Smoke Test Error
5 months ago – Thu, Jan 08, 2026 at 04:21:52 AM

Please DO NOT fill out the Backerkit Pledge Manager yet.

So with the whirlwind that is my brain right now, I missed adding the option for with or without holes. I have reached out for help with this and will post again when things are ready.

Smoke Test Sent!
5 months ago – Wed, Jan 07, 2026 at 06:09:17 AM

Hello trusty backers!

The Pledge Manager smoke test has gone out to a small percentage of the backers. 

If you received it, please fill it out and make your selections. You will NOT be billed until mid-February for any add-ons and shipping. Once about 80% of the smoke test backers fill out the pledge manager, I will send it out to everyone else.

Don't forget the Time Tablez! 

I have limited these to 480 that can be purchased. After the survey has gone out to all backers, I will open up the late pledge store, and other people will have access to the watch. But I want you to have first dibs.

If you run into any problems, email me at brian at creaturecuration dot com.

Hope you have an amazing day!
Brian

A Month Lost
5 months ago – Tue, Dec 30, 2025 at 06:08:08 AM

Hello trusty backers, 

I am farther behind than I had hoped to be at this point in the project. On top of the holidays, I've had some struggles over the past month that have greatly reduced my productivity. I am going through an unexpected divorce. 

Yesterday I went to therapy for the first time, and then filed the divorce paperwork to get things moving. Submitting the papers was surprisingly cathartic. 

Today I am back to working on the Crew Member manual. 

In January, I will get the pledge manager up and running. One of the new items that I will be adding to the pledge manager is a Vast Grimm Time Tablez! I have always wanted my own swatch-style watches. Hopefully, you will dig it as much as I do.

I apologize for the slight delay in this project. I will be getting it back on track. 

Hope you have an adventurous and wonderful New Year's!
Brian

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

Hello my LEGION! 

Thank you so much for helping make Vast Grimm Escaping Stasis a success! 

Over the next two months, I will be finalizing all of the items for the campaign to get them ready for production. I am going to keep late pledges open here on Kickstarter for a little while to see if we can hit that $54k stretch goal. 

Then sometime in December, I will open the pledge manager on Backerkit. This will allow me to gauge the quantities I need to print for all of the items. I don't plan to charge for any add-ons from the Pledge Manager until January, and I'll be sure to give everyone a 2-week heads-up before I do. 

Along the way, I will be posting status updates here and on my Patreon (there is a free tier for many of the updates). 

If you want to get in touch with me directly, the place I am most active is The Grimm Place discord.

A Couple of Places I Will Be

Next weekend I will be at Mythic Con in Charlotte, NC.
2 weeks after that, I will be at PAX Unplugged in Philly. 

If you are going to be at either of those events, please comment below! I'd love to see some of you out there.

Projects & People We Love

With the continued updates, I want to make sure and share some other projects that are currently live.

Gunz 'n' Ammo, Supplement & Adventure is by Malicat, a fan favorite Vast Grimm N.O. (GM) at many conventions. It also has additional art by Gaffy. Get ready to load up the Legionnaires with expanded weapons, gear, and starship upgrades. The zine includes the adventure Deal with the Devil, which is certain to be filled with the lethality Malicat is known for :) Back it here.

If you play Pirate Borg, you should check out this double feature stacked with 2 adventures. Go back it now to help him reach his funding goal.

Again, thank you so much for being a part of this and making it successful!

New Stretch Goal – The Count Down is On!
7 months ago – Mon, Oct 27, 2025 at 07:22:04 AM

Hello trusty backers! 

The campaign will be coming to a close in about 80 hours, and we are inching closer to unlocking some new stretch goals! I have added a Stretch Goal Guide image to the top of the page to better understand what comes with each pledge level.

As you can see above, I have added the Printed Adventure Generator Zine! Should we hit $48k, this will be included with the Legionnaire and All-In pledge level for free. It will also become available as an add-on in the pledge manager. 

We are awfully close to unlocking the Zac Goins adventure generator, which will bump it from 5 guest writers to 6! 

Don't forget, we also have the Double Stretch Goal coming up when we hit $50k.

Now's the time to help spread the infection! Let your friends know the clock is ticking to back the campaign. With your help, we will crush these next few stretch goals.

Thursday Interview

I will be live on Dungeons and Dyslexia this Thursday at 3 pm (eastern). Be sure to tune in and jump into the chat with any last-minute questions you have.

Ok, that's it for this transmission. Keep an eye on the Comments on the main campaign page and the Discord where I will post little bits of news between official updates!
