Did you miss MASTIFF? Here's your SECOND CHANCE!
FINAL TWO DAYS of RPG Kickstarter! Comics Added!
Morning thrillers and killers.
PERFORMANCE REVIEW: An Office Survival RPG is on the homestretch, with less than 48 hours to go. And I've decided to add a couple add-ons to the campaign for all you comic book lovers who might have missed my last couple launches!
WINNER: BEST GRAPHIC NOVEL - The Australian Shadow Awards 2023
WINNER: BEST GRAPHIC NOVEL - The New York Science Fiction and Horror Film Festival 2023
Synopsis: Knockaround-Guy (KG) and Cthulhu Williams don't always see eye-to-eye. KG is a D-List superhero (and talking gorilla) who solves the weird and bizarre, street-level cases the A-List ignore. Williams is a paranormal investigator/monster hunter who takes his job VERY seriously.
While they try their best to stay out of each other's way, they find themselves on a collision course when Pancit Palabok Man begins prowling the streets of Struggle-Town.
When the notorious Nazi super-villain The Iron Reichsadler winds up dead it isn't long before both KG and Williams are staring straight into the shiny, manoeuvrable, merciless eyes of the awesome urban predator.
Can the combined might of KG and Williams overcome the crustaceous chaos of Pancit Palabok Man?

HOW TO CHOOSE ADD-ONS!
So, if you're after some comic book goodness, this is your chance! Some people think GORILLA MY DREAMS TEAM-UP #1 is great, hence the awards, and I haven't submitted MASTIFF to any competitions yet, so fingers are crossed for 2024 to be MASTIFF's year!
Before I go, I want to show off another #ZineQuest RPG campaign I'm currently backing. If you're like me and struggle balancing your fitness and game time, this is something you could be interested in.
Dice Dumbbells & Dragons
A fitness based TTRPG where exercise powers your in-game character.
From the creator: I love tabletop role playing games and working out. Just like most people I struggle with the daily grind of sticking with my health and fitness goals. I don't seem to have that problem with games, I am always day dreaming about different character builds, or cool magical items to quest for. That is why I have been working for several years to build a game that combines both. Dice Dumbbells and Dragons is a fitness based adventure where completing exercises powers your character. This game helps give meaning to every mile run, and every weight lifted. Don't just day dream about all of the cool things your ttrpg character can do, dice dumbbells and dragons helps you realize those feats in real life. While there are plenty of other apps or video games out there that allow you to workout for badges or points, nothing quite blends fitness and ttrpgs together in a way that felt authentic to me. My goal is to provide a ttrpg framework that helps you build your fitness in real life, while taking on monsters and traps in the game.
By supporting this project you will be getting the core rulebook, this explains how to turn your daily workouts, into adventures. See the cover art below. You will also be getting one weeks adventure including maps, encounters, and mentors to train with. See some of the example pages below.
So, I am really keen on checking this out. I am so curious on how this plays out, but I think it's brilliant!
Check out the Dice Dumbbells & Dragons Kickstarter page and let's get this project off the ground!
That's all for today. Thanks again so much for your support here. Talk again soon.
