Hello, everyone!
I hope all is well! Time for an update :)
The art and maps are well under way and in the final stretch. We have some art for the higher levels added to go. Our cartographer, Wonkee, is busy filling in the amazing maps with the dungeon assets! Once all of that is done, we will run the book through layout! Then, the PDFs and printing! We use a US printer, so that does not take too long to get the books to our hands.
Backerkit will go out mid to the end of the month. Since postal rates are so volatile, we decided to hold off until we were as close to shipping as possible. When that comes out, it will be plastered all over this page, so do not worry about missing out!
With that being said, thank you again for being a part of this! We cannot wait until you are all out in the wild world generating your own dungeons!
Until next time, here is some awesome eye candy from the art team!
All the best,
Ben Barsh

Hello, friends!
I just wanted to do a little post about what we have been up to!
The art and map commissions are all set for the book. In the next month, we will have a flood of art and maps to share as we head towards the finish line.
Since the book is considered a generator, most of the art pieces will correlate to the sample dungeons. We worked with our fantastic art team to make sure these pieces can still be shown to your table in the event that your dungeon does not look exactly like the sample dungeon provided but is still similar in nature (being it is still a dungeon).
The maps will obviously both have the populated and unpopulated versions with asset folders as add-ons.
The other major update is Backerkit. There really is no rush with this one and because of that, we have put our efforts into getting all the commission work to our team. Still we do not want to keep you waiting, so completing that is next on our list :)
That is all for now! I will update again once Backerkit is released to you all!
Good or Evil Commander Within the Dungeon...
All the best,
Ben Barsh

Hey, friends!
After our Kickstarters, we generally include our recent projects and books on Backerkit. This year, we decided to do a massive sale instead! We are currently running 40% off our products on our website!! Also, our newest campaign book for 5e and B/X is now on the site!
40% Off Sale
We are currently running a 40% off sale on the website! We are clearing out our current inventory to make way for our new products coming in, so this may be the last chance to get a physical copy of Pacesetter Legacy books!
Path of the Vanished is now available for purchase! This is our very first full color hardcover! It is available on the site in 5e and B/X. Many people have emailed us asking to purchase a copy, and now is your chance! We will be selling them for the Kickstarter price. It will increase after this sale!
The discount is automatically applied at checkout, so discount code is necessary! The sale ends June 10th at 11:59 EST, so do not delay! The realm needs you!!

SUCCESS!!

THANK YOU!!
WOW!!
This has been a wild couple of days! That last 48 hour push really propelled this project to a new height! Thank you all very much for allowing this project to come to life.
About 3 years ago, we launched our first Kickstarter as Pacesetter Games. That project rounded up 165 backers. Now, we have more than 1,100 backers for the second time in Pacesetter's history. It is still surreal to me we have grown such an amazing community in such a short time period. This is truly the best community in gaming.
What Now?
Well, the question many ask is... what now? Well, we produce the book! We will be fleshing out each section to be as expansive as possible without being bloated, finish art and maps, and get the books printed!
In about 4-5 weeks, we will be sending out Backerkit. This is where you will pay shipping, confirm your address, and add any add-ons you would like. I'll ping you all when that survey is available to be filled out!
Note: You will be able to change your pledge during Backerkit. If you would like to upgrade from PDF to physical or vice versa, you will have that option.
Add-On News
A fun idea that a wonderful backer had was a pack of map assets that you could use to design your own dungeon map. We have talked to Wonkee, our cartographer, and we decided that we would be interested in moving forward with this. Please let us know in the comments if this is something you would be interested in adding on to your pledge. We will also send some polls out soon gauging interest!
Thank You Part 2!!
Thank you all again. You are truly making our dreams come true. Without you, none of this would be possible. You are quite possibly some of the most heroic adventurers ever known!
We will continue to post updates frequently as we progress through production! See you all real soon!
All the best,
Ben Barsh
Final Stretch Goal Down!!
almost 5 years ago
– Wed, May 26, 2021 at 08:16:14 AM
Hello, friends!
We did it! Our big stretch goal is down! Now that we have raised $30,000 we will add another section to the book for level 10 characters! This section will be complete with dungeon generation charts, a sample dungeon, artwork, and a map! This simply adds even more value to the book for free!
As of now, this is the final stretch goal of the campaign. This is subject to change in the next 12 days; however, we really are in love with where the book is at now.
Thank you all so much for your support! As I have more to share, I will make updates here and on YouTube!
