Machine Age Productions

First, here’s our daughter with our new convention banner:

You’ll notice the artwork of the wonderful Ruth Lampi on our wall as well. Now we’ve addressed that…

The Kickstarter hit $2,000. That’s awesome. In fact, it’s at $2,105 right now. This means that the contributors will soon be deciding on an exclusive supplement for the game. The final day of the campaign is Friday. Do you think we can make it an even $2,500? I do. So here’s my teaser, and it’s a doozy:

I’m already writing a new game. I literally have the design document open in another browser tab. This game is wholly different thematically from Maschine Zeit, but I can damned near guarantee you’ll dig it when you hear about it. I’m that confident about it. I’m writing this game, in addition to putting in work on a Maschine Zeit supplement, in addition to the supplement I’ll be writing for the contributors’ specs, and in addition to editing and concept work on the first Maschine Zeit adventure kit.

If I hit $2,500 in preorders by Friday, contributors will become a part of the process.

What do I mean by this?

I mean, I’ll set up an email list with contributors, if they wish to be included. It’ll be a one-way thing. I’ll send them the initial design document. I’ll send them drafts and outlines. I’ll send them art proofs. I will be open to input, if people want to see certain things in the finished product, I’ll weigh them for potential inclusion. They’ll get the layout/publisher proof of the document. Then, when it’s all said and done, the contributors will be credited in the product, and they’ll receive the final PDF.

Snappy, right?

If you’ve been wavering, considering preordering, now’s your time. If you were considering raising your amount for a better package, now’s the time. If we hit this goal, you’ll be a part of our next Machine Age Production.
