Edit Reason: Some of the code was showing up weird, but it stopped being weird when I tried to edit.

Robert J Woodhead isn't going back to where it all began -- I think that would involve a re-release of the Wizardry games -- but he is bringing AnimEigo's very first OAV release back into print, with the Metal Skin Panic: MADOX-01 Unobtainium Edition.
Quote:MADOX is one of our personal favorites because it not only combines action and comedy with realistic mechanical designs, but also delivers a powerful moral lesson -- "Read the @^#^@ Manual".

Another one from Steve Jackson Games. The Fantasy Trip Quick Quests 2 and 3:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/war...adventures
The Quick Quests are super-short adventures for The Fantasy Trip. Each one is about 2,500 words of character description, GM advice, and combat. Definitely combat. $8 gets you both.

Hey Vern! Y'ever wonder about your old buddy Ernest? Who he is, how he came to be, why he won't leave you alone...
Yeah, even I can only keep that particular bit going for so long, even if I thought everyone here would be up for it, but it seemed an apposite way to lead into telling you about The Importance of Being Ernest (sic). That's right, a documentary about the late, arguably great Jim Varney, particularly about the character who put him on the map -- the thoroughly disengormed Ernest P. Worrell -- not only is seeking funds, it's perilously close to making its goal. The director studied his craft under John Cherry, the advert-maker who first inflicted Ernest on an unsuspecting world back in the 80s or so, and his basis is a book by Varney's actual nephew. Should this interest you anywhere near as strangely as it does me, then listen to your old buddy Austin and just dive right in, knowhutImean?

Years and years ago when there were wolves in Wales and uncles at Christmas, Tennessee-based Infinite Dreams Gaming kickstarted an official Warehouse 13 board game, in which players stepped into the roles of the agents off the Syfy show, working to collect and neutralize Artifacts and, hopefully, figure out which one of them was secretly working with the ex-agent James McPherson before he got his hands on a dangerous Artifact. Now, they've got a campaign going for an expansion that lets you play with Helena "H.G." Wells as the adversary and McPherson as a loyal agent -- or the other way around in revoise, if that's your speed -- and de-Bronzes old-school agents Jack Secord and Rebecca St. Clair for your gaming pleasure. It's on the cusp of funding, despite my having shamefully neglected to tell you about it for a week or so, and the campaign continues through July 14.

Three days left on the GURPS 2021 PDF Challenge, and 10 of the 12 PDFs have been unlocked. They've also included a $5 add-on titled "How to Be a GURPS GM: Combat Encounters", as well as a new $99 rewards tier which grants all the unlocked PDFs plus $125 in BackerKit credit. Only PDFs published by Steve Jackson Games and currently listed for sale on Warehouse 23 qualify, and the credit must be used by the survey deadline. Unspent credit is lost.

Onyx Path Publishing launched their newest 'Realms of Pugmire RPG' Kickstarter a few days ago, 'Squeaks in the Deep':
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/339...aying-game
Quote:Rats and mice live in the margins of the empires of dogs and cats, with homes that connect to the Underneath — a vast collection of warrens, tunnels, caves, and other hidden places. It is a dangerous place full of unexplained phenomena and terrifying creatures. But it is also full of wonders of ages past and the thrill of discovery. For the rodents believe Man was part of something called Science, a way to learn power through study, observation, and experimentation. Perhaps through the exploration of the Underneath, they can rediscover what Man has left behind. It’s time to listen to the squeaks in the deep.
Squeaks in the Deep is a chronicle sourcebook for both Pugmire and Monarchies of Mau. It’s usable with either game, or as part of a joint experience. Some highlights include:
Two new species for players to portray: rats and mice
Six new rodent callings
Psionic rules
Information on the Underneath, as well as a variety of new enemies
“Confluence of Cults,” an adventure featuring the Underneath with both Pugmire and Monarchies starting points

10 days to go. Original goal was $50,000 USD. They are currently sitting at over $6.8 million USD. I think this qualifies as a success.
