Patreon launched – Explorers Welcome

Anthony at Rocket Tortoise Games here. We’ve just launched a Patreon to help fund further development of the Exoshift setting and game. From here on out we’re pursuing more active development in 2022 starting with a new set of playtest rules in January and a new set of miniatures throughout the year.

This means you can access some miniatures in STL format, for printing yourself, but we’ll have options for players to use printing services to get their miniatures. In addition, you can access new artwork, fiction, and in development content.

For this new year, we’re starting off by making the first prototype miniature available, the Scyne Pulsar:

As always, the game rules will remain freely available.
