Initially there was not a plan to compensate (when the Jam started) because the combined book was a free download on itch.io. Then as it picked up steam, we started charging for the original itch copy to itchfund a remastered version (paying artists and such) - contributors were notified and the plan still was not to compensate and as soon as we raised funds to pay the artists, it would be free again. However, folks really started liking it and we decided to kickstart this big remaster... we reached out to everyone and offered $50 (initially) OR a contributor copy of the book OR both. Most opted for the book but a few wanted to be paid. We haven't paid out yet but the plan is to get folk paid and their books once production is paid for. i think being upfront with your plan is the best bet. For us, the plan was never to pay as it was billed as a community project - however as it scaled we felt it was right and proper to pay folks for their amazing work!
I am a Kickstarter Backer. It would be super helpful if you could include each item "card" as a separate image file in a folder. I really appreciate what you have done with VTT support! But without the item cards as separate image files it makes this hard to use on VTT. I can tell that each separate card for each item must be its own file somewhere because you can highlight and then copy and then export as a jpg meaning that each item must be its own jpg somewhere used to make the A4 "Item Card Sheets" PDF. Any help uploading these individual image files for VTT users would be super cool and much appreciated. TIA!
hey I backed this item but I never got my files. The link you guys sent for claiming keys does not work for eme even tough I already added my email as a secondary here on itch. Could you please help me to get access to the files, I’m looking forward to play it. Thanks in advance
The "deluxe edition" campaign produced a physical book, which isn't available here. But there is more art and the contents arranged and connected for better flow.
"Why are we funding it then? Well, this project is the result of a game jam with 43 entries, all with their own flavor and style but when put together, though the content is there, lacks a cohesive flow and design. This campaign will reformat and elevate the project to new heights! We have teamed up with a group of amazing artists to bring you some of the greatest artwork in the industry, and as a dream project, we are so excited to see it come to life!"
I have 4 pre-generated characters I downloaded from you from somewhere before. The file was named "Tomb of a Thousand Doors [Pre-Generated Characters].pdf"
I can't seem to find it in the new downloads you just posted.

I bought the mausritter bundle. Is this included in it or is it an older version included?
It looks like the map for the Temple of Emmental Evil might be numbered incorrectly. Is there any collection of errata for this module?
Woah! Good catch! Edited it! Luckily it goes off to print later this week!
How were the jam writers compensated for their published entries? I’m thinking of running something similar and wanted an insight into the process.

Nice one. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

149mb? Is an optimized and reduced version possible?
Pardon me, but what's the difference between the previous version and that one?
