Also worth highlighting again:

As a reminder, this is still a non-profit project, ALL the money I would make from this will be donated to Vocação, an NGO that helps young people in poor areas of Brazil.

They did a great job with this RPG book, same as the Point & Click book.
Those guys rock.

An expanded version has just been made available, with about 150 pages of additional cRPG goodness.

Too bad there’s no way to update the printed copy (other than buying a new one, once it comes out).

I accidentally wasn’t following updates on the book, I wouldn’t have seen it otherwise so thanks for the information!
