That's a great idea! I'm also in the process of finishing off the Dungein Bestiary, so there will be more samples to share.
Stay tuned!

After thinking about a bit more - to be fair to everybody, I think entering 5 monsters per person should be the limit. However, I encourage you to make as many as you want, even if you only enter the 5!

Here is some ambient music to either play or illustrate to!

Amazing! We welcome multiple entries, and we can probably figure it out either way.  It might make sense to combine them if you later want to sell/share them as a package, but you also might prefer having them single projects on your page for better exposure, and then a bundle? We are flexible, either way!

Yes, as I was working through the Dungeon Bestiary, and was making dedicated monsters vs just the random tables in the core rules, I realized that having a specific Scar stat for when players have a topple - and then recover, made a lot of sense. I should note that it is a permanent scar for the rest of their lives, as well as the permanent Doom Die that they will have.

I think it adds to the flavor to both the monster and character, and is one less thing that the Doomsayer needs to worry about.

I am always hesitant to add extra rules to the minimalist game, but this seemed like a win-win.

What do you think?

No bother at all! We will make sure you get your prize, regardless of the country you reside in! Glad you joined the jam, and looking forward to your entry!

We will be crowning the winners of the Fun With Fang Adventure Jam during a Livestream on Wednesday, January 21 at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT. Please tune in as we acknowledge all the entries!

We're going to gather the judges up and go through the list of awards - we'll also be highlighting each entry along the way. 

Winners will be announced on a livetream, and we'll follow up with interviews too!

Looks amazing!

Awesome!

Just a reminder that there's just two days to go to add your Fun with Fang Submission!
Take a look at some of the great ones already submitted!

Awesome! I look forward to seeing it!

I look forward to seeing it! Feel free to share on the discord

Hey everyone! With my most recent video, I had a bunch of new entries pop into the Jam. I also anticipate a few more might come on board with my launch of Bug Busters on Kickstarter, and Fang being an add-on. As the goal of this jam was a build community around Fang, I am extending the deadline one last time to be December 21 (Winter Solstice), which seems appropriate!

I recognize that some of you have been super diligent in entering early! I will be sending an extra little something to you in your final package as a way to say thanks!

Thanks again for everyone being part of the Jam!

Garry

Glad it worked out for you!

In case I haven't shared this yet!

I've had a few creators reach out ans ask if the deadline could be extended, and just wanted to gauge your interest in this? 

Ultimately, I want for everybody to create the best adventure possible, and these things can sometimes take time - and life is busy!

As always, I'm happy to answer any questions you have, or support you in any way possible!

Garry

Thanks so much for the kind words! I love your work too!

Looks fun! I can't wait to get it to the table!

This is such a fun concept! I can't wait to run it!

I'm glad you like what you see thus far!

If it is more sandbox-y with a map and the players just bounce around in the location - I think that is absolutely fine! In fact, that is always my preference for an adventure design. You just create a scenario with cool locations and NPCs, and the adventure takes care of itself!

The mother load! I wish I had found these before I made Fang!

I will be doing a livestream FAQ Friday, April 25 at 9pm EST for anybody who wants to ask questions about the Fun With Fang Adventure Jam, or just hang out!

Of course! You can buy it from my store here: https://dieku.myshopify.com/

(Keep in mind that all entries in the jam will also receive 2 physical copies of the booklet

Welcome to the Jam, and thanks for joining! I look forward to seeing your adventure! Let me know if you need anything, or have questions! 

Hmmm... Im not sure of POD. I've successfully used Mixam for testing small print runs with that landscape format. I can also share my printing specs for the original FANG booklet, which has slightly thicker matte paper that was done on an offset printer (not a digital printer).

Would it be helpful to do a blog post with all the details? I was also thinking of doing a livestream where folks can hop on and ask questions in the near future.

Let me know!

The Third-party license  has this:

The real world can be dark, depressing, and cruel. While we encourage creating difficult challenges for characters, please keep in mind that the world of Fang is based upon the innocence and simplicity of children books – and should remain that way. The setting also pays immense homage to the beautiful Swedish people for their contributions to the world and all references should be done with utmost respect.

So, this is more like the antithesis of Mork Borg.

A nice little review from the good folks over at Roll 4 Initiative!

It's a digital PDF submission, but you are welcomed to do anything you want with it, including printing it at some point in the future.

The templates are just there to assist folks if they are stuck, and you do not have to use any of them as part of the project. This is your own creation! The only request I have is to keep it "booklet sized, and horizontal," which is 8.5"wide X 5.5" high. The decision behind that request is so that it all matches with other adventures, and I also hope people do illustrations that span the entire 2-page spread - which was part of the fun of the original booklet. 

I hope that helps!

I thought many might find this deep dive into MCM illustration interesting for your projects!
