The Between backer train is STILL running!
over 1 year ago – Sat, Nov 02, 2024 at 01:19:50 PM

We are less than $3K away from unlocking our final stretch goal!

We have kept the backer train going for nearly 40 hours. This is officially the longest overtime period for any BackerKit project, having passed Caverns of Thracia and Brandon Sanderson's game. And we may hold this record for quite some time, haha.

Listen: 2 days ago, we thought we were leaving 4 stretch goals on the table, but because of the community's persistence, we are within striking distance of unlocking the last one. This is an incredible outcome.

Help us get over the line in any way you can!

And join us on The Gauntlet Discord server! It's going to be pretty exciting in there if we can finish this thing up! 

We'll see you on the other side (for real this time)!

The Between has one stretch goal left!
over 1 year ago – Fri, Nov 01, 2024 at 05:12:27 PM

Beyond all hope, beyond all reason, we have managed to keep the backer train going and unlock all the stretch goals except for the last one: Blood & Coal. We need to hit $285K to unlock it. That will be a tough climb, but we can do it. We've raised over $23K in overtime, so we can definitely raise $18K more. 

Obviously, we need your help, especially if you have yet to back. Here are some ways to get involved on this wild train ride:
  • Keep spreading the word. People are excited about this bizarre, unprecedented thing that's going on right now with this campaign. People will want to help out just because the situation is so unusual, and because we're a small team with a lot of heart. 
  • If you can afford to get a higher pledge tier, please do. We've worked it out with the dice manufacturer so we can offer a limited number of extra Hargrave House pledge spots, available now. 
  • Join us on The Gauntlet Discord server. The energy is terrific right now (if a little loopy, haha). You can help us keep an eye on the backer train, or just offer words of excitement and encouragement.

I'll remind you that this is one of the best deals going in TTRPGs right now. Here's everything you're getting (not including Blood & Coal, which will just add to these numbers):
  • Core Rules
  • 34 Playbooks 
  • 57 Threats 
  • 9 Masterminds 
  • 50 Unscenes 
  • Hargrave House expansion
  • Shrouded London Locations 
  • Creator's Kit

We might be here for a while; we're going to stick it out as long as we can. With your help, we can get this last stretch goal done.

Thanks!

The Between train is still on the tracks... Will it ever end???
over 1 year ago – Fri, Nov 01, 2024 at 02:10:08 PM

This situation is bizarre and exciting—we're still going. The backer train is 450+ people strong, and we're less that $1500 from unlocking the Unscenes stretch goal! 

We have 7 Hargrave House pledge spots open right now, so if you were thinking about getting those dice, grab one and help us hit this goal!

When does the train come to a stop? Honestly, who knows? Let's just enjoy the ride!

The Between is STILL GOING
over 1 year ago – Fri, Nov 01, 2024 at 07:44:19 AM

Hey, folks. Incredibly, the backer train is still going and the campaign is still active (!!!) We managed to unlock The Volatile overnight, and we're just $1100 away from unlocking Shrouded London. To help get us there, we've opened up a few more Hargrave House pledge spots (our dice manufacturer will hate that un-round number, but they'll get over it, haha).

We're doing this 10 minutes at a time!

Come celebrate this madness with us in The Gauntlet Discord server!

The Between campaign is in OVERTIME
over 1 year ago – Thu, Oct 31, 2024 at 11:02:58 PM

Hey gang! We've been in overtime for the last 2 HOURS. We are desperately trying to keep it alive so we can unlock The Volatile at $250K. We're getting pretty close—about $3700 to go. We opened up a few Hargrave House spots for folks who weren't able to grab one of those before. Join us on The Gauntlet Discord server and help us keep this thing going! 

Let's make a miracle happen tonight!
