VTT Integration UNLOCKED & Another Record Broken!
about 1 year ago – Fri, Oct 27, 2023 at 12:17:33 PM

We did it! Now that the clock is ticking down, everyone came out in force and we SMASHED our $2.75M stretch goal way faster than any of us expected! And with that, we are now offering...

VTT Integration! 

Many have asked, what's the difference between this new VTT integration and the VTT digital asset bundle that we've been offering since the campaign launched, so here it is broken down! 

• The VTT Digital Asset Bundle is a pack of images from The Crooked Moon including maps, tokens, reference cards, and more to be used however you'd like in any VTT of your choice, offered in high and low res and multiple file formats! Offered as a $30 add-on and included in the Digital Deluxe Tier, Deluxe Box (NEW with the Stretch Goal!), and All-In Box. 
• The NEWLY UNLOCKED VTT Integration is The Crooked Moon integrated into Alchemy (enhanced edition), Foundry VTT, and Roll20 in a ready-to-play format. Offered as a $70 add-on and included for FREE in the Digital Deluxe Tier, Deluxe Box, and All-In Box. 

If you want the VTT Integration and feel like you no longer need the VTT Digital Asset bundle, you can easily swap those add-ons! And now the Deluxe and All-In Boxes have even MORE value than ever before! 

Now begins the drive to our next stretch goal...

Minion Miniatures! 

If we hit $3M, we will unlock miniatures for the minions of ALL 11 BOSS FIGHTS! And the best part is, if you're already getting the boss minis, you just get More Minis for FREE! We've also gotten a lot of questions about this stretch goal, so here is how it works!  If we unlock the stretch goal:

• All of our boss miniatures will come with 3-6 miniatures of the minions that feature in their respective boss fights. So whether you're getting a single boss miniature add-on, a bundle, or the All-In Box / Miniatures Only Tier, you'll simply now get the boss miniature/s PLUS their respective minion miniatures! 
• The Price of the Miniatures Will Not Change. So if we hit the $3M stretch goal, these minion miniatures will be added to the All-In Box and Miniatures Only tier for FREE! And they'll also be added to all miniature add-ons for FREE!  
• All 11 Boss Miniature Minion files will be included in the Boss Miniature STL pack, so the STL pack will have DOUBLE the Miniatures at no extra cost! 

We'd love to hit this next stretch goal and unleash the minions! 

2nd Biggest 5E Kickstarter of All Time!

Last night, we hit wild milestone for our campaign as we became the second biggest 5E Kickstarter of all time! It's surreal to see so much incredible support as first-time publishers and it's hard to believe we still have over 5 days to go! Let's see how high we can climb and what further AWESOME stretch goals we have planned! ;)

Thank you all so much! See you next time!

FREE Dice for ALL Physical Backers, Deluxe Box VTT Upgrade, and Music Teaser!
about 1 year ago – Thu, Oct 26, 2023 at 02:58:42 PM

Hey all! We're so thrilled by the outpouring of support from everyone thus far. We just returned from Gamehole Con in Madison, WI, where we met tons of awesome people and talked The Crooked Moon! Now we're ramping up for the FINAL WEEK of our campaign! 

FREE DICE! 

To celebrate the success of The Crooked Moon and Halloween just around the corner, we've decided to give away a FREE set of Pumpkin King dice to ALL physical backers of The Crooked Moon! Tell your friends! 

If you've already backed a physical product, you're good to go! Just as with the Early Backer Horned King Dice, you'll have the option to receive these beautiful Halloween dice for free! If you've backed only digital products, you have until the campaign concludes to upgrade to a physical tier or add-on a physical item to claim this offer! These are Kickstarter-exclusive and will never be available again after the campaign concludes! 

Deluxe Box Upgraded! 

After revealing our next 2 stretch goals, we received lots of feedback and we heard you loud and clear. When we hit our $2.75M Stretch Goal, we will add a VTT Integration AND the VTT Digital Asset Bundle to the Deluxe Box in addition to the All-In Box and Digital Deluxe Tier. At $2.75M, the Deluxe Box becomes all the more valuable if you are still considering an upgrade! 

Music Teaser From The Blasting Company! 

While The Blasting Company works hard on producing music for The Crooked Moon, they've allowed us to share this initial "sketch" of the next track from our main soundtrack, themed around everyone's favorite ghost train, The Ghostlight Express! 

PLEASE NOTE: This is a very rough draft sung by Justin of The Blasting Company. The final version will have updated lyrics, vocals, instrumentation, length, and more. We just wanted to tease you all with the vibe we're going for with our next tune! 

Thanks again for everyone's incredible support! We're excited to have an awesome final Halloween week!

2.5 Million Goal and MORE Music by The Blasting Comapny!
about 1 year ago – Tue, Oct 24, 2023 at 09:53:55 AM

With just 8 days left in this amazing campaign, you've all helped unlock another stretch goal. That's right, MORE MUSIC by The Blasting Company. Music is something that can bring your table top games to the next level. We wanted to provide a soundtrack that can be looped with suggestions of which tracks to play during which parts of the adventure. This will really help get the table emersed in the lands that comprise Wickermoor Hollow.

The next goals we're looking to reach are VTT integrations, and minion miniatures! The integrations are another thing people have been asking for, and we want to make that happen! This will be a NEW ADD-ON where you add to your pledge and choose your integration platform.  The Digital Deluxe tier and All-In Box will be receiving this add-on for free. Then we're looking to beef up our boss fights with more more mini add-ons to throw at your party. Thanks again for all your support. We're excited looking ahead as we close in on the final week of the campaign!

Folk Horror Handouts at 2.25 Million!
about 1 year ago – Tue, Oct 17, 2023 at 04:11:12 AM

Good Morning, backers!

After cryptids, character sheets were one of the single most requested items from you all! We do our best to take the feedback you're giving us, and turn that into awesome, real rewards.  None of this would be possible without you, so we wanted to add this goal, and give you even more extras!

Bespoke character sheets, initiative cards, and spell scrolls are just a few of the amazing printables we'll be including. Trust us when we say, when you hand your players a physical spell scroll they just found during an adventure, they are going to truly feel like the heroes they are. Thanks again for all of the amazing support. The Blasting Company is ready, and excited, to work on the next stretch goal if we hit it!

Projects We Love: The Fablemaker's Deck of Many Things for 5e
about 1 year ago – Sun, Oct 15, 2023 at 10:41:25 AM

The Fablemaker’s Deck of Many Things: An Oracle for Risk and Reward is an oracle deck based on the fifth edition deck of many things. Beautifully illustrated by Yoshi Yoshitani, these cards are perfect for asking yourself challenging questions and prompting reflection.

The deck can also be used as a 5e compatible deck of many things.

The Fablemaker’s Deck of Many Things is a deck of two halves: a full-color set and a monochrome set featuring the same art but from a new perspective. You can mix and match the two halves of the deck in your oracle readings and your games to create a bespoke experience. 

Overworld Cards

23 full-color cards form the Overworld half of the deck. If you are using the deck as a 5th edition deck of many things, you can use the Overworld cards as the in-game magic item we all know, love, and fear.

Underworld Cards

The 23 cards of the Underworld feature the same beautiful illustrations as the Overworld deck but in stunning monochrome. While the Overworld deck is the familiar magic item, the Underworld deck is its reflective counterpart.

The Underworld cards can also be used as an in-game magic item as they come with all-new 5e mechanics for the deck of many things based on the themes of the oracle cards.

The Kickstarter is only live until Thursday. November 2, 2023 @ 3pm ET, so be sure to check it out now!
