live interview with the good people at Tabletop Misfits today, going over Gallerie and various points of interest with the game and the campaign! It starts at 2pm Pacific and runs for an hour, catch it here or at https://m.twitch.tv/tabletop_misfits/home
Peeps, the next goal is about 5K away and we can absolutely get it! There are some awesome things for you to get in on this weekend and monday too, check it out:
Starting in about 10 mins Halley, one of the project artists, will be bringing a brand new group through their first session live here and on https://www.twitch.tv/fiaurathetankgirl. Should run for about 6 hours so join them all there!
On monday, I have an interview with the good peeps at https://www.instagram.com/stories/tabletopmisfit/ about Gallerie where we'll get into the game, the design, and everything else you'd like to know! If you have questions or topics you'd like covered please do comment here!
And as always, please spread the word! This is a game made specifically for a niche audience and that means I need that audience's help to get the word out. Thank you so much!
