Free for All Games

VOID is almost here!
2 months ago – Sun, Sep 15, 2024 at 11:17:59 PM

I'm very excited to announce that VOID is in transit to me, and should be arriving within a week or so. Backer survey forms are currently being reviewed, and should be sent out to you in the next few days so you can provide up-to-date shipping information. Once that's done, all the games will be shipped to you wonderful people.

I'm really proud of how stuff has turned out, and I'm dying to get the game shipped out to you all. 

P.S. consider grabbing a bonus copy in the add-ons if you want to offer some extra support for open-source games or if you got a portrait and want some bonus games to give to friends and family.

VOID is going to print; last chance for Playmats
6 months ago – Tue, May 14, 2024 at 02:59:17 PM

VOID is having its last revision implemented and will be going to print as soon as that's done.

Likewise, the special edition playmats are about to be ordered in limited quantities. Likewise, the last Kim Holm illustration will no longer be available after this point. If you'd like a playmat or great piece of original art, head to backerkit and grab one now, since neither will be available after this.

I'm so excited, having played with the final production prototype (and made some subtle improvements), to get this game in your hand.

The new Free for All Media Patreon has also been going well, and the first public playtest document has been released, of the second game, upcoming from Free for All; The Lost Chronicles of Oz, a tabletop RPG set in the land of OZ, based on the Brighter Worlds and Cairn SRD's. I'll also be releasing game maps and 3d-printable miniatures files, all under free and open licenses. 

Head over for a free membership if you want to keep informed on free culture games and gaming resources I have coming out, or toss a couple bucks a month my way to help create more free culture for everyone.

Production prototype is in, full production is almost here!
8 months ago – Wed, Apr 03, 2024 at 04:21:21 PM

Hello all you intrepid explorers (you do look rather dashing, don't you),

I'm very pleased to announce that the printer delivered the completed production prototype to me, and it looks great. So far, I've only had print-on-demand prototypes, which while very useful in visualizing, never felt like a finished, professional product in the way this does, and it's extremely exciting.

There are a few adjustments I'd like to make, but within the next few weeks, VOID will be going to full production! 

Now that the heaviest part of the work is over, I can announce something I've been excited to do for quite a while, and that's the launch of the Free for All Media Patreon. I want Free for All to be more than just a logo for me to slap onto my free art and culture projects every once in a while. I want it to be something ongoing, transparent and which includes the community that supports and informs it.

As such, the Free for All patreon is now up and running, and will showcase monthly game design projects early to members. You'll get playtest materials, early access to game assets, adventures, 3D printable minis, and at the highest tier, the opportunity to have games in-development run for you (including a playtest credit). If you want to be in the mix and even have the opportunity to contribute to future games, check out the page and consider supporting.

Thank you all so much for your support!

Big News!

Greetings everyone,

I knew it would take me some time to finish the Backer portraits, and do one last refinement pass of the game's graphic design. Everything so far has been going according to schedule but all that behind-the-scenes, and mostly quiet, work took months to complete. In the interim, I have been in contact with the printer I'll be using, and I'm pleased to announce that today I sent the down payment and all art files to them.

The production process is underway. It should take a few more months, and then after shipment I'll be ready to get this game I've loved and toiled over into your hands. This is a big milestone in the production journey, and I feel a lot of pride taking this step with you all. Thank you again for your support. 

Ad Astra,
Justin
