Ultimate GM Screen - Production Update
We just got this video from our production facility - it shows off the rotating initiative trackers in action! A feature we planned early on but couldn't include in the original prototype. We’re excited to confirm that this feature is happening, and we think it makes the GM Screen even cooler and more useful at the table.


We want to take a moment to talk about someone incredibly important to the history of Ultimate Toolbox:

"I had the pleasure of meeting Jeff Ibach online in the early days of 3rd Edition. I had just organized and published d20 Evil. He was not impressed, and his review said as much.

I reached out to him anyway. Through emails and conversations, we slowly realized we loved gaming at about the same degree. He gave incredible notes - thoughtful, honest, and always focused on making the book better.

And I immediately planned to ruin his gaming career.

Except I didn't. I hired him instead.

Jeff went on to write across nearly everything I worked on. Small sections at first... and then came Toolbox and Ultimate Toolbox. Books that, in truth, Jeff largely wrote, while Dawn and I assisted - organizing charts, shaping structure, and helping guide the final form.

Sadly, Jess passed away on November 8, 2020. He was 53. Dawn called me that morning. I never got to game with him again. Never got to say thank you one more time.

That's why Dawn and I chose to remove our names from the new edition. We'd rather his book honor a man who loved gaming deeply and dedicated himself to making this hobby better.

These books were his babies."
- Jim Pinto, written late 2025

This new edition exists because of Jeff. We're proud to carry his work forward and ensure his contribution is known and remembered.

Hey everyone!

We just crossed 50K and unlocked our first stretch goal! Thank you so much for the support. All Ultimate GM Screens will now include three dry erase markers!


🏰 Next Stretch Goal: Additional Dungeon Tiles
When we reach 60K, we'll expand the dungeon tile set invluded with the GM Screen.

Thank you again for the incredible momentum so far - we can’t wait to see what tables you create, and we’ll keep the stretch goals rolling! 🎲🧰 

Hey everyone!

We have officially funded in under an hour - thank you so much for the incredible support!

Now that we’re rolling, let’s jump into a question we’ve already seen a few times:

About the dungeon tiles
Here’s a preview image of the modular dungeon tile set included in the campaign.


The final product will contain
✔ Four 12" x 12" tiles
✔ Twenty-four 6" x 6" tiles
✔ Sixteen 3" x 6" tiles

In addition to those pieces, the box top and bottom will feature printed squares on both the inside and outside.
That means you can use the box itself as a raised platform, a room with four walls, or a quick drop-in location during play.
All together, you get 2,016 square inches of gaming tiles, and every piece is double-sided, dry-erase and wet-erase friendly.

The Ultimate GM Screen
 If you’ve scrolled the campaign page, you’ve likely spotted the GM Screen demo - here’s a quick summary of the features it highlights:

Thank you again for such a strong start!
