A Cover of Something ...


You may know, that I tend to start with the cover. So, here is a cover of something I started to work on ...


ATTENTION! Please note, that the "BUY NOW" button below is NOT for the upcoming Companion but for the original "A Fistful of Darkness". Still figuring out generic messages to followers and I though the aFoD-crowd but like to know about the upcoming companion.
Sorry for the confusion. I you bought the original game twice by accident, please let me know and we will find a way.

Hi, I was one of the "not reading everything properly" people and bought the game the second time. The first time was the version included in a charity bundle, so I decided to leave it at that. I don't want a refund, but thanks for adding the disclaimer. For other distracted readers like me. ;-)

Terribly sorry! Arrg. Maybe you could send my a reminder when the companion is done and we can work something out.

In the heat of the moment, this setup seems to be a bit misleading :D at first glance, I thought I could buy the Companion right here and now (yeah, I know, one should properly read everything of course ^^). But that's also a known problem on itch.io, sometimes it's not easily visible that you own something already, even on the check-out page, it doesn't tell you.

(it won't let me attach a screenshot, but it's not really necessary, since everybody can see the "Buy" button right below the cover)

oh, yes, you're right. Arrg. Sorry for the confusion. I will try to edit the post and add a disclaimer. Did you buy the main book twice and need a re-fund?

sounds good

Thanks for the feedback! I will do my very best!

Every news about aFoD is welcome.

PS unrelated: I'm wondering about this thing: (probably) the game was somewhat limited in its spreading because it was released as an add-on to BitD. Of course, it's already a big book, however is painful to not having  a complete game, a complete book to skim thru. I saw lot of BitD based games pop-out in those years, so it could be a nice gift to have a "redux" version incorporating the missing rules.
Do you think there's still interest into this game to justify this dream?

Hey, great to hear from you. We'll see how long it will take to make this thing. After playing Hard West 2 I plan to re-play Hard West 1 and the soundtrack alone is a good inspiration.

Regarding full book: Well, maybe yes but it's really very unlikely. Working (on and off) and 4-5 different projects right now and with day job and family I don't want you to get your hopes up too high.

Actually, it's really hard for me to say if there is interest in the full book, because I don't get much feedback about aFoD. I search from time to time on the blades discord and twitter but there are (from my point of view) little visible plays. The last surveys had 3 participants, so it's really difficult to say.

I'm surprised as well that this game hasn't gotten as much attention as it should. I ran a short campaign over a year ago but planning on starting a new campaign with a new group next year. I didn't realize there were rules and such missing. I thought the PDFs were pretty inclusive and really enjoyed the assets that were shared back during its release window.  Either way, any additional elements added I'm always down for and will support.  Thanks for a great game
