:frogsiren: Print run number two (the big one) is officially underway! :frogsiren:

All payments have finally cleared with the overseas partners, and the factories are beginning their production. I'll be getting the extra manual booklets via air as soon as they're complete, and I'll mail them out for free to everyone that's already ordered once they come in (even internationally).

Now it's time to get more serious about getting the game in reviewers' hands once the manuals are in, and then I finally need to finish planning out videos and kickstarter/advertising


Vvv:
This makes me genuinely happy, I'm so thrilled at all of the awesome responses that the game's been getting :dance:

So I'm late on reporting this, but I got my copy a week or so after I ordered in late September. Played through the 2-player scenarios with my wife in early October and it was a lot of fun. She's not really a dice game person and would never touch any P&P game, but she liked the simplicity of this one and we both really enjoyed it. Balance was good too - enough to feel dangerous but winnable even though neither of us had played the game before. Definitely worth my :20bux: and I'm looking forward to giving some of the bigger 3/4 person scenarios a shot at some point.

It's been a long road, but there's light at the end of the tunnel! The booklets also arrived - I added them to the existing copies of the game that are already stateside, and on Wednesday I'll be mailing booklets out to everyone that already ordered a copy.

I also threw together a more easily printable version of the rulebook in case anyone wants to make extra copies, https://www.buddingheroes.com/pdf/rulebook-print.pdf

Crossposting here in case anyone has this thread bookmarked but not the TG design one: I'm working on some of the video scripts, and input is certainly encouraged:

Sentient Data posted:

I'm working on the script for the intro/pitch video for Budding Heroes, and I want to see if anyone has any thoughts before I give it the final pass and begin recording. When read aloud with pauses, it should be just about 4~5 minutes which I think is the sweet spot.
(Full script in the quoted post)


Also, update: 2 full pallets of the game have successfully arrived! All the tarriff/customs stuff going on had me worried, not to mention that huge capsized cargo ship (which the games could have 100% been on since the timing was perfect), but I don't need to sweat it any longer. The design/procurement part is officially done (for now), so now it's just marketing/fulfillment time

If anyone wants a physical manual once they're printed, just shoot me a PM and I'll pop it in the main - a stamp or two should cover it within the States, so NBD (Sorry to any international orderers until I have them in hand).

Hey, I never got this, and still would like to. PMed in September.

Sorry, must have gotten lost in the shuffle. I'll get yours sent out and check if any others are missing tracking info

E: after researching it, there were a few orders that never updated. I'll get all those manuals sent out again tomorrow afternoon, and as an apology for the delay, I'll also include another copy of the game to give out to a friend or whatever

Shenanigans!
Did anyone manage to make any tutorial or gameplay videos? A brief search through Youtube came up short.

Not yet, I couldn't get interest from the gameplay channels I knew of and I didn't have the money to bribe them or commission anyone else so I basically slammed hard into a brick wall

The fact that you asked just now is super meaningful to me, so thank you. I'll try taking another stab at the script
