Hey everyone, I'm starting up a Kickstarter as of July 7th, 2014 for a print and play game called Darkfast Dungeons. It will have similar (but streamlined) mechanics to Katana Schoolgirls vs Zombie Furries and Snowball Wars. Here is the teaser trailer. More info on the final Kickstarter video closer to the date the Kickstarter goes live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zs75DH9s32Y&feature=youtu.be

Hooray!!! I'm a backer. I hope I'm the first backer.  I hope that there are many stretch goals ( paper minis, sci-fi mods ... ) and many personalized pledges.

After the Canada Day fireworks I did some quick play testing for the game. Can't wait to get this out. I'm sure it will be released months before the promised release date. I'll update with photos and more once I get home from the cottage. Can't rely on the interwebs here. Some photos on my tumblr page though. okumarts.tumblr.com/post/90557061408/play-testing-darkfast-dungeons

Have you considered using half or even quarter walls to make moving the minis a little easier?

I have tried half sized walls, but I didn't like the look of it myself. I found it hard to figure out the exits/doors. I remember a similar question come up with the gothic dungeon set world works came out with a few years ago. The game will be fully playable with tiles as well and larger rooms can be built if if gets too crowded in there. There is quite a bit of flexibility. Personally I like the claustrophobic nature of narrow halls for the game.

That said, I am going to try to offer a half wall option for the sets. I think it can work if I put my mind to it.

I look forward to what you come up with.

Kinda Sorta... I'm doing layout for some cards right now. The characters are all done, just got to finish up the bad guys tonight. All new character and monster standees, plus there will be cards for the free set so you can use those characters and monsters in the basic game.

interesting. You said: basic game. Do you intend to release DD-addons with new monsters and characters too?

Enpeze, Oh my will there we add-ons and extra sets galore. In fact ONE SET will be Kickstarter Only and then it goes away forever. Wooooo.... And hey, just because everyone here is so amazingly awesome... I'm posting the Kickstarter video on here early. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCPDl2H1tiU

Great video! Thank David. Good Luck! Agreed! (however I'd suggest using still-camera or similar stabilization function to avoid "shaking hands" effects)

Are pledges and strectch goals only downloadable files? I have two ongoing kickstarter projects ( DPG's SoN and lordzsezse's elven tower ) but I can't wait for this.  July 7 here comes exactly in 27 hours.

Yep all downloads.
The video IS a bit shaky. I haven't had much sleep.

I enjoyed the video  I must say that I like the full height walls because they are enclosing and claustrophobic. Makes the dungeon crawl much more immersive IMHO.

NOT final art for the covers.  I AM happy to report that the Kickstarter site is finally together and is almost there. I will crash and sleep on it and then look it over tomorrow. It goes live at midnight (local time) and the Kickstarter will run until August 7th.

Good! Very good!!! More add-ons ( and pledges andstretch goals ) David. I don't know yet rules and game mechanics ( ok perhaps there are some references about "Katana Schoolgirls vs Zombie Furries" ) but potentially, using scenario packs and other expansions this is an endless boardgame. It would be nice if in the scenerio packs there were even 1/3 special paper minis.

Since it looks like we will be without power for another day...

Darkfast Dungeons Kickstarter is now live. It's an old school print and play tabletop game designed to provide a robust dungeon crawl experience in a couple of hours. Print and build as much as you choose.

Made my pledge without looking at the add-ons, had to go back and add them all in.
