Merry Christmas! (LARM PRODUCT BUNDLE FOR FREE)


Hey folks!

I hope you are having an excellent holiday season!

I got busy with church services and neglected to get this posted sooner. From now until January 2, I am giving the "Village of Larm" PDF PRODUCT BUNDLE away for free! That's a detailed village with three starter adventures and three full-sized adventures. I know some of these books go back to the very beginning of BHP (and they look like it too!) while LARM was updated last year - but for folks just getting into OSR gaming, they can be very helpful.

You can get it here: LARM Trilogy [BUNDLE]: LARM Trilogy [BUNDLE]

One Last Edit of Delving Deeper RPG


Copyright Mark Allen
As the proofing suggestions for the first booklet came in, it became clear to the Delving Deeper RPG Development Team that the entire text of the game needed one more, complete edit. To do this, we have added a new team member – Simon Bull (“Waysoftheearth”) who shares our love for Original Edition and has excellent editing skills. Having a fresh set of eyes and another heart for Original Edition on board at the very end of this project is exactly what Delving Deeper RPG needs.

Simon's edit is already in progress and we really like the results we are seeing! The language of the text is being perfected, excess descriptions and commentary are being removed and few mechanics are being tweaked to be even more reminiscent of the earliest version of Original Edition.

Most of us have purchased rpg products in the past where one last, solid edit would have made a great deal of difference. Who likes to buy a print product only to see an up-dated version released a week or even a month later? I know that really bothers me and I am sure it does most gamers as well. As a publisher, I know that no product is ever perfect and you can spend an eternity trying to get it that way. At some point, you do have to release a product or it is essentially vaporware. Those of you who went through the “box ordeal” with me a few years ago know that I can be trusted to deliver this game very soon.

Personally, Delving Deeper RPG has become a sacrifice of love for me. I have continued to fund the development even during the last seven months of my unemployment. When decisions had to be made about the game, every choice I have made has been for the long haul – even if it meant spending the precious few dollars I was earning from rpgs sales. In other words, I have not cut any corners nor tried to push the product out-the-door before it was ready. Seeing this game completed, released and shipped will be a milestone in my life. Believe me, know one wants to see Delving Deeper RPG finished more than me!

Please stay with us just a bit longer. For everyone who has (or will) order a Delving Deeper Boxed Set, I am adding (in addition, to the many booklets already part of the Delving Deeper Boxed Set) the first three Delving Deeper adventure modules. Plus, I am also going to send a free pdf (with art) of the game with every purchase until in ships.

Thank you. :)
