Okay, so I'm just throwing ideas at the wall right now to see what sticks. Angels are made up of five Spheres, each of which has an associated Element. These Elements are neither the scientific elements nor the classical elements, but a descriptor that elaborates on what that Sphere is composed of (both literally and… Continue reading Angels, Spheres, and Elements
New game jam, new game!
I've decided to jump in on the Roll to Craft game jam over at itch.io. I'll be posting blog updates here and over on itch as I work on my entry. So far, I have a rough premise in mind: the Creator has disappeared, and you play angels trying to find their own path in… Continue reading New game jam, new game!
An important statement
I believe women. I believe Mandy Morbid, Hannah, Jennifer, Vivka, and the others who have come forward. Their abuser cannot debate, intimidate, or manipulate me into silence. There is no place for abusers among us. #AbuseIsNotAGame #OSR If you don't know what this is in reference to, read this: https://m.facebook.com/amandapatricianagy/posts/10215845527064252 and then this: https://m.facebook.com/VivkaCriesWolf/posts/2478145012257909

It's 81 pages, no art, playtested and edited, but just not what… Continue reading Corona Ashcan Available

Just from a first read-through, here are the highlights: The approaches from Fate Accelerated and the four actions are replaced with… Continue reading New Fate tech for Corona
Corona, a Fate take
I'm trying out some heavy modifications to Fate to see if it works as a core system for Corona. Those modifications include: adding another axis of action in the form of theaters of operation: you may act on the Personal, Tactical, Operational, or Strategic level with your skills incorporating the "dark vs. light dice" mechanic… Continue reading Corona, a Fate take
A mostly inconsequential name change
It's been brought to my attention that a game called Spectrum has been released, and in the interest of not causing any confusion, I've renamed my open-source game system to Spectra. It's been a dormant project for years, but I think I want to revive it, and this would head off any potential miscommunication. The… Continue reading A mostly inconsequential name change
