Things to fix next kickstarter

Mistakes I Made This Last Kickstarter

So the Mars kickstarter didn't make it, although it came close and got a bunch of backers. I'm going to make a few changes and try again next year. I started realizing mistakes I had made after the first week, and I'm not going to do that again, I hope.

I'm still alive

Hello everyone, sorry I missed last week. Its been a bit crazy over here trying to get the word out about the Mars Kickstarter, which has 6 days left if you haven't pledged already.


I was going to have some fiction for you today, but its not finished yet. I will have it for you next week, so look forward to that.


I guess there isn't really much to this entry.
Oh I did a Q&A for Mars that you can now read if you missed it.

Otherwise... yeah, nothing much today. Once the kickstarter is over I will be back to more interesting updates.

As I mentioned before, I had planned to announce my third game about now, and with Halloween tomorrow this seems as good a time as ever.

New Rules for Mars

As you might expect there are a number of new rules in Mars. Some will be new upgrades, some will be only for vehicles and mecha, but a few are new rules that are universal. They apply to just about everyone and should even be included in regular Robotic Age games.

The aliens of Directive: Invasion!

The galaxy holds countless worlds full of life, but there are only a dozen species that are capable of interstellar travel. Most species have trouble understanding their own cultural differences, let alone those from a completely different world. Because of this xenophobia, each species knows very little about each other and prefers to keep it that way.
