Hi there! Dan here,

So I may have paid extra attention to the character sheet and did some last minute rules tweaks that has delayed layout. As I said in a previous devlog this will not delay the release of Beneath Twisted Earth; however, it will require some evasive maneuvers. The paid version of BTE will be taking a bit longer. The layout need extra time and we're working up still more art (seriously, it's good, in-universe stuff). That said, we will be moving forward with releasing a version of the game next week.

It has always been my intent to release three versions of BTE, a Deluxe, Standard, and Free version. Now before you go thinking we'll be locking any game content behind a paywall, don't. The Free Version of BTE will be the full game available in a hyperlinked PDF available for download. That said, it will be bare bones. Art, and layout have been stripped out, and it's pretty much just the rules. That said, anyone who doesn't have the scratch or wants to try it out will always be welcome to download and play for free. I would rather you get something out of the game, than nothing. Should you decide you like this version enough that you want to support Cloudshore Games for future projects, we would ask that when they release in August that you consider purchasing the Standard or Deluxe Editions.

The Standard Version of BTE will be the fully laid out PDF with art, and maybe some secrets tucked here and there (no rules, just something fun for the observant/determined.)

The Deluxe Version will be offered on DriveThruRPG, and will be an 8.5x11 print copy of the game. This will be for those of you who really enjoy the game and decide you want it on your shelf next to Mekton and Lancer (maybe even Jovian Chronicles!)

For those of you following the project we hope that this will still prove to be exciting news! You get to download the game soon, FOR FREE! As another preview for the game, I've included some images of the character sheet. 

Beneath Twisted Earth Free Version will be releasing July 28th!

Thank you again for your interest, and I look forward to seeing you at release!
