Survey Supreme! The Good news...
about 1 month ago – Wed, Jun 26, 2024 at 11:50:50 AM

Hello Backers of the Purple Planet Horde!

Here is the good news: Soon you will get ONE SURVEY for your ALL your pledges to the PURPLE PLANET.

Because we are bundling the shipping to coordinate with all the other companies who created PURPLE PLANET materials, you will ONLY GET ONE SURVEY—to rule them all, and in the darkness bind them! ...well, at least to warehouse them all and in the shipment combine them.

Now for the great news: You get ONE, that's right, just ONE shipping fee for all your pledges to these PURPLE PLANET campaigns:
  • GOODMAN GAMES (Base Purple Planet materials), 
  • STUDIO 9 GAMES (Die Robot! and 101 Hex Encounters on the PP), 
  • High Dive Games (Random Acts of Violet), 
  • Horse Shark Games (River of Lies) 
  • Raorgen Games (Memories of the Purple Planet), 
  • Gaming Honors (O' Happy Dagger!), 
  • Purple Sorcerer Games (Wrath of the Orb-Men!)

When you get your survey, look for any upgrades or add-ons you wanted from the massive list connected to all the above campaigns. Enjoy the torrent of goodness you are about to witness—I apologize to your wallets ahead of time. There is a lot of awesome materials coming to help create a fantastic Purple Planet campaign or series of one-offs.

Finally, for the most great news: As far as I know, the target shipping date is still on target for this FALL 2024—and we only had to spellburn 2 Stamina to maintain that!

For the HORDE!

Quick Update
3 months ago – Fri, May 10, 2024 at 11:42:28 AM

Both Booklets are in the proofing stage.

If you want to be part of the editing team, let me know! If you missed getting in on this campaign...go here to get pre-order editions!

The drop-in encounters are in final art stage. 

Proofing will begin in a couple of weeks. For those of you who got these bonus drop-in encounters, we are on course to wrap them up. Ill preview them in the next update!

We are set to print mid summer, and on track to ship in the FALL.

The plan right now is to issue you ONE survey for all your PURPLE PLANET backed campaigns. Goodman Games and all the 3rd party publishers are working with BACKERKIT and a great fulfillment group to make this a simple experience for our backers.

48 Hour Bonus Teaser

For those who did the first 48-hour incentive, you will be getting a PDF adventure (likely the adventure Towers of Dr. Xill—a great drop in for Purple Planet) plus a HI-RES PDF of this EXCLUSIVE purple planet character sheet...check it out here:

A final surprise! Cheddar and Surveys...
5 months ago – Thu, Mar 07, 2024 at 09:47:21 PM

The votes are in...

You did it! Literally, you guys created an encounter. The 4 polls were set up to create a sort of "mad-lib" for a bonus encounter in the "101 Hex Encounters". And here is what we are working with:

  • An encounter with a very realistic humanoid android with a very bad temper (Roy Batty) and no love for humanoids. They are roaming the wastes of the Purple Planet with access to a precious water supply. In the encounter the android skip the odd numbers in the dice chain when adding or subtracting 1D. And the encounter will be designed to be a little beefy (1 hour).

Thank you for helping make this an amazing campaign. Your awesomeness makes me want to bedazzle the heck out of these two great little books for the purple planet.

Next up

Backerkit will do the "cheddar" collection for your pledge level. After that look to see a survey and make sure you got all the goodies you wanted. Then, I'm jumping into the creative cave!

So mount up and get ready to ride... (sample rough portion from "Die, Robot")




Hunger on the purple planet...
5 months ago – Mon, Mar 04, 2024 at 10:41:05 AM

Finding food and water on the purple planet builds character, and sometimes kills it.

But drive those fears out! For we have entered the final countdown. And now, we look upon what we have reaped and almost attained. There are mini-adventure (drop-in encounters) under construction. These are 1-sheets (double sided) color printed on premium stock. 

But a question remains....(grab your pencils—iIt's poll time!)



Celebrating the "Days of the Joyous"!
5 months ago – Sat, Feb 24, 2024 at 11:07:21 PM

Before the Purple Planet fell into ruin...

It is said the citizens celebrated the Days of the Joyous each year, at this time. And we are doing the same! Why? Because we unlocked TWO achievements with 500 backers:

  • The Bigger the Horder: For every 100 backers in this campaign, we are adding a bonus encounter to the 101 Hex Encounter booklet! This will included added art from DCC RPG artist C. Aaron Kreader. At this time we have added 5 to the booklet! That's 106 Hex Encounters and counting!

  • 500 backers: "Die, Robot!" and "101 Hex Encounters" will be printed on all premium stock!

Did you know?

During the Days of the Joyous Kith played games. Rumor has it a game much like DCC RPG was a favorite. And every table had its OWN house rules. What is your favorite DCC house rule? Rock that poll! Yeah I know, get out a magnifying glass to see these!
