GoFundMe for co-author of Mutant Future

Yikes, the poor guy lost his wife and daughter. I can't imagine there is anything worse in life that can happen to you than that.

Anyway, he needs help with expenses and the Goblinoid Games guy set up a GoFundMe with his (and other some companies like Barrel Rider Games, Faster Monkey, Task Boy Games, Mithgarr, Lesser Gnome) products.

Dreams of Ruin released early (for free)

The old school sourcebook from the author of Exalted was slated to be freely released on May 15th, but perhaps because of the lackluster Kickstarter, it's been released a few days early.

Androids, Aliens, and Aberrations Review

Although I never played Gamma World as much as D&D as a kid, some of my favorite gaming memories were of a game of it set in a theme park. While it seems like every incarnation of old school D&D has been retro-cloned over and over, there's really only one Gamma World retro-clone, Mutant Future. Fortunately, it's very well done, if not terribly well supported by material (third or first party). Still, a few products for it come out, and this one, Androids, Aliens, and Aberrations is essentially a bunch of new player races. There is also some support for Labyrinth Lord, but it's mostly a Mutant Future product.

The new races are mostly things from pop culture. The Ender and the E9000 are basically the Terminator and the T-1000 from the Terminator movies and the Evolved human which is the big headed sort often found in science fiction (that one Planet of the Apes movie where they blew up the world). There is the Grey alien from UFO lore, a Reptoid, and a Serpent Noble from the weird conspiracies of David Icke (where the world is ruled by lizard people). Lastly there are three races inspired by the Fallout series, the most interesting of which is the "Rotter", essentially a ghoul, a person who looks like they are dead but are not. Not goths, but walking, semi-rotten corpses.
