Community Shadowrun: Hong Kong Codex Fundraiser is Officially Live

Tags: Harebrained Schemes; Shadowrun: Hong Kong

After some unfortunate but necessary delays, it is finally time to officially announce the Codexian Fundraiser for Harebrained Schemes' Studios Shadowrun: Hong Kong! Thanks to HBS, Codex can become a proud supporter of the latest Shadowrun cRPG as well as get the following awesome stuff:

1. A key for Shadowrun: Hong Kong campaign, once available, for anyone that contributes $15 or higher to the fundraiser.
2. 5 Codex-specific Shadowlands BBS entries in-game, with Codex being able to design said entries ourselves (within reason/setting boundaries, of course).
3. A nod to the Codex in the BBS in the upcoming Shadowrun novel.
4. Collectible figurines (for a Codexian raffle or some such)
5. An official Synth-leather Messenger Bag (again, for a raffle or something similar)
6. Consultation with Jordan Weisman: Our staff (or some lucky, non-demented person) will have a chance to have a 2-hour conversation with Jordan Weisman, either in person in Seattle, or by Skype, on any number of relevant topics like game design, systems like Battletech, Shadowrun and Golem Arcana and so on.
7. Obvious credits entry, if there's a KS backer credit crawl.
8. A sense of smug superiority over other RPG websites that couldn't be arsed arranging fundraisers. Unless we can't collect the money, in which case it's like losing in a pissing contest where the competition never showed up. And ruining those pants.

This is a pretty awesome offer, and all we need is collect $3000+ for the team. For an affluent and active community like the Codex, this should be a pretty easy goal to reach (and top).

Cool Codexian Dollars are accepted HERE.

The key will also unlock that mini-campaign for free later on when it gets made, right?

Fuck yeah!

I'll check. It should, though.

I'd assume that they're not interested in handing out a new batch of keys for the mini-campaign, so if they're smart, they'll give out keys for some kind of edition of the game that automatically adds the mini-campaign to your game library when it's released.

If they do have to hand out new keys though, we might or might not have a problem.

If it's just a set of keys (like a DLC key for Steam), and they're okay with sending them out, shouldn't be too big a deal.

I make minimum wage, am a severe alcoholic, and get zero welfare from the Kwa. Yet, I will be donating $50 to the cause. Please, for the love of all that is decent, be at least as generous as my poor ass.

Reserved for later use. I'm going to put something witty and edgy here later. Or maybe sell this post. We'll see.

 

[Minttunator]

You are a scholar and a gentleman, Angthoron!

 

[GarfunkeL]

Excellent!

$3,000 or $2,500?

Moved my $15 to codex leaving just a token $1 at the KS.

[LeStryfe79]

We'll fucking make it. I have faith.

Might do the same. Pretty cool of HBS to offer keys to all $15 pledges here.

 

[mindx2]

Well, front page news has helped spark a small surge in donations I see...

1. A key for Shadowrun: Hong Kong campaign, once available, for anyone that contributes $15 or higher to the fundraiser.

Steam, GOG, or both, as was the case with SRR?

Basically, will the Codexians be treated the same as normal backers in that regard?

My guess is that it'll be same as with SRR. I will check, of course.

$3,000 or $2,500?

3K. I can't edit the fundraiser text, waiting for DU or Bee to do that.

I'll add more once I get my next pay, too.

Raised my pledge to just over 50$ because of your inspirational post!

For the love of all that is decent.

Ah well, pledged both places. Can never have to many Shadowrun keys as gifts
