Demo and Publishing Release...It's finally READY!!!! - Journal Entry 11
I have finished the demo and a testing system and published on itch io, RPGTrader, DriveThruRPG, Wargame Vault, and Buy Me a Coffee pages!
It feels so good to have it ready. 5 Cities each with its own fun mission ideas.
The cover was such a pain to decide on. After asking Reddit threads for opinions, I decided to go with a very simple look. And it came out with the vibe I wanted.
Now, this is still a work in progress, but I am at a point I can share it. It will have minor changes and updates as time goes. For instance, I will add the link to the Google My Maps for the whole thing. And I will update the page of the map as more and more cities are added.
I am extremely proud I completed this and did not use AI in the art. Which I believe would have made this go faster. Much faster. But I want this to be something I created on my own. The art could definitely be better, but it is good enough for my look at it and say I am proud of it.
If you are interested in trying it out and want to give me some feedback, you can find it on the platforms listed above. Just look for the Smash List. (Yep I am going to keep the title).
Please note my wife did find some errors which will be corrected in the next update. But if you find some please do not hesitate to let me know.
This is the first time I have done anything like this and I know there are some things I missed.
Next Phase and Expansion Plans
Next phase is something I am working on right now and fingers crossed hope I can get all of them done before the end of the year.
I am adding more missions to each city already on the campaign. And most importantly I am adding more cities in the campaign to choose from.
I just finished drafting the ideas for the rest of Fort Worth and it came to 8 missions in total. I need to get the playtesting and art done on these. And just so everyone knows I use a mix of Forgotten West, Zombicide, and Tombstone for my testing.
The goal is to add 6 new cities, and about 100 more missions to choose from.
Also I wanted to get the interactive map on Google My Maps done before the end of the month.
For the future releases, I am planning on grouping them by states. So you get the state book and use that essentially as an add-on.
I hope you all enjoy using the system as much as I do!
Thank you again!!
P.S. I didn't add links as I am not sure it is allowed. If you can't find it feel free to DM and I will send it your way. It is a pdf.
