Oh, it's been developed already.  We're at the "find a publisher" stage.

Nice -- I thought you still had some development to go, too.

Well, having a group of 12 people to toss the rules at and be like "go at it" and seeing what they do would be MOST helpful.  Figure out better ways to word the rules, resolve confusing rules, as well as see if any other things need to be balanced out.

Thing is, we don't HAVE a group of people we can do that with.

Yeah, finding good sources of feedback is always tough.  Thought about soliciting volunteers from your backers?  I bet you could find a group of 12 that is quite savvy... though probably not local to one another.

I think I just heard the sound of a swimming pool filling up with gold coins; any idea what that was, Draco18s? ;)

1016 backers swiping their credit cards.

Well.  We'd have to find people local to us, preferably.  I'll raise the question on Sunday.

Thought I'd update with this monstrocity, which graced my inbox this morning.

Behold, behind the scenes art in progress!



Other than "sea cucumber head" and possibly "pterodactyl legs" I'm not sure WHAT it is.

Porcupine, yeah, that's probably what that is.

Not a duck tail though, we didn't have any duck parts.

Hehe, it does kind of look like it.

I don't think we did roaches though.

I'm sure I could figure it out if I looked through the parts, just haven't been inclined to do so.

I know, but sometimes it's more fun to guess.  :D
