Rewards Update Summary

• $20 Reward Level: Now you get not 1, but 2 Serf Pro Dice, and can choose 1 of 3 Savage Worlds Character Asset Modules: Deadlands Reloaded, Hell on Earth Reloaded, and The Savage World of Solomon Kane. And, for this level only, International Shipping is being reduced to $5. This is in addition to everything you get at the $10 level.

Stretch Goals

Let's make these final few days really count! Let's talk Stretch Goals:

• At $4,500: We will work on being able to print characters onto good old paper so that they resemble the Savage Worlds character sheets. This will be great for anyone looking to make up characters for a one-shot or a convention game.
• At $5,500: We will have themed digital character sheets for our Optimized Mobile Clients. Making a Deadlands Character? Then give your digital character sheet the Deadlands look and feel you expect. Digital Themes will come as apart of the appropriate module once they're available.

These are features that have been brought up previously on the project; but now we're getting serious about them. Get us to those levels and we'll make them happen all the sooner.

Introduction

Hello Kickstarters! At Serf Productions we are very pleased to be launching our very first Kickstarter project. Savage Outfitter is a digital tools platform for the Savage Worlds pen and paper role-playing game.

While most tools for tabletop role-playing stop at character creation, Savage Outfitter has you supported all the way. Creating, updating, and advancing characters; managing custom assets (hindrances, edges, gear, etc.); finding premium and fan assets; and tracking your status during play are all supported by Savage Outfitter. With all of your data stored in the Cloud, you can create and update your character wherever you want and she’ll be ready to go on any device you bring to the table.

Help us turn this product into a reality and become a backer today.

About Us

Serf Productions is a digital entertainment company committed to the idea of producing Open Source gaming products. Savage Outfitter is our first foray into the gaming industry; before this, most of us have been working in the public sector developing a wide range of applications for a variety of customers. We’ve done front-end, back-end, middleware, cloud computing and a variety of other things that we won’t bore you with. But now we’re stepping out on our own and creating something that we’d personally like to see on the market: digital tools for tabletop role playing games done right.

Savage Worlds

If you’re not already familiar with Savage Worlds, we highly suggest you check it out. It’s an award-winning role playing game system brought to us by Pinnacle Entertainment that allows you to take on the role of heroes in any setting you can imagine. Sci-Fi to Fantasy, historical or modern; several high quality settings and modules have been published, including: Deadlands Reloaded, Sundered Skies, Slipstream, and several others. Here is a more complete list of published settings.

Savage Outfitter

As a Digital Tools Platform, Savage Outfitter won’t just be one product; but multiple products designed to work together seamlessly. The website will provide access to anyone with a modern web browser. Native Android™ and iOS™ clients will provide users of those platforms with a convenient means to access all of their information at the table. The website and mobile clients will all be cloud-enabled; empowering users to create characters at a desktop computer and use their smartphone or tablet at the gaming table. The reverse is also be true in that you can create or update characters on a mobile device and see those changes on your desktop. For a more comprehensive look at these features, check out our Savage Outfitter website for yourself.

Why Kickstarter?

We’ve come to Kickstarter because we really love the whole idea of everyday people supporting each other to fulfill their dreams. An entire community devoted to supporting inspiring projects opens up so many opportunities for creative people everywhere.

But more specifically, we've come to Kickstarter because we need funding to be able to develop optimized clients for iOS™ - Apple’s platform for the iPhone™, iPodTouch™, and iPad™. Apple™ is a bit picky about which systems you can use to develop an iOS App on; so we need a new development computer. We also need to pay for development fees and test devices.

We already have old and new Android™ phones and tablets, including the original Droid, the Galaxy Nexus, the Asus eee Transformer, and a Nook Color™. We also have several development computers running Linux and Windows; and our website is already hosted in the Cloud.

Our Process

At Serf Productions, we believe in the ideas of Open Source Software and “Release early, Release Often”. As such users will see the fruits of our labor quickly and everyone can see exactly where we are in the project at any given time. Users will be able to enjoy features as we finish them and provide feedback, enabling us to focus on providing only the features that the community actually needs.

Conclusion

At Serf Productions, we are all very excited about this project and we hope that you are as well. Remember, unless we meet our minimum funding requirements we won’t get anything at all; and neither will you... Well, at least as far as the rewards are concerned. We plan on soldiering on if we don’t get funded, even though it'll take longer to realize the whole vision.
