The funding period ending for the designer edition of Ogre I previously mentioned.

The total amount raised:

I would imagine that Steve is a very happy camper right now, especially considering that the original goal was $20,000…

That’s One Hell of a Kick

Back when I moved into my house in 2004, Steve Jackson was one of the people helping tote those hundreds of boxes of books. I used to contribute pieces to The Space Gamer, and helped playtest Shockwave, and we bumped into each other at various SF events around Austin. He also generously agreed to proof read Nova Express back when it was a going concern, and did an excellent job.

Steve decided to go the Kickstarter route to fund the “Designer Edition” of Ogre. His initial funding goal was $20,000. Actual amount pulled in? As of this writing, $422,719 (and no doubt it will have gone up by the time you click that link).

Congrats Steve!
