I'm running a special promotion for the entirety of November, my birth month. I normally don't celebrate my birthday, but this year for the first time I have an albeit small platform, thanks to my game Home Again. So for the next thirty days, I'm giving you an opportunity to celebrate with me by supporting me or an important cause. And you can do so in a few different ways, no matter your means:
As there are 30 days in November, Home Again will be on sale for 30% off. In addition, I'm releasing 30 free community copies. I have always offered the game for free to people of color, and that will continue to be the case. However, no one has yet to take me up on that offer, so I'm making a more explicit one now. Furthermore, these 30 copies are for anyone who is unable to buy the game. Any copies yet unclaimed after November will remain available.
I also want to use this opportunity to promote causes that are important to me (and hopefully to you too). As my birthday is on the 20th of November, if you show proof this month that you've recently donated at least $20 (full price plus a $5 tip!) to one of the following organizations - or a total of $20 to a combination of them - I'll send you a link to download Home Again for free.
Some of these organizations are local to my own community. If you would rather support a different organization that is local and/or important to you, contact me before making your donation, and we can negotiate. To show proof of donation or inquire about an unlisted org, email me at nellraban@gmail.com.
Lastly, I've separated the playsheets from the rest of the game files for Home Again, and they're now available as a free demo. This is common for other PbtA games, but I just didn't think of it till recently. I also made a small update to the playsheets that corrects the placement of two moves on the Basic moves sheet.
That's it for now. Thanks for being here <3
TL;DR:
During November, celebrate my birthday in one of these ways:
