Mind's Eye at Gen Con

MIND’S EYE and INSTANT FX are Game on at Gen Con

Every August in Indianapolis, IN, the largest gaming convention of its kind in North America takes place at the Indiana Convention Centre. Gamers of all strips, colours and creeds, descend on Downtown Indy to roll the dice, make their move and play their hand, and MIND’S EYE is in the thick of it.

Synn Studios and Lynnvander Production’s acclaimed fantasy-adventure series is a guest of Gen Con, and along with exhibiting the series, hosting a number of panels, and shopping the Dreamweaver role-playing game, the visual effects team of MIND’S EYE is offering a unique new service of their own: Instant FX.

Instant FX offers fans a rare chance to gain the super-powers and other abilities that they’ve only been able to dream(weave) about. A 10-second film clip is made of the fan performing their selected superpower. The clip is then taken by Synn’s visual effects artists who can create said superpower in as little as 30 minutes. Of course, the more complicated the effect, the more time it takes, but most fans get to walk away with their completed, effects-filled film clip on a stylized MIND’S EYE zip drive.

The options that the effects team are able to is continuing to grow, so look for the Instant FX booth, coming soon to the Chicago Comic Con Wizard World starting August 11th through 14th.

Dreamweaver the Roleplaying Game

Dreamweavers is a pen-and-paper role playing game set in the same world as the Mind’s Eye web series. Players will be able to take on the roles of humans, half-bloods, and dreamweavers who have been caught up in a secret war against powerful supernatural forces.



The percentile-based rules system has finally reached a point where we can start doing in-house playtests. Our playtesters have already used the rules to create several test characters. The characters ended up being very different from each other, but on initial inspection they appeared to be very balanced and seemed to cover everything the players wanted their characters to be able to do.



The next step will be to play many, many, playtest games and see how the rules hold up to actual gameplay.  If you are interested in beta testing this game please contact mindseye@lynnvander.com and lets talk about it.
