LOOM: Portent of the Vale - Kickstarter Pre-Launch Page & Trailer First Look!
🕑 Added 2023-05-01 16:48:45 +0000 UTCWelcome, Order of Shieldice! I hope you're all well and building worlds!
You are the very first people to see the trailer for Shieldice Studio's next Kickstarter, a somewhat different project to the previous three. This was my first time ever using After Effects, so let me know what you think of the trailer in the comments (a bit janky in places I think 😂).
CLICK HERE TO BE NOTIFIED ON LAUNCH!
About the Campaign:
> 'LOOM' is a print and play fantasy adventure game. Using a map and character sheet, alongside procedurally generated paragraphs, you will explore a dark and twisted world of fantastical horror. Weave your own story as you play, find rare items, uncover hidden secrets, and use your 'Command List' to interact with the world. With nothing more than playing cards, dice and a pencil, you will generate and play through a story of longing, of defeat, and of a broken world. Deadly foes await, cosmic gods scheme, and the Vale darkens...
> 'LORE: the World of Loom' is an addition to the game of LOOM, and dives into the dark details of the setting, offering a deeper knowledge to the player. 'LORE' also works as an in depth, stand-alone System Neutral Setting for anyone wishing to play their favourite fantasy roleplaying games within the world of LOOM!
> 'LOOM' has been birthed from many inspirations, especially 'choose your own adventure' style fiction, old-school board games, and video games... Rainy afternoons in England, playing DungeonQuest, back in the early 90s. Rushing home from school for movie nights, snacking on popcorn whilst watching Sir John Boorman's Excalibur on VHS. Scribbling on pieces of paper, and rolling dice excitedly, after finding a copy of Starship Traveller in the attic, a Fighting Fantasy game-book. Dusting off an old Commodore 64, or the ZX Spectrum, to play ZORK and Halls of the Things with friends on the weekend.

COMING SOON: I have some exciting world-building tools underway that were supposed to be released April, but I'm perfecting and tweaking them, so keep an eye out! They'll be dropping here very soon!
Thanks again to each and every one of you for your continued support. Patreon and Kickstarter have allowed me to spend much more time working on the things I love. For that, I'll be forever grateful.
