Pre-Launch Campaign happening now at Backer Kit

The Villain Won, Now What?

Afterglow is a post-modern tabletop RPG built on the Dungeon Crawl Classics framework. The Villain won and unleashed their own destructive AI to do one thing and one thing only; destroy. The collapse is happening now, not generations ago.

The world is broken, but it isn’t done yet—and its story is now in your hands.

We’re launching our campaign March 9, 2025 to get all the artwork finalized. As a small local game publisher, we need to show BackerKit there’s real interest before launch day. Click the link below and show your support today - it takes 30 seconds and costs nothing!

Let’s Go!

System Compatibility & Setting Note:

Afterglow is fully compatible with the Dungeon Crawl Classics (DCC) and Mutant Crawl Classics (MCC) game systems from Goodman Games. All rules, classes, and mechanics are designed to integrate seamlessly with DCC and MCC, allowing Judges and players to explore the Shatterlands using the dice, spell tables, and systems they already know and love.

Afterglow is an independent project inspired by the sense of adventure, peril, and weird wonder found in all Goodman Games’ products. If you’re new to DCC or MCC, or just want to explore the original rules and adventures, please visit Goodman Games.
