It’s that time of year again, where we honor our GMs and the effort they put into making our gaming experiences as awesome as possible. I, myself, have had the honor of running several games for new and old fans alike, but I always like to play in games where the GM is just spot on with their stories and able to handle my craziness. This is the perfect time to pick up a new game, as well, in order to continue the tradition.

Third Eye Games is taking part in this as well, so you can get any of our PDFs at 25% off until March 7th by clicking on the banner below. You can still get print version of our games from our 3EG Online Store.

Store Locator Launched

firstoni — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 02:36:49 +0000

Those regular visitors to Third Eye Games will notice a new addition to the menu… the Store Locator. We’re happy to take your order here at our online store, but we also hope to be able to let you all know places where you can go to get your hands on our products, from Apocalypse Prevention, Inc. to Wu Xing: The Ninja Crusade to Part-Time Gods.

To the Fans

What we need from you is to tell us the stores in your area that are carrying any Third Eye Game product, especially if it’s where you bought it… especially if you play the game there. We are asking you, the fans, to help us increase our exposure yes, but also to help us point other potential customers to your favorite local FLGS! We need to keep gaming stores alive and things like this are hopefully part of that!

Send me an e-mail at eloy@thirdeyegames.net with any Names, Addresses and other info for these FLGSs.

To Retailers

We want to drive business your way. The only way we can do that is if you let us know that you’re carrying our products. Even if you are only carrying one gameline, we’ll put you on the list and customers from everywhere will know that you’re the place to pick up their favorite games. So let’s help each other.

Don’t forget, as well, that Third Eye Games is a member of the Bits-And-Mortar program, so any print copy of a book bought at a store is eligible for a free companion PDF as well. More info here:

Demon-Ninja-Gods (Future Releases)

firstoni — Wed, 10 Aug 2011 01:57:59 +0000

Oh what good times were had at GenCon 2011! One of the best parts, for me, was the small gathering of fans that came to my Demon-Ninja-Gods Panel. In this panel, got to talk about the 3 gamelines that already exist, the sourcebooks coming for each one and also the new games that are coming in the next year (if i have anything to say about it). Thank you to those that came, but it’s time to make the info public for everyone now! Below are the highlights of the panel:

Apocalypse Prevention, Inc.

My very first gameline still has a really loyal fanbase and i can’t thank them enough. We talked a little bit about what the newest sourcebook, Demon Codex: Spectrals, adds to to the game and then went on to what will be next. The fans voted for it and we deliver. Next books are API Worldwide: South America, Demon Codex: Burners and then API Worldwide: Japan (which means kappas!).

Also, there was quite the buzz about API Savage World Edition. We are simply waiting for a few approvals from Pinnacle and then we’d begin layout. Our playtesters (and those that played in our GenCon 2011 game during Savage Saturday Night) had a ball with the rules changes we have made, so we’re excited to get it out there! It is very much a mix of Savage Worlds and Apocalypse Prevention, Inc., reflecting both equally.

Wu Xing: The Ninja Crusade

We talked a bit about the Land of Seed and Blossom sourcebook, which will add 7 additional clans to the game! Which is absolutely awesome! Then we talked about the coming books afterword: Wu Xing: Truth and Lies (detailing the Hidden Strands of Fate and the Will of Iron) and Wu Xing: Land of Crashing Waves (with a lot more information on the Island nations and their ninja).

The idea of a Savage Wu Xing was raised. It’s still in debate and very much depends on how Savage API is received and if we can make it work without losing the flavor of the Wu Xing world. We’ll see.

Part-Time Gods

There was quite a bit of talk about Part-Time Gods all during GenCon 2011! The book sold several copies and we had a lot of Kickstarter backers come up and say hi! And so, when it came to revealing the first sourcebook for the newest of 3EG’s gamelines, it was a no brainer. the book will be called Divine Instruments, detailing many of the tools that a god has at his/her disposal and providing lots of options/expandable rulesets for them. Everything from worshippers to territory to awesome new relics will be explored.

My 4th Gameline

No news on this yet. It is in development, but there are a lot of fire burning at this moment. 2012 is going to be a year of support for the games that exist and i think Third Eye Games will be better for it.

The Publishing Game

Also announced during the panel is how Third Eye Games is beginning the process of publishing other writers’ games. This is a big step for us and I can’t thank the writers who believe is us enough. So without further ado, we have two new games that are currently in the works that we hope to see the light of day in 2012. Look out for more information in 2012 as we get closer to having these game completed.

Storm Battalion, by Brennan Bishop - Fans of Third Eye Games know Brennan as the crazy man that writes about reverse spectral triangles and ninja fights on tightropes. Now he is also working on his own game. Set in Canada, it is an alternate history piece about the French-Indian War if there were also Dimension Storms, living machines and mutants. Its the first military-themed game that will be using the DGS, so we are very excited (especially about the cool new Morale system that we are working on).

Bahati, by Steven Markley – A newcomer to Third Eye Games, Steven (also known as IHAL) has developed a very unique game. Players of Bahati take the role of heroes in a distinctive world based on traditional African folklore. It is going to be the first game under Third Eye Games to have its own system apart from the DGS, but it is one that fits the game perfectly. So far, it is beautiful.

Until next time.

Third Eye Games Joins Bits-and-Mortar

firstoni — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 20:20:05 +0000

For those that don’t know, there is a Bits and Mortar movement among many publishers of indie RPGs where customers that buy the physical books (even if they buy it in their FLGS) also receive a free digital copy of the game as well. This not only eliminates the need for fans to purchase both the print and digital copies separately, but also makes purchasing from local gaming shops more convenient for those that like PDFs as well. Now, Third Eye Games is joining the ranks of the other awesome publishers that are behind this new way of thinking, including Evil Hat and Cubicle 7.

What does this mean for Third Eye Games Fans!

Starting August 1, 2011, physical copies of a Third Eye Games books purchased gains the customer the option to download the PDF for free. PDF copies can still be purchased normally, usually for half the price of the print copy. This doesn’t apply to some items that are PDF-only (Like adventures or Demon packs) or are a limited PoD book (like API Anthology: Volume 1).

3EG Online Store - Our online store is already set up to deliver you this awesome opportunity. You’ll notice that the PDF-only items are marked (PDF).
DriveThruRPG.com – There are currently only a few books on DriveThruRPG that you can buy the print copy (Wu Xing: The Ninja Crusade and API Worldwide: Europe if i recall). These will be set up to give the PDF for free if you buy the physical copy. The other items will likely be added soon, but you can purchase from the 3EG online store until then.
Studio 2 Publishing - We’ll be getting our sales set up there soon, but it will simply mirror the 3EG Online store.
Conventions - Yes! That also means that buying a Third Eye Games book at a con still counts! If you’re attending an event that Eloy Lasanta is physically at, he’ll likely just take down your e-mail and send it to you. If buying it from another convention, you can simply e-mail a picture of yourself with the book and with the receipt and he’ll send the PDF to you.
Your Local Gaming Shop – If you buy from a store that is a member of Bits-and Mortar, the shop owner can burn you a CD, load the PDF to a thumb drive or just e-mail it to you. The point is to make it as easy as possible, right? If your FLGS isn’t a member of Bits-and-Mortar… there’s no reason for it! Send them to http://www.bits-and-mortar.com/ and they can enhance the value of every purchase for all the fans. In that case, you can simply e-mail a picture of yourself with the book and with the receipt and Eloy will send the PDF to you.

Until next time.
