It's Itch Creators' Day, so time to belatedly promo a small bundle I'm in, with my Roger-Rabbit/Fugitive cross-over The Furgatives included. (It's my favourite medium-form game.)

2023 Day 30: Glitch, a story of the Not
Torture your mind to play character that aren't and shouldn't be. A deep spin-off from Nobilis.

2023 Day 29: The Furgatives
Did you know I've written over 13 RPGs? This is probably my favourite this year and the most toonish game I've seen of late.

2023 Day 28: Werewolf the Apocalypse
90 characters in and an opportunity arose to make a character for the most prolific game in my collection. And a werecheetah at that.

Heya bird and mammal people.
I've had an idea for my last character - has anybody written a game specifically for FATE condensed?
(Otherwise I will see if I can tweak Bulldogs.)

2023 Day 27: Over the Edge
Come to Al Amaja the island that doesn't officially exist and do things that don't officially happen. A game that has everything, if you really want it.

How much do we see these biases in RPG design? (My answer: I don't know, although I have vague percentages in my head from casual observation.)

2023 Day 19: Moriah
This is not a fun game. But I think it's great.

Is that first sentence hyperbole? I am not aware of anything else that comes close, although I'm sure C&C is not the first RPG written by Native Americans nor the first one about them. But the two together as a focussed package? I haven't seen that before.

The Native American scifi game, a future without European influence. Late up because the character took me a lot longer than I was expecting.

2023 Day 17: Strange Hills
Play villainous minions of an evil empire, on a caravan escaping the collapse of said empire. Will you seek redemption or die a scumbag?

2023 Day 16: Never Going Home
The horror of the first world war, but with extra horrifying horrors. Not a particularly funny game, but lots of tragedy.

2023 Day 15: Devil's Run
An RPG of vehicular violence and post-apocalyptic gang politics. And survival. And maybe zombies.
