We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on July 16, 2012.

Skipped Right to 70%!

Update #2 · Jun 11, 2012 · comment

As some gnome once said: "I'm a monster, RAWR!"

We were planning on making an announcement in a few days or a week, when the Midgard Bestiary for 4E D&D hit the 50% mark--well, that plan is RIGHT OUT THE WINDOW, and the Open Design crew could not be happier!

The Bestiary stands at 70% of its goal right now, thanks to one big backer and many smaller (and yet still vital) pledges! THANK YOU ALL. We're way ahead of the plan, and yes, we can dream about additional rewards and stretch goals, including a Level 18 playtester scenario and another backer reward under discussion.

More previews are coming later in the week, with art!
