Two outcasts vs. an army of undead that can embody your greatest fears, controlled by a force nobody can identify. The only answers lie in a book written by a madman.

Check out our Kickstarter page and get yourself a copy of the epic adventure Dark & Zarus in Ebook, paperback or hardcover!

We had to make a bunch of parody posters as wall decor for the background of scenes in our scifi comedy pilot The Box. This one by Tom Campana was one of my favorites.

I think this would make a pretty awesome crew to protect humanity with.

Anyone else have favorite props from your own productions?

I have learned, knowing as many artists as I do, that whenever somebody asks me if I have five minutes to stand against a white wall and make specific expressions, it is always worthwhile.

@laurencipollo.bsky.social makes a good alien for sure.

Every fantasy book is better when you have a fantasy map to follow along with, right? Well good news! We're almost halfway to our next stretch goal, which will mean including a Map of the Realm in Dark & Zarus! Join our adventure now and help us get there!

What a first day! Our fantasy novel Dark & Zarus launched on Kickstarter yesterday and exceeded our initial goal in under five hours! Now, the first of our stretch goals will mean digging back into our formatted book files but it'll be well worth it... (1/2)

Oh thanks for the heads up! We might be able to still add that as an option.

For sure! You can ask after the campaign to not have us ship the hardcover.

Or if you'd rather, you can order the paperback tier and add the Parallax trilogy as an add-on before check out.

Do either of those solutions work? Let me know if I'm misunderstanding!

Sneak peak of what I've been working on. Coming to you this week! If you're not following the campaign yet, and you love D&D, Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings, the link is in my bio.

So excited to bring this to all of you! We've been working on it forever. And it's really good.

Mention of a "Bandit Town" had an allure, I suppose. Also: fewer cultists down here.

...the cure for her were-tigerism. Once there, we ran into a Sand Monster of some sort who frightened and blinded most of us, before we got it together and turned it into mud.

Anyway, all of that makes sense 60 hours in.

Anyone else have favorite sessions or games from recent memory?
