How To Get A Head In Fetch Quest! [Monday Meeting Notes]

Monday Meeting, News

This time, I’m not going to fling my highfalutin verbiage at you praising Fetch Quest, our newest and ongoing Kickstarter campaign. I’m going to let these folks do it!

Our very first link is from Geek City USA and takes you to their How To Play vid:

Next, our old friends at Geek & Sundry gave us a nice wag of the tail:

Egg Embry called out Fetch Quest in a post about All-Ages Games Kickstarters on the Tessera Guild website:

We’re third in their list, I think, so go ahead and scroll down!

Professor Thorgi gave Fetch Quest the spotlight on his YouTube show, Kick It:

And our latest is an interview with creator Eddy Webb on FlamesRising:

Hope you’ll check out these multi-media plaudits for Eddy’s wee little card game set in the Realms of Pugmire. It’s really great to see so many folks express interest and spread the word about it. We hope you can too!

We added an additional step to our standard book creation process for Scion Origin, as we’re now doing a read-through with all of the Onyx Path Monday Meeting crew. This is so that we have a range of reactions to judge how the book reads the first time through, as well as to get the impressions of the non-game designers.

I’ve read through it enough times to start missing things, since I’ve seen the material in multiple configurations and am mentally filling in gaps based on those earlier readings.

Knowing this, and figuring that there are several folks in the approval queue who might be in the same boat, I asked our Monday Meeters to give it a look-see. Because it’s THE first of the Storypath powered books to come out, we’re taking the time to get Scion Origin as tight as possible before sending out the Backer PDFs.

If you haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet, my interview with Dixie and Matthew on the Onyx Pathcast went live on Friday, and listening to it over the weekend, I was actually surprised at how much ground we covered. Early days at White Wolf and freelancing art for Magic: the Gathering, and even back to my TV graphics-guy days, right through to CCP and Onyx Path‘s origins and what the future holds.

Both of them had some fun questions, and a couple of tough ones, that let me go into more details than maybe anybody wants to hear about. Like what I’m looking for in game pitches and why a couple of them worked, my continuing hatred of “Predator’s Taint”, and a whole bunch of questions from these Comments and elsewhere.

If you want any follow-up on the responses, please jump right in and ask in the Comments for this post!

Matthew even had a word association test thingee that I stumbled through. And no, if you already listened, my response of “Jackass” to one person’s name was more with an exasperated sigh than with any ill feelings. 🙂 For Matthew, I never did get out the word I immediately thought of, which was “posh”, because all my mind went to was “prat”…which is a totally different word and not what came to mind first. It just stuck there waiting to be said, and I really didn’t want to mess up UK slang.

It was a lot of fun, they were both delightful, although I did miss Eddy as we’ve done the interview thing so many times together. Even though we kidded about him still being tied up in the cupboard, it was really that we wanted interviewers that hadn’t heard all my stories before so their questions would come from genuine interest. Which was precisely why he recused himself.

Hope you folks enjoy it too – I just can’t ever tell if anything I’m saying is actually of interest to folks. I mean, I know I find it interesting, just not if anyone else will!

This week, they’re doing a look at Vampire: The Requiem, which should be fascinating, so check it out on PodBean here, or anywhere you download your podcasts: https://onyxpathcast.podbean.com/

Many Worlds, One Path!

BLURBS!

KICKSTARTER:

Fetch Quest, the adventure card game set in the Realms of Pugmire funded in under a day, and now we’re over 250% funded and have added a group of six cats from the Monarchies of Mau to the game as alternative adventurers via Stretch Goals!



This is definitely a game that needs to be spread by word of mouth, so please let your friends and family know about this game of good dogs (and cats!) out to fetch what Man has left behind!

ELECTRONIC GAMING:

As we find ways to enable our community to more easily play our games, the Onyx Dice Rolling App is now live! Our dev team has been doing updates since we launched based on the excellent use-case comments by our community, and this thing is both rolling and rocking!
