Entering Playtest & Beyond
Hello, everyone. I've made great strides on Little Fears Nightmare Edition. Very happy with the system my co-conspirator and I have cooked up.
The game goes into closed beta testing soon and from there it'll go into "open beta." This is LFNE's first toddling steps into a stranger's arms and I'm filled with as much excitement as anxiety about it. I'm looking forward to the reports.
Remember: For the latest updates, join the Little Fears Yahoo! Group. It's been pretty hopping lately, I'm pleased to say, and we'd love to have even more folks in the treehouse!
You can email me at jason (at) this domain with any questions or comments--or pose them to the group!
If you're in the Madison area, stop on by Madison Games Day on Saturday, May 30th, to check out the game yourself! Caz Granberg and I will each be running Little Fears events so you'll have a chance to play
the game before it's released!
Alright, that's it for now. After LFNE goes into beta testing, I'm going to spend some time on the site. It'll likely be backend stuff so it may not be apparent until we're closer to release.

The Update & The Challenge
For those of you who haven't joined the Little Fears Yahoo! Group, here's where things stand.
I'm in full Little Fears production mode. My schedule is really tight right now—with only one or two days a week to dedicate to projects—
but I'm using that time to work on Little Fears Nightmare Edition. I know I've made promises in the past, and failed to deliver on them, but this time around
I am dedicated to seeing it through. I'm posting weekly updates to the list that detail what I've done that week and I'll also be using the list to get beta testers and
other feedback.
This time, instead of promising or hinting then disappearing to work on the game, I'm pulling back the curtain with regular and honest updates as to its progress.
If you want to see how Little Fears Nightmare Edition progresses, join the group (though I'll also update this page every once in a while).
The LF Fanzine
There's been some discussion on the list about putting together a fan-supported Little Fears fanzine. I think it's a great idea and I will work to support it as best I can.
If you're interested in the details, again, check the group.
The Other LF Projects
I'm working on some other Little Fears-related projects as well. The novel I wrote is still in the chute as well as some other things I won't talk about just yet.
When it's prudent to do so, though, I'll let you all know.
This Site
This site will be getting an overhaul once Nightmare Edition gets further along.
So that's the news so far. You've all been incredibly patient with me and I couldn't ask for better fans. Thank you.
If you have any questions for me, email me at jason(at)this domain. I'll respond as soon as I can.
